-## Step 2 - build one step, review, iterate, checkpoint (Strict TDD)
-
-Work through the spec's build steps in order, one at a time. For each step:
-
-1. **Strict TDD Cycle (for logic & behavior changes)**:
-   - **🔴 RED**: Write the unit test first in the relevant test file. Execute the test command and show the failing assertion output.
-   - **🟢 GREEN**: Implement only the minimal code in the source file necessary to make the test pass. Re-run test and show passing output.
-   - **🔵 REFACTOR**: Refactor and format cleanly, verifying that 100% of tests remain green.
-   - *Code Reversion Rule*: If production code is written without a prior test for behavior changes, revert it and write the test first.
-
-   **⚖️ The Iron Law**: `NO PRODUCTION CODE WITHOUT A FAILING TEST FIRST` — Apply to behavior changes according to the spec's test decision. If code came first, revert only your own work for that step and restart from the test, preserving the user's existing work.
-
-   **Red-Phase Verification (confirm all three before GREEN):**
-   - The test actually fails, rather than encountering a syntax error
-   - The error message identifies missing behavior, rather than invalid configuration
-   - The failure reflects the behavior under test, rather than a bug in the test itself
-
-   **Green-Phase Discipline**: Write the minimum code needed to pass the test; add only the options/features it requires (YAGNI constraint).
-
-   > 📖 For anti-patterns and Bad vs Good examples, read [`tdd-anti-patterns.md`](tdd-anti-patterns.md).
-
-2. Implement just that step: the smallest change that satisfies its "done when."
-3. Show the **diff**, not whole files.
-4. **Explain it, and prove it.** Give a short summary: what the step delivered,
-   one line per changed file on what it does and why, then confirm the step's
-   "done when" is met with empirical evidence (test pass output, build output, or screenshot). This summary is the comprehension gate, so keep it concrete, not
-   vague. Include a short **How to try it** note when the step has a manual
-   path: the command, URL, click, endpoint, or output the user can check.
-5. **Verify the step.** If `AGENTS.md` declares a `Verify` command, run that exact
-   command as the automated gate. It is only an umbrella for checks the project
-   actually has, so do not invent tests or other checks to satisfy it. If no
-   `Verify` command exists, run the documented build command and the test command
-   when the project declares one. A step that adds logic must ship a passing test
-   in the same diff when the test gate is on, and the suite must be green before
-   the step is approved (see the Testing gate in `coding-standards.md`). UI and
-   integration-only steps ride on screenshot plus build evidence. Run a focused
-   test separately when it gives faster feedback, then use `Verify` as the final
-   automated gate. For UI or integration done-whens, prefer Playwright when it is
-   already installed or declared in `AGENTS.md`; do not add it silently for an
-   unrelated feature. Create focused test files next to the source they cover,
-   per `coding-standards.md`. Never install a runner mid-step unless the current
-   spec is explicitly the unit-testing setup itself (for example `/fix "add unit
-   testing"`). If a step surfaces non-trivial logic the spec did not foresee, add
-   a focused test then, or note why not. When a step's done-when is behavioral (a
-   click, a download, or a flow across screens), run `/check` to prove it against
-   the running app rather than eyeballing it.
-5. **Iterate until it works.** If it fails or the user wants changes, revise the
-   step (re-prompt or hand-edit the code), show the updated diff, and re-test.
-   Repeat until it works and the user approves. Nothing is committed until the
-   user is happy with the step.
-6. **Mark it done, then prompt to move on.** Once the step is approved, check that
-   step off (`- [x]`) in `devflow/context/{xxx-slug}/spec.md` so progress survives a context
-   clear. If the step repaired a finding tracked in
-   `devflow/context/{xxx-slug}/findings.md`, set that finding's status to `fixed` now too
-   and note the repair in its **Resolution** line. Never set `closed`: a repair
-   is re-reviewed by `/audit` before it clears, because a fix can introduce a
-   worse defect than the one it removed. Then offer a short choice, noting that checkpoints are optional since
-   `/complete` makes the real feature-level commit. Use the current tool's short
-   user-input prompt when available; when you've just produced a long block to
-   read (a deep explanation, a big
-   walk-through), ask in plain text instead, so the prompt doesn't cover what the
-   user is still reading:
-   - **Continue** (default) - roll into the next step without committing.
-   - **Commit checkpoint** - commit just this step on the branch with a
-     conventional message (a cheap rollback point).
-   - **Walk me through it** - give a deeper, line-level explanation of the new or
-     changed code (why this approach, what each part does, any gotchas), then
-     re-ask this checkpoint prompt. A loop-back, not a terminal choice.
-   - **Stop here** - pause the loop so the user can review or come back later.
-
-   On **Continue** or after **Commit checkpoint**, go to the next step. On **Walk
-   me through it**, explain in depth and then re-ask this prompt in plain text (the
-   explanation is long, so a modal would cover it). On **Stop here**, stop and say
-   where things stand: the branch is intact; run `/implement` again to resume, or
-   `/complete` to wrap up what's built so far.
-
-### Ticket-Driven TDD Execution (when working from a Ticket)
-
-When executing a tracer-bullet ticket (via `--ticket` or auto-frontier):
-1. **Extract Scope**: Read *What to build* and *Acceptance criteria* checklist (`- [ ]`) from the active ticket file.
-2. **Strict TDD Cycle per Criterion**:
-   - **🔴 RED**: Write the unit/integration test for the criterion first at the agreed seam. Execute the test command and verify the expected failing assertion.
-   - **🟢 GREEN**: Implement only the minimal code in the source file necessary to make the test pass. Re-run test and show passing output.
-   - **🔵 REFACTOR**: Refactor and format cleanly, verifying that 100% of tests remain green.
-3. **Verify Gate**: Run the project's Verify command (`npm run check` or documented test suite) to ensure whole-system health before concluding the ticket.
-4. **Bidirectional State Sync**:
-   - Mark each completed criterion `- [x]` in the ticket file.
-   - Once all criteria in the ticket pass, update the ticket status to `**Status:** done` (or `Status: done`).
-   - Mirror the completed work, status, and diff evidence into `devflow/context/{xxx-slug}/spec.md` (under `## 📋 3. Execution Plan & TDD Checklist` and `## ⚡ 4. Implementation Log & Evidence`) so the Living Spec remains the authoritative single source of truth for `/check`, `/audit`, and `/complete`.
-
-Never batch the whole thing into one diff. If a step's diff is too big to read,
-split it. The documented `Verify` command, or the fallback build and tests, must
-pass before any commit.
+## Step 2 - implement and verify
+
+Work in small reviewable diffs, keeping progress in the selected spec.
+
+1. For logic or behavior changes with the test gate on, use Red-Green-Refactor: write a focused failing test, confirm the assertion fails for the missing behavior, implement the smallest change, then refactor with affected tests green. Preserve the user's existing work. Consult [TDD anti-patterns](tdd-anti-patterns.md) when test design needs it.
+   - **Proportional Engineering**: Add an abstraction, dependency, service, configuration surface, compatibility layer, or security mechanism only when the approved spec or an established repository requirement needs it now. Prefer existing code, standard library, and native platform features.
+2. Match the step's done-when and run focused checks. Documentation or formatting-only edits use structural checks and review; they do not require artificial unit tests. Capture relevant runtime or browser proof for behavioral criteria, following the selected Check policy.
+3. Fix failures caused by the change and rerun affected checks without requesting authorization again. Broaden verification when dependencies, failures, or risk justify it.
+4. Record the diff summary and evidence. Mark a step complete once its done-when passes and any configured per-step review has been approved. A repaired finding becomes `fixed` with resolution evidence; only a subsequent audit can close it. Apply the review cadence above before proceeding.
+
+Run a proportionality check before final verification: every new abstraction, dependency, service, configuration surface, compatibility layer, and security mechanism must trace to the approved spec or an established repository requirement. Remove speculative machinery this work added without weakening real trust-boundary validation, data-loss prevention, accessibility, or configured verification.
+
+At the final handoff, run the exact documented Verify command and all required gates. If there is no Verify command, use the project's declared build and test commands. Reuse a passing result for unchanged inputs within this pass; rerun affected gates after subsequent edits. Do not add tests or tools just to inflate the verification matrix.
+
+### Ticket execution
+
+When a ticket is selected, use its acceptance criteria as the steps above. Mark completed criteria in the ticket, mark it `done` after its criteria and required verification pass, and mirror status and evidence into the run's spec. A ticket handoff runs required gates once; criteria within the ticket use focused checks. A request to finish the whole run continues through the dependency frontier until the authorized scope is verified.

+Reuse instructions already loaded. Read relevant sections, rather than every document before every edit:
+
+- `devflow/config.json` for workflow policy and quality-gate decisions.
+- `devflow/context/project-overview.md` for project purpose, architecture, and cross-module boundaries.
+- `devflow/context/coding-standards.md` for conventions affecting changed code.
+- `devflow/context/ai-interaction.md` for workflow interaction and review cadence.
+- `devflow/context/glossary.md` when domain terminology matters.
+- `devflow/context/{xxx-slug}/` for the selected run's spec, stage, findings, and review receipt.
+
+## Task intent and authorization
+
+Explicit user scope takes precedence over skill guidance, within runtime permissions and safety constraints. A request to draft a spec ends at the spec; a request to implement and verify continues through those authorized steps. A skill transition is not a new approval requirement. Ask when a material decision or authorization is missing, reuse existing authorization, and identify the exact instruction if it requires a pause. Preserve separate authorization for commit, merge, push, and deployment.
+
+Use focused checks during edits, and run the documented required gates before handoff. Repeat passing checks only after relevant changes, failures, or unresolved concerns. Apply TDD to logic and behavior changes; documentation-only edits need appropriate structural or review evidence.
+
+## Proportional engineering
+
+Build for established requirements, not hypothetical scale, threats, or future flexibility. Reuse existing code, the standard library, native platform features, and installed dependencies before adding machinery.
+
+- Unknown scale or extensibility defaults to the smaller reversible design. Do not infer enterprise, multi-tenant, hostile-user, or compliance requirements.
+- Derive trust and data-integrity boundaries from actual reachability: untrusted input, auth/session/ownership, shared persisted data, destructive operations, payments, secrets, and sensitive data.
+- Ask only when an unknown materially changes behavior, architecture, persisted data, interoperability, a real security boundary, or cost. Otherwise choose the simplest repository-native implementation.
+- Add an abstraction, dependency, service, configuration surface, compatibility layer, or security mechanism only for a current requirement.
+- Simplicity never removes real trust-boundary validation, data-loss prevention, accessibility, explicit security requirements, configured tests, or project rules.
+- Stack-specific template standards apply only when the project uses that stack.
