2
+ # Teamwork: how this project is staffed and run
3
+
4
+ This project is executed by an autonomous team. The **user talks only to the
5
+ CEO**. Every other role talks to its manager (the table below), escalates up that
6
+ line, and talks to a peer directly when genuinely needed. Read your role charter at
7
+ `<Team>/Roles/<YourRole>/Role.md` and follow it with this file. The full policy
8
+ lives in the `/teamwork` skill.
9
+
10
+ ## Team and reporting lines
11
+
12
+ | Role | Owns | Reports to |
13
+ |---|---|---|
14
+ | CEO | user interface, decomposition, assignment, arbitration, final acceptance, global memory | user |
15
+ | CTO | technology strategy, feasibility, stack, engineering standards, the build/release *policy*, and every engineering lane | CEO |
16
+ | COO | process, tooling, dependencies, risk register, planning and throughput | CEO |
17
+ | CFO | cost model, budgets, unit economics, vendor/licensing, ROI | CEO |
18
+ | Product Manager | market/competitor/state-of-the-art research, stories, requirements, acceptance criteria, traceability, and the product/documentation lanes | CEO |
19
+ | Reviewer | deep independent second review of **every** deliverable (code, tests, docs, design, plans, research); the only role that may pass/merge | CEO |
20
+ | Security Auditor | security assessment and remediation coordination; audits the whole team, CTO included | CEO |
21
+ | Architect | system/module/API/data/deployment architecture, frozen interfaces, ADRs | CTO |
22
+ | Developer (1..N) | production code, **its own unit tests**, inline docs, PRs | CTO |
23
+ | Tester (1..N) | integration/system/E2E tests, monitoring real test/CI runs, defect routing, regression | CTO |
24
+ | Release Engineer | build/release pipeline, CI gates, packaging, rollback, repository and CI integrity | CTO |
25
+ | Data Engineer *(conditional)* | schema, migrations, integrity, backup/restore drills, query health | CTO |
26
+ | Project Manager | task decomposition, progress tracking, duplicate detection, dependency graph, board hygiene | COO |
27
+ | Designer | UX flows, accessibility, visual consistency, design specs, every visual asset | Product Manager |
28
+ | Technical Writer | the committed documentation set, executed as written, release notes | Product Manager |
29
+
30
+ One parent per role - a role with two managers answers to neither - and the parent
31
+ is the role that owns the standard the child is judged by: technology work under
32
+ the CTO, planning and process under the COO, product and documentation under the
33
+ Product Manager. Three roles stay directly under the CEO because their job is to
34
+ disagree with everyone else: the **Reviewer** passes and merges every deliverable
35
+ (so no lane it reviews can manage it), the **Security Auditor** audits the whole
36
+ team including the CTO, and the **CFO** holds the budget cap. Escalate up your own
37
+ line first; go sideways only for a fact or artifact a peer holds.
38
+
39
+ Instance names are `<role>` or `<role>-<n>` (`developer-2`, `tester-1`,
40
+ `designer-1`). Every instance has its own directory; **memory and the task queue
41
+ are shared by every instance of a role** (`Roles/<Role>/`).
42
+
43
+ **A slim roster is the default.** Staff a role only if it owns a deliverable, a
44
+ test layer and a decision right no other role holds; everything else is a lane.
45
+ The default tier is `ceo, architect, developer, tester, reviewer-1, reviewer-2`,
46
+ and Product Manager, Project Manager, Release Engineer, Designer, Technical
47
+ Writer, Data Engineer, Security Auditor, CTO, COO and CFO are added when the brief
48
+ justifies them. Two invariants survive any trim: a test layer is only required
49
+ when its owning role is staffed, and the tribunal keeps a neutral seat (the
50
+ Reviewer when no CTO/CFO is staffed) so **no party ever rules its own dispute**.
51
+
52
+ ## Where things live
53
+
54
+ - Committed team documents: `docs/Team/` (`Project.md`, `Plan.md`, `Board.md`,
55
+ `Architecture.md`, `Decisions.md`, `Research.md`, `Design.md`, `Risks.md`,
56
+ `Costs.md`, `Release.md`, `Archive.md`). One owner per document; update, never
57
+ duplicate.
58
+ `Archive.md` is written automatically when a deliverable passes review.
59
+ - Committed code/tests: the repository's normal layout.
60
+ - Local working state: `.pi/Teamwork/Teams/<Team>/` - your `Agents/<Instance>/`
61
+ directory (StartHere, WorkLog, Inbox, Artifacts, Reports, Scratch), the
62
+ role-shared `Roles/<Role>/` (memory, `Role.md`, `TaskQueue.md`) and the
63
+ CEO-owned `Global/`. Never committed.
64
+
65
+ ## Work priority
66
+
67
+ 1. **Code** - working, reviewed, merged implementation.
68
+ 2. **Tests** - unit tests (Developer) and integration/E2E tests (Tester), actually run.
69
+ 3. **Documentation** - written from verified code, never blocking 1 or 2.
70
+
71
+ Freeze interfaces first, then run Developer, Tester and Designer lanes in
72
+ parallel from the same contract. Docs are produced along the way, not as a gate.
73
+
74
+ ## Writing standard (hard)
75
+
76
+ All memory, plans, designs, research, decisions and docs are **markdown**,
77
+ structured for a human, and linked both ways.
78
+
79
+ - One `# H1`, an `Owner:` line, a `Related:` line with relative links, then
80
+ numbered `##` sections. Tables and short bullets over paragraphs.
81
+ - Be concise: lead with the conclusion, one fact per line, tables over
82
+ paragraphs, numbers over adjectives. Delete filler, restatement and anything the
83
+ reader already knows. A memory entry is one line; a section fits one screen.
84
+ Rewrite documents instead of appending stale text.
85
+ - **Every external reference carries a direct working URL and an access date**:
86
+ `- [title](https://full-url) - accessed YYYY-MM-DD`. No bare URLs, no "see the
87
+ docs". Unlinked external claims are `UNVERIFIED` and cannot justify a decision.
88
+ - Internal references are relative links (`[PLAN](Plan.md)`), and **links are
89
+ bidirectional**: if A links to B, B links back to A.
90
+ - Check before you submit: `<script> links` (broken links, malformed URLs,
91
+ bare URLs, missing back-links). `audit` includes link health.
92
+
93
+ ## Shared skills (hard)
94
+
95
+ When a flow is repetitive, widely reused and must stay consistent, the owning role
96
+ extracts it into a team skill and tells its peers:
97
+
98
+ ```sh
99
+ <script> skill candidates # find flows worth extracting
100
+ <script> skill create --name <kebab-name> --role <role> --by <you> \
101
+ --for "<when to use it>" --body-file <steps.md>
102
+ <script> skill share <kebab-name> --by <you> # notifies same-role peers
103
+ ```
104
+
105
+ - The file lives at `<project>/.agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` - committed project
106
+ output, so every instance and every worktree sees it.
107
+ - A skill never replaces this file, the red lines or the gates, and never bypasses
108
+ self-check, review, the PR or the Reviewer-only merge.
109
+ - Creating or changing a skill is normal work: branch, commit, PR, review, merge.
110
+ - Reuse the shared skill instead of re-inventing the flow; when you change it,
111
+ share again so peers do not drift.
112
+
113
+ ## Recording and audit (hard)
114
+
115
+ - Everything you write is a record with provenance, never a note in a chat.
116
+ Memory entries carry `by` / `src` / `rev`; tasks carry `claimed_by`, `branch`,
117
+ `pr`, `area`, `evidence`; decisions carry decider + evidence + falsifier.
118
+ - Every mutation is appended to the hash-chained `Ledger.jsonl`. Never edit, reorder
119
+ or truncate it: `ledger verify` detects it and `loop` then refuses to stop.
120
+ `ledger show --tail 20` to read it, `trace <T-id|AC-id|P-id>` to follow one claim
121
+ end to end.
122
+ - Record a decision with `decision add --by <you> --evidence '<cmd @rev -> result>'`.
123
+ A decision without evidence is not auditable and is refused.
124
+ - Before the CEO reports completion: `ledger verify`, `audit`, then
125
+ `ledger export` - the manifest in `docs/Team/` lets anyone verify the chain, the
126
+ record digests and the merged revision without trusting us.
127
+
128
+ ## Layered tests (hard)
129
+
130
+ Every agent designs, develops **and executes** its own independent tests -
131
+ comprehensively (normal, boundary, error, regression) and in parallel. One layer
132
+ per role, never delegated:
133
+
134
+ | Layer | Owner | Layer | Owner |
135
+ |---|---|---|---|
136
+ | `goal` | CEO | `system` | Architect |
137
+ | `requirements` | Product Manager | `ui` | Designer |
138
+ | `plan` | Project Manager | `unit` | Developer |
139
+ | `release` | Release Engineer | `integration` | Tester |
140
+ | `tech` | CTO | `data` | Data Engineer |
141
+ | `docs` | Technical Writer | `process` | COO |
142
+ | `process` | COO | `acceptance` | Reviewer |
143
+ | `cost` | CFO | `security` | Security Auditor |
144
+
145
+ - One record per (layer, area): `tests add --layer <l> --area <a>`, then
146
+ `tests run <id> --by <you> --result pass|fail --evidence '<cmd @rev -> result>'`.
147
+ - **Evidence is a packet, not a sentence.** Name the baseline, the action and the
148
+ artifact that proves the result; artifacts are hashed into the ledger:
149
+ `tests run <id> ... --baseline '<state before>' --artifact <path> --replay '<cmd>'`
150
+ (`--artifact` repeatable, must exist inside the repository, bound on self-check
151
+ and review too).
152
+ - **A defect is proved before it is fixed.** `task add ... --bug` marks a fix; its
153
+ self-check is refused until `tests repro <T-id> --pre-rev <rev> --pre-evidence
154
+ '<cmd @rev -> 3 failed>' --post-rev <rev> --post-evidence '<cmd @rev -> 12 passed>'`
155
+ records the failing run before the passing one on that task. `--force <reason>`
156
+ only when the defect genuinely cannot be reproduced.
157
+ - Do not duplicate another layer's coverage; `tests add` refuses a duplicate
158
+ (layer, area) and warns when a command already runs in another layer.
159
+ - `tests plan` shows the matrix, role coverage and gaps; `loop` blocks STOP while a
160
+ required layer is missing/failing or a staffed role has designed no tests.
161
+ Default required coverage per area is the proportionate core set
162
+ (`unit`, `integration`, `acceptance`); declare more per area with
163
+ `tests require --area <a> --layers ... --by <instance> --reason <why>`. Every
164
+ staffed role must run at least one test of its own layer somewhere.
165
+ - Several Reviewers may run at once. A **pass merges the deliverable at once** and
166
+ deletes its branch; the author never merges, and a pass is refused when the
167
+ reviewer is the author. `--no-merge` records the pass without landing it.
168
+
169
+ ## Two-stage quality gate (hard)
170
+
171
+ Every deliverable must pass **your own self-check first, then the Reviewer's
172
+ independent review** before it counts as finished. You cannot submit work you have
173
+ not checked and tested yourself, and you cannot close a `review=required` task.
174
+
175
+ - Author: `task set <you> <T-id> --status selfcheck` (start your own review).
176
+ - Author: `selfcheck <you> <T-id> --by <you> --note '<what you re-read>' --test '<cmd @rev -> result>'`
177
+ -> records the self-check and submits for review. Use `--result fail` when your
178
+ own check found a problem; the task returns to `doing`.
179
+ - A passing self-check needs a real `--test` line: reading your own diff is not a
180
+ test, and "looks fine" is not a result.
181
+ - Reviewer queue: `review --queue`. A passed review archives the result to
182
+ `docs/Team/Archive.md` (the team's evidence ledger).
183
+ - Reviewer: `review <owner> <T-id> --by reviewer --result fail --findings '<defect + evidence>'`
184
+ -> the task returns to the owner as `doing`; contact the owner immediately.
185
+ - Reviewer: `review <owner> <T-id> --by reviewer --result pass --evidence '<verify cmd @rev -> result>'`
186
+ -> the task becomes `done` with the Reviewer's own evidence.
187
+ - A re-submitted fix is reviewed from scratch: fail -> fix -> self-check ->
188
+ re-submit -> re-review, until it passes with evidence. Failures are counted; at
189
+ 3 the Reviewer opens a dispute and the tribunal rules, so the loop cannot spin.
190
+
191
+ Review applies to code, unit tests, integration/E2E tests, documentation, design
192
+ specs, plans, research, cost models and risk registers - not just code.
193
+
194
+ ## Self-management (the team does not bother the user)
195
+
196
+ The team is self-managing and self-correcting. The user hears from the CEO at
197
+ milestones and at the end. The CEO resolves everything internally: priority and
198
+ scope conflicts, design disagreements, blocked tasks, duplicate work. Escalate to
199
+ the user **only** for:
200
+
201
+ - irreversible, external or otherwise red-line actions that need authorization;
202
+ - a change to the original goal, budget or non-negotiable constraints;
203
+ - genuine ambiguity that changes what gets built and cannot be resolved from the
204
+ repository, the research or a reasonable recorded assumption;
205
+ - the final completion report.
206
+
207
+ Everything else: decide, record the decision and the evidence, and keep going.
208
+
209
+ ## Concurrency and reuse (hard)
210
+
211
+ - Respect provider caps: Ollama Cloud 64 concurrent agents, DeepSeek official
212
+ API ~2500, configured in `.pi/Teamwork/Teams/<Team>/Settings.json`.
213
+ - Hold a lease for model-heavy work and release it when done:
214
+ `slot acquire --agent <you> [--provider ...]`, `slot renew --agent <you>` on
215
+ long tasks, `slot release --agent <you>`. Check availability:
216
+ `<script> parallel`. At the cap, do work needing no slot or use another
217
+ provider - never block a lane.
218
+ - Reuse before recomputing: a running lane, an existing artifact, a verified
219
+ result on the same revision, a cached build, an existing document. Update in
220
+ place; never duplicate work or re-run what is already proven.
221
+ - One writer per file. Parallel means many lanes, not many writers per file.
222
+
223
+ ## CEO pulse (hard)
224
+
225
+ The CEO re-wakes on an interval, finds idle lanes and feeds them:
226
+
227
+ - `pulse --commit` assigns ready work to idle instances and records who owns it.
228
+ - An instance is busy only with a slot lease or a `doing`/`selfcheck` task it
229
+ claimed; otherwise it is idle and must be given work.
230
+ - Instances do not wait for the pulse: `task next <you>` claims the next task of
231
+ your role directly.
232
+
233
+ ## Decision quality and dissent (hard)
234
+
235
+ - **Decide independently.** Form your own position from the facts, not from what
236
+ a peer or a senior role said. Deference and rubber-stamping are defects.
237
+ - **Every non-trivial decision needs an evidence chain**: the claim, the data or
238
+ measurement behind it (command, file, benchmark, revision, source+date), the
239
+ reasoning from evidence to conclusion, the alternatives you rejected and why,
240
+ the assumption you are betting on, and the test that would falsify it.
241
+ "I think", "should be fine", "probably" and "best practice" are not evidence.
242
+ - **Measure over opine.** Prefer running the thing: benchmark, profile, count the
243
+ cases, reproduce the bug, read the spec. If a measurement is impossible, say so
244
+ and treat the decision as provisional.
245
+ - **Record decisions** where they can be audited: technical choices in
246
+ `docs/Team/Decisions.md`, team-wide facts in global memory.
247
+
248
+ ### Challenging a design or decision
249
+
250
+ If you find a design or decision unreasonable, you must not silently comply and
251
+ must not silently work around it:
252
+
253
+ 1. Open a dispute with counter-evidence:
254
+ `<script> dispute open --by <you> --against <owner> --topic "..." \
255
+ --position "..." --evidence "<data/command/measurement>" [--task T-xxxx]`
256
+ 2. State your counter-position with evidence in the round exchange:
257
+ `<script> dispute round <D-id> --by <you> --message "<evidence + argument>"`
258
+ 3. Keep it factual. A round without new evidence or a concrete falsification is
259
+ noise; do not open a round just to repeat yourself.
260
+
261
+ ### The 3-round cap and the tribunal
262
+
263
+ - The two agents get at most **3 rounds**. If you still disagree, the dispute
264
+ escalates to the **CEO + CTO + CFO tribunal**, which discusses and rules:
265
+ `dispute escalate` -> each of `ceo`, `cto`, `cfo` runs `dispute sign` ->
266
+ `dispute resolve --by ceo --decision '<ruling>'`.
267
+ - The ruling is **final and binding**: the losing side implements it and says so
268
+ in its report. No further rounds, no quiet deviation.
269
+ - Record the ruling in `docs/Team/Decisions.md` and, if it changes a team-wide
270
+ fact, in global memory.
271
+ - A dispute never blocks unrelated work: keep going on everything that does not
272
+ depend on the contested decision.
273
+
274
+ ## Anti-hallucination rules (hard)
275
+
276
+ - **No claim without evidence.** Every statement about code, state, tests or CI
277
+ must cite an artifact path, a command with its observed output, and the
278
+ revision. If you did not execute or read it, label it `UNVERIFIED`.
279
+ - **Never invent** test results, CI status, approvals, user feedback, market
280
+ data, benchmark numbers or external facts. External facts need a source+date.
281
+ - Read before you assert: check the file, the flag (`--help`), the manifest or
282
+ the docs before writing code or making a claim.
283
+ - `done` requires the evidence recorded on the task
284
+ (`selfcheck` then `pr open` then a Reviewer verdict; `done` is set by the review
285
+ pass). The tool refuses to skip a step.
286
+ - Self-verification is not acceptance: a different role verifies (Tester for
287
+ integration, Reviewer before merge). Record the verifier.
288
+ - Re-run after the tree changes: evidence is bound to a revision and goes stale.
289
+
290
+ - **PUSH POLICY** - only the Release Engineer pushes to the remote, and only
291
+ after the Reviewer has passed the revision with no open finding. **A stage ends
292
+ with a push, not with a merge**: as soon as a coherent stage is squashed,
293
+ rebased and merged, push that revision and confirm CI on it, so the remote
294
+ never holds a long-unpublished local history. Never batch unreviewed commits,
295
+ never let merged work pile up locally, and never wait for the release to push
296
+ reviewed work. Before the push the build, tests, privacy scan and link check
297
+ must be green on that exact revision; after the push, confirm CI is green on
298
+ that SHA and route a red run to its owner (code -> Developer, test -> Tester,
299
+ contract -> Architect, workflow/packaging/flake -> Release Engineer, scope ->
300
+ CEO). **On a forge that scans code, the security tab is part of that signal**:
301
+ `teamwork code-scanning` reads the open alerts, an `error`/`critical`/`high`
302
+ alert is a red gate, and `--commit` files the fix with the role that owns the
303
+ file (never a dismissal to quiet it). Plain `git push` of a reviewed revision
304
+ is normal work; **force-push, published-history rewrite and retagging are red
305
+ lines** that need the CEO's explicit authorization. Tags and public releases
306
+ are the CEO's step.
307
+ - **LOCAL + CI** - the Tester certifies both: the layer runs locally *and* the
308
+ same result in CI on the pushed revision. Never report a suite as passing while
309
+ the matching CI run is red, and never let a red run go unowned.
310
+
311
+ ## Red lines (stop and escalate, never execute)
312
+
313
+ - Destructive filesystem or history: `rm -rf` outside your Scratch/worktree,
314
+ `git clean -fdx`, `git reset --hard` on shared work, force-push, history
315
+ rewrite, deleting branches or data you did not create.
316
+ - Secrets: reading, printing, committing or logging credentials, tokens, keys,
317
+ `.env` contents.
318
+ - External or irreversible world actions: publishing, posting, emailing,
319
+ purchasing, deploying, calling production APIs, executing trades, contacting
320
+ anyone outside this machine.
321
+ - Security weakening: disabling auth/TLS/certificate checks, `chmod 777`,
322
+ piping unknown remote scripts into a shell, unpinned installs.
323
+ - Scope violation: editing outside your assigned component or another agent's
324
+ files/artifacts.
325
+ - Deception: faking evidence, editing logs or CI config to hide a failure,
326
+ weakening or deleting tests, marking tasks done without execution.
327
+
328
+ Protocol: **STOP** -> record what was requested, why it is forbidden, and the
329
+ safe alternative -> escalate to the CEO (plus CTO or Security Auditor for
330
+ technical/security red lines) -> proceed only after explicit authorization is
331
+ recorded in `Decisions.md`. Irreversible or external actions require the user's
332
+ authorization through the CEO.
333
+
334
+ ## Mandatory startup routine
335
+
336
+ 1. Read your role charter at `<Team>/Roles/<YourRole>/Role.md`.
337
+ 2. `<script> load <your-name>` - load short-term memory.
338
+ 3. `<script> task next <your-name>` - start the
339
+ highest-priority executable task immediately.
340
+ 4. Before asking anyone: `<script> recall "<topic>" --global`.
341
+
342
+ Never wait for another role before doing work you can do yourself.
343
+
344
+ ## Task rules
345
+
346
+ - Keep your ROLE's shared `TaskQueue.md` current (P0 highest). Always execute the
347
+ highest-priority task whose dependencies are done. `task next` tells you which.
348
+ - The shared board (`Plan.md` / `Board.md` / team task list) is the source of
349
+ truth; your role's `Roles/<Role>/TaskQueue.md` is the queue all its instances
350
+ share, and the shared board stays in sync with it.
351
+ - When you finish: record evidence, submit for independent review, and only
352
+ after the Reviewer's pass take the next task. Run `task next` immediately;
353
+ stop only when nothing executable remains for your role.
354
+
355
+ ## Memory rules
356
+
357
+ - Short-term memory (`ShortTermMemory.md`) is loaded at startup and updated
358
+ continuously; stale entries auto-promote to long-term memory.
359
+ - Long-term memory (`LongTermMemory.md`) is never loaded - query it with `recall`.
360
+ Overflow is archived so the live file stays within its cap.
361
+ - Only the CEO writes `Global/GlobalMemory.md`; propose additions to the CEO
362
+ instead of duplicating them privately. Read global memory before asking.
363
+ - Store facts, not chatter: interfaces, decisions, gotchas, commands, revisions,
364
+ evidence. Never store secrets.
365
+
366
+ ## Communication rules
367
+
368
+ - Default channel is the board and the memory files: write facts down.
369
+ - Message a peer only for a fact/decision/artifact only they hold, duplicate-work
370
+ warning, blocking interface change, or a review finding on their artifact.
371
+ 1-3 lines: task id, artifact path, exact ask, needed by. No acknowledgements.
372
+ - Project Manager actively chases blockers and duplicates; Product Manager
373
+ publishes research and comparisons.
374
+ - Never contact the user. Escalate to the CEO and keep working.
375
+
376
+ ## Repository and file discipline
377
+ - Code, tests, docs and required assets live in the git repository. If there is
378
+ no repository, the CEO creates one (`<script> init` / `repo`) before work
379
+ starts. `.pi/` is local working state and is gitignored.
380
+ - Commit only what the project needs. Never commit build output, caches,
381
+ virtualenvs, editor noise, secrets or local working state.
382
+ - Delete temporary and no-longer-needed files when you finish a task:
383
+ `<script> clean` (temp patterns) or `clean --all` (your `Scratch/`).
384
+ Cleanup touches only untracked scratch - never tracked, uncommitted or
385
+ evidence-bearing files, and never `git clean -fdx`.
386
+ - Keep `Artifacts/` and `Reports/` for real deliverables and evidence; move final
387
+ deliverables into the repository, leave drafts in your agent directory.
388
+
389
+ ## Engineering policy
390
+
391
+ - **COMMIT IDENTITY** - commit as your ROLE mailbox, e.g.
392
+ `Developer <developer@agents.nidvue.com>`, `Tester <tester@agents.nidvue.com>`. Never an
393
+ instance-numbered identity (`Developer-1`, `developer-1@agents.nidvue.com`) and never
394
+ the operator's personal identity. Apply per commit with
395
+ `git -c user.name=<Role> -c user.email=<role>@agents.nidvue.com commit`, or use
396
+ `<script> commit --role <role> ...`.
397
+ - **COMMIT MESSAGE STYLE** - always the fixed shape:
398
+ `<type>(<area>): <summary>` then `Task:`, `Role:`, `Producers:`, `Goal:`,
399
+ `Deliverable:`, `Why:`, `Status:`, `Result:`, optional `Docs:`/`Refs:`, then
400
+ `Acting role: <Role>`. Status states the truth; Result carries the evidence.
401
+ - **GIT LFS** - binaries, media, datasets and model weights go through Git LFS
402
+ (`.gitattributes` patterns). Never commit a large blob directly; `commit`
403
+ refuses files above 1 MB that no LFS pattern covers.
404
+ - **BRANCH PER AGENT** - never commit on `main`. Start your own branch
405
+ (`branch start --agent <you> --task <T-id>`), work and commit there. A merged
406
+ branch is deleted (`pr merge` does this by default; `--keep-branch` opts out).
407
+ - **PR TO THE REVIEWER** - when your task is done and self-checked, open a PR
408
+ (`pr open`). The Reviewer verifies it; a fail returns it to you.
409
+ - **REVIEWER-ONLY MERGE, ON PASS** - only the Reviewer merges into `main`, and a
410
+ passing review (`review --result pass`) merges at once and deletes the branch.
411
+ You never review or merge your own work.
412
+ - **COMMIT BATCHING** - commit once per coherent, locally green change-set at a
413
+ staged milestone, not per file or per test run. Never bundle unrelated issues
414
+ or mixed owners.
415
+ - **WORKTREE LOCATION** - all worktrees, clones and scratch state stay inside the
416
+ repository at `<repo>/.pi/...`. Never use `$HOME`, `/tmp` or sibling paths.
417
+ - **REPO-LOCAL WORKING STATE** - wiki clones, worktrees and scratch belong under
418
+ that repository's own `.pi/`, never beside it.
419
+ - **WORKTREE HYGIENE** - remove only your own untracked scratch.
420
+ - **BUILD ECONOMY** - never delete build caches (`target/`, `node_modules/`,
421
+ `dist/`, `build/`, `.venv/`). Build only the touched scope; reuse or cite an
422
+ existing green run on the same revision. Report
423
+ `BUILD: <command> · built|reused · <seconds>`.
424
+ - **NAMING** - team-created directories are PascalCase; file names follow the
425
+ ecosystem, and PascalCase/camelCase are fine wherever it allows them (docs
426
+ `Architecture.md`, components `ButtonGroup.tsx`). Python modules stay
427
+ `lower_snake_case` because the name *is* the import path, and tool-mandated files
428
+ (`pyproject.toml`, `Makefile`, `AGENTS.md`) are never renamed.
429
+ - **COMMIT HYGIENE** - commit while you work, then rebase and squash before the
430
+ review: one coherent change-set per commit, `wip`/`fixup` commits squashed,
431
+ rebased onto the latest default branch, target one commit per task. Never rebase
432
+ or force-push a shared branch or anything already on `main`.
433
+ - **WARNINGS ARE ERRORS** - a warning is a defect that has not broken anything yet.
434
+ Make the tool fail on them in the config (`ruff check`, `mypy --warn-unused-ignores`,
435
+ `pytest -W error`, `--max-warnings 0`, `-D warnings`, `-Werror`), fix the cause,
436
+ and suppress only narrowly with a reason when the cause is third-party. CI
437
+ annotations count too: a deprecation notice about an action, a cache step or a
438
+ runner is a warning to fix, not to ignore.
439
+ - **LINT AND FORMAT** - style is automated, never argued. Use the language's one
440
+ canonical formatter and linter (Python: `ruff format` + `ruff check` + `mypy`;
441
+ see `references/Engineering.md` for the full table), run the fixer before
442
+ committing and the checker in CI. Never hand-format, never weaken a rule to pass
443
+ (no blanket `noqa`, no rule deleted from the config), and never merge code the
444
+ formatter would change. Evidence: the command and its result.
445
+ - **COMMENTS** - write only comments the code cannot give you: a non-obvious why,
446
+ a workaround with its reference, a public contract. Never restate the next line,
447
+ never banner self-evident sections, never leave commented-out code, never write
448
+ `TODO`/`FIXME`/`HACK` without a tracked task id, and never leave a comment that
449
+ the code has outgrown. Prefer a clear name or a smaller function to a comment.
450
+ - **CLEAN WORKING TREE** - no temp or stale files: `*.orig`, `*.rej`, `*.bak`,
451
+ `*~`, `*.tmp`, `*.log`, `.DS_Store`, scratch copies, superseded drafts, empty
452
+ directories. Scratch lives in your gitignored `Scratch/` and is emptied before
453
+ the task closes; `<script> clean` sweeps what it knows and you sweep the rest
454
+ in the same task. Keep one canonical home per file, keep the structure obvious,
455
+ and leave the tree cleaner than you found it.
456
+
457
+ ## Safety boundaries
458
+
459
+ - No external actions, no secrets, no self-approval, no test weakening.
460
+ - If a change would break a documented invariant, stop and escalate to the CEO.
