 # GLOSSARY  (one name per concept — used everywhere: specs, contracts, code)

+# ADD method vocabulary (domain-standard names; bridges to legacy terms)
+GOAL: the one durable outcome a project (and each milestone) runs toward — the loop's orientation anchor, declared as the lowercase `goal:` line in PROJECT.md / MILESTONE.md and surfaced by status/guide every session; distinct from a task's §1 Must (a single required behavior, not the whole-project outcome).
+deep verify: the deepened Verify evidence (v20) required beyond passing tests — for a task that produced code, that every new symbol is referenced (wiring) and no new dead/unused code exists; for prose/non-code, a recorded no-skim semantic read; which path applies is resolver-judged and the engine never classifies (a rubric, not add.py).
+onboarding: the install -> first-milestone path (formerly "on-ramp").
+primary flow: the solid forward path of the flow diagram — a phase starts only when its input exists (formerly "forward spine").
+cross-cutting concern: a concern running through every step rather than being one step — security, testing, observability, cost (formerly "spine / continuous concern").
+working state: everything an agent loads each session — skill router, active phase, PROJECT/MILESTONE/TASK, state.json (formerly "state surface").
+audit trail: the reference record read by people, never auto-loaded into agent context (formerly "story surface").
+method rationale: the why behind every rule — the AIDD book, loaded on demand, never duplicated (formerly "trust layer").
+failing-first suite: the test suite written before code, confirmed red for the right reason — a missing implementation (formerly "red safety net").
+non-functional review: the deliberate post-evidence check of what tests rarely catch — concurrency, security, architecture (formerly "blind-spot checks").
+change scope: the files a locked run may and may not touch (formerly "touch-boundary"; the <touch_boundary> XML prompt tag keeps its name).
+automated quality gate: the evidence-based Verify resolver under autonomy auto — may auto-PASS on complete evidence; security always escalates (formerly "evidence auto-gate").
+autonomy level: the per-task Verify resolver setting — auto (default) or conservative; declared in the TASK.md header, human-reviewed at the freeze (formerly "autonomy dial").
+living documentation: the durable project artifacts — conventions, glossary, frozen contracts — that outlive any particular code (formerly "survivor layer").
+scope level: the granularity a decision lives at — intake level (request -> versioned scope), milestone level, setup/foundation level, task level (formerly "altitude").
+baseline approval: the one human gate that freezes the AI-drafted foundation, first scope, and first contract together — runs as `add.py lock` (formerly "the lock-down").
+lesson learned: a single learning a loop produces, tagged by the competency it improves — the `- [DDD · open]` grammar and deltas.md/`add.py deltas` machine names stay (formerly "competency delta").
+lowest-confidence flag: the AI's ranked declaration of the 1–2 points most likely to be wrong in what a human is asked to approve — each with why + cost-if-wrong; the ⚠ glyph keeps its name as the machine marker (formerly "least-sure flag").
+decision point: a stop for human judgment — the contract-freeze approval, an escalated verify gate, intake confirmation, milestone close; the machine names seam (--json owner enum, decide key) and seam-audit (CI job) keep their names (formerly "seam").
+retrospective consolidation: gathering confirmed lessons learned at milestone close and writing them append-only into the versioned foundation — human-confirmed, never self-approved; the machine names fold.md, the folded status, and add.py deltas keep their names (formerly "the fold / fold ritual").
+specification bundle: a task's spec, scenarios, contract, and failing tests drafted as one piece and approved by a person once at the contract freeze (formerly "the one-approval front").
