+## Coordination Protocol
+
+This agent uses **AQE hooks (Agentic QE native hooks)** for coordination (zero external dependencies, 100-500x faster).
+
+**Automatic Lifecycle Hooks:**
+```typescript
+// Called automatically by BaseAgent
+protected async onPreTask(data: { assignment: TaskAssignment }): Promise<void> {
+  // Load quality thresholds from memory
+  const thresholds = await this.memoryStore.retrieve('aqe/quality/thresholds', {
+    partition: 'configuration'
+  });
+
+  // Retrieve decision context
+  const context = await this.memoryStore.retrieve('aqe/context', {
+    partition: 'coordination'
+  });
+
+  // Verify environment for quality gate execution
+  const verification = await this.hookManager.executePreTaskVerification({
+    task: 'quality-gate-evaluation',
+    context: {
+      requiredVars: ['NODE_ENV', 'QUALITY_PROFILE'],
+      minMemoryMB: 512,
+      requiredModules: ['jest', 'eslint']
+    }
+  });
+
+  // Emit quality gate starting event
+  this.eventBus.emit('quality-gate:starting', {
+    agentId: this.agentId,
+    thresholds: thresholds,
+    context: context
+  });
+
+  this.logger.info('Quality gate validation starting', {
+    thresholds,
+    verification: verification.passed
+  });
+}
+
+protected async onPostTask(data: { assignment: TaskAssignment; result: any }): Promise<void> {
+  // Store quality gate decisions in swarm memory
+  await this.memoryStore.store('aqe/quality/decisions', data.result, {
+    partition: 'decisions',
+    ttl: 86400 // 24 hours
+  });
+
+  // Store decision metrics for trend analysis
+  await this.memoryStore.store('aqe/quality/metrics', {
+    timestamp: Date.now(),
+    decision: data.result.decision,
+    score: data.result.score,
+    riskLevel: data.result.riskLevel,
+    policyViolations: data.result.policyViolations
+  }, {
+    partition: 'metrics',
+    ttl: 604800 // 7 days
+  });
+
+  // Emit completion event with decision outcome
+  this.eventBus.emit('quality-gate:completed', {
+    agentId: this.agentId,
+    decision: data.result.decision,
+    score: data.result.score,
+    goPassed: data.result.decision === 'GO'
+  });
+
+  // Validate quality gate results
+  const validation = await this.hookManager.executePostTaskValidation({
+    task: 'quality-gate-evaluation',
+    result: {
+      output: data.result,
+      coverage: data.result.coverageScore,
+      metrics: {
+        qualityScore: data.result.score,
+        riskLevel: data.result.riskLevel
+      }
+    }
+  });
+
+  this.logger.info('Quality gate evaluation completed', {
+    decision: data.result.decision,
+    score: data.result.score,
+    validated: validation.passed
+  });
+}
+
+protected async onTaskError(data: { assignment: TaskAssignment; error: Error }): Promise<void> {
+  // Store error for fleet analysis
+  await this.memoryStore.store(`aqe/errors/${data.assignment.task.id}`, {
+    error: data.error.message,
+    timestamp: Date.now(),
+    agent: this.agentId,
+    taskType: 'quality-gate-evaluation'
+  }, {
+    partition: 'errors',
+    ttl: 604800 // 7 days
+  });
+
+  // Emit error event for fleet coordination
+  this.eventBus.emit('quality-gate:error', {
+    agentId: this.agentId,
+    error: data.error.message,
+    taskId: data.assignment.task.id
+  });
+
+  this.logger.error('Quality gate evaluation failed', {
+    error: data.error.message,
+    stack: data.error.stack
+  });
+}
+```
+
+**Advanced Verification (Optional):**
+```typescript
+// Use VerificationHookManager for comprehensive validation
+const hookManager = new VerificationHookManager(this.memoryStore);
+
+// Pre-task verification with environment checks
+const verification = await hookManager.executePreTaskVerification({
+  task: 'quality-gate-evaluation',
+  context: {
+    requiredVars: ['NODE_ENV', 'QUALITY_PROFILE', 'THRESHOLD_CONFIG'],
+    minMemoryMB: 512,
+    requiredModules: ['jest', 'eslint', '@typescript-eslint/parser']
+  }
+});
+
+// Post-task validation with result verification
+const validation = await hookManager.executePostTaskValidation({
+  task: 'quality-gate-evaluation',
+  result: {
+    output: gateDecision,
+    coverage: coverageScore,
+    metrics: {
+      qualityScore: qualityScore,
+      riskLevel: riskLevel,
+      policyCompliance: complianceScore
+    }
+  }
+});
+
+// Pre-edit verification before modifying quality configurations
+const editCheck = await hookManager.executePreEditVerification({
+  filePath: 'config/quality-thresholds.json',
+  operation: 'write',
+  content: JSON.stringify(newThresholds)
+});
+
+// Session finalization with quality gate audit export
+const finalization = await hookManager.executeSessionEndFinalization({
+  sessionId: 'quality-gate-v2.0.0',
+  exportMetrics: true,
+  exportArtifacts: true
+});
+```
+
+## Decision Workflow
+
+### Phase 1: Context Assessment
+```yaml
+inputs:
+  - test_results: comprehensive
+  - coverage_metrics: detailed
+  - performance_data: real_time
+  - security_scan_results: latest
+  - compliance_status: current
+```
+
+### Phase 2: Quality Evaluation
+1. **Metric Analysis**: Process all quality indicators using AI algorithms
+2. **Threshold Comparison**: Compare against dynamic thresholds
+3. **Risk Calculation**: Assess potential impact of quality issues
+4. **Trend Analysis**: Evaluate quality trajectory using temporal models
+5. **Policy Verification**: Validate against compliance requirements
+
+### Phase 3: Decision Generation
+- **Go Decision**: All quality gates passed with acceptable risk
+- **No-Go Decision**: Critical quality issues or unacceptable risk
+- **Conditional Go**: Pass with conditions and monitoring requirements
+- **Override Assessment**: Evaluate business justification for quality exceptions
+
+### Phase 4: Action Execution
+- Trigger appropriate pipeline actions
+- Generate detailed quality reports
+- Update quality dashboards
+- Notify stakeholders of decisions
+- Store decision audit trail
+
+## Threshold Management
+
+### Dynamic Threshold Adjustment
+```javascript
+// AI-driven threshold optimization
+const adjustThresholds = (context) => {
+  const riskProfile = assessRiskProfile(context);
+  const historicalData = getHistoricalPerformance();
+  const businessCriticality = evaluateBusinessImpact(context);
+
+  return optimizeThresholds({
+    riskProfile,
+    historicalData,
+    businessCriticality,
+    temporalFactors: getTrendPredictions()
+  });
+};
+```
+
+### Threshold Categories
+- **Code Quality**: Complexity, maintainability, technical debt
+- **Test Coverage**: Line, branch, functional coverage metrics
+- **Performance**: Response time, throughput, resource utilization
+- **Security**: Vulnerability scanning, compliance verification
+- **Reliability**: Error rates, availability, stability metrics
+
+## Risk Assessment
+
+### Risk Factors Matrix
+| Factor | Weight | Assessment Method |
+|--------|--------|------------------|
+| Critical Path Impact | 0.30 | Business process analysis |
+| User Impact Scope | 0.25 | User segmentation analysis |
+| Recovery Complexity | 0.20 | System dependency mapping |
+| Regulatory Impact | 0.15 | Compliance requirement review |
+| Reputation Risk | 0.10 | Brand impact assessment |
+
+### Risk Mitigation Strategies
+- **High Risk**: Immediate escalation, additional testing required
+- **Medium Risk**: Enhanced monitoring, conditional approval
+- **Low Risk**: Standard approval with routine monitoring
+- **Negligible Risk**: Automated approval with audit logging
+
+## Policy Validation
+
+### Automated Compliance Checking
+```yaml
+policies:
+  security:
+    - vulnerability_scanning: required
+    - security_review: mandatory_for_critical
+    - penetration_testing: quarterly
+  performance:
+    - load_testing: required_for_user_facing
+    - performance_budgets: strictly_enforced
+    - scalability_validation: cloud_native_apps
+  quality:
+    - code_review: mandatory
+    - test_coverage: minimum_80_percent
+    - documentation: up_to_date_required
+```
+
+### Override Management
+- **Business Override**: Requires C-level approval for production
+- **Technical Override**: Senior architect approval with remediation plan
+- **Emergency Override**: Incident commander authority with immediate review
+- **Compliance Override**: Legal/compliance team approval required
+
+## Integration Points
