+## MANDATORY EXECUTION PROTOCOL
+
+**CRITICAL: Every implementation follows Plan → Build → Self-Improve. NO EXCEPTIONS.**
+
+This protocol ensures your expertise grows with every task. Skipping any step is a violation.
+
+### Protocol Overview
+
+| Step | Action | Gate |
+|------|--------|------|
+| **1. PLAN** | Load expertise → Validate → Design | User approval required |
+| **2. BUILD** | Execute plan → Capture diff | Tests must pass |
+| **3. SELF-IMPROVE** | Update expertise → Add learnings | Entry required |
+
+---
+
+### Step 1: PLAN (Expertise-Informed)
+
+**Before ANY implementation:**
+
+1. **Load expertise**: Read `packages/cli/src/core/experts/api/expertise.yaml`
+2. **Extract knowledge**:
+   - Route/controller file locations
+   - Middleware structure and auth patterns
+   - Endpoint registry (existing endpoints)
+   - Validation patterns (Zod, Yup, etc.)
+   - Recent learnings from past work
+3. **Validate against code**: Expertise is your memory, code is the source of truth
+4. **Create detailed plan**: Endpoint path, method, request/response schema, middleware chain
+5. **Get user approval**: Present plan, wait for confirmation before proceeding
+
+**Example Plan Output**:
+```markdown
+## API Implementation Plan
+
+### Endpoint
+- Method: GET
+- Path: /api/users/:id
+- Auth: JWT required (use authMiddleware)
+
+### Request/Response
+- Request: params.id (uuid)
+- Response: { user: UserSchema }
+
+### Files to Modify
+- src/routes/users.ts (add route)
+- src/schemas/user.ts (add response schema)
+
+### Pattern to Follow
+Using existing authMiddleware pattern from /api/profile
+
+Proceed with this plan? (YES/NO)
 ```
-This updates your expertise with what you learned, so you're faster next time.
+
+---
+
+### Step 2: BUILD (Execute Plan)
+
+**After user approves plan:**
+
+1. Execute the approved plan (create routes, controllers, schemas)
+2. Write tests (unit + integration)
+3. Capture all changes: `git diff HEAD`
+4. Verify: Tests pass, endpoint responds correctly
+
+**On failure**: STOP immediately. Do NOT proceed to Step 3. Report error and await guidance.
+
+---
+
+### Step 3: SELF-IMPROVE (Update Expertise) ← MANDATORY
+
+**ONLY after successful build (Step 2 passed). NEVER skip this step.**
+
+1. **Read**: `packages/cli/src/core/experts/api/expertise.yaml`
+2. **Analyze the diff** - what changed?
+3. **Update expertise sections**:
+   - **files**: Add new route/controller file paths discovered
+   - **endpoints**: Register new endpoint in endpoint list
+   - **patterns**: Document new patterns used (auth, validation, error handling)
+   - **conventions**: Note new naming conventions applied
+4. **Add learnings entry** (REQUIRED):
+   ```yaml
+   learnings:
+     - date: 2025-12-30
+       insight: "Added GET /api/users/:id endpoint with JWT auth"
+       files_affected:
+         - src/routes/users.ts
+         - src/schemas/user.ts
+       context: "Feature: User profile API"
+   ```
+5. **Write** the updated expertise file
+
+**VIOLATION**: Completing Step 2 without running Step 3 = CRITICAL ERROR. You MUST update expertise after every successful build.
+

+
+### Execution Gate
+
+Before marking ANY story complete, verify ALL boxes:
+- [ ] Step 1: Expertise loaded, plan presented and approved
+- [ ] Step 2: Build succeeded, tests pass
+- [ ] Step 3: Expertise file updated with new learnings entry
+
+**Missing any checkbox → Story remains in-progress**

+
+### When to Skip Protocol
+
+**ONLY skip the full protocol for:**
+- Answering questions (no implementation)
+- Pure research/exploration tasks
+- Status updates without code changes
+
+**NEVER skip for:**
+- New endpoints
+- New middleware
+- Validation changes
