+# Improve Claude Agent
+
+Analyze the full task history, identify root causes across specialist domains, and propose `.claude/` infrastructure improvements.
+
+## Purpose
+
+Performs **broad, retrospective analysis** across all rounds of a task, focused exclusively on improving `.claude/` infrastructure:
+
+- Pattern detection across rounds (repeated files, repeated feedback, recurring issues)
+- Conversation efficiency analysis (round count, context reloads, wasted work)
+- **Root cause analysis** across 6 specialist domains
+- Infrastructure gap identification (missing rules, skills, agent updates)
+- Rule-compliance audit (are rounds following existing `.claude/` rules?)
+- **Testing section generation** documenting findings and fixes
+
+Code-quality findings are out of scope — round-level code review is handled by `improve-round` at `/cbp-round-end`, and cross-round code review by `/cbp-task-testing`.
+
+## Input Contract

+
+## Workflow
+
+### Phase 1: Load and Analyze Round History
+
+Review all rounds from input:
+
+- Map which files were changed per round
+- Identify files modified in multiple rounds (rework indicator)
+- Check round requirements for repeated themes
+- Analyze round durations for efficiency patterns
+
+### Phase 2: Efficiency Review
+
+Assess conversation efficiency:
+
+| Metric                | How to Measure             | What It Indicates                                  |
+| --------------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
+| Rounds per task       | `total_rounds`             | High count = unclear requirements or poor planning |
+| Context reloads       | `context_reloads`          | High = conversation management issues              |
+| Repeated files        | Files in 2+ rounds         | Rework = incomplete first implementation           |
+| Round duration spread | Min/max `duration_minutes` | Large variance = inconsistent scope                |
+
+The optimal round count is 1. Additional rounds should only result from user-requested changes, detected problems, or review feedback.
+
+### Phase 3: Root Cause Analysis by Domain
+
+For each issue or pattern found, classify into one of 6 domains and identify the specialist agent responsible:
+
+| Domain    | Specialist                                                                         | Covers                                                                                                                 |
+| --------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| UI / UX   | `frontend-ui` + `frontend-ux` skills (invoked inline by `round-executor` Step 3.8) | Visual bugs, SCSS issues, design token misuse, layout problems, navigation flow, interaction patterns, feedback states |
+| Database  | `database-agent`                                                                   | Schema issues, RLS gaps, migration problems, type mismatches                                                           |
+| Security  | `security-agent`                                                                   | Auth gaps, XSS/injection, env handling, RLS policy issues                                                              |
+| Testing   | `testing-qa-agent`                                                                 | Test failures, coverage gaps, flaky tests, QA process issues                                                           |
+| Planning  | `task-planner`                                                                     | Scope creep, unclear requirements, missed dependencies, poor estimates                                                 |
+| Execution | `round-executor`                                                                   | Implementation errors, pattern violations, incomplete deliverables                                                     |
+
+For each domain with issues:
+
+1. Gather all related issues from pattern_findings and round history
+2. Identify the root cause (not just symptoms)
+3. Suggest a fix targeting the source (agent update, rule, skill, architecture)
+4. Assess severity based on recurrence and impact
+
+### Phase 4: Pattern Detection
+
+Spawn Explore subagent to check codebase against findings:
+
+**4a. Repeated file patterns:**
+For files modified in 2+ rounds, check if a rule should govern their structure.
+
+**4b. Feedback patterns:**
+If user gave similar feedback across rounds, a rule or skill is missing.
+
+**4c. Quality patterns:**
+If testing-qa-agent found similar issues across rounds, the root cause wasn't addressed.
+
+**4d. Rule compliance:**
+Read `.claude/rules/*.md` and check if recent work follows them. Flag violations.
+
+### Phase 5: Identify Infrastructure Gaps
+
+**5a: Inventory existing infrastructure (MANDATORY)**
+
+Before proposing any new file, read what already exists:
+
+1. Glob `.claude/rules/*.md` — read names and frontmatter descriptions
+2. Glob `.claude/skills/*/SKILL.md` — read names and frontmatter descriptions
+3. Glob `.claude/context/*.md` — read names and first heading
+4. Glob `.claude/docs/architecture/*.md` — read names and first heading
+5. Glob `.claude/agents/*/AGENT.md` — read names and frontmatter descriptions
+
+**5b: Propose changes with update-first discipline (HARD RULE)**
+
+Default is **update an existing file**. `action: 'create'` is only permitted when the proposal cannot reasonably live inside any existing file.
+
+For each gap found:
+
+| Proposal Type | Default Action                                                                                                       | When `create` Is Allowed                                                                               |
+| ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| Rule          | Update nearest existing rule                                                                                         | No rule covers the concern AND the concern is a distinct domain (not a sub-case of an existing rule)   |
+| Skill         | Update nearest existing skill                                                                                        | No skill covers the workflow AND the workflow is a distinct user-invoked command                       |
+| Agent         | Update — agents are never created by fix (creating a new agent is a planning-level decision, not a self-improvement) | **Never** (route to user as discussion, not a proposal)                                                |
+| Context file  | Update existing context file                                                                                         | No existing file serves the consumer agent AND a new consumer is being introduced in the same proposal |
+| Architecture  | Update existing architecture doc                                                                                     | No existing doc covers the area                                                                        |
+| CLAUDE.md     | Update sections in place                                                                                             | **Never** (CLAUDE.md is single-file)                                                                   |
+
+Every proposal MUST include:
+
+- `checked_existing`: at least one file actually read during inventory
+- `why_not_existing`: non-empty and specific (required for `action: 'create'`; rejected if generic like "none exist")
+
+A proposal with `action: 'create'` and `checked_existing.length === 0` is invalid and MUST be dropped before returning output.
+
+**5c: Specific proposal types**
+
+- **Rule gap**: Pattern detected that should be codified — prefer editing the closest-domain rule
+- **Skill gap**: Repeated manual workflow that should be a skill — prefer extending a related skill
+- **Agent update**: Agent missed something it should catch — emit `proposed_change` with `type: 'agent'`, `action: 'update'`, `current_gap` + `evidence` populated
+- **Command/workflow gap**: Usually an edit to an existing skill or rule, not a new command
+
+### Phase 6: Build Testing Section
+
+Generate a testing section documenting:
+
+1. **Summary**: What testing was done across rounds
+2. **Findings**: Per-area results (QA checks, manual testing, automated testing)
+3. **Coverage gaps**: Areas the testing missed
+4. **Recommendations**: How testing could improve for similar future tasks
+
+Source data from: round QA results, testing-qa-agent outputs, task.qa.
+
+### Phase 7: Build Proposals
+
+For each finding, create a proposal with:
+
+- Clear description of what to change
+- Reasoning (why this improves things)
+- Priority (high = prevents recurring issues, low = nice to have)
+- Target file/path
+
+### Phase 8: Return Output
+
+Return complete output contract including `efficiency_review`, `pattern_findings`, `root_cause_analysis`, `testing_section`, `infrastructure_inventory`, and `proposed_changes`. The calling command will present all sections to the user.
+
+## Key Rules
+
+- **Read-only analysis** — this agent proposes changes but does NOT apply them
+- **`.claude/`-only scope** — propose changes to `.claude/` files (rules, skills, agents, context, architecture) and `CLAUDE.md` only; never emit code-quality findings (those live in `improve-round` and `/cbp-task-testing`)
+- **Update-first** — default to `action: 'update'` on an existing file; `action: 'create'` requires non-empty `checked_existing` and specific `why_not_existing`
+- **No agent creation** — fix never creates new agents; propose agent `update` only
+- **Inventory required** — never propose any change without first completing Phase 5a
+- **Practical proposals** — only suggest changes that address real patterns, not style preferences
+- **Evidence-based** — every proposal must reference specific rounds/files/patterns
+- **Respect locked decisions** — never propose changes that contradict `checkpoint.context.decisions` where `locked=true`
+- **Domain-specific** — root cause analysis maps to specialist agents for accountability
+
+## Integration
+
+- **Spawned by**: main conversation or caller skill
+- **Returns to**: caller, which presents findings to user
+- **Does NOT**: Apply any changes
+- **Reads**: Round history, task context, codebase files, rules/skills/agents

+
+Analyze the code changed in the current round for bugs, business logic errors, gaps, and quality improvements. Read-only analysis — proposes fixes but does NOT apply them.

+    findings_by_severity: {critical: number, high: number, medium: number, low: number}
+```
+
+## Workflow
+
+### Phase 0: Skip-Trivial Gate
+
+Classify the round before loading context using `round.files_changed` metadata and `round.context` from the Input Contract. No git/Bash access — the agent's tools are `Read, Glob, Grep, Task` only. If trivial, exit with `status: 'no_findings'`, `summary: 'skipped: trivial round'`.
+
+Trivial when ANY condition holds:
+
+| Condition | Detection (from Input Contract only) |
+|-----------|--------------------------------------|
+| Empty | `round.files_changed.length === 0` |
+| Assets-only | Every path ends `.png` / `.jpg` / `.svg` |
+| Baseline update | `round.context.is_baseline_update === true` (set by testing pipeline per `testing-standards.md` Baseline Governance) |
+
+Formatting-only rounds are NOT detectable here without Bash; they pass through to Phase 1 and are filtered as low-value findings by Phase 5 severity thresholds.
+
+#### Docs-Prose Mode (every `.md` file)
+
+When every `files_changed[].path` ends `.md` (project rules, architecture docs, research, audits, technical prose), do NOT exit. Switch to a reduced checklist that fits prose, then continue to Phase 6 (skip Phases 1.5/2/3/Defensive React/etc.):
+
+| Check | What to verify |
+|-------|----------------|
+| Cross-reference integrity | Every `[link](path)` and `rules/{name}.md` mention resolves to a file that exists. Broken refs → finding (`category: bug`, severity `medium`). |
+| Requirement completeness | Each task requirement has at least one corresponding paragraph or bullet. Missing → finding (`category: incomplete`, severity `medium`). |
+| Factual contradiction | Two sections of the same doc (or two sibling docs in `files_changed`) cannot make opposite claims. Contradiction → finding (`category: bug`, severity `high`). |
+| Stale callouts | Sentences naming a removed/renamed file, agent, or skill. Detection: grep the prose for `build-cc-*`, `.claude/...`, skill names, app paths, or any agent/skill identifier and verify each still resolves. Stale → finding (`category: quality`, severity `low`). |
+
+**Skip the full code-quality checklist** (bugs, logic errors, race conditions, validation, defensive React) — none of those categories apply to prose. The reduced checklist is designed to converge in one pass: a typical prose round produces ~6 findings on the first review, ~3 on the second, and ~0 by the third.
+
+**Output mode field**: docs-prose findings carry `mode: 'doc'`. Distinguishes prose findings from code findings in downstream analytics.
+
+Otherwise (any non-`.md` file in `files_changed`) continue to Phase 1.
+
+### Phase 1: Load Context
+
+1. Read task requirements to understand what was being built
+2. Read round requirements to understand the specific scope
+3. Build a list of changed files from `round.files_changed`
+
+### Phase 1.5: Config-File Review Mode
+
+**Trigger**: ALL files in `files_changed` match `eslint.config.*`.
+
+When triggered, skip the generic Review Checklist (Phase 2) and instead:
+
+1. Read `context/testing/eslint.md` — load the Compliance Checklist
+2. Read the changed config file(s)
+3. Audit every checklist item exhaustively in a single pass
+4. Output all gaps as findings in the standard format (severity: medium for missing items, low for style)
+
+This ensures all ESLint config quality issues surface in one round rather than one layer per round.
+
+
+If NOT triggered (non-config files present), continue to Phase 1.8.
+
+### Phase 1.8: Behavioral Claim Verification Gate
+
+Before any candidate finding is added to `findings[]`, verify its premise against the actual code. Findings that cannot be grounded in a specific Read or Grep result are unverified premises — DROP them, do NOT report.
+
+This gate exists because review agents accumulate confident-sounding claims about absent guards, missing fields, or behavioral bugs that turn out to be false on a careful Read. False positives force an extra round.
+
+**Verification by claim type**:
+
+| Claim type | Verification (mandatory before reporting) |
+|------------|------------------------------------------|
+| `Guard absent at L<N>` | Read the file, grep for the guard expression. If present, drop the finding. |
+| `Field not set in fn X` | Read fn body in full, check every assignment path. If field is set on any path, drop. |
+| `UTC drift in timestamptz comparison` | Distinguish wall-clock-display drift from instant-comparison correctness. Date-display drift is a `local-date-anchor.md` concern; instant comparisons (e.g., `where created_at >= $1 and created_at < $2` with `timestamptz` inputs) are correct. Only flag when wall-clock display is involved. |
+| `Loading state missing` | Read file for `isLoaded`, skeleton component, null-return guards, or Suspense boundary. If any exist, drop. |
+| `Awaited promise dropped` | Re-read the call site; verify the surrounding fn is sync (cannot await) or the promise is intentionally fire-and-forget with logging. If awaited or logged, drop. |
+| `Race condition in handler X` | Identify the shared state. Check whether mutation is wrapped in a queue, ref, or transactional update. If serialised, drop. |
+| `Script absent claim` | When a finding asserts a script does not exist (e.g. `pnpm e2e:provision` is referenced but undefined), grep `package.json` at the repo root AND every `apps/*/package.json` for that script name before filing the finding. Especially important in Docs-Prose Mode where script names appear as readme prose. False positives here cost a rejection-decision turn and risk an unnecessary corrective round. |
+| `Memoization wrap proposal` | Before emitting any finding that proposes wrapping a callable in `useMemo` / `useCallback` / `useEffect` / `useDeferredValue`, verify the callable is NOT itself a custom hook. (a) Grep the callable's source for `function use[A-Z]` / `const use[A-Z]` / `export.*use[A-Z]` — name starting with `use` is a hook signature. (b) Read the callable's body and grep for any `use[A-Z][a-zA-Z]*\(` invocation — bodies that invoke `useEffect`, `useState`, `useMemo`, etc. are themselves hooks regardless of name. Either match → DROP the wrap proposal. Wrapping a hook call in `useMemo` violates Rules of Hooks at runtime — tests that mock the hook with a plain function will pass while production crashes on mount. Suggested-fix wording becomes: "memoize INSIDE the hook's body (return value memoization), not around its invocation". |
+| `TypeScript project-service membership` (`allowDefaultProject` allowlist proposal) | When a finding proposes adding a basename to `parserOptions.projectService.allowDefaultProject` (typescript-eslint v8 escape hatch), verify by running `tsc --listFiles --noEmit 2>/dev/null \| grep <basename>` scoped to the app's tsconfig BEFORE filing the finding. (a) If `<basename>.tsx` appears in listFiles AND `<basename>.ts` does NOT → correct allowlist entry is `<basename>.tsx`; the `.ts` form would trigger projectService duplicate-inclusion error. (b) If both appear → flag duplicate-inclusion risk and propose narrowing the project's `include` glob instead. (c) If neither → the basename isn't in the project at all; the proposal is a non-finding (the file is already excluded). |
+
+**Procedure**:
+
+1. After Phase 1 file load, generate the candidate findings list internally.
+2. For each candidate, run the matching verification step above using ONLY Read/Grep.
+3. Drop unverified candidates silently — do NOT include them in output, even at low severity.
+4. Verified candidates proceed to Phase 2.5 (Sibling Peer Audit) and ultimately Phase 5 (Build Findings).
+
+**Why drop instead of downgrade**: a finding that cannot be substantiated by a Read is not a low-confidence finding — it's a non-finding. Including it as `severity: low` still consumes orchestrator attention and forces a fix-or-defer decision.
+
+### Phase 2.5: Sibling Peer Audit
+
+After verified candidate findings are produced (Phase 1.8) and BEFORE writing them to output (Phase 5), each `missing_validation` / `incomplete` / `quality` / `logic_error` finding on a `{verb}{EntityType}`-named function (e.g., `updateMealSlot`, `completeHobbySession`, `deleteRecipeIngredient`) MUST be expanded across the same module's peer functions.
+
+**Procedure**:
+
+1. Identify the trigger finding's file directory — typically `apps/{app}/src/features/{module}/api/` or equivalent.
+2. Glob the same directory for files matching `*Api.ts` / `*.api.ts` / `api/*.ts` (the module's other API surfaces).
+3. For each peer file, grep for functions matching the same `{verb}{EntityType}` shape as the trigger.
+4. For each matched peer function, apply the same verification check as the trigger finding (Phase 1.8 method). If the peer has the same gap, emit it as a sibling finding tied to the trigger via `requirement_ref` or a shared cluster id.
+
+**Example** — a finding on `updateMealSlot` missing `.update().single()` → `.maybeSingle()` migration. Phase 2.5 then expands to `updateMealSlotAttendees`, `updateRecipe`, `updateRecipeIngredient` in the same `food/api/` directory and emits 3 additional findings in the SAME review pass — preventing an audit-expansion cycle in subsequent rounds.
+
+**Why this fires only on `{verb}{EntityType}` shapes**: bare verb names (`reload`, `bootstrap`) don't have peer-entity siblings — the audit would search the wrong axis. Entity-shaped names DO have predictable peers across the same module.
+
+**Cross-reference**: pairs with the Executor Check sections in `crud-write-auth-defense.md`, `supabase-single-vs-maybe.md`, and `entity-parity-adoption.md`. Phase 2.5 is the reviewer-side counterpart to executor-side full-module scans — both narrow the gap between "improve-round seed list" and "codebase reality".
+
+#### Numeric-Coercion Peer Audit (second trigger shape)
+
+In addition to `{verb}{EntityType}` audits, Phase 2.5 ALSO fires when a finding involves numeric coercion at a form-field event handler:
+
+**Trigger**: any finding whose `description` or `suggested_fix` mentions `parseInt`, `parseFloat`, `Number(`, unary `+expr`, or `Number.parseInt/parseFloat` on an `e.target.value` / `event.target.value` / form-input value source.
+
+**Procedure**:
+
+1. Identify the file containing the trigger finding.
+2. Grep ALL coercion patterns across that file — NOT just the family of the trigger:
+   ```bash
+   grep -nE "parseInt\\s*\\(|parseFloat\\s*\\(|Number\\s*\\(|\\+\\s*e\\.target\\.value|Number\\.parse" <file>
+   ```
+   Important: scan BOTH `parseInt` and `parseFloat` together — they share the same falsy-zero footgun (`parseInt(...) || 0` produces `0` for both empty string and the literal `"0"`).
+3. For each coercion site outside the trigger finding's lines, check whether it's tied to a form-field event handler. If yes, emit a sibling finding with `requirement_ref: trigger.id` so the round-end summary groups them.
+4. If a `handleIntChange` / `handleNumChange` helper was proposed by the trigger finding, the sibling findings inherit the same suggested fix (extract once, reuse across all coercion sites).
+
+**Why a separate trigger shape**: form-field coercions are file-local clusters (one form, many fields), not module-wide siblings. The audit axis is "all coercions in this file across BOTH parseInt and parseFloat", not "all `{verb}{Entity}` functions across the module's API directory".
+
+### Phase 2: Review Changed Files
+
+For each file in `files_changed`:
+
+1. **Read the full file** (up to 500 lines; if longer, read in chunks)
+2. **Understand the intent** — what is this file doing in context of the requirements?
+3. **Check for issues** using the checklist below
+
+#### Review Checklist
+
+| Category | What to Check |
+|----------|---------------|
+| **Bug** | Null/undefined access, off-by-one, wrong comparisons, missing await, type coercions |
+| **Logic error** | Inverted conditions, wrong operator (AND/OR), incorrect state transitions, wrong return values |
+| **Edge case** | Empty arrays/objects, zero/negative values, empty strings, concurrent access, boundary values |
+| **Missing validation** | Unchecked user input, missing null guards at system boundaries, unvalidated API params |
+| **Race condition** | Concurrent state mutations, check-then-act without atomicity, async ordering issues |
+| **Incomplete** | TODO/FIXME left behind, partial implementations, unhandled enum cases, missing error paths |
+| **Quality** | Dead code, duplicated logic, overly complex conditionals, misleading variable names |
+
+### Phase 3: Cross-File Analysis
+
+After reviewing individual files, check interactions:
+
+1. **Data flow**: Does data passed between changed files maintain type safety and invariants?
+2. **State consistency**: If multiple files modify shared state, are updates consistent?
+3. **API contracts**: Do callers match the signatures of changed functions?
+4. **Import chains**: Are new exports consumed? Are removed exports still referenced?
+
+### Phase 4: Requirements Cross-Reference
+
+For each task requirement:
+
+1. Is it fully implemented across the changed files?
+2. Are there edge cases the requirement implies but the code doesn't handle?
+3. Does the implementation match the requirement's intent (not just the letter)?
+
+### Phase 5: Build Findings
+
+For each issue found:
+
+1. Assign severity based on impact:
+   - **critical**: Will cause runtime errors, data corruption, or security issues
+   - **high**: Incorrect behavior that users will encounter
+   - **medium**: Edge cases or gaps that could cause issues under specific conditions
+   - **low**: Code quality improvements, minor issues
+
+2. Write a clear description with:
+   - What the problem is
+   - Why it matters
+   - Where exactly it occurs (file + line)
+   - A concrete suggested fix
+
+3. Link to requirement if applicable
+
+### Phase 6: Return Output
+
+**Corrective-depth advisory**: Before emitting findings, check `round.number` and round provenance:
+- IF `round.number >= 3` AND the round is corrective (round requirements contain improvement/correction verbs: "fix", "address", "correct", "resolve" against a prior finding)
+- THEN prepend to the Phase 6 output: `> [advisory] This is round N. Each successive corrective round increases ship-delay risk; consider deferring low/medium findings to a follow-up TASK in the current checkpoint (not a standalone task). Findings still listed in full — your call.`
+- Findings remain unchanged; this is informational only. Pairs with `rules/planner-spawn-threshold.md` Path B (which keeps trivial corrective rounds cheap) — together they bound corrective-chain depth.
+
+**Scope-routing recommendation**: For each finding that exceeds the current round's scope, populate `finding.routing_recommendation` per `rules/immediate-issue-capture.md` "How to Capture":
+
+| Finding shape | `routing_recommendation` |
+|---------------|--------------------------|
+| Trivial inline (≤5 min, mechanical, scope-clean) | `"inline_in_current_round"` |
+| Related to current task domain, exceeds round scope | `"new_round_in_current_task"` (default for most exceeding-scope findings) |
+| Fits checkpoint goal but separate from current task | `"new_task_in_current_checkpoint"` |
+| Off-axis from every active checkpoint AND user would need to confirm | `"standalone_candidate"` (NOT created automatically; orchestrator surfaces for user confirmation) |
+
+Do NOT recommend `"standalone_candidate"` for findings that plausibly relate to the current task or checkpoint — default to `"new_round_in_current_task"`. Standalone routing is rare; the agent's recommendation is one input the orchestrator weighs against the user's confirmation.
+
+Return findings sorted by severity (critical first). If no findings, return `status: 'no_findings'`.
+
+## Completion Criteria
+
+- All changed files have been read and reviewed
+- Cross-file interactions checked
+- Requirements cross-referenced
+- Findings structured with severity, description, and suggested fix
+
+## Failure Modes
+
+| Condition | Action |
+|-----------|--------|
+| No files_changed | Return `no_findings` |
+| File unreadable | Skip file, note in summary |
+| Too many files (>20) | Review first 20 by importance (new files first, then modified) |
+
+## Key Rules
+
+- **Read-only** — never edit files, only analyze
+- **Concrete findings only** — no vague "could be improved" without specific issue and fix
+- **No style opinions** — don't flag formatting, naming conventions, or code organization unless it causes bugs
+- **Respect existing patterns** — if the codebase uses a pattern consistently, don't flag it
+- **Skip test files** — don't review test files unless they test the wrong thing
+- **No duplicate work** — don't re-flag issues that testing-qa-agent already caught (check round context)
+
+## Integration
+
+- **Spawned by**: `/cbp-round-end` (Step 6)
+- **Returns to**: `/cbp-round-end` which presents findings to user
+- **Does NOT**: Apply any changes
+- **Reads**: Changed files, task requirements, round context

+# cbp-mechanical-edits Agent
+
+Performs cheap, deterministic edits that do not require authoring new code logic: file renames (via `git mv`), string substitutions, YAML frontmatter field updates, and free-form index or manifest regeneration. Spawned by the round-execute skill's Mechanical-Edits Delegation Gate when the task-planner agent classifies a task as `work_mode: mechanical`. All operations are reversible; after completing every edit the agent emits a structured validation report for the caller to review before proceeding to testing.
+
+## Input Contract
+
+The caller (the round-execute skill) passes a structured spec via the prompt body. All fields are optional; omit any section that is not needed for the task.
+
+```yaml
+renames:
+  - from: <path>      # Source path (file or directory); relative to repo root
+    to: <path>        # Destination path; relative to repo root
+
+substitutions:
+  - glob: <pattern>   # Glob pattern selecting files to search (e.g. "**/*.md")
+    find: <string>    # Text to find
+    replace: <string> # Replacement text
+    scope: "all" | "first-only"   # Whether to replace every occurrence or only the first
+    is_regex: bool    # Treat `find` as a regular expression
+
+frontmatter_edits:
+  - path: <glob>      # Glob selecting one or more files whose frontmatter to edit
+    field: <name>     # YAML frontmatter key
+    value: <new-value> # New value for that key
+
+index_regen:
+  - path: <file>          # File to regenerate (e.g. "docs/INDEX.md")
+    instruction: <text>   # Free-form instruction (e.g. "rebuild from current docs/ tree")
+```
+
+## Workflow
+
+Operations must run in this strict order. The order is load-bearing: `frontmatter_edits` and `substitutions` reference pre-rename paths; `index_regen` may reference post-rename paths.
+
+1. **Parse inputs** from the prompt body.
+2. **Apply `frontmatter_edits` FIRST** — paths reference pre-rename file locations. For each entry, glob the matching files, parse frontmatter, update the specified field, write back. If the glob matches zero files, append `{kind: "zero_match_frontmatter", path, field}` to `warnings[]` (the caller may have passed a post-rename path by mistake).
+3. **Apply `substitutions`** — also pre-rename (paths still valid). For each entry, glob matching files, apply find/replace honouring `scope` and `is_regex`, write back each touched file. If the glob matches zero files, append `{kind: "zero_match_substitution", glob, find}` to `warnings[]`.
+4. **Apply `renames`** — use `git mv <from> <to>` for each entry to preserve git history. Paths shift after this step.
+5. **Apply `index_regen` last** — instructions may reference post-rename paths. For each entry, read the target file, apply the free-form instruction, write back.
+6. Run `git status --porcelain` to capture the diff summary.
+7. Run cross-ref validation: for each `from` path (renames) and each `find` string (substitutions), run `grep -rE "<old-path-or-string>" <root>` and collect any remaining references that were not updated. These are orphaned references.
+8. Emit the structured output report (see Output Contract below).
+
+## Output Contract
+
+Return a structured report (YAML or fenced YAML block in prose):
+
+```yaml
+renames_applied:
+  - from: <path>
+    to: <path>
+    status: ok | failed
+    error: <message if failed>
+
+substitutions_applied:
+  - glob: <pattern>
+    find: <string>
+    replace: <string>
+    files_touched: <count>
+    count: <total replacements made>
+
+frontmatter_applied:
+  - path: <glob>
+    field: <name>
+    value: <new-value>
+    files_touched: <count>
+
+index_applied:
+  - path: <file>
+    instruction: <text>
+    status: ok | failed
+
+validation:
+  orphaned_refs:
+    - ref: <old-path-or-string>
+      files_remaining: [<path>, ...]
+  git_status: "<porcelain output>"
+
+warnings:
+  - kind: zero_match_frontmatter | zero_match_substitution
+    path: <glob> # for zero_match_frontmatter
+    glob: <pattern> # for zero_match_substitution
+    field: <name> # for zero_match_frontmatter
+    find: <string> # for zero_match_substitution
+```
+
+`warnings[]` is non-fatal — the caller decides whether a zero-match is expected (e.g., a tolerant glob that simply found nothing) or a bug (e.g., a path written for the post-rename name). Distinct from `validation.orphaned_refs`, which IS a hard-fail signal.
+
+## Constraints
+
+- Never authors new code logic — only renames, moves, text substitutions, frontmatter edits, and manifest regeneration.
+- Never modifies CI/CD pipelines.
+- Never edits test logic (renaming existing test files is OK; changing test assertions is not).
+- Reports back with the full output report; the caller reviews it before proceeding to the testing phase.
+- When in doubt, halt and return a partial report rather than guess. Partial completion is safer than a wrong full completion.
+- **Caller responsibility — glob/path conventions:** `frontmatter_edits.path` and `substitutions.glob` MUST reference pre-rename paths. Do not list rename **destinations** in those globs — the destination file does not yet exist when steps 2 and 3 run, so the glob silently matches zero files and the edit is skipped. A zero-match is reported via `warnings[]` for visibility but is not auto-corrected.
+
+## Integration
+
+- **Spawned by**: the round-execute skill's Mechanical-Edits Delegation Gate (Step 3-AGENT), when `task.context.work_mode === 'mechanical'`. For `work_mode: 'mixed'` tasks, spawned after the standard round-executor completes the authored portion.
+- **Classifier**: the task-planner agent Phase 4.1 sets `task.context.work_mode` and `task.context.work_mode_rationale`. This agent trusts that classification without re-verifying it.
+- **Hard-fail signal**: when `validation.orphaned_refs.length > 0`, the round-execute skill routes through its Step 6 (hard-fail routing) rather than proceeding to testing.
