+
+---
+
+## ✅ Completed Improvements
+
+### 1️⃣ Mandatory Q&A Checklists (4 files created)
+
+**Location**: `.codex/skills/genesis-harness/checklists/`
+
+Files created:
+- ✅ `new-feature-qa.md` (95 lines)
+  - Comprehensive questionnaire for new features
+  - Covers user story, requirements, scope, impact, testing
+  - Mandatory before `/new-feature` planning
+
+- ✅ `bug-fix-qa.md` (140 lines)
+  - Deep-dive Q&A for bug fixes
+  - Covers reproduction, root cause, impact, fix strategy

+
+## 🔄 Workflow Changes
+
+### Before (Manual, Disconnected)
+
+```
+Plan → Implement → Manual docs update → Manual state tracking
+Issues:
+- Docs drift from code
+- Q&A incomplete, scope creep
+- State loss if work paused
+- Can't resume mid-feature
+```
+
+### After (Automated, Connected)
+
+```
+Q&A Checklist
+    ↓
+Requirements Validation
+    ↓
+Plan (with contracts)
+    ↓
+Implement (write tests first)
+    ↓
+Auto-detect changes
+    ↓
+Auto-suggest docs to update
+    ↓
+Manual docs sync (with api-sync-skill if APIs changed)
+    ↓
+Create IMPLEMENTATION_HANDOFF.md
+    ↓
+Create RECOVERY_POINTS.md
+    ↓
+Ready for deployment or handoff
+
+Benefits:
+✓ No more scope creep (Q&A catches it early)
+✓ No more docs drift (auto-detect identifies what changed)
+✓ Safe to pause work (recovery points documented)
+✓ Easy handoff (handoff document prepared)
+✓ API contracts stay in sync (api-sync-skill)
