+## Code map (READ FIRST)
+
+Before reading ANY source file (`.py`, `.js`, `.jsx`, `.mjs`, `.cjs`, `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.vue`), FIRST `Read .cdd/code-map.yml`.
+
+The map is the size oracle. For each file you intend to read:
+
+- The header `<path>:  # N lines` tells you how big it is.
+- If `N <= 300`: do a full `Read`.
+- If `N > 300`: use the map's `classes:` / `functions:` (and for TS files,
+  `interfaces:` / `types:` / `enums:`) `lines: A-B` field and
+  `Read <path> offset:A limit:(B-A+1)`.
+
+If `.cdd/code-map.yml` is missing or `cdd-kit gate` reports it stale,
+do NOT proceed by reading whole files. Emit an agent-log with
+`status: needs-review` and `next-action: "regenerate code-map (run cdd-kit code-map)"`.
+
+See `references/code-map-protocol.md` for the full protocol.

-- `state-coverage`: list of `<screen>: empty/loading/error/success` matrix
-- `copy-issues`: count + severity
-- `accessibility-findings`: count + severity

+`artifacts` is a YAML array of `{type, pointer}` items in your agent log

+checklist). Do NOT write top-level `files-changed:` / `tests-added:` keys —
+those are `type` values, not log keys.
+
+Minimum required `type` values for this agent (each must appear at least once
+in your `artifacts:` array; add more items per type as needed):
+
+- `journeys-reviewed`: user journeys covered
+- `state-coverage`: per-journey state coverage
+- `copy-issues`: copy/wording findings count
+- `accessibility-findings`: a11y findings by severity
+
+Copy this exact shape into your agent log; replace each `<pointer>` with a
+concrete pointer (path:line-range, test-id, URL, or pass/fail string):
+
+```yaml
+artifacts:
+  - { type: journeys-reviewed, pointer: "login, password-reset" }
+  - { type: state-coverage, pointer: "login: empty/loading/error/success" }
+  - { type: copy-issues, pointer: "1 medium" }
+  - { type: accessibility-findings, pointer: "0 high, 2 low" }
+```
+
+If a required `type` does not apply to your run, emit one item with
+`pointer: "n/a (<one-line reason>)"` rather than omitting the type — the gate
+counts presence, qa-reviewer audits the reason.
