 ## The Artifact Engine
 
-Dev Booster operates an internal **Artifact Engine** (Shadow Memory). As boosters execute, they automatically generate and update machine-readable `.md` files in the background to track history, audits, and architectural decisions. 
+Dev Booster operates an internal **Artifact Engine** (Shadow Memory), but artifact generation is no longer a continuous background behavior for every booster.
+
+### New default behavior
+- exploratory, advisory, and iterative boosters answer in chat first
+- they do **not** create artifacts during normal execution
+- if the result is stable, they may offer to save it at the end of the conversation
+- documentation and persistence boosters may generate a final file only after confirmation
+- no booster should silently keep updating artifact files in the background
+
+This keeps the conversation faster while still preserving the option to materialize important outputs in `@booster-generated/` when the user actually wants them.
+
+### Booster artifact policy
+
+#### 1. No artifact by default — only if the user explicitly asks
+- `advisor.md`
+- `context.md`
+- `debug.md`
+- `deploy.md`
+- `discovery.md`
+- `investigation.md`
+- `planning.md`
+- `security.md`
+
+#### 2. Final artifact only after confirmation
+- `code-audit.md`
+- `global-documentation.md`
+- `implementation.md`
+- `internal-documentation.md`
 
-This creates a persistent "paper trail" that ensures the AI never loses context, even if you continue the work in a brand new chat session.
+#### 3. Persistence-first booster
+- `save-context.md`
 
-Files are systematically organized in the `@booster-generated/` root directory, each booster writing to its own folder:
-- `@booster-generated/context/` (Context assimilation state)
-- `@booster-generated/planning/` (Implementation roadmaps and risk mapping)
-- `@booster-generated/debug/` (Systematic RCA and bug fix logs)
-- `@booster-generated/security/` (Security audit reports)
-- `@booster-generated/code-audit/` (Code audit and diagnostics)
-- `@booster-generated/saved-context/` (Conversation snapshots for chat continuity)
-- `@booster-generated/discovery/`, `@booster-generated/investigation/`, `@booster-generated/advisor/`, `@booster-generated/deploy/`, and more.
+### Artifact locations
+When a user explicitly asks to save or confirms final generation, artifacts are organized under `@booster-generated/`, with each booster writing to its own folder.
 
 ### Manual & Shortcut Triggers
 
 You can take manual control of the kit's governance or instantly route behavior modes at any time using explicit Chat Triggers:
 
 #### 👥 Governance Triggers
-- **`@SaveContext`**: Compacta toda a conversa em YAML para continuar em um novo chat sem perda de contexto. Gera em `@booster-generated/saved-context/context-<slug>.yaml`.
+- **`@SaveContext`**: Compacta toda a conversa em YAML para continuar em um novo chat sem perda de contexto. Gera em `@booster-generated/saved-context/context-<slug>.yaml` após confirmação.
 - **`@SavePattern`**: Instructs the AI to extract a newly resolved technical rule or code pattern and persist it to `.devbooster/rules/USER_PREFERENCES.md`.
 - **`@LogTask`**: Tells the AI to capture a pending technical task and document it systematically in your backlog at `@booster-generated/tasks.md`.

 ## 📂 7. ARTIFACT ENGINE (SHADOW MEMORY)
-Dev Booster acts as a continuous document generator. As boosters execute, they write their history, findings, audits, and implementation plans into structured, machine-readable files. This avoids context loss in long AI conversations and builds a tangible paper trail for the developer.
+Dev Booster no longer treats every booster as a continuous document generator. Artifact creation is now selective and user-controlled: exploratory boosters should stay fast and conversational, while documentation and persistence boosters may generate files only at the end of the flow or after explicit confirmation.
 
 **Target Root Path:** `@booster-generated/`
 
-### Artifact Mapping by Domain:
-- `@booster-generated/advisor/` → Managed by `advisor.md`
-- `@booster-generated/code-audit/` → Managed by `code-audit.md`
-- `@booster-generated/context/` → Managed by `context.md`

+#### A. Optional only on explicit user request
+These boosters must answer in chat first and must NOT create artifacts during normal execution:
+- `advisor.md` → `@booster-generated/advisor/`
+- `context.md` → `@booster-generated/context/`

+- `security.md` → `@booster-generated/security/`
+
+#### B. Final artifact only after confirmation or explicit save intent
+These boosters may generate a final deliverable artifact, but only after the user confirms the final generation step:
+- `code-audit.md` → `@booster-generated/code-audit/`
+- `global-documentation.md` → `@booster-generated/global-documentation/`
+- `implementation.md` → `@booster-generated/implementation/`
+- `internal-documentation.md` → `@booster-generated/internal-documentation/`
+
+#### C. Persistence-first booster
+This booster exists specifically to persist context and may generate its artifact as its primary outcome after confirmation:
+- `save-context.md` → `@booster-generated/saved-context/`
 
 ### Behavior Rules:
 - Each booster writes to its own folder — no overlapping paths.
+- Artifacts are never written silently in the background.
 - Files are never overwritten: if a slug already exists, a variation is generated.
-- The AI must notify the user after writing: 📝 Registo em `@booster-generated/<booster>/<slug>.md`
-- No silent background updates — the user is always informed.
+- When an artifact is written, the AI must notify the user after writing.
+- Exploratory and advisory boosters should prefer chat output over file generation.
+- Documentation and persistence boosters should treat artifact creation as a finalization step, not as a continuous side effect.

+## ARTIFACT POLICY
+- Do NOT create local state files or artifacts during the initial security analysis.
+- Deliver the security findings directly in chat first.
+- Only if the user explicitly asks to persist the result, generate a security report artifact at `@booster-generated/security/<slug>.md`.
+- Do not create or update this artifact silently in the background.
+- After presenting a stable security result, you may end with one short optional offer such as: `If you want, I can save this security report as an artifact.`
+- **Uniqueness rule:** If the slug already exists in `@booster-generated/security/`, generate a new variation of the name instead of overwriting.
+- **Notification rule:** After writing, notify the user with: 📝 Registo em `@booster-generated/security/<slug>.md`.
