 ### Handoff convention for sequential Code agents within a ticket
 
-When a ticket requires multiple sequential Code agent phases, each Code agent appends its own `## Phase {N} Implementation Summary` section, at most 8,192 bytes, to `{toplevel}/.devflow/docs/handoff-{branch_slug}.md` (branch-scoped to prevent concurrent session clobber), `{toplevel}` being `git rev-parse --show-toplevel` in the checkout the ticket's branch is in — never a subdirectory.

+- **The Code family writes every fix** — Code for review findings, Fix for gate failures; no other agent type writes code. Finding-verification uses adversarial Review agent-style passes (§6.3 of design doc). Risk-assessment and tech-debt routing live in the post-code pipeline + escalation doctrine.
 - **Always omit `opts.model` with `agentType`.** Each agent honors its own frontmatter model tier; overriding it defeats the per-agent specialization.
 - **Review agents are focus-parameterized.** Each focus is a SEPARATE `agent()` call with `agentType: "Review"` and the focus baked into the prompt. Do NOT batch multiple focuses into one Review agent call — that defeats parallel specialization.
 - **Do not depend on agents enumerating their own skills.** Skills are loaded (spike F5 confirmed) but self-reporting is imperfect. Write agent prompts that give the agent full context directly.

-3. **All written code passes Gate 1.** No code merge, commit, or handoff before Simplify agent + Scrutinize agent + Validate agent (in that order — Validate last, so its one run covers the commits of the two before it).
+3. **All written code passes Gate 1.** No code merge, commit, or handoff before Polish agent + Harden agent + Validate agent (in that order — Validate last, so its one run covers the commits of the two before it).
 4. **Gate 2 runs once, at implementation acceptance.** It does not re-run after review-fixes.
 5. **NEVER auto-merge to main or master.** All merges target the integration branch. The user merges to main themselves.
 6. **No unauthorized tracker or remote side-effects.** Sub-agents NEVER create issues/PRs on the tracker, comment on them, or push beyond the ticket-authorized branch unless the ticket, plan, or user explicitly authorizes that exact action. This applies to whatever tracker is resolved, not to one vendor. Proposed follow-ups go in the run report.
