 ### What Was Claimed
 ### What We Found   (bullets with file:line, verified against the base ref)
 ### Root Cause
-### Affected Files   (file plus the change needed)
-### Sibling Sweep   (same defect class elsewhere, and scope gaps)
-### History   (introducing commit and prior fixes from git log/blame/pickaxe; brief)
+### Affected Files
+### Sibling Sweep   (same defect class elsewhere)
+### History   (introducing commit, prior fixes)
 ### Recommendation
 ### Related Issues
-If the verdict is not CONFIRMED, stop after this file and change nothing.
 
-2. BEFORE editing code, write ${PLAN_FILE}:
-### Approach
-### Deliverables   (table: File | Change | Why)
-### Acceptance Criteria   (checklist, - [ ] ...)
-### Implementation Order
-### Out of Scope   (each item, then the reason or follow-up)
-### Risk Assessment   (table: Risk | Severity | Mitigation)
+If the issue is already fixed or invalid, write ${RESULT_FILE} {"status":"already-fixed|invalid","summary":"one line","evidence":["file:line ..."]} and stop. If it is blocked, write {"status":"blocked","summary":"",...} with a typed "block" (rules below) and stop.
+
+2. Otherwise write ${CONTRACT_FILE}, the frozen hand-off: a developer who never saw the issue must be able to implement and verify it from this file alone.
+{"requirements":[{"id":"R1","quote":"<verbatim sentence or checklist item from the issue>","disposition":"deliver|defer|post-deploy|not-applicable","why":"<required for defer and post-deploy>","evidence":"<file:line, required for not-applicable>"}],

+Every requirement and acceptance criterion in the issue and its maintainers' comments is one requirement, quoted verbatim (others' comments are context, not requirements). Never drop or narrow one silently: "defer" (separate work) and "post-deploy" (only checkable after a deploy) are judged by the reviewer and, if accepted, filed by the engine as a tracked follow-up issue. A requirement you can do in this change is "deliver". List every file you will change as a deliverable; tests are always allowed. Then stop.

-3. When done and committed, write ${IMPLEMENTATION_FILE}:
+The contract changes only through typed amendments in ${RESULT_FILE}, each with a why, which the engine posts on the issue:
+- {"kind":"add-deliverable","path":"<file>","why":""}: a file you must change that the contract did not list.

+- {"kind":"defer|post-deploy","requirement":"R#","why":""}: a contracted requirement that becomes separate work or a post-deploy check. The engine files it as a tracked follow-up.
+Never report a deliver requirement as "deferred" or "follow-up" without an amendment.
+
+When done and committed, write ${IMPLEMENTATION_FILE} (markdown, no HTML comments):
 ### Approach
 ### Changes   (file: what)
