46

47
- - **Validation gates block absolutely. No assumption (tokens/time). No untested code. Only witnessed execution counts.**
44
+ - **EXECUTE unresolved mutables** → `.prd` PHASE 2 section contains UNKNOWN values → re-enter EXECUTE (broader script), never add stage. **Block at .prd mutable check, not token/time budget.**
45
+ - **PRE-EMIT-TEST fails** → `.prd` shows hypothesis failure → STOP, fix approach, re-test, update PHASE 2, retry EMIT. Do not proceed if mutable shows failure state.
46
+ - **POST-EMIT-VALIDATION fails** → `.prd` PHASE 3 mutable contradicts PHASE 2 → STOP, fix code, re-EMIT, re-validate. Update PHASE 3. NEVER proceed to VERIFY with contradictory mutables.** (consequence: broken production)
47
+ - **Mutable state is gate**: Check `.prd` at every transition. UNKNOWN/unwitnessed = absolute block. No assumption. No token budget pressure. Only witnessed execution (recorded in `.prd` phases) counts.
48
+ - **Never report progress to user about mutables.** Update `.prd` only. Absence of updates in `.prd` PHASE 2/3 = work incomplete regardless of conversational claims.

Longer = better. Missing = missing work.
56
+ **Content Structure**:
57
+ ```
58
+ ## ITEMS (work tasks - removed when complete)
59
+ - [ ] Task 1 (blocks: Task 2)
60
+ - Mutable: fileCreated=UNKNOWN (expect: true)
61
+ - Mutable: apiResponse<100ms=UNKNOWN (expect: true)
62
+ - Edge case: corrupted input → expect error recovery
63
+ - [ ] Task 2 (blocked-by: Task 1)
64
+ ...
65
+
66
+ ## MUTABLES TRACKING (Phase 1: PLAN)
67
+ - fileCreated: UNKNOWN | expected=true
68
+ - apiResponse<100ms: UNKNOWN | expected=true
69
+ - errorHandling: UNKNOWN | expected=graceful-recovery
70
+ - edgeCaseX: UNKNOWN | expected=handled
71
+ ...
72
+
73
+ ## MUTABLES VALIDATION (Phase 2: EXECUTE/PRE-EMIT-TEST)
74
+ - fileCreated: UNKNOWN → true (witnessed: ls output at 12:34)
75
+ - apiResponse<100ms: UNKNOWN → true (witnessed: 45ms from 10 requests)
76
+ - errorHandling: UNKNOWN → graceful-recovery (witnessed: error test passed)
77
+ - edgeCaseX: UNKNOWN → handled (witnessed: edge test passed)
78
+ ...
79
+
80
+ ## MUTABLES VERIFICATION (Phase 3: POST-EMIT-VALIDATION/VERIFY)
81
+ - fileCreated: true (witnessed again: modified disk code, ls confirms)
82
+ - apiResponse<100ms: true (witnessed again: 10 reqs, all <100ms)
83
+ - errorHandling: graceful-recovery (witnessed again: error test on modified code)
84
+ - edgeCaseX: handled (witnessed again: edge test on modified code)
85
+ ...
86
+ ```
87
+
88
+ **The Rule**: Work is complete when:
89
+ 1. All ITEMS removed (tasks done)
90
+ 2. All MUTABLES in PHASE 1 section (plan exhaustive)
91
+ 3. All MUTABLES transitioned UNKNOWN → witnessed_value in PHASE 2 (execution proven)
92
+ 4. All MUTABLES re-validated in PHASE 3 (modified code confirmed)
93
+ 5. All sections signed off: "All mutables resolved, all edge cases tested, all policies met, zero assumptions"
56
94
 
57
- **Structure**: Dependency graph (item lists blocks/blocked-by). Independent items group into parallel waves (≤3 gm:gm agents per wave). Complete wave → remove finished items → launch next ≤3-wave. Never sequential independent work. Never >3 agents at once.
95
+ **Absence = Incompleteness**: Mutable in `.prd` not yet moved to PHASE 2 = work blocked. Mutable in PHASE 2 without witnessed value = incomplete execution. Mutable in PHASE 3 showing inconsistency = failure in validation.
58
96
 
59
- **Lifecycle**: Frozen at creation. Only mutation: remove completed items. Never add post-creation (unless user requests). No reorg. Discovery during execution = complete items, surface findings to user. Stop hook blocks session end if items remain. Empty `.prd` = complete.
97
+ **Never Remove Mutables Conversationally**: Do not tell user "mutable X is resolved." Instead, update `.prd` MUTABLES sections with witnessed values. Work progression is .prd evolution, not narration.
60
98
 
61
- **Path**: Exactly `./.prd` in CWD. No variants, subdirs, transformations.
99
+ **Lifecycle**:
100
+ 1. PLAN phase: Enumerate all unknowns in PHASE 1 section. Frozen until execution begins.
101
+ 2. EXECUTE phase: Move mutables to PHASE 2, assign witnessed values.
102
+ 3. VALIDATE phase: Move mutables to PHASE 3, re-confirm on actual modified disk code.
103
+ 4. Only when all three sections consistent and complete = mark `.prd` done (last line: "COMPLETE").
104
+
105
+ **Path**: Exactly `./.prd` in CWD. No variants, subdirs, transformations. Non-empty `.prd` (except final "COMPLETE" marker) = work incomplete, block GIT-PUSH.

  **GATE RULES**:
46
- - EXECUTE unresolved → re-enter EXECUTE (broader script), never add stage
47
- - PRE-EMIT-TEST fails → STOP, fix approach, re-test, retry EMIT
48
- - **POST-EMIT-VALIDATION fails → STOP, fix code, re-EMIT, re-validate. NEVER proceed to VERIFY with untested disk code.** (consequence: broken production)
49
- - **Validation gates block absolutely. No assumption (tokens/time). No untested code. Only witnessed execution counts.**
46
+ - **EXECUTE unresolved mutables** → `.prd` PHASE 2 section contains UNKNOWN values → re-enter EXECUTE (broader script), never add stage. **Block at .prd mutable check, not token/time budget.**
47
+ - **PRE-EMIT-TEST fails** → `.prd` shows hypothesis failure → STOP, fix approach, re-test, update PHASE 2, retry EMIT. Do not proceed if mutable shows failure state.
48
+ - **POST-EMIT-VALIDATION fails** → `.prd` PHASE 3 mutable contradicts PHASE 2 → STOP, fix code, re-EMIT, re-validate. Update PHASE 3. NEVER proceed to VERIFY with contradictory mutables.** (consequence: broken production)
49
+ - **Mutable state is gate**: Check `.prd` at every transition. UNKNOWN/unwitnessed = absolute block. No assumption. No token budget pressure. Only witnessed execution (recorded in `.prd` phases) counts.
50
+ - **Never report progress to user about mutables.** Update `.prd` only. Absence of updates in `.prd` PHASE 2/3 = work incomplete regardless of conversational claims.
50
51
 
51
52
  **Execute via Bash/agent-browser. Do all work yourself. Never handoff, never assume, never fabricate. Delete dead code. Prefer libraries. Build minimal system.**

58
+ **Content Structure**:
59
+ ```
60
+ ## ITEMS (work tasks - removed when complete)
61
+ - [ ] Task 1 (blocks: Task 2)
62
+ - Mutable: fileCreated=UNKNOWN (expect: true)
63
+ - Mutable: apiResponse<100ms=UNKNOWN (expect: true)
64
+ - Edge case: corrupted input → expect error recovery
65
+ - [ ] Task 2 (blocked-by: Task 1)
66
+ ...
67
+
68

70
+ - apiResponse<100ms: UNKNOWN | expected=true
71
+ - errorHandling: UNKNOWN | expected=graceful-recovery
72
+ - edgeCaseX: UNKNOWN | expected=handled
73
+ ...
74
+
75
+ ## MUTABLES VALIDATION (Phase 2: EXECUTE/PRE-EMIT-TEST)
76
+ - fileCreated: UNKNOWN → true (witnessed: ls output at 12:34)
77
+ - apiResponse<100ms: UNKNOWN → true (witnessed: 45ms from 10 requests)
78
+ - errorHandling: UNKNOWN → graceful-recovery (witnessed: error test passed)
79
+ - edgeCaseX: UNKNOWN → handled (witnessed: edge test passed)
80
+ ...
81
+
82
+ ## MUTABLES VERIFICATION (Phase 3: POST-EMIT-VALIDATION/VERIFY)
83
+ - fileCreated: true (witnessed again: modified disk code, ls confirms)
84
+ - apiResponse<100ms: true (witnessed again: 10 reqs, all <100ms)
85
+ - errorHandling: graceful-recovery (witnessed again: error test on modified code)
86
+ - edgeCaseX: handled (witnessed again: edge test on modified code)
87
+ ...
88
+ ```
89
+
90
+ **The Rule**: Work is complete when:
91
+ 1. All ITEMS removed (tasks done)
92
+ 2. All MUTABLES in PHASE 1 section (plan exhaustive)
93
+ 3. All MUTABLES transitioned UNKNOWN → witnessed_value in PHASE 2 (execution proven)
94
+ 4. All MUTABLES re-validated in PHASE 3 (modified code confirmed)
95
+ 5. All sections signed off: "All mutables resolved, all edge cases tested, all policies met, zero assumptions"
58
96
 
59
- **Structure**: Dependency graph (item lists blocks/blocked-by). Independent items group into parallel waves (≤3 gm:gm agents per wave). Complete wave → remove finished items → launch next ≤3-wave. Never sequential independent work. Never >3 agents at once.
97
+ **Absence = Incompleteness**: Mutable in `.prd` not yet moved to PHASE 2 = work blocked. Mutable in PHASE 2 without witnessed value = incomplete execution. Mutable in PHASE 3 showing inconsistency = failure in validation.
60
98
 
61
- **Lifecycle**: Frozen at creation. Only mutation: remove completed items. Never add post-creation (unless user requests). No reorg. Discovery during execution = complete items, surface findings to user. Stop hook blocks session end if items remain. Empty `.prd` = complete.
99
+ **Never Remove Mutables Conversationally**: Do not tell user "mutable X is resolved." Instead, update `.prd` MUTABLES sections with witnessed values. Work progression is .prd evolution, not narration.
62
100
 
63
- **Path**: Exactly `./.prd` in CWD. No variants, subdirs, transformations.
101
+ **Lifecycle**:
102
+ 1. PLAN phase: Enumerate all unknowns in PHASE 1 section. Frozen until execution begins.
103
+ 2. EXECUTE phase: Move mutables to PHASE 2, assign witnessed values.
104
+ 3. VALIDATE phase: Move mutables to PHASE 3, re-confirm on actual modified disk code.
105
+ 4. Only when all three sections consistent and complete = mark `.prd` done (last line: "COMPLETE").
106
+
107
+ **Path**: Exactly `./.prd` in CWD. No variants, subdirs, transformations. Non-empty `.prd` (except final "COMPLETE" marker) = work incomplete, block GIT-PUSH.

311
+ Before claiming done, verify all gates in `.prd`:
312

313
+ **PLAN GATE** (`.prd` PHASE 1):
314
+ - [ ] All possible unknowns enumerated as mutables

321
+ **EXECUTE/PRE-EMIT-TEST GATE** (`.prd` PHASE 2):
322
+ - [ ] All PHASE 1 mutables moved to PHASE 2
323
+ - [ ] Each mutable transitioned: `UNKNOWN → witnessed_value`
324
+ - [ ] Witnessed value recorded with proof (command output, timestamp, evidence)
325
+ - [ ] Zero UNKNOWN values remain in PHASE 2
326
+ - [ ] All hypotheses tested, real output confirms approach
327
+ - [ ] Zero failures in execution
328
+ - [ ] All `.prd` ITEMS removed (tasks done)
329
+
330
+ **POST-EMIT-VALIDATION/VERIFY GATE** (`.prd` PHASE 3):
331
+ - [ ] All PHASE 2 mutables re-tested on modified disk code
332
+ - [ ] Each mutable in PHASE 3 shows: `value (witnessed again: actual output from disk)`
333
+ - [ ] PHASE 3 mutables match PHASE 2 values—zero contradictions
334
+ - [ ] All scenarios tested on actual modified code
335
+ - [ ] Zero failures in validation
336
+ - [ ] E2E witnessed on running system
337
+
338
+ **QUALITY-AUDIT & FINALIZATION**:
339
+ - [ ] Every changed file inspected line-by-line
340
+ - [ ] Zero surprises, zero violations, zero improvements possible (proven by critique)
341
+ - [ ] `.prd` final section: Sign off: "All mutables resolved. All phases complete. All policies met. Zero unresolved work. READY FOR GIT-PUSH."
342
+ - [ ] Changed files list + critique applied + improvements documented
343
+ - [ ] All 9 platforms build successfully (if applicable)

346
+ - [ ] `.prd` signed complete
347
+ - [ ] `git status --porcelain` empty (zero uncommitted)
348
+ - [ ] `git push` succeeds
349

351
+ - [ ] `.prd` contains only: "COMPLETE" (the final marker)
352
+ - [ ] All three mutable phases signed and dated
353
+ - [ ] All gates passed
354
+ - [ ] Zero user steps remaining
355
+
356
