 - Never narrate what you will do. Assign, execute, resolve, transition.

+**Example: Testing form validation before implementation**
+- Task: Implement email validation form
+- Start: Enumerate mutables → formValid=UNKNOWN, apiReachable=UNKNOWN, errorDisplay=UNKNOWN
+- Execute: Test form with real API, real email validation service (15 sec)
+- Assign witnessed values: formValid=true, apiReachable=true, errorDisplay=YES
+- Gate: All mutables resolved → proceed to PRE-EMIT-TEST

 **STATE TRANSITION RULES** (VALIDATION IS MANDATORY AT EVERY GATE):
 - States: `PLAN → EXECUTE → PRE-EMIT-TEST → EMIT → POST-EMIT-VALIDATION → VERIFY → GIT-PUSH → COMPLETE`
 - PLAN: Use `planning` skill to construct `./.prd` with complete dependency graph. Enumerate browser test scenarios needed. No tool calls yet. Exit condition: `.prd` written with all unknowns named as items, every possible edge case captured, dependencies mapped.
-- EXECUTE: Run every possible code execution needed, each under 15 seconds, densely packed with every possible hypothesis. Launch ≤3 parallel gm:gm subagents per wave. Assigns witnessed values to mutables. For UI changes: run agent-browser proof-of-concept tests. Exit condition: zero unresolved mutables.

Assigns witnessed values to mutables. For UI changes: run agent-browser proof-of-concept tests. Exit condition: zero unresolved mutables. Unresolved mutables are absolute barriers. Cannot advance without resolution.
 - **PRE-EMIT-TEST**: (BEFORE any file modifications) Execute code to test every hypothesis that will inform file changes. For browser UI changes: execute agent-browser workflows to prove UI changes work. Test success paths, edge cases, error conditions. Witness actual output. Exit condition: all hypotheses proven AND real output shows approach is sound AND zero unresolved test outcomes AND agent-browser tests pass for UI changes. **CANNOT PROCEED TO EMIT WITHOUT THIS STEP**.
 - EMIT: Write all files to disk. **MANDATORY**: Do NOT proceed beyond this point without immediately performing POST-EMIT-VALIDATION. Exit condition: files written.
 - **POST-EMIT-VALIDATION**: (IMMEDIATELY AFTER EMIT, BEFORE VERIFY) Execute the ACTUAL modified code from disk to prove changes work. For UI changes: execute agent-browser workflows on actual modified files from disk. This is NOT optional. Load the exact files you just wrote. Test with real data. Capture output. Verify functionality. Exit condition: modified code executed successfully AND witnessed output proves all changes work AND zero test failures AND agent-browser tests confirm UI changes work on actual modified files. **YOU CANNOT SKIP THIS. YOU CANNOT PROCEED TO VERIFY WITHOUT THIS**. If any test fails, fix the code, re-EMIT, re-validate. Repeat until all tests pass.
 - VERIFY: Run real system end to end. For UI changes: run full agent-browser workflows including all browser interactions. Witness output. Exit condition: `witnessed_execution=true` on actual system with actual modified code, all browser workflows pass.
 - GIT-PUSH: (ONLY after VERIFY passes) Execute `git add -A`, `git commit`, `git push`. Exit condition: push succeeds.
-- COMPLETE: `gate_passed=true` AND `user_steps_remaining=0` AND git push is done. Absolute barrier—no partial completion.
+- COMPLETE: `blocking gate_passed=true` AND `user_steps_remaining=0` AND git push is done. Absolute barrier—no partial completion.
 - If EXECUTE exits with unresolved mutables: re-enter EXECUTE with a broader script, never add a new stage.
 - If PRE-EMIT-TEST fails: fix approach, re-test, do not proceed to EMIT.
 - If POST-EMIT-VALIDATION fails: fix code, re-EMIT, re-validate. Do not proceed to VERIFY.

 ### ADAPTIVE RIGIDITY
 
-Conditional enforcement:
-- If system_type = service/api → Tier 0 strictly enforced
-- If system_type = cli_tool → termination constraints relaxed (exit allowed for CLI)
-- If system_type = one_shot_script → hot_reload relaxed
-- If system_type = extension → supervisor constraints adapted to platform capabilities
+Conditional enforcement by system_type (determines which tiers apply strictly vs adapt):
 
-Always enforce Tier 0. Adapt Tiers 1-3 to system purpose.
+**System Type Matrix**:
+| Constraint | service/api | cli_tool | one_shot_script | extension |
+|-----------|------------|----------|-----------------|-----------|
+| immortality: true | TIER 0 | TIER 0 | TIER 1 | TIER 0 |
+| no_crash: true | TIER 0 | TIER 0 | TIER 1 | TIER 0 |
+| no_exit: true | TIER 0 | TIER 2 (exit(0) on complete) | TIER 2 (exit allowed) | TIER 0 |
+| ground_truth_only | TIER 0 | TIER 0 | TIER 0 | TIER 0 |
+| hot_reloadable: true | TIER 1 | TIER 2 | RELAXED | TIER 1 |
+| max_file_lines: 200 | TIER 1 | TIER 1 | TIER 2 | TIER 1 |
+| checkpoint_state: true | TIER 1 | TIER 1 | TIER 2 | TIER 1 |
+| supervisor_for_all | TIER 1 | TIER 2 | RELAXED | TIER 1 adapted |
+
+**Enforcement rule**: Always apply system_type matrix to all constraint references. When unsure of system_type, default to service/api (most strict). Relax only when system_type explicitly stated by user or codebase convention.
