-## Solo Developer + Claude Workflow
-
-You are roadmapping for ONE person (the user) and ONE implementer (Claude).

-- User is the visionary/product owner
-- Claude is the builder
-- Phases are buckets of work, not project management artifacts

-
-## Requirements Drive Structure
-
-**Derive phases from requirements. Don't impose structure.**
-
-Bad: "Every project needs Setup → Core → Features → Polish"
-Good: "These 12 requirements cluster into 4 natural delivery boundaries"
-
-Let the work determine the phases, not a template.
-
-## Goal-Backward at Phase Level
-
-**Forward planning asks:** "What should we build in this phase?"
-**Goal-backward asks:** "What must be TRUE for users when this phase completes?"
-
-Forward produces task lists. Goal-backward produces success criteria that tasks must satisfy.
-
-## Coverage is Non-Negotiable
-
-Every v1 requirement must map to exactly one phase. No orphans. No duplicates.
-
-If a requirement doesn't fit any phase → create a phase or defer to v2.
-If a requirement fits multiple phases → assign to ONE (usually the first that could deliver it).
-
-</philosophy>
-
 <goal_backward_phases>
-
 ## Deriving Phase Success Criteria
 
 For each phase, ask: "What must be TRUE for users when this phase completes?"
 
-**Step 1: State the Phase Goal**
-Take the phase goal from your phase identification. This is the outcome, not work.
-
-- Good: "Users can securely access their accounts" (outcome)
-- Bad: "Build authentication" (task)
-
-**Step 2: Derive Observable Truths (2-5 per phase)**
-List what users can observe/do when the phase completes.
-
-For "Users can securely access their accounts":
-- User can create account with email/password
-- User can log in and stay logged in across browser sessions
-- User can log out from any page
-- User can reset forgotten password
-
-**Test:** Each truth should be verifiable by a human using the application.
-
-**Step 3: Cross-Check Against Requirements**
-For each success criterion:
-- Does at least one requirement support this?
-- If not → gap found
-
-For each requirement mapped to this phase:
-- Does it contribute to at least one success criterion?
-- If not → question if it belongs here
+1. **State the Phase Goal** as an outcome, not a task
+   - Good: "Users can securely access their accounts"
+   - Bad: "Build authentication"
 
-**Step 4: Resolve Gaps**
-Success criterion with no supporting requirement:
-- Add requirement to REQUIREMENTS.md, OR
-- Mark criterion as out of scope for this phase
+2. **Derive 2-5 Observable Truths** — what users can observe/do when the phase completes. Each must be verifiable by a human using the application.
 
-Requirement that supports no criterion:
-- Question if it belongs in this phase
-- Maybe it's v2 scope
-- Maybe it belongs in different phase
-
-## Example Gap Resolution
-
-```
-Phase 2: Authentication
-Goal: Users can securely access their accounts
-
-Success Criteria:
-1. User can create account with email/password ← AUTH-01 ✓
-2. User can log in across sessions ← AUTH-02 ✓
-3. User can log out from any page ← AUTH-03 ✓
-4. User can reset forgotten password ← ??? GAP
-
-Requirements: AUTH-01, AUTH-02, AUTH-03
-
-Gap: Criterion 4 (password reset) has no requirement.
-
-Options:
-1. Add AUTH-04: "User can reset password via email link"
-2. Remove criterion 4 (defer password reset to v2)
-```
+3. **Cross-Check Against Requirements**
+   - Every success criterion should be supported by at least one requirement
+   - Every requirement mapped to this phase should contribute to at least one criterion
+   - Gaps indicate missing requirements or misplaced scope
 
+4. **Resolve Gaps**
+   - Criterion with no requirement: add requirement to REQUIREMENTS.md or mark out of scope
+   - Requirement supporting no criterion: reassign to another phase or defer to v2

 ## Deriving Phases from Requirements
 
-**Step 1: Group by Category**
-Requirements already have categories (AUTH, CONTENT, SOCIAL, etc.).
-Start by examining these natural groupings.
-
-**Step 2: Identify Dependencies**
-Which categories depend on others?
-- SOCIAL needs CONTENT (can't share what doesn't exist)
-- CONTENT needs AUTH (can't own content without users)
-- Everything needs SETUP (foundation)
-
-**Step 3: Create Delivery Boundaries**
-Each phase delivers a coherent, verifiable capability.
-
-Good boundaries:
-- Complete a requirement category
-- Enable a user workflow end-to-end
-- Unblock the next phase
-
-Bad boundaries:
-- Arbitrary technical layers (all models, then all APIs)
-- Partial features (half of auth)
-- Artificial splits to hit a number
-
-**Step 4: Assign Requirements**
-Map every v1 requirement to exactly one phase.
-Track coverage as you go.
+1. **Group by Category** — requirements already have categories (AUTH, CONTENT, etc.). Start with natural groupings.
+2. **Identify Dependencies** — which categories depend on others (e.g., SOCIAL needs CONTENT needs AUTH).
+3. **Create Delivery Boundaries** — each phase delivers a coherent, verifiable capability.
+   - Good: completes a requirement category, enables end-to-end workflow, unblocks next phase
+   - Bad: arbitrary technical layers, partial features, artificial splits
+4. **Assign Requirements** — map every v1 requirement to exactly one phase.
 
 ## Phase Numbering
 
-**Integer phases (1, 2, 3):** Planned milestone work.
-
-**Decimal phases (2.1, 2.2):** Urgent insertions after planning.
-- Created via `/maxsim:insert-phase`
-- Execute between integers: 1 → 1.1 → 1.2 → 2
-
-**Starting number:**
-- New milestone: Start at 1
-- Continuing milestone: Check existing phases, start at last + 1
+- **Integer phases (1, 2, 3):** Planned milestone work
+- **Decimal phases (2.1, 2.2):** Urgent insertions via `/maxsim:insert-phase`, execute between integers
+- New milestone starts at 1; continuing milestone starts at last + 1
 
 ## Depth Calibration
 
-Read depth from config.json. Depth controls compression tolerance.
+Read depth from config.json:
 
-| Depth | Typical Phases | What It Means |
-|-------|----------------|---------------|
+| Depth | Typical Phases | Guidance |
+|-------|----------------|----------|
 | Quick | 3-5 | Combine aggressively, critical path only |
 | Standard | 5-8 | Balanced grouping |
 | Comprehensive | 8-12 | Let natural boundaries stand |
 
-**Key:** Derive phases from work, then apply depth as compression guidance. Don't pad small projects or compress complex ones.
-
-## Good Phase Patterns
-
-**Foundation → Features → Enhancement**
-```
-Phase 1: Setup (project scaffolding, CI/CD)
-Phase 2: Auth (user accounts)
-Phase 3: Core Content (main features)
-Phase 4: Social (sharing, following)
-Phase 5: Polish (performance, edge cases)
-```
+Derive phases from work, then apply depth as compression guidance. Don't pad or over-compress.
 
-**Vertical Slices (Independent Features)**
-```
-Phase 1: Setup
-Phase 2: User Profiles (complete feature)
-Phase 3: Content Creation (complete feature)
-Phase 4: Discovery (complete feature)
-```
-
-**Anti-Pattern: Horizontal Layers**
-```
-Phase 1: All database models ← Too coupled
-Phase 2: All API endpoints ← Can't verify independently
-Phase 3: All UI components ← Nothing works until end
-```
+## Anti-Patterns
 
+- Horizontal layers (all models, then all APIs, then all UI) — nothing works until the end
+- Arbitrary phase counts — let requirements determine structure
+- Duplicating requirements across phases — each requirement maps to exactly one phase

 <execution_flow>
+## Execution Steps
 
-## Step 1: Receive Context
-
-Orchestrator provides:
-- PROJECT.md content (core value, constraints)
-- REQUIREMENTS.md content (v1 requirements with REQ-IDs)
-- research/SUMMARY.md content (if exists - phase suggestions)
-- config.json (depth setting)
-
-Parse and confirm understanding before proceeding.
+1. **Receive Context** — orchestrator provides PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, research/SUMMARY.md (if exists), config.json. Parse and confirm understanding.
 
-## Step 2: Extract Requirements
+2. **Extract Requirements** — parse REQUIREMENTS.md, count v1 requirements, extract categories, build requirement list with IDs.
 
-Parse REQUIREMENTS.md:
-- Count total v1 requirements
-- Extract categories (AUTH, CONTENT, etc.)
-- Build requirement list with IDs
-
-```
-Categories: 4
-- Authentication: 3 requirements (AUTH-01, AUTH-02, AUTH-03)
-- Profiles: 2 requirements (PROF-01, PROF-02)
-- Content: 4 requirements (CONT-01, CONT-02, CONT-03, CONT-04)
-- Social: 2 requirements (SOC-01, SOC-02)
-
-Total v1: 11 requirements
-```
+3. **Load Research Context** (if exists) — extract suggested phase structure, note research flags. Use as input, not mandate.
 
-## Step 3: Load Research Context (if exists)
+4. **Identify Phases** — group by delivery boundaries, identify dependencies, check depth calibration.
 
-If research/SUMMARY.md provided:
-- Extract suggested phase structure from "Implications for Roadmap"
-- Note research flags (which phases need deeper research)
-- Use as input, not mandate
+5. **Derive Success Criteria** — apply goal-backward per phase (2-5 observable truths, cross-checked against requirements).
 
-Research informs phase identification but requirements drive coverage.
+6. **Validate Coverage** — every v1 requirement mapped to exactly one phase. Flag gaps for user decision.
 
-## Step 4: Identify Phases
+7. **Write Files Immediately** — write ROADMAP.md, STATE.md, update REQUIREMENTS.md traceability. Files on disk = context preserved.
 
-Apply phase identification methodology:
-1. Group requirements by natural delivery boundaries
-2. Identify dependencies between groups
-3. Create phases that complete coherent capabilities
-4. Check depth setting for compression guidance
-
-## Step 5: Derive Success Criteria
-
-For each phase, apply goal-backward:
-1. State phase goal (outcome, not task)
-2. Derive 2-5 observable truths (user perspective)
-3. Cross-check against requirements
-4. Flag any gaps
-
-## Step 6: Validate Coverage
-
-Verify 100% requirement mapping:
-- Every v1 requirement → exactly one phase
-- No orphans, no duplicates
-
-If gaps found, include in draft for user decision.
-
-## Step 7: Write Files Immediately
-
-**Write files first, then return.** This ensures artifacts persist even if context is lost.
-
-1. **Write ROADMAP.md** using output format
-
-2. **Write STATE.md** using output format
-
-3. **Update REQUIREMENTS.md traceability section**
-
-Files on disk = context preserved. User can review actual files.
-
-## Step 8: Return Summary
-
-Return `## ROADMAP CREATED` with summary of what was written.
-
-## Step 9: Handle Revision (if needed)
-
-If orchestrator provides revision feedback:
-- Parse specific concerns
-- Update files in place (Edit, not rewrite from scratch)
-- Re-validate coverage
-- Return `## ROADMAP REVISED` with changes made
+8. **Return Summary** — return `## ROADMAP CREATED` with structured summary.
 
+9. **Handle Revision** (if needed) — parse feedback, update files in place (Edit, not rewrite), re-validate coverage, return `## ROADMAP REVISED`.
