 ## Why It Exists
 
 Coding agents can move quickly inside one thread and still drift when a new chat, model, tool, reviewer or debugging session loses the project-specific facts that were never encoded anywhere stable.
-
+
 Minimal Context Harness creates a small, explicit recovery path: project goal, boundaries, architecture context, validation entry points and durable task conclusions. It is designed to sit beside specs, tests, issues, docs and code intelligence tools instead of replacing them.
 
-The core bet is: **keep the memory, drop the ceremony**. Earlier stage-based workflows pushed ordinary software work through explicit phase artifacts and gates. Modern coding agents already internalize much of the understand, design, implement, test and repair loop, so Project Tiny Context Harness keeps the high-density repo context that survives fresh chats without making every task follow SDLC-stage choreography.

 For product, UI/UX and engineering tasks that touch design intent, API/Schema, state/runtime behavior, architecture boundaries or verification design, the default Skills compile a short current-task contract before implementation. The contract starts with `Context Delta: none|required`; `required` preserves context-first behavior, while `none` means the task can proceed against existing Context. For engineering, RFC and implementation work, the existing Task Contract also includes `Modularity Check: none|required|exception` so oversized touched files trigger split-or-exception reasoning. For module design work, the development engineer Skill also compiles `Applicable Module Design`: the relevant principles, minimal design logic and durable rationale that control the current implementation or verification choice. The task contract and Contract Conformance are handoff evidence, not new PRD, tech-plan, validator or gate surfaces.
 
-`sdlc-harness check-modularity` supports that field by auditing selected handwritten source files for physical line-count risk. It is warning-only by default as a report command, while `validate-code-modularity` and `validate-harness` run it as a hard gate. The gate is not `validate-context`: `validate-context` remains pure Context recoverability. When `policy` is `scoped_waivers`, over-limit exceptions must be backed by `<harnessRoot>/config.yaml` `modularity.waivers` entries with `path`, narrow `category`, `reason` and `future_split_boundary`; handoff prose alone is not a machine waiver.
+For long-running plans, RFCs or implementation proposals, the plan acceptance checklist Skill can turn a plan plus relevant Context into a falsifiable acceptance checklist and a paste-ready goal/target-mode prompt. It is one pre-execution acceptance pass, not a task planner or workflow engine: it stores temporary inputs under `tmp/ty-context/plan-acceptance/**`, asks for confirmation when durable assumptions are unclear, and leaves execution evidence to the future executor, tests, CI, review or human acceptance.
+
+For Product Surface work, `context_surface_contract` turns broad product/page/UI principles into project-owned surface responsibilities. A Product Surface can be a Web page, mobile screen, desktop window, game UI/HUD/menu, CLI/TUI output, extension UI or embedded/device interface. Cross-surface contracts use the existing `contract` role; area-owned screen facts stay in `area` or `subdomain`; repeatable validation paths use `verification`. The Harness does not add a new surface-specific role, does not create business surface contracts during `init` or `upgrade`, and does not turn surface conformance into a validator gate. Projects that want mandatory task blocks should add a separate project-local Skill, while `product-surface-contract.md` is only a compact managed template for optional Context authoring.
+
+To create Product Surface Context in a user project, use the Skill through an agent because the package cannot safely infer business-specific screen duties from code alone. For a new project, `init` installs the Skill, template and routing guidance; as the project grows, ask the agent to run Product Surface Audit / Compile when a durable surface appears or when a product/UI/engineering task changes main/drilldown ownership. For an existing project, first run `ty-context upgrade`; then ask the agent to backfill the current surface responsibilities, review the proposed contract, and only then apply it to `project_context/**`:
+
+```text
+Use context_surface_contract in Audit + Compile mode for this repo. Inspect current user-facing routes, screens, panels, CLI/TUI outputs and relevant Context. Propose Product Surface Contract Context using existing roles only. Do not edit product code.
+```
+
+After review, apply the approved contract:
+
+```text
+Apply the approved Product Surface Contract to project_context/**, update project_context/context.toml if a new contract file is needed, keep roles to contract/area/subdomain/verification, and run make validate-context.
+```
+
+`ty-context check-modularity` supports that field by auditing selected handwritten source files for physical line-count risk. It is warning-only by default as a report command, while `validate-code-modularity` and `validate-harness` run it as a hard gate. The gate is not `validate-context`: `validate-context` remains pure Context recoverability.

 Multilingual trigger phrases are compatibility details. Public README, npm and launch copy stay English-first, and public/package-managed surfaces must remain English-complete; literal non-English examples are documented only where they explain generated Skill matching and must not be the sole activation path.
 
-The Harness upgrade Skill exists so consumer agents have a short, repeatable upgrade procedure for existing projects. It treats `sdlc-harness upgrade` as the default command after package updates, forbids standalone `sync` before upgrade, and limits manual handling to the migration scope reported by the CLI instead of guessing project semantics.
-
-For complex task-contract work, agents may use `plan.md` or an equivalent temporary plan surface as scratch space for `Context Delta`, `Task Contract`, implementation steps and Conformance notes. It is execution cache only: durable facts must be extracted into `project_context/**` or `DESIGN.md`, and temporary plans are not Context, not registered in `context.toml` and not default project assets.
-
-For Web pages, frontend layout, UI/UX, product module boundaries or decisions about where information belongs, agents should run a lightweight page product-positioning check before deciding whether the change is context-first. The check asks what judgment the user needs to make on the page, what information/actions/feedback the product must provide, what should not be persistent, what belongs in downstream consumption, ops, detail or another page, and whether layout and information density match the page task. If ownership is unclear, inspect the relevant pages and Context first. The check is input to change classification: it does not by itself require a Context update, new document chain or validator gate.
-
-The expected Context Priority Ladder is: read Context first, run the page product-positioning check when applicable, classify durable-fact impact or use `Context Delta` inside task-contract scenarios, choose context-first or code-first, then perform Contract Conformance when applicable and Context drift check before handoff. This is prompt-level guidance, not an edit-order validator.
-
-Managed `AGENTS.md` guidance is intentionally a startup router, not a full manual. It should contain fact-source entry points, hard boundaries, key triggers and shortest validation commands; package consumers default long design reasoning to Context unless they already have a local spec/design convention. The source repository keeps stable Harness workflow rationale in `PROJECT_SPEC.md`. Role procedures belong in Skills and human usage guidance in README. The recommended 40-70 line range is a soft budget, not a validator gate.

-`project_context/context.toml` is the Schema v4 Context graph manifest. `init` creates a default `main` product/domain area for ordinary projects and registers `project_context/areas/main/verification.md` as its default `verification` role Context. `upgrade` creates a conservative baseline manifest for existing projects by registering current `project_context/areas/**/*.md` files as areas, except obvious `verification.md` and `deployment.md` role files.

+The Harness upgrade Skill exists so consumer agents have a short, repeatable upgrade procedure for existing projects. It treats `ty-context upgrade` as the default command after package updates, forbids standalone `sync` before upgrade, and limits manual handling to the migration scope reported by the CLI instead of guessing project semantics.
+
+For complex task-contract work, agents may use `plan.md` or an equivalent temporary plan surface as scratch space for `Context Delta`, `Task Contract`, implementation steps and Conformance notes. It is execution cache only: durable facts must be extracted into `project_context/**` or `DESIGN.md`, and temporary plans are not Context, not registered in `context.toml` and not default project assets.
+
+For Product Surface work, frontend layout, UI/UX, product module boundaries or decisions about where information belongs, agents should run a lightweight product/page positioning check before deciding whether the change is context-first. The check asks what judgment the user needs to make on the surface, what information/actions/feedback the product must provide, what should not be persistent, what belongs on the main surface versus drilldown, operations, diagnostics, evidence or detail, and whether layout and information density match the surface task. If ownership is unclear, inspect the relevant surfaces and Context first, and use `context_surface_contract` for a focused audit. The check is input to change classification: it does not by itself require a Context update, new role, new document chain or validator gate.
+
+The expected Context Priority Ladder is: read Context first, run the product/page positioning or Surface Contract check when applicable, classify durable-fact impact or use `Context Delta` inside task-contract scenarios, choose context-first or code-first, then perform Contract Conformance when applicable and Context drift check before handoff. This is prompt-level guidance, not an edit-order validator.
+
+Managed `AGENTS.md` guidance is intentionally a startup router, not a full manual. It should contain fact-source entry points, hard boundaries, key triggers and shortest validation commands; package consumers default long design reasoning to Context unless they already have a local spec/design convention. The source repository keeps stable Harness workflow rationale in `PROJECT_SPEC.md`. Role procedures belong in Skills and human usage guidance in README. The recommended 40-70 line range is a soft budget, not a validator gate.

 A module design capsule should stay small and decision-shaped: `Principles` are stable execution constraints, `Design Logic` is the minimum choose/reject/degrade/compose logic, and `Design Rationale` keeps only reasons that change later implementation or verification decisions. Current thresholds, commands and probe parameters belong in the relevant contract or verification Context as execution instances, not as permanent principles.

-Other context files under `project_context/**` can declare `context_role` in front matter or receive a role from `context.toml`. Roles are semantic labels for agent reading and authoring behavior; `validate-context` checks graph structure, paths and field shapes instead of enforcing a writing template for every role. Supported roles are `global`, `architecture`, `area`, `domain`, `subdomain`, `contract`, `foundation`, `verification`, `deployment`, `archive`, `implementation-index` and `decision-rationale`.

-npx --yes --package project-tiny-context-harness@latest sdlc-harness export-context --all --check

-
-This generates both default artifacts with the same timestamp: `tmp/sdlc/context-exports/full-project-context-<timestamp>.md` and `tmp/sdlc/context-exports/code-level-implementation-<timestamp>/code-level-implementation.md`. `--all` does not accept `--output`; use `--full` or `--code` for custom single-artifact paths.
-
-`export-context --full` creates only the temporary Markdown Context bundle:
-
-```sh
-npx --yes --package project-tiny-context-harness@latest sdlc-harness export-context --full
-npx --yes --package project-tiny-context-harness@latest sdlc-harness export-context --full --output tmp/sdlc/context-exports/my-export.md
-npx --yes --package project-tiny-context-harness@latest sdlc-harness export-context --full --check
-```
-
-The default output is `tmp/sdlc/context-exports/full-project-context-<timestamp>.md`. The file title is `# Full Project Context Export`. `--check` reports the planned output path, source count, source file list and warnings without writing a file. The artifact header always says `Export artifact. Do not reference from project_context/context.toml.`
-
-The exporter includes Context files, key README / AGENTS / DESIGN documents, managed Skill guidance, Makefile verification-entry summaries, a directory tree summary and Context code-entry indexes. It excludes `.env*`, secret/token/cookie-oriented files, raw captures, licensed payload dumps, `node_modules`, build output, caches, coverage, test reports and existing export artifacts; obvious sensitive assignment values are redacted and reported as warnings.
-
-`export-context --code` creates one temporary Markdown file for handing the current implementation state to an external model:
-
-```sh

-
-The default output is `tmp/sdlc/context-exports/code-level-implementation-<timestamp>/code-level-implementation.md`. The file title is `# Code-Level Implementation Export`.

It does not split output into multiple Markdown files.

Supported roles are `global`, `architecture`, `area`, `domain`, `subdomain`, `contract`, `foundation`, `verification`, `deployment`, `archive`, `implementation-index` and `decision-rationale`.
+
+Product Surface Contracts use these existing roles. Use `contract` for cross-surface or cross-area files such as `project_context/areas/product-surface-contracts.md`; use `area` or `subdomain` for owned screen contracts inside one domain; use `verification` for repeatable UI/app/CLI surface checks. Do not add roles such as `surface-contract`, `product-surface`, `web-contract`, `app-contract` or `game-surface`.
+
+`init` gives new projects the Product Surface Contract capability, not a pre-filled business contract. The first durable contract is created when a user or agent explicitly audits/compiles a surface responsibility and writes the approved facts into `project_context/**`. Existing projects receive the same Skill and template after `upgrade`, but `upgrade` intentionally does not inspect current screens or guess their responsibilities; treat Product Surface Context backfill as an explicit follow-up task.

 Verification and deployment role Context are allowed only when a test, smoke, CI, deployment, bootstrap or runtime path has durable recovery value. Record minimal preparation, the shortest command/path, expected stage or signal, acceptable warnings and dead ends already ruled out. Verification paths are reusable execution instances, not independent definitions of capability, metric or acceptance targets; first use the owning module's design Context to decide what claim should be proven, then choose the command or probe. Do not record one-off logs, full output, temporary JSON, CI artifacts, release ledgers, reports, secrets, tokens, cookies, device ids or raw payloads. Put execution details in the owning area's `verification` or `deployment` role Context; use project-level references only for truly cross-domain paths.

-`project_context/**` is authoritative for intended responsibility, ownership, product intent, architecture boundaries, integration direction, allowed or forbidden dependencies and verification/deployment entry paths. Source code is authoritative for current implementation state. If code shape, keyword search results or nearby implementations disagree with Context, agents should call out implementation drift, missing work or stale Context instead of overriding Context-declared ownership or intent.
-
-Before the first code edit, agents should classify the change instead of relying on a fixed timer. Long-term fact changes include product ownership or plans, module responsibilities, information architecture, API / Schema, state-machine or scheduler semantics, cross-area boundaries and verification/deployment entry paths. If a task hits one of these categories, Context-first is the default path and the first update should be the relevant `project_context/**` entry with enough durable context to guide implementation, without a fixed line-count limit:
-
-```text
-context -> implementation -> verification -> context drift check
-```
-
-Code-first is a controlled exception for ordinary bug fixes, local styling changes, local implementation-drift repairs, test fixes and exploratory spikes; those should not update Context unless they produce a durable fact. Once code discovery produces one, the agent should update Context before final alignment or handoff:
-
-```text
-implementation discovery -> context update if long-term fact changed -> implementation alignment -> verification
-```
-
-This ordering is guidance, not a new validator gate. `validate-context` checks recoverability and fake verification claims; it does not infer whether Context or code was edited first.

 The product planning, UI/UX and development engineer Skills are Context authoring helpers. They may shape product plans, screen flows, design handoff, implementation plans or technical decisions, but they do not create a default PRD/UIUX/tech-plan document chain. Their descriptions intentionally avoid broad generic single-word triggers such as product, design or development in any language. For visual systems, `init` creates root `DESIGN.md` as the durable source for colors, typography, spacing, shapes and component tokens; `upgrade` creates it for existing Harness projects when missing. The generated file starts as a neutral starter baseline with visual tokens, background/color logic, typography, spacing, component states and do/don't guidance; user-authored design rules take precedence once present. Validate it with `npx @google/design.md lint DESIGN.md`. The product/design Skills keep compact calibration for product/page positioning, user needs, information density, content/action placement, true empty/error/loading states, layout stability, register choice, design-system continuity and common AI-design anti-patterns.

 ## Sync And Upgrade Boundary
 
 `sync` is intentionally narrow. It refreshes managed files and never generates project semantics. `sync` does not run migrations; if it detects `safe_pending`, `manual_required` or `blocked` migration work, it refuses to write and points the user to `upgrade`.
 
-After updating the package, run `sdlc-harness upgrade`. Use `sync` only when release notes say the update is `sync-only`.
+After updating the package, run `ty-context upgrade`. Use `sync` only when release notes say the update is `sync-only`.
 
 `upgrade` first builds an upgrade plan. If `blocked` items exist, it prints the plan, runs diagnostics and exits non-zero before migrations or internal `sync`. Without blockers, it applies only `safe_pending` migrations, then runs `sync` and `doctor`. If `manual_required` follow-up or diagnostics remain, the command exits non-zero and prints follow-up. `upgrade --check` performs the same planning step without writing files; `upgrade --check --json` is intended for release checks and CI.
