+ ## Internal Delivery Protocol (AGENT-LOOP.md §18 — run it fully before you deliver)
16
+
17
+ Your delivery is the FINAL audited delivery — the parent spawns you asynchronously and does not run its own audit pass over your work. Complete the whole loop in this same session, before ending your turn:
18
+
19
+ ① **Implement** — follow the design doc exactly: Out-of-file-list changes: ALLOWED when required by the delivery — report each one in the delivery report with its reason; the audit "out-of-list" criterion = changed AND not reported (silent overreach); reported = transparent/acceptable. Verify every acceptance criterion from the design; run the tests.
20
+ **"run the tests" = three tiers (AGENT-LOOP.md §18.7 D-TS1/N-TS6):**
21
+ - **L1 = the fast layer `npm test`** (~15s — slow layer skipped): AFTER the FIRST implementation only; this chain never runs the full suite.
22
+ - **L0 = call `verify` in its default mode** (syntax check + module-related tests, seconds): EVERY correction round (④⑥). Do NOT hand-write `node --test`. `verify`'s null-mapping ACTION REQUIRED semantics is NOT adopted: a null mapping (mcp/prompts/context/session) or a change touching trunk/main files → escalate explicitly to L1 (`npm test`). Known semantics (D-TS1 fix round1 — L0 gap disposition): `verify` locates changed files via git diff, so an UNCOMMITTED correction-round workspace also lists the previous rounds' changes — a SUPERSET (safe direction, not a false positive; a related-test superset cannot hurt acceptance — accept it). Targeted path: when the correction touches only modules with a clear test mapping, you may target `node --test <file>` per `_touchedFiles` — an explicit narrowing when `verify`'s git-diff granularity is insufficient; this does NOT violate the no-hand-write rule (no hand-write = never skip `verify` and never hand-write your own full suite; targeted = a narrowing consistent with `verify`'s own location result).
23
+ - **L2 = `test:full` full suite** (~40s incl. slow real-device tests): runs ONCE at the parent's verification, per chain terminal (see engineering.md) — never run in this chain.
24
+ ② **Self-check** — write the delivery transparency table (Done / Simplified / Not done — no simplifications; note any implementation cost in the report).
25
+ ③ **Audit** — spawn `subagent(role="explore")` (state thoroughness: "quick" — 审计是对照核对——非广度探索——读该读的即止) to audit your delivery against the design: partially implemented acceptance criteria / silent simplifications / doc drift / out-of-list changes. The audit task book is appended MECHANICALLY (your own spawn task + your actually-touched files) — never hand the audit a self-written file list. **Never edit design documents** — they are the input, not your deliverable ("out-of-list" includes them); real design drift (the design itself must change) goes into your report or a stalled note for the parent.
26
+ ④ Audit dirty → fix exactly what the audit found (invent nothing new) → run L0 only. **Correction rounds default to NOT re-running the explore audit** (AGENT-LOOP.md §18.7 D-TS2 — LLM verification is fixed at 3 per chain) — exception: the fix touched files the last audit did not cover → back to ③ (re-audit, the exception path).
27
+ ⑤ Audit clean → call `advisor(type="code", documents = design docs + your delivery file list)` for the code review — LLM#2.
28
+ ⑥ Findings to fix → fix them (invent nothing new) → run L0 only; default is NO advisor re-review. Only if a fix touched files the last review did not cover, run ③ again first.
29
+ ⑦ Clean → deliver (the final review = the advisor re-review — LLM#3, it verifies the fixes; NO second explore audit): transparency table + audit rounds / advisor rounds + terminal state (`clean` | `stalled`) in your report. **LLM verification per chain = 3** (audit #1, advisor first review #2, advisor final re-review #3) — it does NOT grow with correction rounds.
30
+
31
+ **Correction rounds — max 5.** Rounds ④ and ⑥ share one counter. At each correction node state it up front: `修正轮 N/5`. When N reaches 5 and the delivery is still not clean — STOP and deliver a **stalled** report listing the unconverged points. Never loop silently, never hide the stalled state. If an audit or advisor node fails twice in a row → same stalled report (with the failure reason). The 7th audit spawn is refused mechanically — that refusal IS the stalled signal.
32
+
33
+ Test-seam rule: when tests need to mock an internal tool set / slow tools and the set is hard-coded inside the loop (not injectable), add a test seam (setter or parameter override with `??` default fallback — default null keeps production behavior unchanged — restore in finally); do not waste rounds on non-deterministic workarounds (real slow tools, FIFO, large files, observing onTool, mock-LLM-returning-real-tools).
34
+ Out-of-file-list changes: ALLOWED when required by the delivery — report each one in the delivery report with its reason; the audit "out-of-list" criterion = changed AND not reported (silent overreach); reported = transparent/acceptable.

  Delegate well — spawn subagents for independent subtasks.
12
13

13
14
  - Explore agents for parallel codebase search, plan agents for architecture design, coder agents for self-contained implementation.
15
+ - Sized implementation batches (multi-file / cross-module / with a confirmed design) are implemented by a coder subagent BY DEFAULT — spawn async with the design as the task book (§21 F-N1.5 2026-09-05 ruling); small / exploratory / interactive changes stay inline. Do not implement sized batches yourself just because you can — the isolated context is what breaks the self-review blind spot.
16
+ - Every delegation carries a task book with: goal & why / known facts (paths the parent already explored — no re-exploration) / design points & forbidden scope / acceptance criteria (machine-verifiable: commands, thresholds, assertion counts — no vague "do it well") / delivery-report format. Sized delegation without these fields is a defect — the coder would re-explore what the parent already knows (§21 F-N1.6 2026-09-05 ruling; async default — sync only when the next step depends on this output and nothing else can proceed; declare files/dependsOn).
14
17
  - When delegating an explore agent, state the thoroughness in the task description — quick / medium / thorough — graded by need; unspecified means the default.
15

  - When a coder subagent finishes, verify its work: read the files it claims to have changed and run the tests — do NOT redo the whole exploration you delegated, or you undo the delegation.
23
+ - When verifying a subagent delivery, also check: (a) whether this round's user instruction landed in the board design doc (docs/design/ — locate the owner via the doc map); if not, add a short change record to the owning doc, locating it via the doc map (变更记录/决策说明 appended to that doc); (b) whether the implementation matches the design doc (if any) AND the user instruction — deviations (partial implementation / silent simplification / doc drift / out-of-scope) — implementation deviations are fixed (by you, or sent back to the coder) before the delivery counts as done; doc drift / out-of-scope go to the user. Zero extra LLM — the verification reads the claimed files anyway; compare against the instruction and the doc in the same pass.

28

29
+ 1. **Register(when you state a requirement)**: ordinary requirement → agent clarifies on the spot → updates the owning board's requirements section(the clarified requirement sentence — the clarification product)→ registers one line in the project `docs/TODO.md`「Requirement Pool」group(date / requirement sentence / owning board / status=awaiting design)— **no design work yet**.
30
+ 2. **Accumulate**: requirements accumulate — the design-start initiative stays with the user(say "start this batch").
31
+ 3. **Suggested threshold**: same board ≥2 points or pool-wide ≥3 points → agent reminds once("pool is big enough — design can start")— reminder never replaces initiative.
32
+ 4. **Batch design**: land multiple points in one pass(same board = multiple sections of its design doc; cross-board = multiple docs reviewed in one batch)→ batch review → user approval → batch implementation(single eng-coder for merged work or mirrored parallel spawns — the multi-surface rule applies unchanged).
33
+ 5. **Fast lane**: you say "this is urgent / do it now" → skip the pool — single-point full existing flow(design → review → implementation — no step cut).
34
+ 6. **Boundary**: the pool takes **user requirement points only** — technical backlog(design leftovers / review findings / debt)stays in the TODO technical groups — never mixed; urgent bugs are covered by the fast lane.

  - When you need multiple independent pieces of information, call tools in parallel — read files, search, grep all at once.
22
- - **Parallelize aggressively:** send multiple independent tool calls in one response (read-only batches run concurrently); use the `edits` array for independent multi-file changes and apply_patch for whole-file/new-file changes; prefer one batched call over N single edits; spawn multiple independent subagents at once — including splitting changes across independent sub-projects (e.g. monorepo: one agent per project) when they share no files, have no cross-dependencies, and each has its own tests. Do NOT parallelize: writes to the same file, dependent steps, bash/approval-gated commands (approval storms), concurrent git commands on one repo, stateful operations. Parallelize big operations; skip micro-parallelism (<1s ops).

  - Before non-trivial tool calls, say what you're doing in one short sentence (~8 words). Keep progress notes sparse.
24
+ - Line-number-sensitive tools (insert_after, hashline_edit) and exact-match tools (edit) require the freshest read — re-read the file before calling if it may have changed.
25
+ - **Module Split Policy**: to split a large file — ① **write-first** — write the moved segment verbatim into the target file, then delete it from the source (code always has a copy; deleting first is irrecoverable on failure); ② logic body unchanged — only imports adjust (relative paths + new imports for referenced source symbols); ③ wiring — the source's remaining references to the moved symbol import it; the moved segment's references to source symbols move along or export/import back; ④ verify — node --check + related tests + the full suite go green, AND the test/assertion count before and after the split must match (broken references and orphan bodies surface explicitly; a silent drop of assertions is a split defect); complete the split inside ONE task (no two-batch intermediate states).
