-DO NOT call \`list_files\` \u2014 it is NOT a workspace tool. Use \`searchDocuments\` if you need to look something up (limit 2-3 searches, then act on the results). Your deliverable is the synthesis document; emit it via \`createDocument\`, not via prose.`,
-        // v0.7.2: implementation tools — the synthesizer writes/edits files and runs commands.
+## Methodology
+1. Reconcile specialists + Minosse into one plan.
+2. Resolve conflicts explicitly.
+3. Deliver the product on disk \u2014 prose without successful write_file/edit_file is a failed implementation run.
+4. Verify with project scripts/tests/build when available.
+
+## Implementation output
+- Prefer **native tool_call** for write_file / edit_file / bash (legacy ---TOOLS--- only if native unavailable).
+- Lead with a one-line summary, then what you did.
+- Apply Minosse's highest-value improvements.
+- End with \`## Verification status\` table: \`Check | Tier | Status | Evidence\` (tier: claimed < grep < tool < build). Never claim verification without Evidence.`,
+        designPhaseAddendum: `## Design-phase: synthesis document (mandatory)
+
+Emit \`createDocument({ title: "synthesis", content: "\u2026" })\` with executive summary, stack/decisions, phases, top risks, green-light checklist.
+Do not use list_files as a workspace deliverable; use searchDocuments sparingly if needed.`,
+        implementationAddendum: `## Implementation focus
+
+You are the sole implementer this run. Advisors already analyzed \u2014 implement and verify. Prefer minimal diffs that match project style.`,
