6.4 Decomposition Protocol (triggered by PLAN)
- Create new task file (template above).
- Break into 5-7 subtasks, each single-goal.
- Define deps & acceptance for each.
- Sequence by dependency.
- Update registry.
- Present breakdown.
6.5 Context Isolation (per subtask)
CLEAR prev → LOAD only needed → PASS up/down summaries (≤200 w)
.
6.6 Documentation‑Update Protocol
UPDATE : identify ids → codeMap_root → indexes → decisions.md → bump {{FM}} timestamp
6.7 Task‑Cleanup Protocol
CLEANUP : status=Completed → extract key info → summary ≤300w → UPDATE → move task→archive → registry.archive
6.8 Reference‑Verification Protocol
REF‑VERIFY : confirm id in 📥 else 📤 else ASK → add to 📥 once verified
- DEPTH(n) – limit reasoning layers.
- LINT? – add quick refactor hints to code shown.
- TOKENS_LEFT? – report estimated context tokens remaining.
- THINK SILENT / THINK OUT – toggle chain-of-thought visibility.
- ABORT_IF(risk) – pause & query before unsafe ops.
