| 1 | <Who> cannot <do what>, so <consequence> | <role, named person> | <n/day> | <$n per case · $n/yr> | [<source>](<link>) |
| 2 | | | | | |

## How cost per case was computed
- Handling time: <n> min, from <source>
- Loaded cost per minute: $<n>, from <source>
- Leakage per failed case: $<n>: <what leaks, and how it was estimated>
- **Cost per case = $<n>**

## What is NOT in here

# AI-fit · <feature>
_Decided: <date> · Decided by: <name> · Status: accepted / superseded_

## The three questions
| # | Question | Answer | Why |
|---|----------|--------|-----|
| 1 | Is there a genuine judgement call? | yes / no | <two competent people could differ about ...> |
| 2 | Is the volume high enough to carry a probabilistic system? | yes / no | <n cases/day> |
| 3 | Is a wrong answer recoverable? | yes / no / partly | <what happens, and how fast it can be undone> |

## Verdict
**<Rule in code | Assisted, person decides | Agentic with gates | Fully agentic>**

## What we rejected, and why
- **Rule in code**: <rejected because ... / chosen because ...>
- **A person**: <cost at this volume>
- **Fully agentic**: <rejected because step <x> is unrecoverable>

## Consequence
- The unrecoverable steps are: <list>. These are gated regardless of how good the model gets.
- Revisit when: <named trigger, e.g. "the regulator's rule changes", not a date>

# Value and autonomy · <feature>
_Decided: <date> · Owner: <name>_

## Value line
| Term | Value | Source |
|------|-------|--------|
| Cases per day | <n> | pain register |
| Minutes saved per case | <n> | <measured how> |
| Cost per minute (loaded) | $<n> | finance |
| **Gross saving / day** | **$<n>** | = cases x minutes x rate |
| Run cost per case (tokens, cached + routed) | $<n> | engineering, <date> |
| Share of cases reviewed | <n>% | cycle 1 estimate |
| Review minutes per reviewed case | <n> | |
| **Net / day** | **$<n>** | |

Cycle-2 expectation: review share falls to <n>%, net becomes $<n>/day. Say this now,
so the cost story has a trajectory rather than a surprise.

## Autonomy, per action
| Action | Cost of ONE mistake | Reversible? | Level | Raise it when |
|--------|--------------------|-------------|-------|---------------|
| <show options> | ~$0 | yes | acts alone | n/a |
| <same-day rebook> | $<n> | mostly | acts, monitored | <evidence> |
| <cross-partner rebook> | $<n> | with effort | acts, veto window | <evidence> |
| <issue refund> | $<n> | **no** | **named approver, every time** | does not rise without <x> |

## The door
Actions marked NOT reversible are one-way doors. They stay gated regardless of measured
accuracy, because the bar that would justify removing the gate is not reachable.

## Review cadence
Levels are reviewed <monthly> against evidence. An incident drops the level of the action
involved by one, automatically.

# Bolt plan · <feature> · <cycle>
_Cadence: one bolt per day, reviewed and integrated same day_

| Day | Bolt | The ONE unknown it retires | Depends on | Slice it serves | Done when |
|-----|------|---------------------------|-----------|-----------------|-----------|
| 1 | Walking skeleton, <read X, show it>, no model | do the pieces connect? | none | all | end to end, in staging |
| 2 | <exact function> | <...> | none | <slice> | unit tests green |
| 3 | | | | | |

## Rules for this plan
- A bolt that cannot be built alone was cut wrong: send it back before starting it.
- Exact code early: it stands alone and never blocks.
- The plug (MCP / integration) lands before any gated write that needs it.
- The proof (harness, golden set) is last, because it needs something to run against.

## Milestones that are not dates
| Milestone | Condition, not date |
|-----------|--------------------|
| Shadow run starts | harness green on all slices at their bar |
| Shadow run ends | <n> days AND <n>% agreement per slice |
| Cut-over to 5% | shadow threshold met; rollback rehearsed |
| Widen | live lower bound holds above bar, per slice |

## What leadership sees
Daily: what merged yesterday. Weekly: the two numbers.

# Gate · <intent | plan | release> · <feature> · <date>

**Decision:** pass / hold / reject
**Decided by:** <name>  (a gate has exactly one name on it)

## Evidence in front of me
| What | Value | Link |
|------|-------|------|
| <for intent: pain register line> | | |
| <for intent: AI-fit verdict> | | |
| <for intent: value line, net/day> | $<n> | |
| <for plan: bolt cut reviewed by architect> | yes/no | |
| <for plan: authority budget, caps in tool signatures> | yes/no | |
| <for release: shadow agreement, per slice> | | |
| <for release: rollback rehearsed on> | <date> | |

## Per-slice check (release gate)
| Slice | Score | Lower bound | Bar | Pass? |
|-------|-------|-------------|-----|-------|
| | | | | |

**Rule:** any slice whose LOWER BOUND is below its bar rejects the change, whatever the
overall number says.

## Conditions attached to a pass
- <e.g. refunds stay gated; widen only on live evidence>

## What would re-open this gate
- A drift alert above <n>% week over week (automatic)
- An incident on any gated action

# Cut-over decision · <feature>

**Net this cycle:** saved <n> person-days, spent $<n> and <n> review hours.
**Trajectory:** review load falls to ~<n>h in cycle <n+1> as <what sharpens>; net becomes <n>.

_Baseline taken <date>, BEFORE the pilot, from <source>._

# Requirements identified by the team and key stakeholders
_<product> · discovery on <date 1> and <date 2> · circulated by <name>, <date>_

Below are **all <n> requirements**, each credited to the person who raised it.
Duplicates are kept deliberately: if two of you said the same thing, both lines are
here. The consolidation follows underneath, with the reasoning for each merge.

## Every line, as it was said
| ID | The requirement, in the words it was raised | Raised by | Meeting |
|----|--------------------------------------------|-----------|---------|
| FR-01 | <Show alternative flights within one screen> | <R. Mehta, frontline> | 1 |
| FR-02 | <Show the passenger their options quickly> | <R. Mehta, frontline> | 1 |
| FR-03 | <Options must appear fast enough to hold a call> | <S. Okafor, contact centre> | 1 |
| ... | | | |
| FR-<n> | <Every refund must be attributable to a person> | <A. Lindqvist, compliance> | 2 |

## Consolidated to <m> functional requirements
| ID | Consolidated requirement | From | Why these merged |
|----|-------------------------|------|------------------|
| FR-A | <Present ranked alternatives within 30 seconds at P95> | FR-01, FR-02, FR-03 | <one behaviour, three phrasings; the measure is FR-03's> |
| FR-B | | | |

**Coverage:** every one of the <n> lines above appears in exactly one consolidated
requirement. Nothing was dropped.

## Conflicts: for the workshop, not for an editor
| ID | Requirement A | Requirement B | Who holds each | Workshop item |
|----|--------------|---------------|----------------|---------------|
| X-1 | <FR-07, faster options> | <FR-22, lower cost per case> | <name> / <name> | <date> |

## The requirements that describe a model's behaviour
These cannot be satisfied by a function. Their acceptance will be a measured share
on real cases, not a pass or a fail, and they are flagged now so that nobody writes
their acceptance criteria in the wrong shape.
- FR-<n>: <why two competent people could differ>

## Raised, but not a requirement
| Raised as | What it actually is | Where it went |
|-----------|--------------------|---------------|
| <No headcount this year> | a motivation | the pain register |
| <We should use <framework>> | a solution | the build / buy / borrow matrix |

## Who was not in either room
| Who | The constraint they hold | Meeting booked |

## What happens next
Constraints sorted by type on <date>. Candidate NFRs as six-part scenarios on
<date>. The ratification workshop on <date>. Reply if a line is wrong, missing or
credited to the wrong person: that correction is free now and expensive in week five.

# Constraints and candidate NFRs · <product>
_Compiled: <date> · Owner: <name> · Ratification workshop: <date>_

## Constraints, by type
| # | Constraint | Type | The design it rules out | Source |
|---|-----------|------|------------------------|--------|
| C-1 | <Every refund over $400 needs a named approver> | regulatory | <any autonomous refund path; becomes a typed cap plus an approver token> | <A. Lindqvist, compliance, <date>> |
| C-2 | <The reservation system exposes SOAP only> | technical | <direct integration; forces an adapter or one server in front> | <platform team> |
| C-3 | <Passenger data must stay in region> | regulatory | <any cross-region model endpoint> | <legal, <date>> |
| C-4 | <No new licence spend above $<n> a year> | commercial | <the managed tier of options B and C> | <finance> |

**Test applied to every line:** it names a design it rules out. If that column would
be empty, it is not a constraint.

## Struck from the list
| Raised as a constraint | What it is | Where it went |

# Exact / best-guess / consequential map · <feature>
_Drawn: <date> · Owner: <name> · Read by: engineering and QA_

## The three kinds
| Kind | What it is | Built as | Proven by |
|------|-----------|----------|-----------|
| Exact | Must be right every single time | A function | A unit test, green or red |
| Best-guess | Right a share of the time | A model call | A measured share on real cases |
| Consequential | Changes something real | A tool **plus** a gate | A required confirmation |

## The map
| # | Step | Kind | Owner | Proof | The assertion or bar |
|---|------|------|-------|-------|---------------------|
| 1 | <read the booking> | exact | code | unit test | <returns the record or raises> |
| 2 | <find candidate flights> | best-guess | model | measured share | <80% on codeshare, n = 500> |
| 3 | <compute the fare difference> | **exact** | code | unit test | <100 - 20 = 80, always> |
| 4 | <check visa and codeshare eligibility> | exact | code | unit test | <rule table, every branch> |
| 5 | <draft the passenger message> | best-guess | model | independent judge | <tone, policy, no invented claims> |
| 6 | <rebook the seat> | consequential | tool + gate | required confirmation | <no token, raises> |
| 7 | <issue a refund> | consequential | tool + gate | required confirmation | <amount <= <cap>, named approver> |

## Data flow
<booking> -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 (numbers only) -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7

**The rule that never breaks:** the best-guess machine never does the exact math. The
model may call step 3 and read its result. It never computes the value it then acts on.

## Arithmetic found inside prompts
| File | Line | The phrase | What it computes | The function it becomes |
|------|------|-----------|------------------|------------------------|
| <prompts/rebook.md> | <42> | <"work out what they owe"> | <fare difference> | <fare_difference(pnr, new_leg)> |
| | | | | |

Acted-on values are the urgent list. Displayed-only values can wait a cycle.

## Steps that resisted classification
| Step | The two things it was doing | How it split |
|------|----------------------------|--------------|
| <"price and recommend"> | <a judgement and a calculation> | <rank_alternatives() + fare_difference()> |

## Handover
- Engineering builds from the **Kind** column.
- QA builds the test plan from the **Proof** column.
- Every consequential row also appears in the authority budget, banded R1 to R5.

# Shape decision · <feature>
_Decided: <date> · Owner: <name> · Revisit at: the P3 trace review_

## How many agents
| Question | Answer | Evidence |
|----------|--------|----------|
| Is this AI at all? | <yes: the PM's AI-fit record> | <link> |
| How many agents? | **<n>, with tools** | |
| Does one context genuinely overload? | <no: largest case measured at <n> tokens against a <n> limit> | <measurement, date> |
| Are there parallel sub-tasks a fan-out tool cannot express? | <no: <n> partner searches run inside one tool> | |
| Is the build audited and multi-team? | <no> | |

## The hand-off arithmetic
| Agents | Possible hand-offs, n(n-1)/2 | |
|--------|------------------------------|--|
| 1 | 0 | **chosen** |
| <5> | <10> | <the orchestrator option> |
| <15> | <105> | <the proposal that started this> |

Every hand-off is a place coordination can be wrong, and none of them appears in the
diagram that made the design look reasonable.

## What was proposed, and what it actually is
| Proposed agent | What it really is | Where it goes |
|----------------|-------------------|---------------|
| <the pricer> | exact work | a function (map, step <n>) |
| <the searcher> | parallelism | a fan-out tool, <n> calls in one |
| <the reviewer> | independence | a checker: different model, or fresh adversarial context |
| <the planner> | the agent itself | the single agent |

## The escalation condition
We move to <orchestrator + workers> when, and only when:
- <a single context exceeds <n> tokens on <named case class>>, **or**
- <more than <n> sub-tasks must run in parallel AND a fan-out tool cannot express it>

Baseline measured <date>: <the number today>. Anything outside these two is a swarm
arriving by default.

## Process depth, per change
| Kind of change | P0 | P1 | P2 | P3 | Method weight |
|----------------|----|----|----|----|---------------|
| <one-line fix> | none | light | yes | none | living spec + a single agent |
| <this feature> | yes | yes | yes | yes | living spec + the five gates |
| <audited module> | yes | full | full | full | living spec + the full document trail |
| <regulatory rule change> | none | yes | yes | light | spec diff + validation |

**Rule:** the living spec is the backbone everywhere. The heavy document trail is
layered on only where the work is audited and multi-team. Depth flexes per change.

# Ratification · <product> · <date>
_Workshop: <n> people, <n> candidates, two hours · Chair: <name>_

## Merged utility tree
> priority = value x (4 - complexity), each stakeholder scoring 1 to 3

| NFR | <frontline> | <compliance> | <finance> | <ops> | Gap | Conflict? |
|-----|------------|--------------|-----------|-------|-----|-----------|
| <latency 30s P95> | <6> | <2> | <2> | <4> | <4> | no |
| <cost per case $0.60> | <1> | <2> | <9> | <3> | <8> | **yes. ADR-<n>** |
| <accuracy 80% codeshare> | <9> | <6> | <2> | <6> | <7> | **yes. ADR-<n>** |
| <refunds over $400 approved> | <2> | <9> | <4> | <3> | <7> | **yes. ADR-<n>** |

**Rule:** a gap of 5 or more between any two stakeholders is a conflict, and every
conflict is a decision-record trigger.

**Not a real conflict, though it looks like one:** <auditability against latency:
logging costs milliseconds, the model choice costs seconds>. The trees show this,
which is why you build them instead of debating them.

# Authority budget and gate map · <feature>
_Owner: <name> · <date> · The allowed-alone line comes from the PM's autonomy record_

## Authority, before any token budget
| Tool | Band | What ONE wrong call damages | Where the control lives | The test |
|------|------|----------------------------|------------------------|----------|
| <search_flights> | R1 | nothing; read-only | permission scope: read only | <no write scope granted> |
| <draft_message> | R2 | a reply a person then sends | review before it merges | <a draft can never auto-send> |
| <cancel_hold> | R3 | a held seat | approve first | <no approval, raises> |
| <rebook> | **R4** | a real booking and a fare | confirmation token | <no token, raises> |
| <issue_refund> | **R4** | money | amount at or below <cap>, typed in the signature, + a named approver | <over-cap raises; no-confirm raises> |
| <change_passenger_identity> | **R5** | identity | not delegated; no tool exists | <no such tool in the schema> |

**The ladder is about the action, not the diff.** A one-line change to <cap> is R4.

## Caps moved out of prompts
| Was, in the prompt | Now, in the signature | Tests written |
|--------------------|----------------------|---------------|
| <"never refund more than $400"> | <issue_refund(amount: Money, ...)>, raising above <CAP> | <test_over_cap_raises> |
| <"ask before rebooking"> | <rebook(..., confirmation: ConfirmToken)> | <test_no_confirmation_raises> |

The explanatory sentence **stays** in the prompt. It is policy and it makes the agent
behave well by default. The signature is what makes bad behaviour impossible once the
prompt has been talked past.

## The confirmation token
- Minted by: <the approver's screen>. Never by the model, never by a tool the model calls.
- Bound to: <booking id + amount + approver identity>
- Expires: <n> minutes
- Test: <a forged, reused or expired token raises>

## Ingest: everything the agent reads is untrusted
| Source | Tagged untrusted? | In the weekly injection suite? |
|--------|-------------------|-------------------------------|
| <passenger message> | yes | yes |
| <partner API free-text fields> | <yes> | <yes> |
| <uploaded documents> | <yes> | <yes> |
| <retrieved knowledge chunks> | <yes> | <yes> |

## Open decisions: hard or soft
Four questions, in order. **One "no" makes it hard.**
1. Can it be reversed cheaply once the build has started?
2. Can the build proceed behind a placeholder?
3. Is there a named owner and a date?
4. Does everything downstream survive if the answer changes?

| Decision | Q1 | Q2 | Q3 | Q4 | Verdict | Placeholder | Owner | By |
|----------|----|----|----|----|---------|-------------|-------|----|
| <autonomy level on refunds> | no | none | none | none | **HARD** | none | <name> | <phase> |
| <model tier per slice> | yes | yes | yes | yes | soft | <mid tier behind the gateway> | <name> | <date> |
| <framework> | yes | yes | yes | yes | soft | <an interface layer in front of it> | <name> | <date> |

| task | this feature's spec, bar and file list | <spec.md · bar.md · files.md> | <the bolt's owner> |

**Rules**
- A new product writes ONLY product and task. It inherits the rest.
- A shared change is one commit, and every product picks it up.
- An override declares its reason and its scope. A silent override is a drift.
- Send the slice a task needs, never the whole stack: <40k> tokens becomes <2k>.
- The domain layer is the one teams forget, and it holds most of the reuse.

## 2 · The server for <system>
| Primitive | Controlled by | Entries |
|-----------|---------------|---------|
| resources, read-only data | the application | <booking_record · passenger_history · fare_rules> |
| tools, open reads | the model | <search_flights · check_availability> |
| tools, gated writes | the model, within the contract | <rebook (CONFIRM)> · <issue_refund (CONFIRM, amount at or below the cap)> |
| prompts, templates | the person | <draft_disruption_reply> |

- Transport: <Streamable HTTP in production, stdio for local development>
- Auth: <as the specification's authorization framework requires>
- Trace: every tool call logged (input, decision, output, model version)
- **Rejected:** <one broad manage_booking(action) tool: any path through it could cancel>

M applications times N systems becomes M + N. Build the server once and any compliant
client plugs into it.

## 3 · The chain, and where the checkers go
> <0.9> x <0.9> x <0.9> x <0.9> = **<0.66>**: multiply, never average

| # | Step | Kind | Checker? | Why |
|---|------|------|----------|-----|
| <1> | <read the booking> | best-guess | no | <low stakes, caught downstream> |
| <2> | <choose the flights> | best-guess | **yes** | <costly to get wrong, easy to miss> |
| <3> | <compute the fare> | exact | no | <a unit test, not a checker> |
| <4> | <draft the message> | best-guess | **yes** | <false claims and tone, invisible to the drafter> |
| <5> | <rebook> | consequential | no | <a confirmation, not a checker> |

**Independence**: each checker runs on <a different model> OR <the same model in a
fresh context with an adversarial brief>. Never a self-review, and never inside the
context that produced the output.

**Checker brief, step <n>:** <Find what is wrong with this. Do these options satisfy
every stated constraint? List the violations. Do not rewrite.>

**Re-draft cap:** <2> rounds, then escalate to a person.

_Owner: <name> · <date> · Config reviewed like code: <path>_

## Caching layout
[tools] [system] [shared context] [domain context <- cache marker] [task] [the request]
  stable ---------------------------------------------------------> | volatile

- The cache matches an EXACT prefix, in the order tools -> system -> messages, up to
  the marked block. The changing request goes last, always.
- Documented multipliers, read September 2026: five-minute write 1.25x input ·
  one-hour write 2x · read 0.1x · <Fable and Mythos 5.1 read at 0.025x>
- cost with cache = ( w + 0.1 x (N - 1) ) x T x p, against N x T x p without.
  **Break-even is the second use.** At N = 1 it costs more than not caching.
- Window: <five minutes> because <calls arrive seconds apart and each hit refreshes it
  free>. Choose one hour when <a call every twelve minutes means the short cache has
  always expired and every call pays a write>.
- Minimum cacheable block: <about 1,024 tokens, model dependent>

| What breaks the cache | Present here? |
|-----------------------|---------------|
| The request placed first, for emphasis | <no> |
| A timestamp, request id or session id inside the cached block | <no> |
| A model switch mid-task (the cache is model-scoped) | <forbidden in the team rules> |
| Fewer than the minimum cacheable tokens | <no> |

## Routing and the breaker
| Complexity score | Tier | Example |
|------------------|------|---------|
| below <0.3> | <cheap> | <is my flight delayed?> |
| <0.3> to <0.7> | <mid> | <am I owed a hotel under the regulation?> |
| above <0.7> | <frontier> | <missed connection, lost bag, wedding tomorrow> |

- MAX_LOOPS = <5> on every loop, then a hard stop and a hand-off to a person.
- A per-transaction token cap, next to the breaker.
- Alert on cost per case at **3x** the ratified figure, from the daily per-call log.

## The trace row
ts · input (passport ****1234, card ****9902) · tools called · decision ·
model version · approver · cost · cache tokens read

- **Redact, do not omit.** Masking keeps the decision replayable and the identifier out
  of the store. Omitting the field breaks the audit instead.
- Retention: <90 days hot, then aggregate>. Traces are production data; guard them like
  production.
- Mark cache hits and EXCLUDE them from the latency alert, or a fast response is
  reported as a suspected failure and someone proposes switching the cache off.
- Test: <a passport number never reaches a row>.

## Incident to design change · <date>
**Reconstruct** <with the cap enforced: impossible. With the approver enforced:
impossible. Therefore both were absent. That is the state the system was in.>
**Finding** the enforced control that was missing: <name it>
**Not the finding** <the input, the person who typed it, or any control that would only
have detected it afterwards>
**Change** <the typed parameter, the gate or the permission, and the file it lives in>
**Record** <ADR-<n>> · autonomy on <action> drops one level, raised again only on evidence
**Verify** <QA re-runs the attack; it must now be stopped twice over>

# CLAUDE.md · <repo name>
Project memory. Committed. Read at the start of every session. The same content is
mirrored to .github/copilot-instructions.md (inline suggestions) and AGENTS.md.

## Stack
- <language + version> · <framework> · <package manager>
- Tests <pytest> · Lint <ruff> · Types <mypy --strict on src/tools/**>
- Infra <CDK in infra/> · Deploy <how, and who is allowed to>

## Context layers. READ THESE BY PATH. Do not paste them into a prompt.
- /context/shared/standards.md        org standards, security, tone
- /context/domain/<booking-model>.md  the domain vocabulary
- /context/product/architecture.md    this product, plus ADR-001..ADR-<n>
If a rule here disagrees with a layer, the layer wins and this file is out of date.

## Conventions
- Exact work is a function with a unit test. Never compute money in a prompt.
- Every tool that writes takes a confirmation token. Reads do not.
- One model per task: the cache is model-scoped and a switch discards it.
- A new dependency is an issue first, never an addition made in passing.

## Commands: every one of these has been run. Use them; do not improvise.
| To do this | Run |
|------------|-----|
| Unit tests | `<make test>` |
| The golden slice for one bolt | `<make golden SLICE=codeshare>` |
| Lint and types | `<make check>` |
| Local stack up | `<make up>` |

## Never touch
- `<config/caps.yaml>`: the authority budget. Changing a cap is an R4 change.
- `<src/tools/refund/**>`: two named reviewers, every time.
- `<migrations/>`: never edit an applied migration. Add a new one.
- `<src/trace/redact.py>`: security reviews every change here.

## Ask before
- Adding a tool to the agent's tool list
- Editing anything under `<src/prompts/>`: it re-runs the injection suite
- Touching a golden-set file. Those belong to QA, not to this repo's authors.

_Last rule added <date>: <the rule that bit us last week, in one line>_

# Bolt <7> · <rebook() gated write>
_Author <name> · Date <date> · Architect's cut: bolt <7> of <10>_

## 1 · Context. BY REFERENCE. These are not pasted into any prompt.
- /context/shared/standards.md
- /context/domain/<booking-model>.md
- /context/product/architecture.md
- ADR-<004> <one-line title> · ADR-<007> <one-line title>

## 2 · Spec (EARS)
WHEN   <the passenger accepts a proposed alternative>
AND    <the fare difference has been computed by fare_difference()>
THE SYSTEM SHALL <rebook the segment> WITHIN <10> seconds.

BOUNDARY  <Never rebook without a computed fare difference.>
BOUNDARY  <Never rebook a segment that has already departed.>

## 3 · Tools, with the band taken from the authority budget
| Signature | Band | Reads or writes |
|-----------|------|-----------------|
| `rebook(pnr, segment, fare_delta, confirmation) -> Booking` | R3 | writes |
| `get_booking(pnr) -> Booking` | R1 | reads |

## 4 · Tests
- Golden slice `<rebook>`, <40> cases, bar <85>%
- Unit `<rebook_requires_fare_delta>` · `<rebook_is_idempotent>` ·
       `<rebook_rejects_a_departed_segment>`
- Injection: <every attack string, aimed at rebook, from the passenger message
  and from the partner API notes field>

## 5 · Done when
- [ ] `<make golden SLICE=rebook>` at or above the bar, lower bound reported
- [ ] `<make test>` green, including the three unit tests named above
- [ ] merged to main and integrated <the same day>
- [ ] one redacted trace row per rebook, carrying the model version

## 6 · Cost
- ~<1,900> tokens per call, <mid> tier, prefix <cached, 5m>
- Expected cost per case $<0.04>. Alert at 3x.

## Can this bolt be built alone?

# Bolt build log · <feature>

## The order, and the rule that produced it
| Day | Bolt | Depends on | The ONE unknown | Band |
|-----|------|-----------|-----------------|------|
| 1 | <walking skeleton, read a booking, show it. NO MODEL> | none | <do the pieces connect?> | R1 |
| 2 | <fare_difference(), exact, unit-tested> | 1 | <the rounding rule> | R1 |
| 3 | <visa and codeshare eligibility, exact> | 1 | <where the partner rules live> | R1 |
| 4 | <rank_alternatives(), best-guess, measured> | 2 | <can it beat the desk?> | R2 |
| 5 | <independent checker after ranking> | 4 | <which model judges> | R2 |
| 6 | <MCP server, reads open> | 1 | <auth to the booking system> | R2 |
| 7 | <rebook() gated write> | 6 | <idempotency> | R3 |
| 8 | <issue_refund(max 400) + confirmation token> | 7 | <who mints the token> | R4 |
| 9 | <shadow path behind a flag> | 5, 8 | <flag plumbing> | R2 |
| 10 | <golden set and harness in CI> | 9 | <slice tagging> | R1 |

Rules this order obeys, in priority order: skeleton first · pure exact code early ·
checkers after the steps they check · the plug before any gated write that needs it ·
the proof last.

## Daily row

## The shadow path
- Flag `<skyways.rebooking.shadow>`: default off, off in production until <date>
- The agent decides and logs. It never acts.
- Test `<test_shadow_never_writes>` fails the build if any write tool is reachable
  while the flag is in shadow mode. This is a test, not an intention.
- Cut-over <5>% of traffic on <date>, <named slice> only
- **Rollback IS the flag.** Rehearsed <date> by <name>. Time to revert <90> seconds.

## What each step owes
| # | Step | Kind | The proof it owes | Fails how |
|---|------|------|-------------------|-----------|
| 1 | <fare difference> | exact | a unit test, green or red | loudly, in CI |
| 2 | <choose the alternative> | best-guess | measured share on <slice>, vs its bar | **fluently**: confident and wrong |
| 3 | <issue the refund> | consequential | over-cap raises AND no-confirm raises | silently, until money moves |
| 4 | | | | |

A step you want to give two tags is two steps. Send it back to the map.

## The bar, per slice
**N = damage ÷ saving**  ·  **bar = N ÷ (N + 1)**

| Slice | Saving per right case | Damage per wrong case | N | Bar | Held? |
|-------|----------------------|----------------------|---|-----|-------|
| <same-day> | $4 | $4 | 1 | 50% | no |
| <codeshare> | $9 | $36 | 4 | 80% | no |
| <refund, unheld> | $12 | $600 | 50 | **98%** | no |
| <refund, named approver> | $12 | $30 | 2.5 | **71%** | yes |

**The hold is the lever.** It lowers the damage, so it lowers the bar. Shipping at 71%
with a person confirming the charge beats waiting for a 98% you will never reach.

## Consequential steps: the two tests
| Tool | Cap, in the signature | Who mints the token | over-cap raises | no-confirm raises |

A boundary that is not one of these two tests is a sentence in a prompt, and a model can
be talked past a sentence.

      <paste the three or four policy lines that actually apply to this message type.
       Do not paste the whole handbook - the judge reads what you give it.>
    fail_if:
      - commits to a refund without a named approver
      - offers compensation above <$n>
      - states a partner will reaccommodate when no interline agreement exists

  - id: false_claim
    question: Is every factual statement supported by the booking data supplied?
    fail_if:
      - names a flight, time or seat not present in the data
      - states a partner policy as fact when the data says "usually"
      - invents a reference number
    boundary: >

# Shadow run · <feature>
_Window: <start> to <end> (<n> days, fixed on <date> before the run) · Owner: <name>_

## Agreement, per slice
| Slice | Decisions compared | Agreed | Agreement | Threshold | Met? |
|-------|--------------------|--------|-----------|-----------|------|
| <same-day> | <n> | <n> | <n>% | 95% | |
| <codeshare> | <n> | <n> | <n>% | 95% | |
| <refund> | <n> | <n> | <n>% | n/a, excluded, stays gated | none |

**Money actions are excluded from automatic agreement and remain gated regardless of
what this table says.** Every other threshold here is tunable; that one is not.

Any slice under <n> compared decisions is **unproven**, not failed. Say which.

## Shadow never writes
| Assertion | Where it runs | Last green |
|-----------|---------------|-----------|
| no write call from the shadow path | <the nightly job> | <date> |
| shadow decisions land in <the log>, not <the ledger> | <the nightly job> | <date> |

## Disagreements: themes, not cases
| Theme | Count | Agent right / desk right / ambiguous | What it changes |
|-------|-------|--------------------------------------|-----------------|
| <theme> | <n> | <which> | <golden cases / rubric line / spec defect / nothing> |

Read in full by <name> for the first <n> days. Ambiguous themes are rubric work.

## Days of evidence, per share
days = cases needed ÷ (traffic share × cases per day) · cases per day = <n>

| Slice | Cases needed | At 5% | At 25% | At 100% |
|-------|--------------|-------|--------|---------|
| <codeshare> | <n> | <n> days | <n> days | <n> days |

Any slice needing more than <30> days at 5% needs a bigger starting share or a hold,
and that is a decision to take now rather than in week five.

## Widening: conditions, never dates
| Step | Condition |
|------|-----------|
| to 5% | threshold met on <slices>; rollback rehearsed on <date> by <name> |
| to 25% | live lower bound ≥ bar on <slice> for <n> consecutive days |
| to 100% | as above, plus zero <class> incidents and the injection suite green |

## Verdict
<open the expansion gate for <slices> | extend the window by <n> days | do not proceed, because ...>

# Drift · <feature> · week <n>
_Baseline frozen <date> from <source> · Owner: <name>_

| Output mix watched | Baseline | Last week | This week | w/w step | vs baseline |
|--------------------|----------|-----------|-----------|----------|-------------|
| <% refund vs credit> | <n>% | <n>% | <n>% | <n>pp | <n>pp |
| <% propose vs escalate> | <n>% | <n>% | <n>% | <n>pp | <n>pp |

**Two thresholds, because one is not enough.**
- Step: alert at **5pp** week over week. Catches a jump.
- Level: alert at **over 6pp** against the frozen baseline. Catches the slow slide that a
  week-over-week rule never fires on: under 2pp a week moves 13pp in seven weeks.

A drift alert **re-opens the release gate automatically**. Last triggered: <date / never>.
Baseline re-frozen only by <name>, and never to make an alert go away.

---
# Incident · <id> · <date>

**1 · The question**
Which **enforced** control would have made this impossible?
(Not: who wrote the prompt. That question costs an hour and changes nothing.)

**2 · Layers claimed, honestly classified**
| Layer | Claimed | Reality: enforced / a request / absent | Would it have stopped it? |
|-------|---------|----------------------------------------|---------------------------|
| <input marked as data> | yes | <absent> | no |
| <the prompt's policy> | yes | **a request** | no |
| <a $400 cap> | yes | <a request: in the prompt only> | **yes** |
| <a named approver> | yes | <a request: in the prompt only> | **yes** |
| <an alert on the trace> | yes | <absent> | no, it reports afterwards |

Two layers that fail together are one layer. A rule that lives only in a prompt is a
request, and a model can be talked past a request.

**3 · The fix**
| Proposal | Closes the path, or lowers the probability? |
|----------|--------------------------------------------|
| <reword the prompt> | lowers the probability: the next attempt is worded differently |
| <add an alert> | neither: that is detection, not prevention |
| **<cap and confirmation token in the tool signature>** | **closes the path** |

**4 · Autonomy**
| Action | Level now | Level after | Condition to restore |
|--------|-----------|-------------|----------------------|
| <issue_refund> | <2> | <1> | <a 14-day shadow run at or above threshold> |

**5 · Feed forward**: four artefacts leave the room
- **Golden cases:** <6> new, in <slice>, each with its expected refusal and reason code
- **Injection payloads:** the string, tried from every entry point
- **Amended decision record:** <ADR-nnn> now defines *enforced* as **in the tool signature**
- **P0 brief:** pain · evidence · the missing enforced control · fix · value
