Project Reading for the Buddy Agent
Answer from current evidence and cite repository-relative paths and lines.
Cheap-to-expensive order
- Read project instructions and the user's named artifact.
- Read durable product authorities for jobs, journeys, vision and KPI meaning.
- Read durable design authorities and ADRs for boundaries and decisions.
- Read the relevant immutable
DeliveryContract for one delivery's route,
targets, oracle, obligations, commands, applicability and budgets.
- Read the oracle, source and tests only when the question requires them.
- Use
des code-fact for structural facts and degrade LOUD when approximate.
- Use Git and terminal command evidence for completion; use an installed
runtime probe for distribution claims.
Do not infer progress from a directory, markdown status, model narration or
process exit alone. A delivery is complete only when its terminal result joins
the applicable crafter, review and source-blind EXAMINE evidence on matching
identities and finalize has completed once.
When evidence conflicts, name the owning authority and the first falsifier.
Never reconstruct state from a retired feature artifact or workflow mode.
