Loomworks — Phase 56 Step 0 Inspection Brief
Version. 0.1
Date. 2026-05-11
Status. Pre-CR scoping evidence brief. Hands to CC. Mirrors loomworks-phase-55-step-0-inspection-brief-v0_1.md adapted for conversational creation surface voice work.
Author. Claude.ai. Operator: Marvin Percival.
Companion document. loomworks-phase-56-scoping-note-v0_1.md (parent — the brief presupposes its voice-tune shape selection, its three-sub-arc decomposition, and its nine P56-D items, of which two are settled at v0.1: P56-D1 = Circle 2, P56-D2 = persona-based test conversations).
1. What this is
Pre-CR live-codebase verification for Phase 56 — voice work on the conversational engagement creation surface that Phase 55 shipped. The scoping note records the build shape and nine construction decisions, with two settled at v0.1 and seven on recommendations awaiting Step 0 evidence. Several decisions rest on assumptions about the Phase 55 prompt template component surface, the conversational flow handler's elicitation-question source, the Operator Layer route chrome, the prompt template loader's extension surface, and the calibration-mechanism mechanics (model, fixture format, attachment points). This brief enumerates the verifications, gives CC paste-ready commands to run on DUNIN7-M4, and defines what CC produces.
CC verifies, evidence-cites, reports verdicts. CC does not propose remediation, does not edit the scoping note, does not draft the CR, does not start build.
The brief assumes the two settled P56-D items hold:
- P56-D1 = Circle 2. Phase 55 scaffolding prompts + substantive elicitation prompts. Sub-arc 3 (OL strings) stays conditional on V3 evidence.
- P56-D2 = persona-based test conversations. 2–3 personas minimum; transcripts as test fixtures.
The remaining P56-D items (P56-D3 through P56-D9) run on the scoping note v0.1 recommendations unless Step 0 evidence reshapes them. The brief flags which verification touches which P56-D.
Lens-bounded discipline note. Verification V1 is the cascade pre-emption — explicit enumeration of every voice template, prompt component, and elicitation surface before any revisions are proposed. Per manifest v0.40 §2's six-instance sharpened evidence on the lens-bounded scoping evidence cascade (now extending to build-time enumeration aperture), the discipline is "widen enumeration aperture at Step 0 rather than carry the cascade as accepted debt." V1 is the load-bearing verification here; V2 (methodology-vocabulary scan) layers on V1's enumeration.
2. Reading order before running
CC reads in this order before starting:
loomworks-phase-56-scoping-note-v0_1.md (parent document; in project knowledge). Especially §What Phase 56 delivers; §Sub-arc decomposition; §Open construction decisions (the nine P56-D items); §Build sequencing intent.
phase-55-cr-engagement-creation-assistance-v0_1.md (engine repo docs/phase-crs/). For the conversational creation surface CR-time design intent — particularly §5 (substrate surfaces shipped), §7 (prompt template components), §17 (acceptance gates).
phase-55-implementation-notes-v0_2.md (engine repo docs/phase-impl-notes/). For the as-built voice template surface — specifically the three Phase 55 prompt template components and how they attach.
phase-50-cr-companion-as-authority-and-public-form-v0_1.md (engine repo docs/phase-crs/) §7.2. For the AI-invisibility carve-out comment shape — a precedent for in-template plain-terms-discipline annotation.
phase-49-cr-companion-intelligence-v0_1.md (engine repo docs/phase-crs/). For the bimodal dispatch precedent (Sonnet vs Haiku) — V8 cross-references this.
loomworks-marketing-creation-flow-content-v0_3.md (in project knowledge). For the Field 4 constraint discipline that anchors the voice principles document.
- This brief.
3. Substrate baseline
CC confirms baseline before any verification:
- Engine repo at
/Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine. Tag phase-55-engagement-creation-assistance at commit 58a7703 (annotated tag object 1d00b7b). Test count 2,236 passed, 26 skipped. Alembic head 0064. Working tree clean on main. Zero phase-* build branches (build-close hygiene post-Phase-55 one-time backfill; V0 cross-checks).
- Operator Layer repo at
/Users/dunin7/loomworks. Tag phase-55-engagement-creation-assistance at commit ef7be32 (annotated tag object 99a50ce). Vitest count 149 across 30 test files. Twelve prerendered routes including /operator/create-engagement. eslint/tsc/build clean.
Any drift from baseline → CC reports actual numbers and continues with verifications. Baseline drift is not a halt condition; baseline-vs-scoping-assumption drift is the cascade concern, captured per verification.
V0 — Build-close hygiene check (cross-cuts baseline)
Ask. Manifest v0.40 records the Phase 55 close one-time backfill that swept 16 stale phase- build branches from the engine repo. Going-forward close-protocol step 3 (delete the build branch at close) was named in v0.40 §4 as a watch-this for verification at Phase 56 close. V0 establishes the Phase 56 baseline: zero phase- branches in the engine repo at Step 0.
What to check.
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine && git branch -a | grep -E 'phase-[0-9]+' || echo "ZERO phase-* branches present"
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks && git branch -a | grep -E 'phase-[0-9]+' || echo "ZERO phase-* branches present"
Verdict criteria.
- HOLDS. Zero
phase-* branches in both repos. Baseline clean; Phase 56 close protocol step 3 will be a no-op-extension.
- DRIFT. One or more
phase-* branches present. Reports which; not a halt — Phase 56 close absorbs the cleanup.
4. The verifications
Eight verifications. V1 + V2 are load-bearing as a pair (enumeration aperture plus methodology-vocabulary scan); V3 through V8 are decomposition-verifying.
V1 — Voice template and prompt component enumeration aperture
Framing. Phase 56 voice-tunes the conversational creation surface. Phase 55 added three prompt template components for the scaffolding-level concerns (creation-intent, terminal-turn signal, commit-intent recognition); five voice templates predate Phase 55 (chat surface, grant proposals, grant emails, plus others). The scoping note assumes "five pre-Phase-55 voice templates plus three Phase 55 prompt template components" but does not enumerate the five. V1 is the cascade pre-emption: explicit enumeration of every voice template and prompt template component in the engine repo before any voice revisions are proposed.
What to check.
- Enumerate every
.md file under prompt-template directories. Per current-status-manifest-v0_40.md §1 the Phase 55 scaffolding components live alongside existing voice templates; the layout is convention-driven.
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine
find . -type d -name "prompts" -o -name "voice" -o -name "templates" 2>/dev/null | grep -v __pycache__ | grep -v node_modules
find . -type f -name "*.md" -path "*/prompt*" 2>/dev/null | grep -v __pycache__
find . -type f -name "*.md" -path "*/voice*" 2>/dev/null | grep -v __pycache__
find . -type f -name "*.md" -path "*/templates*" 2>/dev/null | grep -v __pycache__
- For each
.md file located, capture full file path, line count, and one-sentence summary of the file's purpose (read the first non-comment line and the file's frontmatter or top comment).
- Identify which files are voice templates (Operator-facing voice) vs which are dispatcher/system prompts (LLM-facing instruction). The distinction matters: voice templates are voice-tuned in Phase 56 if they touch the creation flow; dispatcher prompts may be voice-tuned but per different discipline.
Evidence expected.
- Total count of voice template files plus prompt component files.
- Each file's path, purpose, and classification (voice template / dispatcher prompt / scaffolding component / substantive elicitation prompt).
- Specifically: confirm the three Phase 55 prompt template components exist and capture their exact filenames (manifest v0.40 §4 speculates
creation_intent.md, terminal_turn_signal.md, commit_intent.md "or whatever names settled at Step 2" — V1 settles the actual names).
- Specifically: confirm whether substantive elicitation prompts exist as separate files or are embedded in the conversational flow handler's logic. If embedded, capture file path + line number of where the elicitation questions are constructed.
Verdict criteria.
- HOLDS. Voice template surface is approximately scoping note's "five + three" frame. Sub-arc 1 scope holds.
- HOLDS-WITH-DIVERGENCE. Surface is enumeration-shifted (e.g. four voice templates plus three prompt components plus elicitation logic in handler code, not a separate file). v0.2 absorbs the actual shape; sub-arc 1 component count adjusts.
- WIDER. Surface is materially wider — 8+ voice templates, or substantive elicitation prompts already exist as separate files Phase 56 didn't enumerate. Sub-arc 1 scope expands; possibly settles P56-D6 (per-field component granularity) by revealing existing structure.
- NARROWER. Substantive elicitation logic is purely procedural (constructed in handler code from no template file). Sub-arc 1 needs a new prompt template loader / dispatcher pattern as part of the voice work. P56-D6 / P56-D7 expand.
Touches. P56-D6 (per-field vs composed prompt component granularity); P56-D5 (voice principles document location relative to existing voice template directory).
V2 — Methodology-vocabulary occurrence scan
Framing. The voice gap is methodology vocabulary appearing on product surfaces. V2 scans all voice templates and prompt components enumerated by V1 for methodology vocabulary occurrences — terms that an Operator without methodology fluency would not share. The scan is the diagnostic Phase 56 work proceeds from.
What to check.
- For each file enumerated by V1, search for occurrences of the following terms (case-insensitive, whole-word):
- "voice" (as a noun-question to the Operator, distinct from "voice" in template metadata)
- "constraints" (as a list-frame to the Operator)
- "success conditions"
- "what is the work" / "who consumes" / "consumes the work"
- "engagement" (Operator-facing use; ignore template-internal use)
- "Memory" / "Manifestation" / "Shaping" / "Rendering" (the four-room vocabulary on product surfaces)
- "assertion" / "ShapeEvent" / "RenderEvent" / "Companion" (the last is Operator-facing OK; the others are substrate-internal)
- "specialist" / "dispatcher" / "classifier"
- "intent" / "intent classification"
- "skill" (in the substrate sense; ambiguous because "skill" is also colloquial)
- "FORAY" / "OVA" / "Loom" (the three protocols)
- "induct" / "induction" / "seed" (the substrate vocabulary for engagement creation)
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine
# For each file path from V1's enumeration:
grep -Hn -iE "\b(voice|constraints|success conditions|engagement|memory|manifestation|shaping|rendering|assertion|shapeevent|renderevent|specialist|dispatcher|classifier|intent|skill|foray|ova|loom|induct|induction|seed)\b" <file>
- For each occurrence, capture: file:line, surrounding context (the line plus 1 before and 1 after), and a classification:
- CARRIED-INTERNAL. Use is template-internal (e.g. a comment, or part of a dispatcher-targeted instruction). Not a voice-gap signal.
- SURFACED-TO-OPERATOR. Use appears in text the Operator will see. Voice-gap signal.
- AMBIGUOUS. Use's classification depends on dispatcher behavior or downstream rendering. Reports the ambiguity.
Evidence expected.
- Count of methodology-vocabulary occurrences per file.
- For each SURFACED-TO-OPERATOR occurrence, the full context line (CC quotes verbatim).
- Summary count: total SURFACED-TO-OPERATOR occurrences across all files; total per-file ranking.
Verdict criteria.
- HOLDS. SURFACED-TO-OPERATOR occurrences cluster in the creation flow's elicitation surface (the gap scoping note v0.1 identified). Phase 56 scope as v0.1 frames it is sufficient.
- WIDER. SURFACED-TO-OPERATOR occurrences appear in voice templates outside the creation flow (e.g. grant proposal voice templates also use "Memory" or "constraints" Operator-facing). Phase 56 scope per v0.1 is narrower than the actual gap surface; v0.2 either absorbs the wider scope or explicitly defers the non-creation-flow surfaces.
- NARROWER. SURFACED-TO-OPERATOR occurrences are minimal or absent from voice templates; the gap lives almost entirely in elicitation logic constructed in handler code. Sub-arc 1c (voice principles document) becomes more load-bearing because it's establishing the discipline rather than implementing it across existing templates.
Touches. P56-D1 (Circle 2 sufficiency); the v0.1 → v0.2 reshape if WIDER fires.
V3 — Operator Layer string methodology-vocabulary scan
Framing. Cluster 1's Circle 3 question. Scoping note v0.1 leaves sub-arc 3 (OL strings) conditional on V3. The question: do OL strings on the /operator/create-engagement route carry methodology vocabulary visible to the Operator?
What to check.
- Locate the OL route file for
/operator/create-engagement. Likely under src/routes/operator/ or comparable.
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks
find . -type f \( -name "*.tsx" -o -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.astro" \) -path "*create-engagement*"
find . -type f \( -name "*.tsx" -o -name "*.ts" \) | xargs grep -l "create-engagement" 2>/dev/null | head -20
- For each file located, identify Operator-visible strings (JSX text nodes, button labels, banner text, error messages, alt text, aria-labels).
- Scan those strings for methodology vocabulary per V2's term list.
- Capture mode banner text verbatim. Capture terminal-turn affordance language verbatim. Capture route label / page title verbatim. Capture any chrome strings visible to the Operator during the creation flow.
Evidence expected.
- Mode banner text verbatim.
- Terminal-turn affordance options verbatim (per Phase 55 CR §5 the affordance offers "Discovery record or brief" — V3 captures the exact phrasing).
- Route label / breadcrumb / page title verbatim.
- Count of methodology-vocabulary occurrences in OL strings.
Verdict criteria.
- NO GAP. Zero methodology-vocabulary occurrences in OL strings. Sub-arc 3 stays marker-only; OL gets a marker tag at close, not a phase-named tag. P56-D1 holds at Circle 2.
- MINOR GAP. One or two strings carry methodology vocabulary (e.g. "Discovery record" as an affordance option). Sub-arc 3 enters active scope with minimal surface (1–3 string revisions); P56-D1 extends to Circle 3.
- SUBSTANTIAL GAP. Five or more Operator-visible strings carry methodology vocabulary. Sub-arc 3 enters active scope with substantial surface; v0.2 reshapes the test surface estimate upward and possibly settles P56-D6 (because per-field discipline cascades to the OL chrome).
Touches. P56-D1 (Circle 2 vs Circle 3); sub-arc 3 active vs marker-only.
V4 — Persona variety evidence
Framing. P56-D3 (persona authorship and origin) recommends three default personas: small-business operational engagement; creative-writing serial engagement; field-research observation engagement. V4 checks the project's existing engagement-construction artifacts for evidence of persona variety the personas should reflect.
What to check.
- Enumerate existing seed candidates and Discovery records in project knowledge and engine repo
docs/. Per manifest v0.40 §1 the candidate Loomworks seed is v0.9; Phase 53 Step 0 evidence noted ~12 Discovery records with 6+ organizing schemes.
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine
find docs -name "*discovery*" -o -name "*candidate*seed*" -o -name "*-seed-*" 2>/dev/null | head -30
- For each candidate seed or Discovery record located, capture: filename, the engagement's domain (one phrase), and the engagement's audience (one phrase from Field 2 or equivalent).
- Group the artifacts by domain category (operational / creative / research / commerce / education / other). Note dominant categories and absent categories.
Evidence expected.
- List of candidate seeds and Discovery records with domain + audience.
- Category distribution.
- Specifically: confirm whether the three v0.1 default personas (small-business operational / creative writing serial / field research observation) map to category coverage already present in the artifacts, or whether they over-represent absent categories.
Verdict criteria.
- HOLDS. Three default personas cover the dominant categories in existing artifacts. P56-D3 settles at three personas.
- NARROWER. Existing artifacts cluster in 1–2 dominant categories; three personas over-represent variety the calibration doesn't need yet. P56-D3 settles at 2 personas — focused calibration.
- WIDER. Existing artifacts span 5+ categories with the v0.1 defaults missing significant ground (e.g. commerce category absent from the defaults but heavily present in existing artifacts). P56-D3 settles at 4–5 personas to cover the absent categories.
Touches. P56-D3 (persona authorship and origin).
V5 — Phase 42 conversation-turn fixture shape
Framing. P56-D4 recommends test fixture format as transcript files under tests/fixtures/voice-calibration/. V5 verifies whether existing test fixtures touching Phase 42's conversation-turn relational table already establish a fixture format convention, and whether the recommended format aligns or diverges.
What to check.
- Locate Phase 42 conversation-turn test fixtures.
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine
find tests -name "fixture*" -type d 2>/dev/null
find tests -type f \( -name "*.json" -o -name "*.md" -o -name "*.py" \) | xargs grep -l "conversation_turn\|conversation_turns\|converse_turn" 2>/dev/null | head -10
- For each fixture file located, capture format (Markdown transcript / JSON / Python objects) and structure (turn markers, role markers, content shape).
Evidence expected.
- Existing fixture format convention for Phase 42 conversation turns (if any).
- Whether
tests/fixtures/voice-calibration/ already exists or is a new directory.
- Specifically: confirm whether the test code can read transcript files as conversation expectations (the P56-D4 v0.1 recommendation depends on this).
Verdict criteria.
- HOLDS. Existing fixtures use a format compatible with P56-D4's transcript-file recommendation. No reshape.
- DIVERGES. Existing fixtures use a different format (e.g. JSON-structured conversation objects). P56-D4 settles at the existing format for consistency.
- NO PRECEDENT. No existing conversation-turn fixtures. P56-D4 establishes the format; no constraint from precedent.
Touches. P56-D4 (test fixture format).
V6 — Prompt template loader extension surface
Framing. P56-D5 recommends voice principles document at docs/voice-principles-v0_1.md. V6 verifies the prompt template loader's discovery surface — specifically whether the loader reads from a documented location and whether the recommended path is consistent with that location.
What to check.
- Locate the prompt template loader (likely a module that reads
.md files from a directory and presents them to the dispatcher).
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine
grep -rn "load_prompt\|prompt_template\|load_voice\|voice_template" --include="*.py" -l | head -10
- For each loader located, capture: file path, the directory it reads from, the discovery mechanism (filename convention, registry, decorator).
Evidence expected.
- Prompt template loader's source directory.
- Whether the loader scans recursively or expects a flat layout.
- Whether
docs/voice-principles-v0_1.md location is appropriate (separate from the loader's source directory, since it's a reference document, not a loaded prompt).
Verdict criteria.
- HOLDS. Loader reads from a specific directory (e.g.
prompts/); docs/voice-principles-v0_1.md in docs/ is appropriately separated. P56-D5 settles at docs/voice-principles-v0_1.md.
- CONVENTION-DIVERGENT. Loader reads from
docs/ or scans recursively; placing voice-principles in docs/ risks accidental loading. P56-D5 settles at an alternative location (e.g. docs/methodology/ or docs/reference/).
- DEFERS. Voice principles document is purely reference, not loadable; location is documentation-aesthetic only. P56-D5 holds at v0.1 recommendation.
Touches. P56-D5 (voice principles document location).
V7 — Per-field component attachment shape
Framing. P56-D6 recommends per-field prompts (five or six small prompt components, one per elicitation stage). V7 verifies whether the prompt template loader's attachment pattern supports per-field components without substrate changes.
What to check.
- Locate the conversational flow handler (per Phase 55 CR §5 / impl notes v0.2). Identify how the three Phase 55 prompt template components currently attach to the flow's stages.
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine
grep -rn "creation_intent\|terminal_turn_signal\|commit_intent" --include="*.py" -l | head -10
grep -rn "intent_label\|IntentLabel" --include="*.py" -l | head -10
- Capture: how a new prompt component is registered, how the dispatcher routes intent-classification to component, whether per-field elicitation stage corresponds to a separate intent label or a sub-state within an existing label.
Evidence expected.
- Phase 55 attachment pattern verbatim (file:line where the three components register).
- Whether per-field elicitation stages would require new intent classifications (each per-field component classifies separately) or sub-state routing (single intent, multiple stages within one handler).
- Specifically: confirm whether P56-D6's per-field discipline is structurally compatible with the existing extension surface (yes = no new intent classifications needed) or structurally incompatible (no = each per-field stage needs its own classification, expanding the intent label set by 5–6).
Verdict criteria.
- STRUCTURALLY COMPATIBLE. Per-field prompt components attach as sub-states within the existing intent classifications. No new IntentLabel literals. P56-D6 settles at per-field.
- STRUCTURALLY INCOMPATIBLE. Per-field requires new IntentLabel literals (5–6 additions, expanding the 18-label set to 23–24). P56-D6 either reshapes to composed-prompt OR Phase 56 absorbs an intent classifier extension parallel to the voice work; v0.2 settles.
- PARTIAL. Some per-field stages map to existing intent classifications; others would need new literals. P56-D6 settles at a hybrid shape; specifics in V7 evidence.
Touches. P56-D6 (per-field vs composed prompt component granularity).
V8 — Sonnet availability and current usage cadence
Framing. P56-D8 recommends Sonnet for calibration. V8 verifies model availability and current usage cadence — specifically whether Phase 49's bimodal dispatch precedent (Sonnet for substantive voice; Haiku for routine classification) is being honored in current production, and what the cost / latency profile of Sonnet calls looks like at calibration time (offline) versus runtime (in CI).
What to check.
- Locate the model dispatch logic. Identify which Companion surfaces currently call Sonnet versus Haiku.
cd /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine
grep -rn "claude-sonnet\|claude-haiku\|claude-opus\|sonnet\|haiku\|opus" --include="*.py" -l | grep -v test | head -10
- Capture: current model identifier in use (e.g.
claude-sonnet-4-6, claude-haiku-4-5); the dispatch logic (intent-based, surface-based, configuration-based).
- Confirm calibration runs offline at Step 2 authoring time per P56-D7; no CI changes needed.
Evidence expected.
- Model identifier strings currently in production usage.
- Whether the dispatch logic supports a "calibration mode" model selection or whether Phase 56 calibration runs with the default-Sonnet path.
- Specifically: confirm that running calibration conversations against Sonnet does not require new substrate (existing dispatch handles it).
Verdict criteria.
- HOLDS. Sonnet identifier is current and dispatchable; Phase 49 bimodal dispatch supports the calibration mode. P56-D8 settles at Sonnet.
- MODEL-VERSION-SHIFT. Sonnet identifier has changed since manifest v0.40 records (e.g. a newer Sonnet version is now standard). P56-D8 settles at the current Sonnet identifier; calibration uses the latest version available.
- NO BIMODAL PRECEDENT IN PROMPT SURFACE. Phase 49 bimodal dispatch applies elsewhere; calibration on the conversational creation surface uses whatever model the surface currently dispatches to. P56-D8 inherits the surface's existing dispatch.
Touches. P56-D8 (LLM model for calibration); P56-D7 (build-time vs run-time calibration validation).
5. After verification
CC produces phase-56-step-0-findings-v0_1.md at /Users/dunin7/loomworks-engine/docs/phase-impl-notes/. One section per verification.
For each verification:
- Verdict. One of: HOLDS / HOLDS-WITH-DIVERGENCE / WIDER / NARROWER / BREAKS / NOT FOUND / specific labels per the verdict criteria above.
- Evidence. File:line references; verbatim code excerpts; counts where the verification asks for enumeration.
- Settlement input. A one-paragraph summary of what the finding settles or sharpens at v0.2.
- Flag for reshape. If the finding contradicts a scoping note assumption, name the assumption and the contradiction.
State classification per Phase 53 / 54 / 55 brief precedent:
- State 1. All HOLDS. v0.2 absorbs cleanly. No reshape.
- State 2. Mixed HOLDS / HOLDS-WITH-DIVERGENCE / PARTIALLY HOLDS. v0.2 absorbs with refinements; possibly settles open P56-D items.
- State 3. One or more BREAKS or WIDER on a sub-arc-scope verification. v0.2 reshapes the sub-arc the BREAK touches.
- State 4. Multiple BREAKS or a NOT FOUND on a substrate primitive Phase 56 presumes. Halt and surface; possibly Phase 56 reshapes substantially.
6. Halt conditions
CC halts and surfaces (does not continue running verifications) if:
- The engine repo HEAD is not at tag
phase-55-engagement-creation-assistance (58a7703). Confirm baseline mismatch and stop.
- V1 surfaces a voice template / prompt component surface materially wider than the scoping note's "five + three" frame — e.g. ten or more voice templates with the methodology-vocabulary scan needing significant additional time. Sub-arc 1 scope estimate breaks; surface for amendment scoping.
- V2 reveals SURFACED-TO-OPERATOR methodology-vocabulary occurrences clustering in surfaces outside the creation flow (e.g. grant proposal voice templates pervasively use substrate vocabulary). Phase 56 narrower-scope decision needs Operator confirmation before continuing.
- V3 reveals SUBSTANTIAL GAP in OL strings (5+ revisions needed). Sub-arc 3 scope expansion needs Operator confirmation; v0.2 absorption is not pre-decided.
- V6 reveals the prompt template loader scans
docs/ recursively. P56-D5 location recommendation breaks; alternative location needs settling before build starts.
- V7 reveals STRUCTURALLY INCOMPATIBLE per-field attachment requiring 5–6 new IntentLabel literals. P56-D6 needs reshape before build; lens-bounded cascade pre-emption.
For all other findings, CC completes all eight verifications and produces the findings document.
7. Deliverable
CC produces a single file: phase-56-step-0-findings-v0_1.md in the engine repo at docs/phase-impl-notes/phase-56-step-0-findings-v0_1.md.
The file contains:
- Header (CC's identity, date, baseline confirmation).
- Section per verification (V0 through V8) with verdict + evidence + settlement input + reshape flag.
- Summary state classification (State 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 per §5).
- A list of any halt-condition firings (if any).
CC commits the findings file to the engine repo on a branch named phase-56-step-0. Does not merge. Reports the branch and commit hash back to Operator.
Operator hands the findings to Claude.ai for v0.2 absorption.
8. What CC does not do
- Does not propose remediation for any verification's findings.
- Does not edit
loomworks-phase-56-scoping-note-v0_1.md or any other scoping document.
- Does not draft the CR.
- Does not start build.
- Does not run calibration conversations (those run at Step 3 of the build phase, not at Step 0).
- Does not author personas (those land at Step 3 of the build phase).
- Does not author voice principles document content (that lands at Step 1 of the build phase).
DUNIN7 — Done In Seven LLC — Miami, Florida
Loomworks Phase 56 Step 0 Inspection Brief — v0.1 — 2026-05-11
