# Implementation Plan: Conductor Workflow Improvements

## Phase 1: Skill Document Hardening [checkpoint: 3800347]
Focus: Update the agent skill prompts to enforce strict discipline.

- [x] Task 1.1: Update `.gemini/skills/mma-tier2-tech-lead/SKILL.md`. Add a new section `## Anti-Entropy Protocol` requiring the Tech Lead to: (1) Use `py_get_code_outline` on the target class's `__init__` to check for redundant state before adding new variables; (2) Ensure failing tests are written and executed *before* delegating implementation to Tier 3. 82cec19
- [x] Task 1.2: Update `.gemini/skills/mma-tier3-worker/SKILL.md`. Add an explicit directive in the `## Responsibilities` section: "You MUST write a failing test and verify it fails (the Red phase) BEFORE writing any implementation code. Do NOT write tests that contain only `pass` or lack assertions." 87fa4ff

## Phase 2: Workflow Documentation Updates [checkpoint: 608a4de]
Focus: Add safeguards to the global Conductor workflow.

- [x] Task 2.1: Update `conductor/workflow.md`. In the `High-Signal Research Phase` section, add a requirement to audit class initializers (`__init__`) for existing, unused, or duplicate state variables before adding new ones. b00d9ff
- [x] Task 2.2: Update `conductor/workflow.md`. In the `Test-Driven Development` section, explicitly ban zero-assertion tests and state that a test is only valid if it contains assertions that test the behavioral change. e334cd0
