Work

Outcome: The requested result exists in the target context with direct work evidence for an independent verifier.

Done: The accepted scope is complete, obvious local checks pass or have an explicit limit, unrelated state remains unchanged, and the candidate is ready for verification.

Assignment

The required input is a clear work request, work brief, or executable plan. Before action, confirm the target result, scope, acceptance conditions, context, authority, and next verifier. Start here when these contracts are already resolved. Do not repeat an understanding or planning step for ceremony. Ask only when a missing decision can materially change value, result, scope, cost, or authority.
