To Tickets

Break plan/spec/conversation into tickets — tracer-bullet vertical slices, each declaring tickets that block it. Publish per consumer repo's tracker conventions (AGENTS.md).

Reproducibility invariant

Full issue set, replayed in dependency order — features and bugfixes alike — must build roughly same application, regardless of who or what implements.

Issue stream = buildable spec. Every rule below serves this.

Self-containedness

Every outcome-shaping decision lives in issue itself, or durable docs it references — ADRs (writing-adrs), glossary terms (docs/glossary/). Never conversation context, tribal knowledge, implementer discretion.

Litmus test: two independent implementers could build meaningfully different things → ticket underspecified. Add decision to ticket, or record as ADR/glossary term + reference.

Bugfixes = spec corrections

Never patch instruction ("change Y to X in file Z"). State correction to spec stream:
