QRSPI Methodology: Engineering Workflow Guide

The QRSPI methodology is an agentic engineering protocol designed to guarantee deterministic, high-quality, and regression-free software outcomes across 5 sequential phases:

[ 1. QUESTION ] ➔ [ 2. RESEARCH ] ➔ [ 3. STRUCTURE ] ➔ [ 4. PLAN ] ➔ [ 5. IMPLEMENT ]

Every non-trivial engineering task MUST complete each phase sequentially before advancing to the next.

🛑 Non-Negotiable Invariant: Mandatory Turn Termination & User Sign-Off

[!IMPORTANT] STRICT EXECUTION GATE: EXACTLY ONE PHASE PER TURN.
AI Agents MUST NEVER execute multiple QRSPI phases in a single continuous turn. At the completion of EVERY SINGLE PHASE (after persisting the stage artifact), the agent MUST STOP CALLING TOOLS, OUTPUT ITS SUMMARY AND QUESTIONS TO THE USER, AND END ITS TURN.
The agent is STRICTLY PROHIBITED from advancing to the subsequent phase until the user explicitly reviews, debugs, and confirms approval in their response.
