Change Principles

Changes in agentic-proteins should make compatibility forwarding more explicit, not more mixed. If a change needs several different justifications, it probably spans too many owners.

Principles

  • strengthen one named role per change set
  • move proof with the behavior when docs, contracts, or tests also change
  • reject shortcuts that make neighboring package boundaries less visible

First Proof Check

  • the local package tests
  • the matching handbook pages
  • neighboring packages if the change alters a handoff seam
