TS — {ID} / Phase {X}: {Title}

Current filename: TS__{ID}.md or TS__phase-{x}__{phase_slug}.md; a formal revision appends __rev{N}. Derive under conventions.md → Artifact file naming.

Date: YYYY-MM-DD Author: {author} Status: 🟡 TS_DRAFT — Awaiting approval Parent HL: HL-{ID}

1. Objective

{Delivered result and value.}

2. Scope

In Scope

• {included work}

Out of Scope

• {excluded work}

3. Principles Check

#	HL §7 principle	Enforced by	Gate
P1	{principle}	AC-{N} / N/A	{verification or reason}

4. Affected Files and Value-Bearing Accounting

Classify whole paths by semantic purpose and accepted-output/necessary-constituent precedence. Classes: VALUE, ASSURANCE, TRACE, DERIVED. A narrower exclusion requires a pre-work deterministic selector.

File / selector	Action	Class	Semantic reason / required result
path	CREATE / MODIFY / DELETE	{class}	{reason}

Prospective accounting contract

Fact	Approved value
Subject / exact VALUE selector	{paths or deterministic selector}
Baseline / selector source	{full immutable SHA}; this TS at
Candidate rule	First tested Executor commit with required VALUE+ASSURANCE, before EV/RF/REVIEW/final transition; excluded-only later writes do not move it; later VALUE requires a new Candidate and recomputation
Logical VALUE files	{planned count}; rename = one
Touched text LOC	{adds} + {deletes} = {total}; numeric numstat fields; binary/non-text = per-file N/A
Triggers / disposition	{configured file/LOC prompts; cause, cost, assurance, split, authority, terminal verdict, pre-work ref}
Multiplier / authority	{immutable planned denominator, boundaries, planned-zero rule, pre-work decision}
Approval epoch / failure	{prospective epoch}; missing/mutable/mismatched/late = BLOCKED; metric-only N/A; unresolved phase = INVALID; DEFERRED is non-terminal

git diff --name-status --find-renames=50% -z <BASELINE_SHA> <CANDIDATE_SHA> -- $valuePaths
git diff --numstat --find-renames=50% -z <BASELINE_SHA> <CANDIDATE_SHA> -- $valuePaths

Prospective scope rulings

{None, or pre-work cause/cost/assurance/split/Saint-Exupéry/authority/verdict/time reference.}

Task-local hard constraints (when material)

M1 consequence	M2 object/risk	M3 measure/selector	M4 pre-act check	M5 softer-control gap	M6 change authority
{harm}	{boundary}	{direct measure}	{check}	{reason}	{role}

Actions (not budget dimensions): {counts by class/action}. Immutable owner-approved denominator: {VALUE files and touched LOC}; never ratchets.

5. Acceptance Criteria

Each AC is independently verifiable; dependencies use [depends: AC-X]. Gate is synthetic verification; Evidence is real-environment verification: full/minimal spec, N/A — reason, DEFERRED — reason, or blank.

AC-1:

{Outcome.} - [ ] {criterion}

Gate: {command/check} Evidence: {real-environment check/status}

Evidence Artifacts

File	Description
evidence/EV__{ID}.md	Per-AC evidence and verdict (required)

6. Technical Guidance

• {non-binding reference; Executor may deviate with RF justification}

7. Definition of Failure

• ❌ {hard reject condition}

8. Phase Risks

Risk	Mitigation
{risk}	{mitigation}

9. Cross-Phase Modifications (multi-phase only)

File	Also modified in	Coordination note
path	Phase	{note}

References use compilable-contract patterns (RF TFW-18, D24, TD-72).
