§1 Checklist

#	Check	Result	Evidence
1	DoD met?	🔄 Partial	12/13 items met. 3 broken references left in live files (see §2)
2	Quality	✅ Pass	quickstart.md is clean, domain-agnostic, 46 lines. README prompts self-contained
3	Philosophy aligned	✅ Pass	quickstart.md separates learning from execution. Domain-agnostic throughout
4	Tech debt	⚠️ Issues	3 live broken refs to deleted .tfw/init.md (see §2)
5	Breaking changes	⚠️ Caution	.tfw/init.md deleted — projects that fork/copy the starter may reference it
6	Style & standards	✅ Pass	init.md Tutorial Mode mini-examples are concrete and helpful

§2 Findings

🔴 Broken references (must fix before APPROVE)

Deleting .tfw/init.md left 3 live references in framework core files:

#	File	Line	Current	Fix
1	.tfw/compilable_contract.md	15	.tfw/init.md → getting-started.md	→ .tfw/quickstart.md
2	.tfw/compilable_contract.md	97	.tfw/init.md in nav diagram	→ .tfw/quickstart.md
3	.tfw/conventions.md	209	"See .tfw/init.md for setup"	→ .tfw/quickstart.md
4	.tfw/workflows/update.md	72	.tfw/init.md in update checklist	→ .tfw/quickstart.md

🟡 Observations

#	Type	Detail
1	consistency	init.md Tutorial Mode line 23 says "If tutorial mode, suggest:" but previously said "Regardless of tutorial mode, suggest:" — the philosophy recommendation should be regardless of mode, not conditional
2	content	init.md mini-examples use RND prefix but TS specified LEE. Minor difference, RND is more generic — acceptable
3	scope	init.md Phase 2 Interview still has code-specific question: "What are your build/test/lint commands?" — should be more domain-agnostic or marked as software-specific. Out of scope for this task but noted
4	positive	quickstart.md Step 2 "Do not skip — each builds on the previous" is well done — enforces strict reading order
5	positive	CTA (star) placement after Phase 5 Verify is correct — after value delivery

§3 Tech Debt Collected

#	Source	Severity	File	Description	Action
1	Review obs. 3	Low	.tfw/workflows/init.md	Phase 2 Interview has code-specific question "build/test/lint commands" — should be domain-agnostic or conditional on project type	→ backlog
2	Review	Low	Historical task artifacts	40+ references to deleted .tfw/init.md in tasks/ folder — historical, no action needed but noted	→ accept (historical)

§4 Verdict

🔄 REVISE

Reason: 4 broken references to deleted .tfw/init.md in live framework files must be fixed before approval. These are in compilable_contract.md, conventions.md, and update.md — core files that agents and the doc pipeline actively read.

Fix scope: Update 4 lines across 3 files. No design changes needed.

After fix → re-verify → ✅ APPROVE.

§5 Fact Candidates

#	Fact	Category	Source
1	TFW has a chicken-and-egg problem at init: execution workflows assume context that doesn't exist yet. Fix: separate learning (quickstart.md) from execution (init.md)	architecture	TFW-31 RES
2	CTA (star, share) goes after value delivery, not during onboarding — standard marketing pattern	process	User insight
3	TFW is domain-agnostic — all examples, prompts, and workflows should use "decisions, reasoning, knowledge" not code-specific terminology	philosophy	User insight
4	Self-contained prompts: user copies prompt from README into agent — prompt must include everything (repo URL, what TFW is, what to read) because agent doesn't see surrounding context	convention	User insight
