TS โ€” TFW-46 / Phase C: Glossary + Adapters + Version

Date: 2026-07-07 Author: Coordinator (Antigravity, Claude Opus 4.6) Status: ๐ŸŸก TS_DRAFT โ€” Awaiting approval Parent HL: HL-TFW-46


1. Objective

Finalize the Evidence Layer by updating the glossary with new terms, syncing adapter workflow copies (.agent/workflows/ and .claude/commands/), bumping the version to 0.8.8, and writing the CHANGELOG entry. After this phase, TFW 0.8.8 is the canonical version with Evidence as a complete, documented concept.

2. Scope

In Scope

  • glossary.md โ€” new Evidence terms + fix TD-2 stale ref (RF ยง7 โ†’ ยง8)
  • Adapter copies: .agent/workflows/tfw-{handoff,review,plan}.md (synced from .tfw/workflows/)
  • Adapter copies: .claude/commands/tfw-{handoff,review,plan}.md (synced from .tfw/workflows/)
  • VERSION โ€” 0.8.7 โ†’ 0.8.8
  • CHANGELOG.md โ€” entry for 0.8.8

Out of Scope

  • Cursor adapter (.cursor/rules/tfw.mdc) โ€” template only, no workflow copies to sync
  • Adapter template files (.tfw/adapters/*/) โ€” templates reference .tfw/, no content duplication
  • KNOWLEDGE.md updates โ€” no architecture decisions emerged from Phase A/B that require documentation

3. Principles Check

# Principle (from HL ยง7) Enforced by Gate
P4 Domain-agnostic by default AC-1 (glossary terms use no domain-specific examples) Review glossary text
P2 Honest incompleteness AC-1 (DEFERRED/BLOCKED defined as terms) Glossary entries

P1, P3, P5-P7 are enforced by Phase A (templates) and Phase B (workflows). Phase C is documentation and sync โ€” no new behavioral enforcement.

4. Affected Files

File Action Description
.tfw/glossary.md MODIFY New Evidence terms + fix stale RF ยง7 โ†’ ยง8 ref
.agent/workflows/tfw-handoff.md MODIFY Sync from .tfw/workflows/handoff.md (Phase A+B changes)
.agent/workflows/tfw-review.md MODIFY Sync from .tfw/workflows/review.md (Phase A+B changes)
.agent/workflows/tfw-plan.md MODIFY Sync from .tfw/workflows/plan.md (Phase B changes)
.claude/commands/tfw-handoff.md MODIFY Sync from .tfw/workflows/handoff.md
.claude/commands/tfw-review.md MODIFY Sync from .tfw/workflows/review.md
.claude/commands/tfw-plan.md MODIFY Sync from .tfw/workflows/plan.md
.tfw/VERSION MODIFY 0.8.7 โ†’ 0.8.8
.tfw/CHANGELOG.md MODIFY Add [0.8.8] entry

Budget: 0 new files, 9 modifications. Defaults: max 26 files, max 18 new, max 500 LOC.

5. Acceptance Criteria

AC-1: Glossary updated with Evidence terms

Glossary.md has new entries for Evidence-related terms under a new "Evidence" heading or within existing sections, following the established glossary entry pattern. - [ ] New terms defined: Evidence (concept), Evidence Plan (TS field), Evidence Collection (RF ยง5 / handoff Step 11), Evidence Audit (reviewer action in verify.md/judge.md) - [ ] Evidence status vocabulary defined: VERIFIED, DEFERRED, BLOCKED, N/A โ€” each with a one-line description - [ ] Terms use no domain-specific examples โ€” definitions are abstract/universal - [ ] Cross-references to conventions.md ยง3 (Evidence Sections) where appropriate - [ ] Fix TD-2: Strategic Insight entry updated from RF ยง7 to RF ยง8

Gate: Read glossary.md โ€” Evidence terms present, TD-2 fixed, no domain-specific examples Evidence: N/A โ€” glossary is a definition document

AC-2: Adapter workflow copies synced

All adapter workflow copies match their canonical .tfw/workflows/ sources after Phase A and Phase B modifications. - [ ] .agent/workflows/tfw-handoff.md content matches .tfw/workflows/handoff.md - [ ] .agent/workflows/tfw-review.md content matches .tfw/workflows/review.md - [ ] .agent/workflows/tfw-plan.md content matches .tfw/workflows/plan.md - [ ] .claude/commands/tfw-handoff.md content matches .tfw/workflows/handoff.md - [ ] .claude/commands/tfw-review.md content matches .tfw/workflows/review.md - [ ] .claude/commands/tfw-plan.md content matches .tfw/workflows/plan.md

Gate: diff canonical vs adapter copies โ€” all 6 pairs identical Evidence: N/A โ€” mechanical copy operation

AC-3: Version bump

VERSION file updated from 0.8.7 to 0.8.8. - [ ] .tfw/VERSION contains 0.8.8

Gate: Read VERSION file Evidence: N/A โ€” single-line change

AC-4: CHANGELOG entry [depends: AC-3]

CHANGELOG.md has a new [0.8.8] entry under [Unreleased] documenting all Evidence Layer changes from Phases A, B, and C. Entry follows Keep a Changelog format. - [ ] Entry has correct version and date: ## [0.8.8] โ€” 2026-07-07 - [ ] Entry has Added, Changed sections documenting Evidence Layer changes - [ ] Entry references TFW-46 and its phases (A, B, C) - [ ] [Unreleased] section remains (empty or with any remaining unreleased items)

Gate: Read CHANGELOG.md โ€” entry present, format correct, references TFW-46 Evidence: N/A โ€” documentation

6. Technical Guidance

Reference material, not instructions. Executor MAY deviate with justification in RF.

  • Glossary entry pattern: See existing entries (e.g., Fact Candidate, Strategic Insight, Per-template Naming). Each has: term name as h3, 2-3 line definition, cross-reference to conventions.md. Evidence terms should follow the same density.
  • Evidence heading placement: Consider a new ## Evidence Terms section after ## Knowledge Terms (line 42) โ€” follows the same grouping pattern.
  • Adapter sync: Previous tasks (TFW-42, TFW-43) used file copy. The canonical workflow files are the source of truth. Adapter copies are byte-identical copies.
  • CHANGELOG format: See [0.8.7] entry as reference. Group by Added/Changed/Removed. Reference task IDs. One entry per logical change.
  • TD-2 location: glossary.md line 48, Strategic Insight entry โ€” RF ยง7 "Strategic Insights (Execution)" should be RF ยง8.

7. Definition of Failure

  • โŒ Glossary terms use code-specific examples (screenshots, browser, curl)
  • โŒ Adapter copies diverge from canonical sources after sync
  • โŒ CHANGELOG entry is incomplete (misses Phase A or B changes)
  • โŒ Version bump without CHANGELOG entry

8. Phase Risks

Risk Mitigation
Adapter copies have local modifications not in canonical files Check for differences before overwriting โ€” if any exist, document in RF Observations
CHANGELOG entry too verbose Follow existing density โ€” [0.8.7] has ~10 lines for 3 subsections. Aim for similar
Glossary grows too large with Evidence terms Keep definitions to 2-3 lines each, no examples โ€” conventions.md has the details
