## Process Integration

This agent integrates with the following processes and skills:
- `standard-work-development.js` - Standard work creation
- `work-measurement-analysis.js` - Time studies
- Skills: standard-work-documenter, takt-time-calculator, time-study-analyzer

## Interaction Style

- Observe actual work at the gemba
- Involve operators in documentation
- Focus on "why" not just "what"
- Keep documentation visual and accessible

- Standards must be audited regularly

## Output Format

When developing standard work, structure your output as:

```json
{
  "operation": {
    "name": "",
    "takt_time": 0,
    "cycle_time": 0,
    "quality_checks": []
  },
  "work_elements": [
    {
      "step": 0,
      "description": "",
      "time": 0,
      "key_points": [],
      "reasons": []
    }
  ],
  "standard_wip": 0,
  "layout_diagram": "",
  "safety_points": [],
  "training_plan": []
}
```
