# Session Handover: S-2026-0217-2128

## Where We Are

Built and completed T-125 (first-session orientation), T-126 (inception gate), T-127 (behavioral rules). All three fixes propagated via `fw init` into a fresh `/opt/001-sprechloop` project. Ready to run cycle 2 of the T-124 onboarding experiment — start a new Claude session in sprechloop and observe agent behavior.

## Work in Progress

<!-- horizon: now -->

### T-124: Validate framework new-project onboarding via live sprechloop experiment
- **Status:** started-work (horizon: now)
- **Last action:** Built T-125/T-126/T-127, deleted sprechloop, re-init from scratch
- **Next step:** Run cycle 2 — start new Claude session in /opt/001-sprechloop, observe agent behavior per docs/cycle2-protocol.md
- **Blockers:** None
- **Insight:** Clean delete+reinit is the only honest test of onboarding fixes

<!-- horizon: next -->

### T-128: Circuit breaker: consecutive-commit guardrail
- **Status:** captured (horizon: next)
- **Last action:** Task created in previous session
- **Next step:** Build after cycle 2 results — may not be needed if behavioral rules suffice
- **Blockers:** None
- **Insight:** Deferred to see if T-127 behavioral rules + T-126 inception gate are sufficient

### T-129: Inception template: Technical Constraints section
- **Status:** captured (horizon: next)
- **Last action:** Task created in previous session
- **Next step:** Add Technical Constraints section to inception.md template
- **Blockers:** None
- **Insight:** Deferred — tests constraint discovery via CLAUDE.md behavioral rules first

<!-- horizon: later -->

### T-120: Review Google Context Engineering whitepaper against framework
- **Status:** captured (horizon: later)
- **Last action:** Parked
- **Next step:** Read and compare when bandwidth allows
- **Blockers:** None
- **Insight:** Not urgent — T-124 experiment takes priority

## Inception Phases

**2 inception task(s) pending decision** — run `fw inception status` for details.

## Gaps Register

**1 spec-reality gap(s) being watched** — see `.context/project/gaps.yaml`

- **G-004** [low]: Multi-agent collaboration untested

Run `fw audit` to check if any trigger conditions are met.

## Decisions Made This Session

1. **Clean delete+reinit over session reset** — User argued (correctly) that only a full delete+reinit tests whether fw init propagates all fixes. Session reset would skip the init flow.
2. **Combined commit for T-125/T-126/T-127** — All three fixes are interdependent (all address cycle 1 observations). Shipped together for atomic validation.

## Things Tried That Failed

1. **Previous session (O-011)** — Burned entire context on analysis/planning without implementing. Lesson: 20% analysis, 80% building.

## Open Questions / Blockers

1. Will the behavioral rules in CLAUDE.md actually change agent behavior? Cycle 2 will answer this.
2. Is 2-commit threshold for inception gate the right number? May need tuning after cycle 2.

## Gotchas / Warnings for Next Session

- The sprechloop CLAUDE.md commit used "T-001" but T-001 doesn't exist yet — that's intentional (clean slate test)
- Cycle 2 protocol is in `docs/cycle2-protocol.md` — use the exact user prompts specified there
- L-039: Always commit BEFORE completing a task (work-completed moves file to completed/)

## Suggested First Action

Run cycle 2 of T-124: Start a new Claude session in `/opt/001-sprechloop`, follow the protocol in `docs/cycle2-protocol.md`, and observe whether the fixes changed agent behavior.

## Files Changed This Session

- Modified: `agents/git/lib/hooks.sh` (inception gate), `agents/git/git.sh` (version bump), `agents/context/check-active-task.sh` (inception awareness), `agents/context/lib/init.sh` (first-session), `agents/resume/resume.sh` (first-session), `lib/templates/claude-project.md` (behavioral rules), `CLAUDE.md` (behavioral rules)
- Created: `/opt/001-sprechloop/` (fresh project via fw init)

## Recent Commits

- 60e58fa T-126: Complete T-125, T-126, T-127 — task artifacts
- 89f9d16 T-126: Inception gate + T-125: First-session orientation + T-127: Behavioral rules
- c5fd62f T-124: Commit housekeeping from previous sessions
- e274c0d T-012: Emergency handover S-2026-0217-2107
- 32b301e T-124: O-011 analysis paralysis — session burned on planning, zero implementation
