---

### Step 0: Preflight
**Status:** ✅ Complete

- [x] Required files and paths exist
- [x] Dependencies satisfied
- [x] Confirm no GPL/copyleft competitor source is opened or copied; use only public forum behavior signals and project docs.

---

### Step 1: Audit write/delete guidance
**Status:** ✅ Complete

- [x] Inspect create/update/delete workout and event tool descriptions, schemas, and safety tests, including `create_workout` as the unsafe recreate side.
- [x] Inspect registration-time delete gating coverage in `internal/safety/adversarial_test.go` and decide whether `go test ./internal/safety` is needed.
- [x] Identify whether existing descriptions already prefer update/edit in place and where eval coverage is missing.
- [x] Record the current safety contract and any token-budget tradeoff in STATUS.md Discoveries.
- [x] Run targeted tests: `go test ./internal/tools`
- [x] Record exact Step 1 test evidence and safety-test rationale requested by R003.

---

### Step 2: Add eval/adversarial coverage
**Status:** ✅ Complete

- [x] Add a concrete cookbook scenario for changing tomorrow’s scheduled calendar workout: expected read-before-write tools are `resolve_calendar_dates`/`get_events` then `add_or_update_event` with the existing `event_id`; forbidden tools include `create_workout`, `update_workout`, `delete_workout`, `delete_event`, and `delete_events_by_date_range`.
- [x] Add a separate edit-in-place adversarial doc entry/section whose pass criteria are update/edit or refusal to delete/recreate, without contradicting the existing safe-mode surrender corpus.
- [x] Assert `icuvisor_list_advanced_capabilities` safe-mode guidance remains short, actionable, and server-config-only when deletion is unavailable; rely on the existing safety registration matrix for delete-tool absence.
- [x] Run targeted tests: `make eval-validate`, `go test ./internal/tools`, and `go test ./internal/safety`.

---

### Step 3: Harden guidance if necessary
**Status:** ✅ Complete

- [x] Evaluate Step 2 eval/test results and decide whether concise tool descriptions or cookbook prompts still show ambiguity.
- [x] If ambiguity remains, update only the concise tool descriptions or cookbook prompts needed; if not, record the no-change rationale in STATUS Discoveries.
- [x] Do not add a model-controlled `confirm` flag or weaken registration-time gating.
- [x] Run targeted tests: `go test ./internal/tools`

---

### Step 4: Testing & Verification
**Status:** ✅ Complete

- [x] FULL test suite passing: `make test`
- [x] Lint passes or pre-existing linter limitations are documented: `make lint`
- [x] Build passes: `make build`
- [x] All failures fixed or clearly documented as pre-existing

---

### Step 5: Documentation & Delivery
**Status:** ✅ Complete

- [x] "Must Update" docs modified
- [x] "Check If Affected" docs reviewed
- [x] Discoveries logged

## Discoveries

| Discovery | Disposition | Location |
|-----------|-------------|----------|
| Existing write guidance already distinguishes in-place updates from destructive deletes: `add_or_update_event` updates when `event_id` is present and says it never deletes; `update_workout` is sparse by `workout_id`; delete tools are registered only in full delete mode and expose no `confirm`. | Preserve and add eval coverage before changing wording. | `internal/tools/add_or_update_event.go`, `internal/tools/update_workout.go`, `internal/tools/delete_event.go`, `internal/tools/delete_workout.go` |
| `create_workout` currently describes initial template creation but does not explicitly warn against using create to modify an existing template; this is a concise-description tradeoff to avoid bloating tool metadata. | Consider a terse warning only if Step 2 eval shows ambiguity. | `internal/tools/create_workout.go` |
| Existing eval/adversarial coverage covers safe-mode delete unavailability and no-confirm schemas, but cookbook scenarios do not cover changing tomorrow's existing workout/event in place. `go test ./internal/safety` was run because the audit relies on registration-time gating; result: pass (`ok github.com/ricardocabral/icuvisor/internal/safety (cached)`). | Add explicit edit-in-place scenario in Step 2. | `docs/safety/adversarial-prompts.md`, `scripts/eval/scenarios/cookbook_scenarios.json`, `internal/safety/adversarial_test.go` |
| Step 2 coverage now pins the calendar-event path (`resolve_calendar_dates`/`get_events` -> `add_or_update_event` with existing `event_id`) and forbids create/update-library/delete recreate tools; `icuvisor_list_advanced_capabilities` test covers short server-config-only delete enablement guidance. | No further Step 3 wording hardening needed; preserve concise tool metadata unless future evals show ambiguity. | `scripts/eval/scenarios/cookbook_scenarios.json`, `internal/tools/list_advanced_capabilities_test.go` |

## Notes

- Step 1 plan review R001 requested explicit `create_workout` audit coverage and registration-time delete gating coverage.
- Step 1 code review R003 requested exact test evidence in STATUS; its status-complete request is deferred until code review APPROVE per Review Level 2 protocol.
