danmcinerney/orchflows/design-increment

Use the handoff contract. Inputs: request context, baseline, options, research evidence and any prior observations; equivalent caller material suffices.

For assignment design-increment, choose one coherent increment; explain the choice and rejected alternatives. Specify changed behavior, boundaries, implementation outline, risks and dependencies. The first cycle must target a minimum working PoC from the actual baseline.

Return an implementable design and evaluation plan fixed before implementation: acceptance criteria, baseline behavior to preserve, shared inputs/harness and conditions, expected old-state deficits, improvement measures, and required/optional checks. Mark blocking questions. If no change is justified, return that conclusion and evidence for analysis.
