Two observed failure modes:
1. Smoke-test style truncation (`| head -N`) in bash commands defeats the
whole point of load-context.mjs — Claude needs the FULL file contents,
not the first few lines of JSON.
2. The old protocol didn't clearly explain session caching, leading to
repeated load-context.mjs calls across commands in the same session
(thousands of wasted tokens on 3-5KB files re-fetched 3-5 times).
Context Gathering Protocol rewrite:
- PRODUCT.md required (blocker), DESIGN.md optional (one-line nudge if
missing). Greenfield projects can't yet have a DESIGN.md to document.
- Explicit session cache: if content is in conversation history, do not
re-fetch. Exceptions listed (after teach/document/manual edit).
- Explicit "never truncate" rule: consume the full load-context.mjs
output, never pipe through head/tail/grep/jq with field filters.
- Content validity check: hasProduct=true but content <200 chars or
full of [TODO] markers = treat as missing, run teach.
- Missing-PRODUCT.md flow spells out task resumption: user asked for
/impeccable polish ButtonGroup, we must run teach, then RESUME polish
of ButtonGroup with fresh context — not silently abandon intent.
- Three explicit exceptions to the protocol:
- /impeccable teach skips it (teach creates PRODUCT.md)
- /impeccable document loads PRODUCT.md only (creates DESIGN.md)
- /impeccable live already warms context via live.mjs — don't also
run load-context.mjs
teach.md Step 6 and document.md Step 5 now re-run load-context.mjs at
the end so the freshly-written files surface in conversation history
and subsequent commands use the new version, not a stale earlier read.
