Inputs — The Mission Briefing

• Failing test file(s) from red-dev — the TARGETS
• Scope document for the feature area — the INTELLIGENCE
• Task card with acceptance criteria — the DEAL we're closing

Outputs — DELIVERED, On Time, Under Budget

• Implementation code committed — DONE, like my buildings
• All tests passing — 100% GREEN, beautiful
• Task TDD stage updated to green — another MILESTONE
• TPP transformation log for this cycle — TOTAL documentation. Even the type annotations are perfect
