principle-outcome-oriented-execution

A planning rule for rewrites and migrations that focuses on reaching the intended final architecture, with clear points for checking that it works.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it during planned rewrites or migrations when defining phases, deciding which temporary changes are acceptable, and performing final static and runtime checks.
Why use it?
It avoids keeping temporary compatibility code merely to make every intermediate step look stable. Planned and reversible intermediate breakage is acceptable under this approach.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

principle-outcome-oriented-execution scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

91% identical to principle-outcome-oriented-execution — 1 line differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Outcome-Oriented Execution

Optimize for the intended, verifiable end state rather than preserving smooth intermediate states.

Why: Keeping every intermediate step fully stable often creates temporary compatibility code that becomes long-lived debt. Converge on the target architecture and prove correctness at explicit verification boundaries.

Core rule:

  • Prioritize end-state integrity over transitional stability
  • Intermediate breakage is acceptable when it is planned, scoped, and reversible
  • Always run final verification before declaring done

Guardrails:

  • Use this for planned rewrites and migrations with explicit phase boundaries
  • Declare where temporary breakage is acceptable
  • Keep high-signal checks for actively touched areas while migrating
  • Require full static and runtime verification at plan completion
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
