iterative-refinement

To polish a deliverable efficiently, apply a structured second-pass refinement that targets observed defects. This preserves what's good while improving gaps, avoiding a full rework.

The best way to refine an imperfect document is to enumerate concrete defects, collect gate rejections, and process evaluation deltas to generate a revised output within a fixed budget.

Yes, targeted refinement applies to code modules, reports, designs, and documents that are usable but imperfect. It polishes the current output without requiring a complete restart.

You need a second-gradient refinement process when your design documentation has specific observed defects. It builds a gradient from those defects to ensure monotonic improvement.

Yes, iterative refinement works under a fixed budget constraint by processing evaluation deltas to generate a revised output. It enforces monotonic improvement constraints for efficiency.

Targeted polish requires enumerating concrete defects and collecting rejections beforehand. It is limited to usable but imperfect deliverables where monotonic improvement is sufficient.
