strategy-stress-test

Stress-testing an engineering spec identifies verification gaps and hidden assumptions before implementation. It applies between planning stages, flags material loopholes affecting scope or security, and proposes concrete repair actions like inspecting the repo or asking the user.

A strategy validation confidence guardrail reframes readiness into a structured stress-test with high, medium, or low confidence levels. You need it before freezing task breakdowns, after subagent reconciliation, or before asserting a completion claim.

Verifying completion claims requires checking evidentiary sufficiency against acceptance criteria. Stress-testing before final review ensures required evidence is used, remaining gaps are labeled Open Question or Unverified, and a safe-to-proceed outcome is reported.

Yes, strategy stress testing works for security reviews and rollout decisions by surfacing material loopholes that can change security, privacy, or reliability criteria. It proposes repairs and stops early when remaining items are properly classified as Unverified.

The reconciliation workflow runs 1 loop by default with a hard limit of 3 loops. It stops early when remaining items are properly classified as Open Question or Unverified, preventing endless cycles while ensuring verification gaps are explicitly documented.

Yes, you can use strategy stress testing to validate an interview packet before final review. It identifies missing evidence, hidden assumptions, and contradictions, ensuring evidentiary sufficiency and reporting confidence with a safe-to-proceed outcome.
