Module 02 Summary

What this module established

A role earns its tokens by making outputs impossible, not by sounding senior. The test for every backstory line: what output does this prevent? A goal must name the output that means it is finished, or the agent elaborates until something else stops it.

Carry forward

• Write the checking function before expected_output, then describe what it accepts. A contract you cannot execute is a preference.
• Split tasks where the output changes shape, pass structured data across the boundary, and declare the dependency with context.
• Task.context defaults to a NOT_SPECIFIED sentinel, so task.context or [] raises rather than giving you an empty list.

Before moving on

Move on when every backstory line rules something out, every goal names a finishing output, and your vaguest task has an executable contract.
