LEVEL 5 · CONTROLLED IMPLEMENTATION

Plan in proportion to risk

Choose the smallest justified implementation plan.

01 / PREDICT

Does a one-line bug require an architecture redesign?

02 / EXPLAIN

The judgment behind the action

Planning reduces uncertainty when it identifies concrete risks and checks. For a small fix, inspect, reproduce, patch, and verify may suffice. Larger work needs dependencies, rollback boundaries, and review points. Compare options when a decision changes architecture.

03 / DEMONSTRATE

A bounded way to ask

Compare a focused predicate fix, a utility extraction, and a rewrite. Recommend the smallest change that satisfies the acceptance criteria.
04 / PRACTICE

Reject a rewrite proposal for a local comparison bug.

Does a one-line bug require an architecture redesign?

Choose the best next action

Guided practice contributes completion, not independent mastery.

06 / REFLECT

Make the lesson yours.

Your reflection is attached when you submit your decision. Drafts remain in this tab.

07 / TRANSFER

Try it somewhere unfamiliar.

Apply this skill to an unfamiliar repository: reject a rewrite proposal for a local comparison bug. Record the evidence you would need.
