Scope before code
Every meaningful change needs allowed files, blocked files, proof, test plan, and rollback.
Build changes through specs, tests, and rollback.
Atlas can prepare BuildSpecs, preview diffs, run tests, and write proof. Production changes remain gated by policy and approval.
No broad mutation
Atlas does not broad-stage, deploy Workers, change payments, or mutate unrelated files from public site actions.
Improve from proof
Completed work can become an Experience Pack and teach specialized agents.
