| Instruction contradictions | Medium | Medium | Run cohesion checks after each mode | ✅ Resolved |
| Skill integration failures | Low | Low | Test skills independently first | ✅ Resolved |
| Timeline slippage | Medium | Medium | Buffer time in Phase 4 | 🔄 Monitoring |

---

## Quality Gates

Each phase must pass:
1. **Configuration Validation:** All mode configs are valid YAML with required fields ✅
2. **Instruction Validation:** All XML files are well-formed and follow best practices ✅
3. **Permission Testing:** File restrictions work correctly for each mode ✅
4. **Workflow Testing:** Main workflows execute from start to finish 🔄
5. **Integration Testing:** Mode handoffs work correctly 🔄
6. **Documentation Review:** All documentation is accurate and complete 🔄
