Propose Hypotheses Workflow Execute the First Principles Framework (FPF) cycle: generate competing hypotheses, verify logic, validate evidence, audit trust, and produce a decision. User Input Workflow Execution Step 1a: Create Directory Structure (Main Agent) Create .fpf/ directory structure if it does not exist: Postcondition : .fpf/ directory scaffold exists. Step 1b: Initialize Context (FPF Agent) Launch fpf agent with sonnet[1m] model: Description : "Initialize FPF context" Prompt : Step 2: Generate Hypotheses (FPF Agent) Launch fpf agent with sonnet[1m] model: Description : "Generate L0 hypotheses" Prompt : Step 3: Present Summary (Main Agent) 1. Read all L0 hypothesis files from .fpf/knowledge/L0/ 2. Present summary table from agent response. 3. Ask user: "Would you like to add any hypotheses of your own? (yes/no)" Step 4: Add User Hypothesis (FPF Agent, Conditional Loop) Condition : User says yes to adding hypotheses. Launch fpf agent with sonnet[1m] model: Description : "Add user hypothesis" Prompt : Loop : Return to Step 3 after hypothesis is added. Exit : When user says no or declines to add more. Step 5: Verify Logic (Parallel Sub Agents) Condition : User finished adding hypotheses. For EACH L0 hypothesis file in .fpf/knowledge/L0/ , launch parallel fpf agent with sonnet[1m] model: Description : "Verify hypothesis: <hypothesis id " Prompt : Wait for all agents , then check that files are moved to .fpf/knowledge/L1/ or .fpf/knowledge/invalid/ . Step 6: Validate Evidence (Parallel Sub Agents) For EACH L1 hypothesis file in .fpf/knowledge/L1/ , launch parallel fpf agent with sonnet[1m] model: Description : "Validate hypothesis: <hypothesis id " Prompt : Wait for all agents , then check that files are moved to .fpf/knowledge/L2/ or .fpf/knowledge/invalid/ . Step 7: Audit Trust (Parallel Sub Agents) For EACH L2 hypothesis file in .fpf/knowledge/L2/ , launch parallel fpf agent with sonnet[1m] model: Description : "Audit trust: <hypothesis id " Prompt : Wait for all agents , then check that audit reports are created in .fpf/evidence/ . Step 8: Make Decision (FPF Agent) Launch fpf agent with sonnet[1m] model: Description : "Create decision record" Prompt : Wait for agent , then check that decision record is created in .fpf/decisions/ . Step 9: Present Final Summary (Main Agent) 1. Read the DRR from .fpf/decisions/ 2. Present results from agent response. 3. Present next steps: Implement the selected hypothesis Use /fpf:status to check FPF state Use /fpf:actualize if codebase changes 4. Ask user if he agree with the decision, if not launch fpf agent at step 8 with instruction to modify the decision as user wants. Completion Workflow complete when: [ ] .fpf/ directory structure exists [ ] Context recorded in .fpf/context.md [ ] Hypotheses generated, verified, validated, and audited [ ] DRR created in .fpf/decisions/ [ ] Final summary presented to user Artifacts Created : .fpf/context.md Problem context .fpf/knowledge/L0/ .md Initial hypotheses .fpf/knowledge/L1/ .md Verified hypotheses .fpf/knowledge/L2/ .md Validated hypotheses .fpf/knowledge/invalid/ .md Rejected hypotheses .fpf/evidence/ .md Evidence files .fpf/decisions/ .md Design Rationale Record
