Bands

No claims without evidence: flags "tests pass", "CI green" and "verified" claims that nothing in the turn backs up.

A second player reviews before the PR: gh pr create waits for a second-model review of the branch diff, and a failing review with a high finding blocks it.

The fix must make a test fail first: reverts your source changes, runs the changed tests and requires a failure, restores (verified by hash) and requires a pass. Optional gate on git push and gh pr create.

A save point before compaction: the task's goal, step, branch, links, decisions, rules and next step are saved before /compact and handed back to the model after it, with a pixel-art SAVE POINT band when it is safe to compact.

Auto-continue after a turn dies on a network or API error: a pixel-art CONTINUE? countdown with backoff and 3 lives per hour.

Session modes that are enforced, not requested: investigate, draft, build, ship. Denies the tool calls a stance rules out, auto-switches on phrases like "no code", and shows a pixel-art class badge above the prompt.

Rules that are enforced, not remembered: deny, ask, rewrite or note on any tool call, subagents included. A pixel-art trap for every mistake you already wrote down.
