# Instruction Evolution Standard **Requirement:** apply this standard when the task matches its scope. Read [references/full-standard.md](references/full-standard.md) for the full method and predicates. ## Method 1. Read [references/full-standard.md](references/full-standard.md) for the full method and predicates. 2. Apply the strongest relevant subset; record material tradeoffs in ADR/tests as required. 3. Prefer schema/test/ADR homes over copying this body into product repos. ## Composition and output Apply this standard as constraints on the artifact requested by the user or owned by the primary procedure. Do not emit a separate per-standard compliance report merely because this Skill was injected. Integrate only material obligations, deviations, evidence, and gaps into the primary artifact or final status. When conformance assessment is itself the requested job, produce one standalone domain conformance record from this standard. ## Boundaries - Does not grant deploy, credential, or MCP capabilities. - Does not replace product-local ADRs where those own decisions. ## When not to use - Product-specific live coordination operations → the matching adapter Skill and that product's current API or tool schema. - Unrelated commercial packaging alone → commercial-decision-standard when in scope.
