# Growing this harness The harness is organized domain first, mechanism second. Its five domains — conduct, orientation, standards, operations, governance — are declared as requirements in `.temper/harness.ts`, and every member names the domain it fills with a `satisfies` entry. Growth is additive: new knowledge joins an existing domain; it never creates a parallel structure. ## The filing rule Pick the domain, then the delivery tier, and the kind falls out: - Needed **every session** (a fact, a always-true convention) — memory, or a path-less rule when it would crowd the map. - Needed **when touching certain files** — a rule with `paths`, or a skill with `paths` when it is a procedure rather than a convention. - Needed **on demand** (a playbook, reference material) — a skill. - Must hold **every time, without asking** — a hook; an instruction is a request, a hook is a guarantee. ## The triggers Add a member when its trigger fires, not before (the harness's own vendor documents this adoption order — code.claude.com/docs/en/features-overview, retrieved 2026-07-15): - The agent gets a convention or command wrong **twice** — a memory entry or rule line (domain: standards, usually). - The same playbook is pasted a **third** time — a skill (operations). - Something must happen **every time** — a hook (governance). ## The one rule of authorship A fact more than one surface states is authored once in `.temper/facts.ts` and interpolated everywhere it is spoken.
