tegwick 8590b366cd Close PQRST-WP-0002 T04/T05: executed in hall-of-helix under HOH-WP-0001
The hall-side work is done: CLOSING.md specifies the closing routine and is
reachable from README, ENTRY and AGENTS; entries carry a validated PQRST record
in frontmatter and body; make check enforces it for agent seats from 2026-09-06
with human seats exempt and existing seats grandfathered; the one manual
estimate is normalised.

Remaining here: the pilot (T01), the storage decision (T02) — which the hall
integration now makes concrete — and cutting v0.2 (T03).

pqrst-practice

A lightweight retrospective audit for closing agentic coding sessions: a forced 100% allocation of a session's effective engineering effort across five stable dimensions — Problem, Quality, Research, Security, Task organization.

Where did the effective engineering effort of this session actually go?

What a record looks like

PQRST-Estimate
P: 25%
Q: 15%
R: 45%
S: 0%
T: 15%
Sum: 100%
Confidence: medium
Signature: P25 Q15 R45 S0 T15
Dominant factors: Existing auth middleware was undocumented and contradicted the
README, so most attention went to reconstructing the request path before
changing behavior.

The numbers are the index. The Dominant factors sentence is the content — a signature stored without it is not auditable.

What this is not

Not a productivity score, not telemetry, not a planning target. There is no good profile: an exploration session is R-heavy, a hardening session Q-heavy, a credential integration S-heavy. The practice fails the moment anyone tries to score well on it.

This repository defines the practice and supplies the prompt. Collectors, validators, dashboards, and record storage belong elsewhere — see SCOPE.md.
