Phase 2: Requirements, testing, and documentation enhancements
Implements all Phase 2 high-priority recommendations from expert panel:
**1. Requirements Improvement** (Karl Wiegers, Gojko Adzic)
- Enhanced templates/PROMPT.md with 6 concrete Given/When/Then scenarios
- Specification by Example format for all exit conditions
- Clear expectations for each scenario type:
* Successful completion
* Test-only loops
* Stuck on errors
* No work remaining
* Making progress
* Blocked on dependencies
**2. Use Case Documentation** (Alistair Cockburn)
- Created comprehensive USE_CASES.md (600+ lines)
- Defined 6 primary use cases with full Cockburn format:
* UC-1: Execute Development Loop
* UC-2: Detect Project Completion
* UC-3: Prevent Resource Waste
* UC-4: Handle API Rate Limits
* UC-5: Provide Loop Monitoring
* UC-6: Reset Circuit Breaker
- Includes actors, goals, success scenarios, extensions, edge cases
- Clear goal hierarchy and success metrics
**3. Enhanced Test Coverage** (Lisa Crispin, Janet Gregory)
- Added tests/integration/test_edge_cases.bats (20 new tests)
- Edge cases: empty files, large files, corrupted JSON, unicode
- Boundary conditions: exact thresholds, overflow scenarios
- Error conditions: missing git, malformed data, rapid transitions
- All 40 integration tests passing (100% success rate)
**4. Circuit Breaker Robustness**
- Enhanced init_circuit_breaker() with corruption detection
- Auto-recovery from corrupted state/history files
- Validates JSON before use, recreates if invalid
**5. Specification Workshop Guide**
- Created SPECIFICATION_WORKSHOP.md
- Three Amigos methodology with templates
- Includes complete example workshop
- Best practices and red flags
- Quick 15-minute template for small features
**Test Results**: 40/40 integration tests passing
**Documentation Added**: 1,200+ lines (USE_CASES.md, SPECIFICATION_WORKSHOP.md)
**Coverage Improvement**: Edge cases and error conditions fully tested

Implement Phase 1 critical fixes: Response analyzer & circuit breaker
Implements all Phase 1 recommendations from expert panel review:
1. **Response Analysis Pipeline** (Martin Fowler recommendation)
- New lib/response_analyzer.sh component
- Parses Claude Code output for completion signals
- Detects test-only loops and stagnation
- Updates .exit_signals file with structured data
- Tracks confidence scores and progress indicators
2. **Circuit Breaker Pattern** (Michael Nygard recommendation)
- New lib/circuit_breaker.sh component
- Three-state pattern: CLOSED → HALF_OPEN → OPEN
- Prevents runaway token consumption
- Detects: no progress (3 loops), same errors (5 loops)
- Automatic halt with clear user guidance
- Manual reset capability
3. **Structured Output Contract** (Sam Newman recommendation)
- Updated PROMPT.md template with RALPH_STATUS format
- Defines clear JSON-parseable exit signals
- SMART criteria for completion detection
- Concrete examples for all scenarios
4. **Integration & Testing**
- ralph_loop.sh integration of both components
- 20 comprehensive BATS integration tests (all passing)
- Tests cover: signal detection, circuit states, full loop flows
- Validates Phase 1 implementation correctness
**Impact**: Solves infinite loop problem, enables reliable exit detection,
prevents token waste through systematic stagnation detection.
**Test Results**: 20/20 integration tests passing
