Principlev1
Specify completion criteria when one agent hands work to
Specify completion criteria when one agent hands work to another, defining what 'done' looks like for the receiving agent, to prevent both over-delivery and under-delivery failures.
Why This Is a Principle
This derives from Illusion of Explanatory Depth (self-assessment unreliable until forced articulation) and Mental Models Are Singular by Default (people construct single mental models without generating alternatives). It prescribes explicit specification of success criteria as part of handoff protocol—actionable across coordination contexts.
