MANDATORY: Checkpoint Enforcement Rules (v8.2 — MCP-First)

> Full details: docs/CHECKPOINT-RULES.md

Rule 5: Override Refusal

사용자가 REQUIRED 체크포인트 스킵 요청 시: → AskUserQuestion으로 Override Refusal Template 제시 (텍스트 거부 아님) → REQUIRED는 어떤 상황에서도 스킵 불가 → 참조: `.claude/references/checkpoint-templates.md` → Override Refusal Template

Rule 6: MCP-First Verification

에이전트 실행 전: `diverga_check_prerequisites(agent_id)` 호출 → `approved: true` → 에이전트 실행 진행 → `approved: false` → `missing` 배열의 각 체크포인트에 대해 AskUserQuestion 호출 → MCP 미가용 시: `.research/decision-log.yaml` 직접 읽기 → 대화 이력은 최후 수단

단일 에이전트 호출 시:

1. `diverga_check_prerequisites(agent_id)` 호출 2. `approved: false` → 각 missing checkpoint에 대해 AskUserQuestion 도구 호출 3. REQUIRED 전제조건은 절대 스킵 불가 (사용자가 "건너뛰자"해도 Override Refusal Template 제시) 4. 모든 전제조건 통과 후 에이전트 작업 시작 5. 에이전트 완료 시 `diverga_mark_checkpoint()` 으로 결정 기록

다중 에이전트 동시 호출 시:

1. 모든 트리거된 에이전트의 prerequisites를 합집합으로 수집 2. Checkpoint Dependency Order에 따라 정렬 (Level 0 → Level 5) 3. 각 전제조건을 AskUserQuestion 도구로 순서대로 질문 4. 중복 체크포인트는 한 번만 질문 5. 모든 전제조건 해결 후 에이전트들을 병렬 실행 6. 각 에이전트 실행 중 자체 체크포인트도 AskUserQuestion 필수

모든 체크포인트에서:

1. 반드시 AskUserQuestion 도구 사용 (텍스트 질문 금지) 2. `.claude/references/checkpoint-templates.md`의 파라미터 사용 3. 응답 받을 때까지 STOP and WAIT 4. `diverga_mark_checkpoint(checkpoint_id, decision, rationale)` 으로 결정 기록

자기 검증 (에이전트 작업 완료 전):

• "Own Checkpoints"를 모두 트리거했는지 자가 확인
• 미트리거 체크포인트가 있으면 작업 마무리 전 반드시 호출
• `diverga_checkpoint_status()` 로 전체 현황 확인 가능

Human Checkpoint System

Checkpoint Types

| Level | Behavior | Checkpoints | |-------|----------|-------------| | **REQUIRED** | System STOPS - Cannot proceed without explicit approval | CP_RESEARCH_DIRECTION, CP_PARADIGM_SELECTION, CP_THEORY_SELECTION, CP_METHODOLOGY_APPROVAL | | **RECOMMENDED** | System PAUSES - Strongly suggests approval | CP_ANALYSIS_PLAN, CP_INTEGRATION_STRATEGY, CP_QUALITY_REVIEW | | **OPTIONAL** | System ASKS - Defaults available if skipped | CP_VISUALIZATION_PREFERENCE, CP_RENDERING_METHOD |

Required Checkpoints (MANDATORY HALT)

| Checkpoint | When | What to Ask | |------------|------|-------------| | **CP_RESEARCH_DIRECTION** | Research question finalized | "Research direction is set. Shall we proceed?" + VS alternatives | | **CP_PARADIGM_SELECTION** | Methodology approach | "Please select your research paradigm: Quantitative/Qualitative/Mixed" | | **CP_THEORY_SELECTION** | Framework chosen | "Please select your theoretical framework" + VS alternatives | | **CP_METHODOLOGY_APPROVAL** | Design complete | If VS Arena enabled → dispatch `/diverga:vs-arena`; else present methodology + VS alternatives | | **CP_META_GATE** | Meta-analysis gate failure | "Meta-analysis gate validation failed. Please select direction" (C5) | | **SCH_DATABASE_SELECTION** | Before paper retrieval | "Please select databases" (I1) | | **SCH_SCREENING_CRITERIA** | Before AI screening | "Please approve inclusion/exclusion criteria" (I2) |

Recommended Checkpoints (SUGGESTED HALT)

| Checkpoint | When | What to Ask | |------------|------|-------------| | **CP_ANALYSIS_PLAN** | Before analysis | "Would you like to review the analysis plan?" | | **CP_INTEGRATION_STRATEGY** | Mixed methods only | "Please confirm the integration strategy" | | **CP_QUALITY_REVIEW** | Assessment done | "Please review quality assessment results" |
