Builder Agent Framework

The Builder Agent Framework defines how AI terminals perform bounded implementation work inside FounderGate. It converts lane contracts into controlled work sessions and forces every builder to produce evidence for checker review.

  • Accept only approved lane contracts.
  • Work only on the assigned branch and allowed files.
  • Respect forbidden files, protected paths, data class, risk class, and cost budget.
  • Record changed files, commands, tests, failures, blocked actions, and risk updates.
  • Produce builder work summaries and checker handoffs.
  • Stop or park when scope is unsafe, ambiguous, forbidden, or repeatedly failing.
  • Never work without a lane contract.
  • Never accept raw chat, notes, screenshots, or logs as instructions.
  • Never modify files outside allowed_files.
  • Never touch protected files, gates, locks, secrets, or data policies.

Build phases

This module is delivered in disciplined phases. Each phase is proof-gated before the next begins — the light shows the intended flow, not completion.

  1. Manual builder packet
  2. Read-only builder dry run
  3. Docs-only builder cage
  4. Small code builder cage
  5. Protected file enforcement
  6. Evidence output standard
  7. Stop / park / escalate logic
  8. Multi-builder parallel trial
  9. Trust tier integration

MOD-006 is a design roadmap. Pre-launch · Proof-gated · Not commercially available. Roadmap accepted does not equal product built. Internal proof does not equal outside proof.
