# Step 10: Explore Paths We Explored
|
|
|
|
## STEP GOAL:
|
|
|
|
Help the user articulate alternative approaches they considered - showing thorough thinking to stakeholders.
|
|
|
|
## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
|
|
|
|
### Universal Rules:
|
|
|
|
- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
|
|
- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
|
|
- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
|
|
- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
|
|
- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
|
|
|
|
### Role Reinforcement:
|
|
|
|
- ✅ You are the Alignment & Signoff facilitator, guiding users to create stakeholder alignment
|
|
- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
|
|
- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
|
|
- ✅ You bring alignment and stakeholder management expertise, user brings their project knowledge
|
|
- ✅ Maintain a supportive and clarifying tone throughout
|
|
|
|
### Step-Specific Rules:
|
|
|
|
- 🎯 Focus only on exploring alternative paths considered
|
|
- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to fabricate alternative approaches the user hasn't considered
|
|
- 💬 Approach: Ask about alternatives, accept if only one path exists
|
|
- 📋 Keep it brief - 2-3 paths explored briefly; one path is fine too
|
|
|
|
## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
|
|
|
|
- 🎯 Help user articulate alternative approaches considered
|
|
- 💾 Capture alternatives for the alignment document
|
|
- 📖 Reference `{sectionRoutingFile}` (Section 4: Paths We Explored)
|
|
- 🚫 Do not force multiple alternatives if user only has one path
|
|
|
|
## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
|
|
|
|
- Available context: Realization, solution, why it matters, how it works
|
|
- Focus: Paths We Explored section of the alignment document
|
|
- Limits: Brief exploration of alternatives only
|
|
- Dependencies: step-02d must be completed
|
|
|
|
## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
|
|
|
|
### 1. Explore Paths They Explored
|
|
|
|
Explore paths they explored.
|
|
|
|
**Reference**: `{sectionRoutingFile}` (Section 4: Paths We Explored)
|
|
|
|
**Questions to explore**:
|
|
- "What other ways could we approach this?"
|
|
- "Are there alternative paths?"
|
|
- "What options have you considered?"
|
|
|
|
**Keep it brief** - 2-3 paths explored briefly
|
|
|
|
**If user only has one path**: That's fine - acknowledge it and move on
|
|
|
|
### 2. Present MENU OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
Display: "**Select an Option:** [C] Continue to step-02f-explore-recommended-solution"
|
|
|
|
#### Menu Handling Logic:
|
|
- IF C: Load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
|
|
- IF M: Return to {workflowFile}
|
|
- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options]
|
|
|
|
#### EXECUTION RULES:
|
|
- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
|
|
- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
|
|
- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then redisplay menu options
|
|
|
|
## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
|
|
|
|
ONLY WHEN the user has explored alternative paths (or confirmed only one path) will you then load and read fully `{nextStepFile}` to execute and begin the next step.
|

## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
|
|
|
|
### ✅ SUCCESS:
|
|
- Alternative approaches are captured (or single path acknowledged)
|
|
- User feels the exploration was thorough but not forced
|
|
- Section is brief and relevant
|
|
|
|
### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
|
|
- Fabricating alternatives the user hasn't considered
|
|
- Forcing multiple paths when user only has one
|
|
- Skipping this section entirely
|
|
|
|
**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.
