## Summary
Iterative refinements to the partner design-doc doctrine after running
it on a second lead (TADA) and reviewing output side by side. Touches
only the `twenty-partner-design-doc` skill files (doctrine + Claude Code
wrapper); no runtime / app code.
**What changed**
- **Flag system:** emoji + short text label pairs only (`🔮 inf.`, **❓
open**, **⚠️ heavy**, **🛑 blocker**). Replaces the prior text-tag-only
system; scannable, unambiguous.
- **Section structure:** split into **Required** (always present) and
**Conditional** (Views, Automations, Integrations, Reporting). Include
conditional sections only when the client grounded them in the source.
Number sequentially, no gaps.
- **No filler placeholders:** banned `X was not named` / `left out on
purpose` lists in body sections. Unknowns belong in Open questions, not
as their own section or bullet.
- **Functional cross-refs:** every `§N` reference is now a markdown
anchor link `[§N](#n-section-slug)`, so a partner skimming the doc can
navigate. Bare `§N` is banned.
- **Bullets and tables over paragraphs**, with **Open questions** kept
as a numbered list (so the partner can read items 1, 2, 3 with the
client).
- **Views & navigation** rendered as a tight `Surface | Shows |
Audience` table. No view-type column — table / kanban / page layout is
the partner's call, not a scoping decision.
- **Data-model table** gains a `Source` column (`client` / `inf.`) for
at-a-glance fact-vs-inference visibility.
- **Business decisions over technical mechanics:** cut SDK / runtime
internals that don't move the quote (Docker version, OAuth flavour,
auto-system relations, env-var names, CI/CD workflow detail).
- **Common-mistakes table** updated with rows for the new rules.
- **SKILL.md self-check** expanded so the wrapper enforces all of the
above before saving.
## Test plan
- [ ] Re-read doctrine end-to-end for internal consistency
- [ ] Verify the four canonical emoji + text pairs appear and no stray
emoji flags remain
- [ ] Confirm Required vs Conditional structure is internally consistent
(no section listed in both)
- [ ] Confirm functional-cross-ref rule appears in both Rules and
Formatting and is reflected in the SKILL.md self-check
- [ ] Confirm Views & navigation entry mandates the three-column table
and bans a Type column
- [ ] Confirm Common-mistakes table covers each new rule
