From a4cdfbefc742ebd298b8684c8eba92a162d9099c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: johndoe6345789 Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2026 02:15:05 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] refactor: Rewrite CONTRACT.md as formal Software Design Specification Convert from criminal code framing to binding legal specification format while maintaining rigorous quality standards. CHANGES: - Replaced 8 'CRIMES' with 8 'REQUIREMENTS' (same standards, professional language) - Added formal PREAMBLE and DEFINITIONS - Converted criminal statutes to verification protocols - Created compliance report with current status (7/8 requirements failed) - Added enforcement mechanism and post-recovery standards - Included probation period and binding authority sections - Added quick reference and execution commands in appendices PHILOSOPHY PRESERVED: - Non-negotiable quality requirements - Verification mandatory before acceptance - Remediation on failure (reject/revert) - All 8 core standards remain unchanged This is the binding design specification for MetaBuilder code quality.
