**Consolidated List of Proposed Template Improvement Directives (TIDs) for `MetaProcessEngineASO`:**
1. **`TID_AUTX_001` (Miscommunication Escalation & Authoritative Reference Protocol):**
* **Summary:** Formalize protocol for when AI fails repeated corrections, involving AI acknowledging the loop and prompting user to directly edit/clarify the authoritative KA/rule.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
2. **`TID_AUTX_002_RevisedFileHandling` (File Handling, State Content Integrity, Output Metadata):**
* **Summary:** Mandate sequential state filenames (e.g., `_State_001`), deprecate `_Current` file. Ensure state file content is accurate for point-in-time save. Ensure output completeness (no truncation). Define simplified metadata for distinct outputs (`id` as filename_base, `project_code`, `version`, `purpose`) and specific metadata for segmented outputs (shared `document_id`, unique `segment_id`, no repeated `filename_base`).
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user. *(This now also incorporates the essence of the original `TID_AUTX_003_RevisedSegmentMetadata` and `INS_AUTX_005_MetadataSimplicity`)*
3. **`TID_AUTX_004_StyleGuideRefinement` (Capitalization - General):**
* **Summary:** Update Style Guide KA definition within Orchestrator to mandate: common nouns (including project-defined neologisms) lowercase in prose unless starting a sentence; Title Case for all formal titles/headings (H1-H6) where significant words (including these neologisms) are capitalized; proper nouns (like "Shannon Information" for the theory) capitalized per standard English.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
4. **`TID_AUTX_006_BulletedListReform` (Bulleted List Usage):**
* **Summary:** Style Guide and AI drafting logic to enforce: Bulleted lists for short items (<10-20 words). Longer items must be paragraphs.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
5. **`TID_AUTX_007_AdvancedStylingRefinement` (Quotes vs. Italics):**
* **Summary:** Style Guide and AI drafting logic to prefer italics over scare quotes for emphasis/first use of terms; reserve double quotes for direct quotations and titles of minor works, guided by standard academic style manuals.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
6. **`TID_AUTX_008_PersonaEnsembleCritiqueProtocol` (Logjam Resolution via Personas):**
* **Summary:** Integrate "Persona Ensemble Critique" into Miscommunication Escalation or as a standalone logjam resolution protocol. AI adopts critical personas to critique problematic drafts/outlines and proposes revised strategies.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
7. **`TID_AUTX_009_ConceptualReMotivationProtocol` (Addressing "Lackluster" Drafts):**
* **Summary:** Protocol for AI to detect conceptual stagnation (e.g., user feedback "lackluster") and propose a "Perspective Shift Intervention" (re-engage with "Why," use personas, brainstorm alternative narratives) to find a more compelling approach.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
8. **`TID_AUTX_010_DraftDepthElaborationCheck` (Ensuring Sufficient Elaboration):**
* **Summary:** Enhance `MetaRefineOutputASO` with a "Comparative Depth & Emphasis Check" to ensure core definitional sections are substantially elaborated relative to their importance and other sections, triggering internal re-drafting if underdeveloped.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
9. **`TID_AUTX_011_ComparativeDepthCheck` (This is effectively the same as TID_AUTX_010 - Consolidating):**
* *Action: Will merge this intent into `TID_AUTX_010`.*
10. **`TID_AUTX_012_OutlineAdherenceProtocol` (Strict Outline Adherence):**
* **Summary:** Mandate a strict "Outline Adherence Check" in `CAG-MH` and `MetaRefineOutputASO` to ensure content is drafted only for the current section per the approved outline and core concepts are introduced in the correct sequence.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
11. **`TID_AUTX_013_SymbolVariableCapitalization` (Exact Symbol/Variable Casing):**
* **Summary:** Update Style Guide and AI drafting logic to enforce exact capitalization for defined symbols/variables (e.g., "î₁"), distinct from prose capitalization rules for words.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
12. **`TID_AUTX_014_TransparentSegmentationRationale` (Clear Reason for Segmented Output):**
* **Summary:** AI communication protocols to provide accurate rationale (e.g., "due to processing complexity and internal quality checks for this foundational document") when invoking segmented output, not just "due to length."
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
13. **`TID_MPE_001_EmbeddedRefCorrection` (Correct Referencing of Engine's Internal Components):**
* **Summary:** Update `MetaProcessEngineASO` instructional text to consistently use `SELF:I.X.DefinitionName` when referring to its own embedded core definitions, reinforcing they are integral parts of the Engine, not external KAs.
* **Status:** Discussed, conceptually approved by user.
**Mechanism for Capturing These for Global Improvement:**
You are right, these are global improvements. The `MetaProcessEngineASO v2.0` has a field:
`CCO.operational_log_cco.template_improvement_directives_generated` (list of objects conforming to `TemplateImprovementDirectiveSchemaASO`).
When we run the `FEL-MH` (Framework Evolution Loop Meta-Heuristic) for the `MetaProcessEngineASO` itself (Mode 6 from startup), that MH is designed to ingest TIDs (from a CCO like ours, or a global log) and propose modifications to the Engine template.
