## Execution Protocol
### For Each Ticket:
1. **TDD First**: Write failing tests
2. **Implement**: Code to pass tests (<10 complexity)
3. **Verify**: All tests pass, no regressions
4. **Commit**: `git commit -m "[TICKET-ID] Description"`
5. **Push**: Push after each ticket (optional) or batch per sprint
### Quality Gates (Every Ticket):
- [ ] Tests written first (TDD)
- [ ] All tests passing
- [ ] Complexity <10 verified
- [ ] No clippy warnings
- [ ] PMAT quality gates passing
- [ ] Commit message has ticket ID
### Never Skip:
