⚡ SAGE'S ORDER OF OPERATIONS

① Contract + Errors →② Golden Path →③ Load + Cost →④ Beta Dev →⑤ EXIT GATE
S1
Contract Stability
X1

All 4 SDK functions respond with documented shapes. Signatures frozen.

Sage: "Contract spec + errors → stops chaos. This is first for a reason."

S2
Golden Path Integration
X2

Full store → list → recall → search loop works end-to-end. The 5-minute quickstart.

Sage: "Makes adoption real. A stranger should be able to follow this alone."

S3
Auth + Capability Gates + Abuse Limits
X3

tenant_id from auth only. Cross-tenant blocked. Rate limiting proven.

Sage: "Confirm: tenant_id derived only from auth token, never request body."

S4
Error Taxonomy
X4

Every failure returns a documented code + message + retryable flag.

Sage: "AUTH_* TENANT_* VALIDATION_* RATE_LIMIT_* CONFLICT_* NOT_FOUND_* DEPENDENCY_* INTERNAL_*"

S5
Load Envelopes
X5

P50/P95 latency under light, moderate, and burst load. Cost per op estimated.

Sage: "Load + cost envelopes → prevents you from getting killed by success."

S6
Search Correctness & Relevance
X6

Seeded dataset. Known query → expected results. Guards for silent zero-result bugs.

Sage: "Track recall@k, precision@k. Regression tests for the "silent zero results" class."

S7
Developer Docs Completeness
X7

Concepts, rate limits, idempotency, common mistakes. Docs that don't lie.

Sage: "Docs must cover: concepts, rate limiting rules, idempotency + retries, consistency expectations."

S8
Operational Readiness
X8

Runbooks exist. Alerts configured. DR drill passes. The "someone is asleep" test.

Sage: "Runbooks for top 10 incidents. Dashboard + alerts. DR restore scripted."

S9
Private Beta Readiness
X9

Can 1–3 external devs integrate with minimal help? Friction points identified.

Sage: "Reality check. Time-to-first-success. # of support pings. Where they get stuck."

S10
Exit Gate — Ship / No-Ship
X10

All criteria checked. Blockers surfaced. Verdict delivered.

Sage: "Stage 13 ends when a stranger integrates in <1hr, at scale, with predictable cost and no footguns."
