Phase 2 Delta Guide (vs Phase 1 Baseline)
Executive Summary (For Leadership)
Phase 2 represents a substantial platform maturity jump from a baseline single-path agent into a production-oriented, evaluable, and auditable system.
Business Outcomes
- Higher delivery confidence through stronger validation and failure detection (evaluation v2 + consistency checks).
- Better explainability for stakeholders via expanded trace, reporting, and visualization surfaces.
- Improved demo and communication readiness through executive-focused output and narrative tooling.
- Stronger submission and release posture with clearer packaging, reproducibility, and operational checks.
What Changed at a High Level
- Architecture moved from a narrower baseline loop to a modular orchestration model with analyst-team capabilities.
- Measurement moved from limited metrics to a broader, hardened evaluation framework with auditability.
- Documentation shifted from sparse technical notes to a full knowledge base covering architecture, trace contracts, audits, and stabilization evidence.
Leadership Readout
- Scope increase: 89 files changed (73 added, 16 modified).
- Dominant investment area: core orchestration and evaluation stack under src/.
- Risk profile: reduced execution and reporting risk due to stronger verification and diagnostics; complexity risk increased due to larger system surface.
Decision Implications
- Team onboarding should prioritize architecture + evaluation docs before deep code dives.
- Future roadmap should favor reliability and operability guardrails before adding further capability breadth.
- Release governance should treat evaluation consistency and trace quality as ship gates.

Scope Definition
This document describes the delta as:
- Base: branch dev/first-run-baseline
- Target: branch ph2
- Diff source used: git diff --name-status dev/first-run-baseline...ph2
If you hand this to a teammate, they can treat this as the practical change log for everything introduced by ph2 over Phase 1 baseline.

Architectural Delta
Phase 2 introduces a major platform shift from a tighter baseline execution path to an expanded multi-module system with analyst-team logic, evaluation hardening, and executive/trace observability.
