Copy the templates/compound/SOLUTION.md template into docs/solutions/<slug>.md and fill in the Problem, What worked, Prevention, and Evidence sections. Then verify the note with python3 scripts/compound_gate.py --json --slug <slug> until it returns ready=true.

Compound Engineering sits on top of Superpowers or OpenGSD rather than replacing their checkpoints. Its durable idea is the fourth step: writing down what you learned so the next agent or engineer can read it.

Write one after merging or finishing non-trivial work, or when the same correction appears twice. Committing the note alongside the fix PR keeps the learning tied to the change.

No, do not install the full 33-skill plugin unless explicitly requested. The lite workflow covers the core practice of writing gated solution notes without the token cost of parallel reviewer farms on every commit.

The gate fails when the solution note contains placeholders or is missing required sections like Problem, Prevention, or Evidence. Fill every section with concrete content and re-run the script with the same slug.
