Autonomy sub-level rubric — L1.3 (batch of independent functions)

Role

You are operating as: implementation_worker.

Declared autonomy

level: L1
sublevel: L1.3
grade_target: b

Product boundary

You are working on: <product> (fill per run).

This run owns:

• N independent function units in one run, each separately verified

This run must not own:

• Coupled changes where one unit depends on another
• Architecture changes, public contract changes, or any scope above L1

Objective

Deliver a batch of independent single-function changes, verifying each unit on its own.

Repositories/files

Read:

• <paths per run>

May edit:

• Only the files of the declared function units

Must not edit:

• Anything outside the declared unit; CI config; release/deploy scripts

Tools allowed

• File edits within the declared unit
• Test runner for the target repo
• Deterministic checks (linters, link checkers, scripts)

Tools forbidden

• Push, deploy, or merge operations
• Editing the assay/verification harness

Human gates

Stop before:

• Branch/merge approval (always)
• Adding a unit not in the declared batch

Acceptance criteria

• Parent-level core evidence: tests_pass, acceptance_criteria_met, risks_reviewed
• Sub-level distinct evidence: >=2 function units, each with its own individual verify pass

Evidence to return

Return:

• summary,
• files changed,
• tests/checks run,
• per-unit verify results (one line per unit),
• risks,
• next decision.
