SUMMARY:
Added inst_049 requiring AI to test user hypotheses first before pursuing
alternatives. Documented incident where ignoring user suggestion wasted
70k tokens and 4 hours. Published research case study analyzing governance ROI.
CHANGES:
- inst_049: Enforce testing user technical hypotheses first (inst_049)
- Research case study: Governance ROI analysis with empirical incident data
- Framework incident report: 12-attempt debugging failure documentation
RATIONALE:
User correctly identified 'Tailwind issue' early but AI pursued 12 failed
alternatives first. Framework failure: BoundaryEnforcer existed but wasn't
architecturally enforced. New rule prevents similar resource waste.
STATS:
- Total instructions: 49 (was 48)
- STRATEGIC quadrant: 8 (was 7)
- HIGH persistence: 45 (was 44)
