Low-token build flow (manual relay)¶

You copy-paste. ChatGPT builds. Claude checks. Nothing else.

YOU      paste the next order (below) into the ChatGPT app
CHATGPT  builds, writes WO-NN-REPORT.md, replies "DONE WO-NN"
YOU      tell Claude one line:  "DONE WO-NN"
CLAUDE   runs the check (one command), replies PASS or FAIL in a few lines
PASS →   go to the next order.   FAIL → paste Claude's fix note into ChatGPT, back to step 2

Token savers

Say only DONE WO-NN. Don’t paste ChatGPT’s report; Claude reads the file itself.
Claude replies with a short PASS/FAIL table, not a full review (the full review is Sunday).
One work order per round. Don’t start the next one until Claude says PASS.

The orders (paste one at a time)¶

Every order ends with the same rules, so they’re written once here and the orders refer to them:

RULES: Follow WORK-ORDERS.md “Start here” and the 8-step workflow. Branch from the previous PASS branch. Don’t edit other work orders’ files in e46/golden/. Don’t install, push or merge; ask me first. Any unclear rule, spec gap or limitation you discover: write it into DECISIONS-NEEDED.md (Open) and into your report, never only in chat. Stop after step 7 and reply only: DONE WO-NN, or BLOCKED WO-NN if DECISIONS-NEEDED.md has an open item from you.

#	Paste this	Branch from
1	`Build WO-04 (Bech32m codec) from WORK-ORDERS.md. RULES as in WORKFLOW-LOW-TOKEN.md.`	`wo-02-shake`
2	`Build WO-03 (Merkle and event roots) from WORK-ORDERS.md. RULES as in WORKFLOW-LOW-TOKEN.md.`	`wo-04-bech32m`
3	`Build WO-08 (Rad engine and prototype) from WORK-ORDERS.md. RULES as in WORKFLOW-LOW-TOKEN.md.`	`wo-03-…`
4	`Build WO-14 (Grover re-run on the built libraries) from WORK-ORDERS.md. RULES as in WORKFLOW-LOW-TOKEN.md.`	`wo-08-…`
5	`Build WO-05 (addresses and IDs) …`	previous
6	`Build WO-06 (header, PoW, ASERT) …`	previous
7	`Build WO-07 (emission, pools, E46i) …`	previous
8	`Build WO-11 (SLH-DSA keys)` — will need your OK to install liboqs	previous
9	`Build WO-12 (transactions) …`	previous
10	`Build WO-09 (Block QTL commitments) …`	previous
11	`Build WO-10 (genesis miner) …`	previous
12	`Build WO-13 (QTL v2 port) …`	previous

(Each … is the same ending: from WORK-ORDERS.md. RULES as in WORKFLOW-LOW-TOKEN.md.)

What Claude checks after each DONE (for reference)¶

DECISIONS-NEEDED.md + report      → read every Open item and every "decisions to review" / limitation line FIRST
git log + diff of the branch      → only that WO's files changed; no other golden file edited
cmake --preset release && build   → no warnings (warnings are errors)
ctest --preset release            → all tests pass
ctest --preset sanitize           → all tests pass under ASan/UBSan
surprise exam                     → fresh random inputs, unrecorded seed, C++ vs Python reference

Later: switching to Codex CLI¶

When you want zero copy-pasting, follow the Codex CLI steps Claude gave on 7 Oct 2026 (install with brew install --cask codex, sign in, test). Claude then sends the same orders itself with codex exec.
