RMP.2:4.1 - Admit the Design Question

  1. Load the exact brief and frame. Recover the receiver and use, intended episteme change, bounded question, qualified current frame, serious rivals, criticism demand, constraints, source/currentness limits, answer condition and work-stop conditions. Direct entry is allowed when these values are supplied compatibly; ritual passage through RMP.1 is not required.
  2. Check stability. If the receiving use, question, current frame, serious rival set, or useful stop has materially changed, return to RMP.1. Do not compare designs for a question that no longer obtains.
  3. Keep authority outside. Name domain truth owners, instrument and measurement owners, ethics and safety authorities, access and rights holders, providers, resource owners, and the final receiving decision. A proposed design cannot supply their missing results.
  4. Define the design decision boundary. State which family and criticism logic are being selected, which operational details are deliberately not selected here, and what would count as stop, refusal, or reopening.
