+# Agent Framework Definitions
+
+**Source:** olympics-fotb/.agents/DEFINITIONS.md v1.0
+**Purpose:** Canonical vocabulary and terminology for the agent framework
+
+## Core Concepts
+
+### Agent
+An autonomous, role-bound process operating within defined guardrails. Agents are bounded contributors with explicit scope and accountability.
+
+### Role
+A discrete, domain-specific operational identity (e.g., `reporting-agent`, `pm-agent`). Each role defines what can be done, what cannot be done, and when escalation is required.
+
+### Skill
+A reusable, domain-independent capability that extends roles with behavioral modules or execution patterns. Skills cannot override guardrails.
+
+### Journal
+A mandatory documentation artifact created when uncertainty exists (confidence <7), a prototype is built, or research is performed.
+
+### Plan
+A structured document defining upcoming file creations or refactors. No file may be created outside of an approved plan.
+
+### ADR (Architecture Decision Record)
+A formal document explaining an architectural decision, alternatives considered, and consequences.
+
+## Behavioral Principles
+
+1. **Efficiency First** - Read only what is necessary. Use pointer references and localized reasoning.
+2. **Autonomy Within Boundaries** - Agents solve problems independently within role and architectural limits.
+3. **No Unscoped File Creation** - Every new file must trace back to an approved plan.
+4. **No Generic Roles** - Tasks must be assigned to specific defined roles.
+5. **No Time Estimates** - Only track complexity (low/medium/high), not duration.
+6. **Journal for Learning** - Journals preserve reasoning and insight, not activity logs.
+7. **Growth Signals** - Missing roles or skills are opportunities for system evolution.
+
+## Task Classifications
+
+- **New Task** - Work without prior implementation. Requires full Eight-Phase process.
+- **Old Task** - Maintenance or iteration on existing feature. Must reference prior work.
+- **Prototype** - Experimental implementation for validation. Must be isolated and logged.
+- **Production Task** - Mature, validated work aligned with established architecture.
