Messages 17276 and 17281 (2026-10-06): the norm is a three-round cycle. Round by round, the designer designs (or revises), separate critic agents review the design through their lenses (the critic agent type, .claude/agents/critic.md: read-only, with a browser; one per lens, such as first-time, native, words and parity), and the designer adjusts it to their findings; three rounds in all. The three rounds stand in for the user's approval of the design: the user does not approve it. After the third round the design is built on a branch of its own, which ends in a pull request that waits for the user's approval (rule 61). Replaces message 15725's prototype approval.
