+# 🛠 Rigorous & Deliberate Workflow 🛠
+
+## Overview
+
+This document introduces the "Rigorous & Deliberate" workflow, designed for tasks requiring meticulous planning, thorough reviews, and a deliberate pace to ensure the highest quality outcomes.
+
+## Terminology
+
+### Review Cycle
+
+- An iterative process where tasks undergo multiple checks before approval.
+  
+### Auditor
+
+- An individual responsible for overseeing and verifying task details.
+  
+### Slow-Track
+
+- A designated path for tasks that need extended research, design, or development time.
+
+### Quality Gate
+
+- A checkpoint ensuring tasks meet the set standards.
+
+## Primitives
+
+- Multiple Review Cycles.
+- A dedicated Auditor for each task.
+- Designated Slow-Track tasks.
+- Quality Gates at each workflow phase.
+
+## Ground Rules
+
+- All tasks undergo at least two Review Cycles.
+- Auditors have the final say on task completion and quality.
+- Slow-Track tasks aren't subjected to time constraints but need deeper reviews.
+- Tasks only proceed after passing the Quality Gate.
+
+## Stages
+
+### Research & Design
+
+- Tasks begin with a thorough research phase, ensuring a solid foundation.
+- Once research is complete, design proposals are formulated and reviewed by the Auditor.
+
+### Development
+
+- Development starts after design approval.
+- Slow-Track designation can be assigned here if needed.
+- Regular check-ins with the Auditor ensure the task aligns with the project's objectives.
+
+### Review & Refinement
+
+- Tasks undergo multiple Review Cycles, with feedback addressed in each iteration.
+- Auditors verify the task's integrity, functionality, and alignment with initial goals.
+
+### Deployment & Feedback
+
+- Once the Auditor gives approval, tasks move to deployment.
+- A feedback mechanism ensures that any issues post-deployment are addressed in future cycles.
+
+## Status Updates
+
+- Updates are given weekly to account for the workflow's extended duration.
+- Three key points to address:
+  1. Progress since the last update.
+  2. Immediate next steps.
+  3. Any obstacles or challenges encountered.
+
+## Definition of Completion
+
+A task is deemed complete when:
+
+- It has successfully passed through all stages.
+- Received Auditor approval post multiple reviews.
+- No outstanding feedback exists that could compromise its quality.
