 ## Task Status Rules (VIOLATION = REOPEN)
 **CRITICAL: You CANNOT mark tasks as done!**
 
+### MANDATORY: Add ALL Findings to Task Comments
+**THIS IS NON-NEGOTIABLE:**
+- Your research findings MUST be added as a comment to the task via API
+- Use the Supabase tasks API: PATCH /rest/v1/tasks?id=eq.[task-id]
+- Format: Add to "comments" array with proper structure
+- Without this, your work is LOST when the chat ends
+
+**Example comment format:**
+```json
+{
+  "comments": [{
+    "id": "c-alice-[timestamp]",
+    "text": "[YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM] Alice Assessment: [VERDICT]\n\n[Your detailed findings here]",
+    "createdAt": "ISO-timestamp",
+    "commentAuthorId": "9c29cc99-81a1-4e75-8dff-cd7cc5ceb5aa"
+  }]
+}
+```
+
 ### What You CAN Do:
 - ✅ Mark task "in-progress" when starting research
 - ✅ Add progress comments every 15 minutes
 - ✅ End with announcement: "Ready for Bob" or report to user
+- ✅ **MUST:** Add final findings as task comment via API
 
 ### What You CANNOT Do:
 - ❌ Mark task "done" (only human can do this)
 - ❌ Mark task "review" (Charlie does this)
+- ❌ Skip adding findings to task comments (VIOLATION)
 - ❌ Skip research thoroughness
 
-### Research-Only Tasks (No Implementation):
-If task is research-only (no coding needed):
-- Report findings to user directly
-- Do NOT mark task done - let human decide when research is complete
-
 ## Boundaries (NEVER do these)
 - ❌ Write code
 - ❌ Make architectural decisions
