+# Phase 2 — Validation Strategy
+
+> Per-phase validation contract for feedback sampling during execution.
+

+
+## Test Infrastructure
+
+| Property | Value |
+|----------|-------|
+| **Framework** | go test (stdlib) |
+| **Config file** | go.mod (already exists) |
+| **Quick run command** | `go test ./...` |
+| **Full suite command** | `go test -v -race ./...` |
+| **Estimated runtime** | ~5 seconds |
+
+---
+
+## Sampling Rate
+
+- **After every task commit:** Run `go test ./...`
+- **After every plan wave:** Run `go test -v -race ./...`
+- **Before `/gsd:verify-work`:** Full suite must be green
+- **Max feedback latency:** 5 seconds
+
+---
+
+## Per-Task Verification Map
+
+| Task ID | Plan | Wave | Requirement | Test Type | Automated Command | File Exists | Status |
+|---------|------|------|-------------|-----------|-------------------|-------------|--------|
+| 02-01-01 | 01 | 1 | DISC-04, STATE-04 | unit | `go test -run TestRegistry ./...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
+| 02-01-02 | 01 | 1 | I3-01 | unit | `go test -run TestResolveWorkspace ./...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
+| 02-02-01 | 02 | 2 | I3-02 | unit | `go test -run TestSwitch ./...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
+| 02-02-02 | 02 | 2 | DISC-04 | unit | `go test -run TestLabel ./...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
+
+*Status: ⬜ pending · ✅ green · ❌ red · ⚠️ flaky*
+
+---
+
+## Wave 0 Requirements
+
+- [ ] `go get go.i3wm.org/i3/v4` — add i3 IPC dependency
+- [ ] Test stubs for daemon registry, workspace resolution, client/server
+
+*If none: "Existing infrastructure covers all phase requirements."*
+
+---
+
+## Manual-Only Verifications
+
+| Behavior | Requirement | Why Manual | Test Instructions |
+|----------|-------------|------------|-------------------|
+| `vmux switch auth` navigates to correct workspace | I3-02 | Requires real i3 WM | Run with 2+ Claude sessions in different workspaces, verify switch works |
+| vmuxd autostart on `vmux list` | - | Requires daemon lifecycle | Run `vmux list`, verify vmuxd process appears in `ps` |
+| Workspace column in `vmux list` | I3-01 | Requires real i3 | Verify workspace names appear correctly |
+
+---
+
+## Validation Sign-Off
+
+- [ ] All tasks have `<automated>` verify or Wave 0 dependencies
+- [ ] Sampling continuity: no 3 consecutive tasks without automated verify
+- [ ] Wave 0 covers all MISSING references
+- [ ] No watch-mode flags
+- [ ] Feedback latency < 5s
+- [ ] `nyquist_compliant: true` set in frontmatter
+
+**Approval:** pending
