 If the question is useful but not fun, it fails.
 
+## Daily Patch Discipline
+
+Daily pack updates must not become blind rewrites.
+
+Review the full pack first. Mark only the questions that fail. Fix only those marked IDs.
+
+Do not rewrite passing questions because the pack is being updated.
+
+Passing questions are frozen unless they later fail one of the daily rules.
+
+Normal content fixes should preserve metadata and change only the prompt and options.
+
+A mass rewrite is allowed only if more than 60 percent of a weekday or pack fails for the same root cause, and the review report explains why patching is worse.
+
+## Fun But Grounded
+
+Daily questions should be fun, but not random.
+
+Reject questions that become silly noise instead of a usable couple moment.
+
+Watch for overuse of:
+
+* snack drafts
+* fake awards
+* couch games
+* mascot jokes
+* random object choices
+* dramatic bits
+* cute phrases that do not match the prompt
+
+A daily pack should feel like a relationship game for adults.
+
+It should not feel like chore bingo, therapy homework, or a children's party game wearing a couples-app badge.
+
+## Option Answer Test
+
+Every option must cleanly answer the prompt.
+
+Read the prompt and then each option as a sentence fragment. If the option sounds grammatically or logically wrong, fix it.
+
+If one option fails, fix the option. If two or more fail, rewrite the whole answer set.
+
+Examples:
+
+Bad:
+
+```text
+Which tiny date move fits after dinner?
+Choosing the fun mug
+```
+
+Better:
+
+```text
+Which tiny date move fits after dinner?
+A two-song kitchen dance
+```
+
+Bad:
+
+```text
+What should we do for fun before phones win?
+A bedtime plan
+```
+
+Better:
+
+```text
+What should we do for fun before phones win?
+Trade dramatic compliments
+```
