Lesson 077: Gate synthesis placeholder discipline
Focus
Treat placeholders as mandatory—rename qubit lines and budget shots immediately. Token Gate synthesis placeholder discipline:77 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.
Key ideas
- Thread: Gate synthesis placeholder discipline · drill v7 · spin
46944. - Habit: pair each job with shot budget, mitigation profile, and a calibration fingerprint you could paste.
- Guardrail: write one line about where classical cost dominated the timeline.
