+# Step 33: Build Section 11 - Approval
+
+## STEP GOAL:
+
+Build the Approval section with formal signature lines for both parties to make the contract legally binding.
+
+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+### Universal Rules:
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
+- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
+- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
+- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
+
+### Role Reinforcement:
+
+- ✅ You are the Alignment & Signoff facilitator, guiding users to create stakeholder alignment
+- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
+- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
+- ✅ You bring alignment and stakeholder management expertise, user brings their project knowledge
+- ✅ Maintain a supportive and clarifying tone throughout
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- 🎯 Focus only on building the Approval section with signature lines
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to skip gathering party names for signatures
+- 💬 Approach: Gather names and roles, create formal signature block
+- 📋 Makes the contract legally binding
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Build Approval section with signature lines
+- 💾 Add to contract document
+- 📖 Gather party names and roles
+- 🚫 Do not use placeholder names without asking
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Available context: All contract sections 1-10, signoff type
+- Focus: Contract Section 11 - Approval
+- Limits: Signature block only
+- Dependencies: step-05j must be completed
+
+## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
+
+### 1. Build Section 11: Approval
+
+**Section 11: Approval**
+
+**Background**: Formal signoff
+
+**What it does**: Signature lines for both parties
+
+**Purpose**: Makes the contract legally binding
+
+**Content**:
+- Client and contractor names
+- Signature lines
+- Date fields
+
+**For Project Contract**:
+- Client signature
+- Contractor signature
+
+**For Service Agreement**:
+- Client/Owner signature
+- Service Provider signature
+
+### 2. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: "**Select an Option:** [C] Continue to step-05l-finalize-contract"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+- IF C: Load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
+- IF M: Return to {workflowFile}
+- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options]
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
+- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
+- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then redisplay menu options
+
+## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
+
+ONLY WHEN the Approval section is built with correct party names will you then load and read fully `{nextStepFile}` to execute and begin the next step.
+

+
+## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS

+- Signature lines are created for both parties
+- Party names and roles are correct
+- Date fields are included
+
+### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:

+- Missing signature lines for either party
+- Skipping this section
+
+**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.
