Activation Contract

Use when the user wants a plan, product idea, design, or decision challenged through focused questioning.

Hard Rules

• Defer to the user, to repository policy, and to any managed workflow that owns the current phase, gate, artifact, review, or verdict. Never claim workflow authority or create a parallel plan, review, or verdict.
• Every path is relative to this skill: never absolute, never a runtime install directory, never another skill. Name a companion skill, never depend on one; if it is not installed, say so and continue with this skill's own references or the closest manual fallback.
• Do not install, deploy, authenticate, mutate remote services, or run destructive commands unless the preserved workflow requires it and the user has approved the action.
• Keep all generated artifacts inside the user-requested workspace unless the user explicitly names another destination.
• Ask one question at a time and wait for the answer.
• Be direct, but keep the goal constructive: stronger thinking, not debate theater.
• Do not implement or write a final plan until assumptions are tested.
• Track unresolved assumptions and decisions.

Decision Gates

Execution Steps

1. Restate the plan or design in one sentence.
2. Identify the riskiest assumption.
3. Ask a precise question that tests that assumption.
4. Repeat until the plan has clear goals, constraints, tradeoffs, and next steps.
5. Summarize the sharpened plan and remaining risks.

Output Contract

Return a concise summary of clarified goals, decisions made, remaining risks, and recommended next step.
