Resolve runtime paths before file or script operations.

Iron Law

When God Hands is selected, honor the phase gates. Do not skip Check.

God Hands is the public name of the gated knowledge-work pass: find, analyze, plan, decompose, benchmark, improve. The runtime state and MCP tools stay pdca_*. /scc:pdca is the slash-only compat name.

When to Use

• End-to-end knowledge work that must find sources, analyze them, plan, draft, check, and improve
• The user says "research and write", names a full pass, or asks for extra hands on the work
• A fork is already settled or does not apply (/scc:coach first when it does)

When Not to Use

• The user already named /scc:write, /scc:review, or another single skill
• The request is vague — ask one question; do not start a pass
• Named replay (/scc:workflow) or a parallel split (/scc:batch)

The pass

Gather  →  /scc:research + /scc:analyze
Draft   →  /scc:write --skip-research --skip-review
Check   →  /scc:review
Cut     →  Action Router → /scc:refine, or back to Gather/Draft

Load gate checklists from ../pdca/references/ at each transition. Do not skip gates. Direct skills remain available without wrapping.

/scc:write runs an internal review unless --skip-review. God Hands Draft must pass --skip-research --skip-review so Check owns quality.

Options

Same flags as the compat command /scc:pdca: --phase, --depth, --target, --max, --max-cycles, --no-questions.

State

.data/state/pdca-active.json. MCP: pdca_get_state, pdca_start_run, pdca_transition, pdca_check_gate, pdca_end_run.

See ../pdca/SKILL.md for phase schemas, stuck detection, and the Action Router. Do not dispatch Pokemon filenames. Call the chained skills above.
