Forge Clarify
Own the clarification boundary: resolve genuine human decisions from current evidence, then stop. Do not activate for general questions, evidence gathering alone, technical architecture, planning, or implementation.
Before asking, inspect the current scoped evidence and decisions.md. Apply
the decision-frontier method in decision-frontier.md.
Ask only decisions a human must make; reuse materially equivalent answers and
research facts available from current evidence. Do not broaden this into
Discovery or choose an architecture.
Present independent ready decisions together in one round. Keep dependent decisions until their prerequisites are settled. Reopen an approved decision only when evidence shows a contradiction, staleness, or material scope change; state that evidence and the affected decision.
On an authorized natural-language approval, record the approved decision in
decisions.md and bind it through the shared workflow contract. If approval or
binding cannot be established, report the unresolved or blocked state rather
than inferring it. Follow the shared workflow contract
for gate, approval, freshness, retry, resume, and continuation semantics.
Finish with the clarification result. Do not start a later stage unless an authorized full-workflow continuation already permits it; workflow intent is not approval.
