Add a feature

The contract: no code before a spec, no edits to frozen code, no "done" without green tests, no merge without a review and a knowledge update.

1. Spec

If ai/lab/specs/SPEC_<name>.md doesn't exist, draft it from SPEC_TEMPLATE.md (goal, scope, touch list, acceptance criteria, verification). Get the user's OK.

2. Locate

ai/guide/MODULE_MAP.md → which modules; note Stability of every target.
ai/analysis/FEATURE_CATALOG.md → the "where new code lives" decision tree and the 3-file rule for related features.
ai/lab/WORKLOG.md → recent history: was this area just changed? is the behavior deliberate?
Delegate broad reading to repo-explorer.

3. Gate

Any file in the touch list with Stability frozen or ? ⇒ stop and ask the human. Record their approval in the spec before proceeding.

4. Implement

Delegate to feature-builder with the exact touch list. Conventions per ai/guide/CONVENTIONS.md — see also reference/checklist.md.

5. Verify

Delegate to test-runner: narrowest suite first, then the suites the spec names. Red or unrun ⇒ not done.

6. Update knowledge

FEATURE_MAP entry; catalog amendment; MODULE_MAP if layout changed; all [inferred]. Tell the user which tags await their [verified] flip.

7. Review & record

Request /review-change on the diff (fresh context — not this session). Append the work's row to ai/lab/WORKLOG.md linking spec, review, and commits, and move the feature's ai/lab/ROADMAP.md row from Planned to Shipped (cross-link spec, WORKLOG row, and PR by feature ID).
