Each phase MUST invoke corresponding skill after user confirmation:

1. Style → confirmed → invoke /spencergo:writing-outline
2. Outline → confirmed → invoke /spencergo:writing-content
3. Content → confirmed → invoke /spencergo:writing-review
4. Review → confirmed → invoke /spencergo:writing-polish
5. Polish → delivery

### Key Rules

- DO NOT skip any phase (unless user explicitly requests quick mode)
- MUST get user confirmation before moving to next phase
- DO NOT invoke review during content writing - wait for user to confirm draft
- DO NOT auto-polish after review - wait for user to confirm review results

---

The terminal state is delivery. DO NOT skip any phase. The ONLY flow is: style → outline → content → review → polish → delivery.

<CRITICAL>
When user says "continue", "next", "start", etc., you MUST:

1. Tell user which phase you're entering
2. Use Skill tool to invoke the corresponding sub-skill
3. Example: user says "continue with outline" → you MUST invoke /spencergo:writing-outline via Skill tool
</CRITICAL>
