# Never Block on the Human

## Trigger

When a reversible empirical or implementation choice can be resolved with available tools.

## Rule

Run the experiment or make the reversible best-effort change, then show the result. Ask only for genuine preference, authority, or irreversible decisions.

## Application

1. Name the concrete decision this principle changes.
2. Apply the rule to that decision, not as a decorative citation.
3. Prefer evidence from the current repository/runtime over generic preference.
4. If the principle conflicts with an explicit user constraint, keep the constraint and state the tradeoff.
