SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? After triaging feedback, teams accumulate decision-shaped findings that need explicit resolution, but ad-hoc handling loses provenance and lets items slip through. This Skill walks the captain through each finding one at a time, forcing an explicit lock, defer, or grill choice and recording locked decisions with their original citations. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Per-finding three-path prompt: Restates each finding verbatim with its citation, then asks the captain to lock the answer now, defer for later, or invoke /grill-me to explore the decision tree. - Provenance-preserving capture: Locked decisions are written via /create-decision with the original rNN- citation appended verbatim, so every decision file traces back to its source finding. - Structured summary output: Emits a markdown table classifying every finding as locked, deferred, grilled-then-locked, or grilled-then-deferred, with artifact paths for locked items. - Use Case: After running triage-feedback on a review round, route the decision-shaped clusters to this Skill so the captain resolves each one interactively and ends with a complete audit trail of what was decided and what was postponed. ## Quick Start Take the decision-shaped findings from the latest triage-feedback run and walk me through locking, deferring, or grilling each one.

FAQPage Schema
How do I resolve decision-shaped findings from feedback triage?▼

Pass the ordered findings list to this Skill, which restates each claim verbatim with its citation and prompts you to lock, defer, or grill. Locked items are recorded via /create-decision with the original citation appended for provenance.

What input format does the lock-decisions workflow expect?▼

It expects an ordered findings list where each entry has a clusterId, topic, verbatim claim, and citation in rNN-{focus}.md:{location} form. Optional fields include surfacedBy and severity. An empty list is valid and produces an empty summary.

Can I defer a decision after grilling it?▼

Yes. After /grill-me returns, the Skill re-prompts the same three-path choice for that finding. Defer-after-grill is a first-class outcome recorded as grilled-then-deferred in the summary.

Does lock-decisions generate candidate resolutions automatically?▼

No. The Skill never generates candidate resolutions; surfacing alternatives is delegated to /grill-me. It only restates findings, collects the captain's choice, and records locked decisions with citations.

What happens when the findings list is empty?▼

The Skill exits cleanly with no prompts and emits a summary stating there are no decision-shaped findings to process. No files are written and no questions are asked.
