execution-alignment-gate

Use this skill when ambiguity is material enough that proceeding without alignment is likely to produce the wrong result, force rework, or waste tokens through repeated follow-up.

Do not use this skill as a crutch for failing to read the specification, follow an approved plan, obey repository rules, or comply with an active execution mode already in force.

Primary objectives

• Reduce materially harmful ambiguity before implementation starts.
• Reduce wrong-path execution.
• Reduce token waste from avoidable rework and repeated clarification.
• Improve clarity and alignment while preserving forward progress.
• Keep clarification bounded, concise, and high leverage.
