Pivoting: deciding the next move

When it applies

A step just produced a result and you must choose the next action instead of blindly running the next tool. Applies after every meaningful step — this is what keeps an engagement adaptive.

Why it works

Value comes from routing on evidence: a result changes the probability and payoff of every other lead. Making the routing explicit (what the result unlocks, what it rules out) avoids both tunnel-vision and aimless scanning, and produces the decision + rationale entries the Attack Map is built from.
