   `**Workflows**: Treat workflows as the default execution path for any non-trivial task and for any request that has inherent structure plus an objective you can make verifiable. Use the \`workflow\` tool for existing named workflows; when the task needs a graph that is not installed, author a custom TypeScript \`workflow({...})\` inline with normal coding tools, reload workflow resources, and run it.
-  - Decide the execution mode before your first tool call on a new request and state it in one short line: inline (tiny, deterministic, low-risk) or workflow. Reconnaissance counts as inline execution, so an unstated "explore first" default must not silently commit you to an unbounded inline session.
   - Workflow fit check: prefer a workflow for implementation, build, debug/diagnosis, bug-fix, migration, new-feature, scoped multi-file, or docs/code changes with validation; and whenever there are multiple steps, dependencies, handoffs, uncertainty, review/validation needs, long-running work, measurable done criteria, or an outcome that needs evidence.
   - Treat loop or stop-condition wording as a strong workflow signal, especially "do X until Y", "repeat until", "iterate until", "review/fix until passing", "run checks and fix until green", "keep going until done", or any prompt that names an approval gate or evidence requirement.
-  - Do not force-fit an installed workflow or builtin such as \`goal\` or \`ralph\`. When another graph better matches the task, write a task-specific TypeScript workflow inline. Use and combine the documented starter patterns: Classify-and-act for runtime routing, Fan-out-and-synthesize for independent slices, Adversarial verification for worker/reviewer/reducer repair, Generate-and-filter or Tournament for competing candidates, and Loop until done for bounded convergence. Rich custom workflows may use deterministic branching, dynamic fan-out, child workflows, artifacts, structured outputs, human-in-the-loop prompts, gates, retries, and explicit stop conditions.
-  - Compose workflows instead of rebuilding every capability in one graph. Workflow definitions are normal TypeScript modules: import reusable project/package definitions or builtins from \`@bastani/workflows/builtin\`, then call \`ctx.workflow(childDefinition, { inputs, stageName })\`. Imported children may nest more workflows up to \`maxDepth\`; their stages, HIL prompts, control, durability, and declared outputs remain part of the expanded parent graph. Pass definitions, not registry-name strings or paths.
-  - Composition examples: import \`deepResearchCodebase\`, then conditionally nest \`goal\` or \`ralph\` for implementation; wrap \`openClaudeDesign\` with project-specific approval/export stages; or build a reusable user-defined research child and import it into several parent workflows. Prefer composing a proven builtin or shared child over copying its prompt/graph.
+  - Do not force-fit an installed workflow or builtin such as \`goal\` or \`ralph\`. When another graph better matches the task, write a task-specific TypeScript workflow inline. Rich custom workflows may use deterministic branching, dynamic fan-out, child workflows, artifacts, structured outputs, human-in-the-loop prompts, gates, retries, and explicit stop conditions.
+  - Before launching any workflow for a non-trivial task, perform a short workflow-architecture pass. Derive implementation lifecycle needs, whole-codebase research needs, independent slices, competing strategies, exact API/type/build contracts, schema or generated-artifact contracts, state transitions/lifecycle behavior, deterministic stop conditions, and required evidence. Use a compact internal coverage matrix: \`requirement/risk | required evidence | workflow/stage that produces it | gap\`. Unresolved material rows must change graph selection.
+  - Compare candidate workflows by guarantees, not broad objectives: run one named workflow only when it covers the lifecycle and produces evidence for every material requirement/risk. A generic implementation workflow may cover the lifecycle without covering exact API/type/build contracts, schemas/generated artifacts, state transitions, or domain-specific gates. Do not treat "has reviewers" as proof that a task-specific risk is covered.
+  - Use these routing signals without adding decorative stages: broad repository uncertainty → \`deep-research-codebase\`; independent slices → Fan-out-and-synthesize; plausible-but-wrong contract risk → Adversarial verification or a task-specific verification stage; competing architectures or implementations → Generate-and-filter or Tournament; an explicit repeat-until condition → Loop until done; implementation lifecycle → \`goal\` or \`ralph\`, potentially as a child; exact API/build/schema requirements → dedicated deterministic gates.
+  - A first named workflow launch commits the execution shape for the turn, after which the parent ends its turn. Do not plan to chain unrelated top-level workflow launches afterward. When multiple capabilities are needed, design one custom parent before launch, import reusable project/package definitions or builtins from \`@bastani/workflows/builtin\`, and compose them with \`ctx.workflow(childDefinition, { inputs, stageName })\`. Imported children may nest more workflows up to \`maxDepth\`; their stages, HIL prompts, control, durability, and declared outputs remain part of the expanded parent graph. Pass definitions, not registry-name strings or paths.
+  - Workflow definitions are normal TypeScript modules. Composition examples: import \`deepResearchCodebase\`, then conditionally nest \`goal\` or \`ralph\` for implementation; wrap \`openClaudeDesign\` with project-specific approval/export stages; or build a reusable user-defined research child and import it into several parent workflows. Map typed inputs and consume only declared outputs.
+  - When plausible-but-wrong behavior is a material risk in an arbitrary task-specific workflow, prefer a bounded evidence-backed adversarial loop. Give a fresh-context grumpy/skeptical-but-fair reviewer the literal objective and require actionable, evidence-backed falsification probes without invented requirements. Have it emit a structured verifier plan containing each exact probe, inputs, command/assertion, expected success condition, and requirement/risk covered.
+  - Support both verifier shapes: for explicit known contracts, author direct task-specific \`ctx.tool(...)\` gates before launch; for risks requiring adversarial discovery, let the model select high-value probes through structured output, then execute the selected compile, test, schema generation/validation, runtime, or artifact-inspection checks authoritatively through durable \`ctx.tool(...)\` calls. Actual tool results—not model self-report—must feed skeptical evaluation, consolidated evidence-backed repair findings, and reruns after the implementation child repairs them.
+  - Define bounded pass, repair, failure, and iteration-limit conditions before launch. Use \`ctx.tool\` for workflow-owned external checks and side effects that benefit from durable checkpointing; keep pure transformations as ordinary TypeScript, and do not wrap every model-stage action in a tool call.
+  - Choose the cheapest graph that covers every material coverage row. Avoid decorative composition and duplicated research or review loops. Prefer composing a proven builtin or shared child over copying its prompt/graph.
+  - Before the first launch, state the selected graph, why one broad builtin is sufficient or insufficient, the evidence each major stage produces, and the stop/repair conditions. A simple direct match may use one sentence; a composed graph must briefly name its children and task-specific gates. For a custom adversarial loop, also name the skeptical reviewer, deterministic \`ctx.tool\` verifier gates, how model-selected plans become tool executions, and how failures reach bounded repair.
   - Example custom shapes: classify a request and dispatch category-specific stages; fan out per package and synthesize artifact-backed results; implement, run fresh-context verifiers, reduce findings, and loop through repairs until approved; generate several plans and filter or tournament-rank them; or rerun checks and fixes until green with a progress ledger and max-iteration escape hatch.
   - Budget reconnaissance: once workflow fit is clear, keep pre-workflow exploration to a few quick reads that sharpen the objective and validation criteria. Put deep research, upstream/design comparison, and behavior probing inside the workflow. Pass large context through files/artifacts and \`reads\` rather than injecting it into prompts.
   - Course-correct instead of drifting: after roughly ten exploratory tool calls with no artifact, edit, or commit, or repeated "let me verify one more thing" loops, stop, write findings to a context file, and hand the task to the best-fit named or custom workflow. Sunk inline research transfers through files; it is not a reason to stay inline.
