-| `STREAM` | `--json` (JSONL events) |
-| `MODEL` | `-m <MODEL>` — `gpt-5.5` · `gpt-5.3-codex` · `gpt-5.4` · `gpt-5.3-codex-spark` · `gpt-5.4-mini` |
-| `EFFORT` | `--config model_reasoning_effort="<EFFORT>"` — `low` · `medium` · `high` · `xhigh` |
-| `AUTO` | `--dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox` (no sandbox + no approvals = full access **with network** so the CLI can run the gate; **WRITE** dispatch only, justified because the worktree is isolated). Edits without a network gate: `--sandbox workspace-write --full-auto`. |
-| `AUTO_READONLY` | `--sandbox read-only` (drop `--full-auto`). Never combine with `AUTO`. |
-| `NO_MCP` | `-c mcp_servers='{}'` → boots zero MCP servers, keeps auth and the rest of `config.toml`. Blunter alternative: `--ignore-user-config` (also drops model defaults — then `MODEL` + `EFFORT` are mandatory). |

-
-**Detailed report (recommended):** add `--output-schema <schema.json>` requiring a rich report
-(`summary`/`tasks`/`filesChanged`/`gate`/`fenceViolations`/`uncommitted`/`blockers`/`nextSteps`) — don't accept an
-opaque "ok". The `codex-prompt.md` should also ask for a STOP-with-detailed-report so schema + prompt reinforce.

-## Session resume (the heart)

+| `AUDIT` | `.dw/cli-run` — durable audit logs, session sidecars and last-message captures. Outside the worktree on purpose: authorized cleanup must not erase the evidence. Created by `init`, machine-local (gitignored). |
+| `STREAM` | `--json` |
+| `MODEL` | `-m "<MODEL>"` |
+| `EFFORT` | `-c 'model_reasoning_effort="<EFFORT>"'` |
+| `AUTO` | <PERMISSIONS> — approved non-interactive profile; retain existing configuration |
+| `AUTO_READONLY` | `--sandbox read-only` |
+| `NO_MCP` | Select only capabilities needed, if supported; preserve user configuration otherwise |
+| `RESUME <id>` | `codex exec resume "<SESSION_ID>" -m "<MODEL>" -c 'model_reasoning_effort="<EFFORT>"' <RESUME_PERMISSIONS> --json - < "<FOLLOWUP_PROMPT>" >> "<AUDIT>/<slug>.log" 2>&1` |
+| `SESSION_ID` | `thread.started.thread_id` → `<AUDIT>/<slug>.session` |

+| `USAGE` | `turn.completed.usage` |
+
+Create/reuse through `/dw-worktree create <slug>`; after authorized integration, `/dw-worktree merge <slug>` owns merge and safe cleanup. Workers return to the parent and never invoke integration themselves.
+
+## Model selection and resume
+
+Resolve concrete model/effort at task breakdown using `.dw/config/routing.json`, current provider metadata and the installed tool. Do not embed a fixed strongest-to-lightest model list in this adapter. Supported effort values depend on model/version; low, medium, high, xhigh and max are candidates only when supported. No mandatory escalation to the ceiling.
+
+Store task, provider, worktree, approved assignment, session ID and audit path before handoff. If the session sidecar is absent, recover the exact task session from its log; never blindly continue the latest cwd session. If identity cannot be proven, start a new session from saved state and the actual diff, preserving partial work. Provider sessions are not portable across CLIs.
+
+Return the `dw-cli-run` Structured Return with evidence and the exact supported resume command. The parent continues the approved plan; merge/push/publication require applicable authorization.
+
+Capability inspection: codex-cli 0.153.4.
+The current `exec resume` help lacks `--sandbox`; do not copy initial flags blindly or add bypass to compensate. Use an equivalent supported approved profile/config, otherwise block that resume mode and reconstruct a new restricted session. TOML `mcp_servers='{}'` alone is not proof inherited MCP entries were disabled.
+## Stops
+
+This command runs under `.dw/references/automode.md`: the approved task assignment authorizes the
+dispatch, and the stops below are the complete set. Each persists the worktree, audit log and session
+sidecar, reports the exact question with the supported resume command, and exits `BLOCKED`.
+
+1. The adapter table is missing — `dw-cli-run` returns `BLOCKED` without it.
+2. The approved permission profile cannot be resolved from the installed CLI's help output.
+3. A WRITE dispatch has no dedicated worktree.
+4. The worker's diff touches a protected path, or a suspected secret appears in it.
+5. Session identity cannot be proven on resume and partial work would be at risk.
+6. Integration, merge or push is reached — the worker never performs these and returns to the parent.
+7. A floor invariant would have to be crossed (`.dw/references/invariants.md`).
+
+Being unable to resolve a model is not a stop when an approved fallback exists. A completed turn is not
+proof of task success: completion needs the terminal event, the process outcome and inspected files.

-1. Count approximate tokens for `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `.dw/commands/*.md`, `.agents/skills/*/SKILL.md`, `.agents/agents/*.md`, `.claude/agents/*.md`, `.opencode/agent/*.md`, `.github/agents/*.agent.md`, `.dw/subtasks/pending/*/HANDOFF.md`, and `.claude/settings.json`.
-2. Estimate prose tokens as `words * 1.3`; estimate JSON/tool schemas as `chars / 4`.
-3. Flag:
-   - command files over 20KB,
-   - skill `SKILL.md` files over 12KB,
-   - agent files over 8KB,
-   - missing agent `output_budget_words` in `.dw/agent-registry.json` or scaffold registry,
-   - pending handoffs averaging over 1200 words,
-   - Copilot agents above 30k chars,
-   - more than 10 MCP servers,
-   - duplicate agent/skill names across platform folders,
-   - Claude/OpenCode agent files with provider-incompatible tool or permission fields.
-4. Recommend the top 5 savings with concrete paths.
+1. Separate three categories: permanent instructions for the active host; discovery metadata (skill/command names and descriptions); and on-demand command bodies, skill bodies, references and handoffs. Disk inventory is not simultaneous context consumption. Count only the active host's surfaces; platform copies alone are not duplicated live context.
+2. Label prose estimates (`words * 1.3`, schema `chars / 4`) as estimates, not measured tokens. Report each category separately and observed loads only when telemetry exists.
+3. Check project budgets: installed managed instruction block ≤6000 bytes per locale; skill entrypoints ≤8000 bytes; descriptions ≤250 characters. Commands over 20KB and agent files over 8KB are review signals, not evidence they were loaded. Review overlapping triggers, unconditional reference loads, broken links and incompatible provider metadata.
+4. In this repository `npm run validate` enforces entrypoint/description budgets and routed references through `lib/instruction-health.js`. In a consumer project inspect installed files; do not require the package source to exist there.
+5. Report the top concrete savings. Audit `.dw/config/routing.json` candidates against current provider information, noting stale choices without overwriting owner configuration.
 
 ## Part B — Runtime spend (actual token cost)

A runner return goes back to the parent for review, corrections and next tasks. Do not repeat `/dw-run`'s final full review when it already covers the unchanged implementation: validate its evidence and record the checkpoint as reused.
