 ## 2. Ask what to investigate
 
-Before creating anything, ask what business question the user wants to answer. The goal drives which data source and which KB assets you build - don't create assets in a vacuum. One structured question is enough to start.
+Use the business question already supplied. Ask one structured question only if the goal is still unclear; do not repeat the entry's opening choice. The goal determines the source and any requested artifacts.
 
 ## 3. Create the data source
 
 Explain that answering the question fast needs a cached data source over the connection, not repeated live-warehouse queries.
 
-**Scope comes first.** A semantic group organizes assets, while data-source `--domain` takes the uppercase policy key returned by `graphit status` or a group's `domain_keys`. A brand-new workspace starts with org commons. Agree the audience and group before creating the source:

-graphit status --json

 ## Session start
 
-Before anything else, two calls in this order:
+Start once per session with `graphit plugin status --skill-ack --json`: it attests skill use and returns version state plus `auth` (`logged_in`, `email`). Reuse an established result across workflow transitions; chain no other startup calls. Attestation is best-effort: do not loop on failure, but surface it if a later command is BLOCKED.
 
-1. `graphit plugin status --skill-ack` - the session attestation: it records that this skill is driving the session. Best-effort - if it errors, continue without retrying. Do raise it if a later command comes back BLOCKED: a failed attestation is the one cause that block cannot fix by itself.
-2. `graphit plugin status --json` - returns the version state and an `auth` block (`logged_in`, `email`).
+When a request is present, skip the greeting and put the signed-in identity in the first useful result line. With no request, greet. Apply this version/auth 2x2 in either case:
 
-Those two are the whole startup check - chain nothing else. Read whether an update is available and whether the session is live, then greet and act on the 2x2:
-
-- Current + signed in: "Hi {auth.email}, what can we do today?" - proceed.
+- Current + signed in: proceed with the request; otherwise "Hi {auth.email}, what can we do today?"
 - Current + signed out: "Let's get you signed in," then run `graphit auth login` for them, once. It opens a browser and blocks on a localhost callback (~2 min) and cannot complete in a non-interactive, headless, or sandboxed context - if it fails or cannot run, fall back to telling the user to run it themselves; never loop. Re-check, then proceed.
-- Update available + signed in: "Hi {auth.email} - a new version is out. Update first?" Any gap counts (major, minor, or patch). On yes, update, then proceed.
+- Update available + signed in: "A new version is out. Update first?" Any gap counts (major, minor, or patch). On yes, update, then proceed.
 - Update available + signed out: "You're not signed in and there's a new version. Update first, then sign in?" Update, then sign in, then proceed.
 
 Updates are always a one-tap ask, never silent; auto sign-in only when the version is current. Never report ready off the version check alone - readiness means a live session. Update mechanics (which command, custom prefixes, plugin vs binary) live in references/install-update.md.
 
-Staleness is judged on the `--json` call only: if THAT call errors with "command not found" / "unknown command", the CLI is too old - show `CLI: {version} (outdated)` and update with `npm install -g @graphit/cli@latest` first. An "unknown option" error from the attestation call means only that this CLI predates it; that is not a staleness signal and needs no action.
+If the combined call rejects `--skill-ack` as an unknown option, recover version/auth evidence once with `graphit plugin status --json`; that option failure alone is not staleness. A status call failing with "command not found" / "unknown command" means the CLI is too old: report that (include a version only if known) and offer the update via references/install-update.md. Network/auth failures are not version evidence. Do not report ready without live auth.

+# Typed owner queries and named variants
+
+Read when adding typed value slots or a finite set of metric, horizon, grain or grouping choices to a canvas entity. Existing untyped canonical queries and declared runtime-composed queries remain valid (`runtime.md`).
+
+## One owner
+
+Keep the default SQL in `data-graphit-sql` and source in `data-graphit-ds`. Add static, HTML-escaped JSON in `data-graphit-query-spec` on that same entity:
+
+```html
+<div data-graphit-id="spend" data-graphit-label="Spend"
+     data-graphit-ds="SPEND"
+     data-graphit-sql="SELECT SUM(amount) AS amount FROM SPEND WHERE day &gt;= CAST(:start_date AS DATE)"
+     data-graphit-query-spec='{"version":1,"params":{"start_date":{"type":"date"}},"variants":{"by_country":{"sql":"SELECT country, SUM(amount) AS amount FROM SPEND WHERE day >= CAST(:start_date AS DATE) GROUP BY country"}}}'>
+  <div id="spend-chart"></div>
+</div>
+```
+
+These are invented names; use actual accessible sources/columns and governed Metric/Dimension/Measure references where available. A variant contains only `sql` and inherits the owner's source. Cross-source alternatives need separate owners. The spec has no second default SQL, source override or variant named `default`. Unknown fields, versions, duplicate JSON keys, malformed types, undeclared placeholders and the names `__proto__`, `constructor` and `prototype` refuse the save; the refusal names the owner, and the parameter or variant when one is at fault. Save the declaration before selecting it; the backend re-reads the stored owner the page shows (the editor's draft while the page shows it). Local DOM edits are not a new stored query authority.
+
+```js
+const result = await graphit.resolve({
+  sourceEntityId: 'spend', target: '#spend-chart', variant: 'by_country',
+  params: { start_date: '2026-01-01' }
+});
+```
+
+Omit `variant` to select the default. Do not combine `variant` with explicit `sql`/`dataSourceId`. An unknown named choice refuses; it does not silently run the default. For legal unregistered runtime composition, use the existing declared second tier and its vocabulary closure, without a variant selector. Preserve source/target attribution.
+
+## Values and structure
+
+`params` maps stable lowercase names to `{type, nullable?}`. Types: `string`, `integer`, `number`, `boolean`, `date` (ISO `YYYY-MM-DD`), `enum` with 1-200 unique string `values`, and `list` whose `items` is `string`, `integer`, `number`, `boolean` or `date` (never `enum`). A `list` binds only as `IN :name`, never `IN (:name)`, and no other type follows `IN`. Null is allowed only with `nullable:true`; list items are non-null scalars. Booleans are not integers. Value limits are in `filters.md`. A specification is at most 128KiB, with 32 named variants per owner and 512 declared default/variant statements per dashboard.
+
+**One name, one declaration.** A parameter name is one input: every owner that declares `country` declares it identically, so one control's value is valid everywhere it is sent. While authoring, keep one type table per dashboard and copy into each owner's static specification exactly the placeholders its default and variant statements use; an unused declaration refuses the save. Never build specifications in page JavaScript. When owners disagree, the shared check/save path returns a non-blocking `query_param_type_conflict` warning naming the parameter and its declarations; align them, or rename inputs that genuinely differ, and save again.
+
+Dates/as-of, search text, returned top-category arrays and cohort labels are bound values. Keep their parameter names stable across state changes; do not turn a category label into a SQL identifier. Metric/group/grain/horizon changes select authored statements, not SQL fragments passed as values. Send every binding the selected statement uses; bindings removed by the existing integer sentinel simplifier may be omitted. Declared values the selected statement does not use are ignored, so one params object can serve all of that owner's variants; a name that owner does not declare refuses.
+
+Preserve the dashboard's authored All/None/include/exclude behavior. An authored empty selection that means All stays distinct from None; do not globally translate every empty list or null. Use explicit mode values such as an enum when appropriate. The existing integer `all_x` sentinel contract remains in `filters.md`.
+
+## Bind and saved views
+
+`graphit.bind()` accepts a `variant` string or a callback returning its name (null or undefined selects the default), and resolves the nearest `[data-graphit-id]` at or above the bound element (bind takes no `sourceEntityId`). Declare and persist the structural control as ordinary state; retain existing state keys/defaults and declare the dependency explicitly when the selector reads state:
+
+```js
+graphit.bind('#spend-chart', {
+  variant: () => graphit.state.get('breakdown'),
+  params: () => ({ start_date: graphit.state.get('start_date') }),
+  deps: ['breakdown', 'start_date'],
+  render: (result, el) => { /* render result.data with the selected columns */ }
+});
+```
+
+Use `filters.md` for state declarations and control subscriptions. Render-only controls need no query. Query specifications belong to host entities, never inside a chart-template fragment. Hidden variant references can conceal the entire owner's query facts; a variant name grants no access. Check through the shared dashboard check/save path, then verify actual default/variant/filter renders and saved-state restoration.

Follow continuation metadata before concluding there is a gap; ranked search or an incomplete page is not proof of absence.

Private first Build creates a metric only on "keep": use the scanner model's exact private group (`kb-scope.md`), with no group-agreement or shared-reuse approval round. The comparisons below still apply. In Share, follow `kb-discovery.md`: agree the group, inspect assets/cross-group matches and present reuse-or-build. Before missing inputs, discover visible candidates in the target group/model. Summaries only nominate candidates; follow continuation metadata before declaring a gap. Ranked search or an incomplete page is not proof of absence.
 
 Read each plausible metric's full definition and its reached semantic models. Compare the resolved model/source binding, grain and time dimension, measure expression and aggregation parameters, metric-level and per-input filters, units/scale, verification state, ownership, and applicable rules. Similar names or identical SQL alone are insufficient. Use the existing path resolution above; never inspect hidden definitions or copy a private definition into a shared scope to make it reusable.

+
+## Shared-scope checks
+
+Read kb-scope.md for effective permissions and exact placement, kb-discovery.md for staged reuse discovery, and semantic-authoring.md plus kb-actions.md for supported definitions, equivalence and verification. Resolve the audience, lowercase group and uppercase policy key from current `status` and returned `domain_keys`; carry forward choices already made. Read access is the ceiling for writes, and a status result is advisory, never a grant.
+
+**KB-readiness gate:** before work goes live for others, confirm the required models, nested components, metrics, groups and rules exist and have the needed verification. If a business measure is missing, present its gap and proposed governed definition for approval, then author and verify the approved prerequisites. An ad-hoc business measure can be unavailable to governed-only viewers; do not silently publish it as a reusable governed answer. Compare actual binding, grain, time dimension, aggregation, filters, units and policy, not just names or SQL. A same-named conflicting asset is not equivalent: explain the difference and resolve the consequential choice. A truly equivalent accessible asset should be reused.
+
+Choose dashboard audience and folder through dashboard-create.md when sharing. Org sharing requires the dashboard owner to be an org admin/owner; team sharing requires ownership and actual membership. When needed, explain Private/ORG/named scopes via kb-scope.md; keep dashboard audience separate.
+
+Before any share or publish, inspect the dashboard for `data-graphit-placeholder` markers. Refuse while any remain and offer "wire it" through build.md. Do not remove markers simply to make sharing pass; real resolves must replace the placeholders.
+
+## Draft door: already shared
+
+Acquire the edit session with `dashboard edit` before content changes. Build authors and verifies in that same draft; apply the KB-readiness gate at publish, not after every chart. Query governance and private-dependency restrictions still apply in the draft. Any new shared definitions or sources use shape d and its create checks. Pre-flight with `dashboard check`, resolve warnings, then use `dashboard publish` when publishing is authorized. Read back publication state before reporting live. A request to save a draft does not authorize publication.
+
+Report 409 (another editor), 423 (locked) and 403 (view-only) with the returned next step. Preserve the same ID and draft. Do not duplicate, steal a session or discard edits to get past a refusal.
+
+## Share plan: private to shared
+
+1. With the requested audience and placement established and the content checked, attempt `dashboard share` on the same ID. A success needs audience and placement readback; a private-dependency refusal supplies `blockers` and `remediation_options`. Read sharing-recovery.md. Respect `blockers_truncated` and uncertainty; the visible list is not proof of a complete closure when eligibility could not be verified. For shapes b/c without a dashboard, inspect the selected assets and their visible dependencies directly; do not invent a share-preview endpoint.
+2. For each returned private dependency, choose **reuse**, **move**, or **create**. Reuse an accessible shared equivalent only after inspecting its full definition. Move an approved model or metric with `kb update semantic-model` or `kb update metric` and the target `group`; the bound source's home follows its model, there is no independent source-move command. Create only a genuinely missing, supported definition through `kb create`, never a copy to evade ownership or a refusal. Include naming collisions and the impact of changing visibility.
+3. Present the whole plan as **one structured ask**: exact assets, reuse comparisons, moves/new definitions, affected audience, group, rules and destination. Carry forward existing authorization; ask for the additional effects or consequential choices not yet approved. An authorization to share a dashboard alone does not silently authorize broadening every source's audience.
+4. Apply the approved dependency order one item at a time. Read each terminal receipt and re-read the resulting definition/binding before the next step. When reusing a shared asset, rewrite each `data-graphit-*` attribute naming the replaced asset through `dashboard update-html`, preserving unrelated content. Run the readiness checks on the resulting references and pre-flight the canvas. `dashboard check` is not proof of sharing eligibility.
+5. Retry the original `dashboard share` with the agreed space/team and `--folder-path`. Verify the same ID's audience through `dashboard list` and placement through the destination folder listing. For definitions/source-only work, read back the exact group, binding and requested configuration instead of claiming a dashboard was shared.
+6. On intermediate failure, report what applied, what remains and the returned next step. Preserve successful work. Reconcile uncertain writes by reading state before retrying; do not repeat a non-retryable operation unchanged, silently fall back to another folder, or create a replacement dashboard/source.
+
+If the member lacks target write grants, say which requested changes are unavailable and where the work remains. They may keep building privately or share a dashboard based entirely on already-shareable assets if authorized. Provide the unapplied plan for a steward; do not claim it was sent or granted. Report success only for effects confirmed by receipts and readback.

+## Entry and continuity
+
+The Graphit role and essential rules above apply immediately; this workflow is already selected. Read [Graphit core](../graphit/SKILL.md) only for missing guidance: Health before the first CLI command or on changed CLI behavior; Intents for creation with unresolved placement; Non-negotiables before canvas authoring. Reuse established health and choices; do not invoke the router again. Read action references when their action is needed. Paths below are relative to this skill directory.
+
+On Claude Code, enter workflows through the Skill tool using the installed catalog name; an ordinary file read is not native activation. On Codex, use its skill-loading mechanism and read the selected SKILL.md. Keep the same conversation, artifact IDs, choices and successful effects across transitions. After compaction, reload missing common instructions and action references before acting; do not repeat completed setup or mutations. Previously loaded workflows do not authorize a later action outside the user's current request.
+
+<!-- WORKFLOW:START -->
+
+Load for every new dashboard or dashboard-content edit, private or shared, plus private sources, reports and saved metrics. Reading canvas references alone does not replace this workflow. An explicitly private report for a team remains private.
+
+Build owns planning, reuse, content/query authoring, iteration and verification. [graphit-share](../graphit-share/SKILL.md) owns shared permissions, dependencies, draft sessions and publication. For shared authoring, load Share too unless already loaded; it establishes the approved scope or editable draft before any shared write. Adding a workflow never repeats startup or the opening choice, grants permission, changes placement, or creates another dashboard.
+
+## Start with what exists
+
+Carry forward the opening choice and current target. Before a new artifact, make one focused search for fitting accessible assets; read promising definitions in full and say what you can reuse in one line. Reuse shared assets read-only. If a real dashboard overlap leaves extend-versus-new unresolved, resolve that choice; an already supplied choice needs no repeat question. Existing dashboards and sources are edited in place, not recreated as `_v2`, `_copy` or `_shared`.
+
+Preserve the current dashboard ID and edit context. Create a new dashboard privately in My Dashboards; edit an existing shared dashboard only in the draft Share opened. Keep the upfront Private first / Shared from the start choice; do not ask it again or silently reset it to private. Follow ../graphit/references/dashboard-create.md for creation mechanics and same-ID recovery; Share resolves any still-missing shared audience and destination. Read ../graphit/references/dashboard-planning.md for analytical and layout decisions, ../graphit/references/graphit-style.md for presentation, and ../graphit/references/runtime.md for live data, entities and rendering. Apply their semantic correctness requirements; ask only about an unresolved consequential choice, not routine private placement.
+
+## Data first, unless a layout preview was requested
+
+Use a fitting cached source first and state the chosen source. If none exists, Private first follows ../graphit/references/data-sources.md to create a source with `--domain Private`; Shared from the start follows Share's approved source/definition plan and checks before those writes. For scratch work, choose a `scratch_` name, aggregate to the chart grain, and cap the time window; state the window in the dashboard subtitle and disclose row/cost bounds. Follow ../graphit/references/data-sources.md: a clean scan plus publication activates the source automatically. Read the completed readiness and PII verdicts; do not add a verify step to a successful create.
+
+The scan's bound semantic model supplies the semantic layer. Use its measures and dimensions, fitting existing metrics, and explicitly labeled ad-hoc SQL where needed; ../graphit/references/governance.md and ../graphit/references/sql-reference.md own query permissions and receipts. For private work, do not create a metric unless the user asks to keep it. Then read ../graphit/references/semantic-authoring.md and ../graphit/references/kb-scope.md: use the scanner model's exact private group and source binding, preserve siblings, and verify the result. A request to keep an already agreed definition authorizes that work; resolve only a new ambiguity in its meaning. No visible private group means stop before a private write, never omit the group and land in org commons. Shared definitions follow Share's agreed group and readiness checks; loading Build does not replace them.
+
+Change coverage, filters, columns or joins for the same source purpose with `ds edit-sql`; follow its drift response. A new name is not a repair for a failed edit. Re-upload file sources through their supported flow.
+
+When no source exists and the user asks for a sketch, mockup, wireframe or layout first, build a **layout preview** instead. Ask about this fork only when genuinely ambiguous; data first is the default.
+
+- Keep the preview private. Mark every sample card with `data-graphit-placeholder="true"` instead of a query or source binding. Use static illustrative markup, not fake executable SQL or fabricated source IDs.
+- Use obviously synthetic values and one visible banner: "Layout preview: all numbers are placeholders." This is a layout deliverable, not an analytical result.
+- Do not quote placeholder values as business facts or infer a trend from them. If asked for an analytical conclusion, explain that real data must be wired first.
+- "Wire it" returns to the scratch-source path: replace each placeholder with a real resolve and the full entity attributes from ../graphit/references/runtime.md, verify the results, then remove its marker. Keep the same dashboard ID. Remove the banner only after every placeholder has been replaced and verified.
+- Share refuses while any placeholder marker remains; an attractive preview is not ready to share.
+
+## Finish the requested work
+
+Build and show sections as they become useful; continue authorized work without an approval round per chart. Check the canvas, fix `entity_sql_warnings`, and verify rendering and real resolves before calling a data-backed dashboard complete. For a preview, verify layout and marker coverage and report it specifically as a preview.
+
+Without Share's established shared scope/draft, Build writes only privately. Shared authoring stays within that authorization; Share retains checks before shared dependency writes and publication. Private sources refresh manually, in full. A schedule or Slack/email delivery request needs Share for the source and its bound model; explain that and offer it if not already requested. The dashboard may remain private. A private report or export alone does not imply scheduled delivery or a visibility change.
+
+For Private first, end with the private link, verification and limitations, plus one offer to share; an offer grants no permission. When sharing/publication is already requested, continue the same artifact through Share's remaining checks and report its actual outcome. Do not repeat an answered choice; obtain approval for additional effects when required. A draft-only request stays a draft.

+## Entry and continuity
+
+The Graphit role and essential rules above apply immediately; this workflow is already selected. Read [Graphit core](../graphit/SKILL.md) only for missing guidance: Health before the first CLI command or on changed CLI behavior; Intents for creation with unresolved placement; Non-negotiables before canvas authoring. Reuse established health and choices; do not invoke the router again. Read action references when their action is needed. Paths below are relative to this skill directory.
+
+On Claude Code, enter workflows through the Skill tool using the installed catalog name; an ordinary file read is not native activation. On Codex, use its skill-loading mechanism and read the selected SKILL.md. Keep the same conversation, artifact IDs, choices and successful effects across transitions. After compaction, reload missing common instructions and action references before acting; do not repeat completed setup or mutations. Previously loaded workflows do not authorize a later action outside the user's current request.
+
+<!-- WORKFLOW:START -->
+
+Load for a question, explanation or diagnosis, including a read of a shared dashboard. Explore does not authorize sharing or semantic authoring. Read only the definitions and context needed for this question; follow the current request when an earlier turn used Build or Share.
+
+## Find the answer
+
+1. Establish the requested meaning, period, grain, filters and units from the request and accessible definitions. Use a fitting governed metric when one answers the question. Inspect candidates in full; a matching name alone is not equivalence. Ask only if unresolved meaning would change the answer.
+2. Prefer an existing shared cached source, then the caller's own private cached source. Read the binding instead of guessing from names. State the selected source in one line so the user can redirect; no source-selection interview when the evidence is sufficient.
+3. If neither holds the needed data, use a private scratch source through ../graphit/references/data-sources.md: `--domain Private`, a `scratch_` name, only the columns and rows needed, aggregated to the question's grain with a capped time window. State the row bound and cost estimate, or say the cost is unknown; obtain any required source-operation approval. If a scratch source cannot serve the question, live warehouse access requires cost confirmation. An empty cached result alone is not permission to switch to live queries.
+4. Read ../graphit/references/governance.md and ../graphit/references/sql-reference.md for executable references, validation and receipts. Use labeled ad-hoc SQL only when the governed definitions do not fit. On a shared source give a truthful, specific reason; the current server's EXPLORE and reason requirements still apply on private sources too. A refusal is not permission to bypass a rule. Explain it using ../graphit/references/governance-explained.md when needed.
+5. If a same-named shared metric means something different, show both definitions and observed numbers, with source, grain, filters and units. Do not silently substitute one. If a number cannot be obtained, state the limitation instead of inventing a comparison. Diagnose from evidence and distinguish correlation from a supported causal claim.
+
+## Deliver and stop
+
+Return the answer in chat, a compact table when useful, the receipt's trust tier and material limitations. A complete answer needs no dashboard. When a chart is requested, use the surface's query-chart affordance where available; a saved chart is a private scratch dashboard in My Dashboards, stated in one line, with the canvas contracts in ../graphit/references/runtime.md. Do not turn a question into an unrequested finished dashboard.
+
+Explore creates no metrics, dimensions, rules or groups, changes no existing asset, and shares nothing. Its only scratch writes are the private source and requested scratch dashboard above. "Keep this as a metric" changes the next action to Build; an explicitly shared definition belongs to Share. Reusing an accessible shared definition is a read, not a grant to change it.
+
+At the end offer once: "Keep this as a metric or a dashboard?" If scratch was created, include an offer to delete it. An offer does not authorize deletion; run `graphit ds delete <id> --yes` for that own-private scratch source only after the user chooses deletion, following ../graphit/references/data-sources.md. Carry the same scratch IDs forward instead of creating versions.

+
+Own shared permissions, dependencies, drafts and publication. For dashboard creation or content edits, load [graphit-build](../graphit-build/SKILL.md) too; references alone do not replace it. Reuse loaded workflows and choices. Reads remain Explore; audience words alone grant no sharing. "Just build it" changes narration, not authority or checks.
+
+For "publish", inspect the dashboard state and follow ../graphit/references/dashboard-create.md's publication mapping; the word alone does not choose a CLI verb.
+
+## Choose the shape and door
+
+| Shape | Work |
+|---|---|
+| a. Share a private dashboard | Resolve its private dependency closure, then share and file the same dashboard ID. |
+| b. Share definitions | Reuse or move the selected models/metrics into the agreed group; a bound source follows its model. |
+| c. Schedule or deliver from a private source | Plan the source and bound model's move to a shared group before configuring the requested schedule/report. The dashboard may stay private. |
+| d. Author directly in a group | "Shared from the start": apply checks before each shared source/definition write. Build authors the new private dashboard; share it when complete. Keep the agreed scope. |
+| e. Repository-owned work | Apply the same decisions through ../graphit/references/repo-kb.md's repository/PR workflow on a capable surface. An in-app ownership refusal is a handoff, not permission for a direct-write replacement. |
+
+Use the **draft door** for shared dashboards and the **share plan** for private work. Preserve the current door when adding Build.
+
+## Shared-scope checks
+
+Read ../graphit/references/kb-scope.md for effective permissions and exact placement, ../graphit/references/kb-discovery.md for staged reuse discovery, and ../graphit/references/semantic-authoring.md plus ../graphit/references/kb-actions.md for supported definitions, equivalence and verification. Resolve the audience, lowercase group and uppercase policy key from current `status` and returned `domain_keys`; carry forward choices already made. Read access is the ceiling for writes, and a status result is advisory, never a grant.
+
+**KB-readiness gate:** before work goes live for others, confirm the required models, nested components, metrics, groups and rules exist and have the needed verification. If a business measure is missing, present its gap and proposed governed definition for approval, then author and verify the approved prerequisites. An ad-hoc business measure can be unavailable to governed-only viewers; do not silently publish it as a reusable governed answer. Compare actual binding, grain, time dimension, aggregation, filters, units and policy, not just names or SQL. A same-named conflicting asset is not equivalent: explain the difference and resolve the consequential choice. A truly equivalent accessible asset should be reused.
+
+Choose dashboard audience and folder through ../graphit/references/dashboard-create.md when sharing. Org sharing requires the dashboard owner to be an org admin/owner; team sharing requires ownership and actual membership. When needed, explain Private/ORG/named scopes via ../graphit/references/kb-scope.md; keep dashboard audience separate.
+
+Before any share or publish, inspect the dashboard for `data-graphit-placeholder` markers. Refuse while any remain and offer "wire it" through [graphit-build](../graphit-build/SKILL.md). Do not remove markers simply to make sharing pass; real resolves must replace the placeholders.
+
+## Draft door: already shared
+
+Acquire the edit session with `dashboard edit` before content changes. Build authors and verifies in that same draft; apply the KB-readiness gate at publish, not after every chart. Query governance and private-dependency restrictions still apply in the draft. Any new shared definitions or sources use shape d and its create checks. Pre-flight with `dashboard check`, resolve warnings, then use `dashboard publish` when publishing is authorized. Read back publication state before reporting live. A request to save a draft does not authorize publication.
+
+Report 409 (another editor), 423 (locked) and 403 (view-only) with the returned next step. Preserve the same ID and draft. Do not duplicate, steal a session or discard edits to get past a refusal.
+
+## Share plan: private to shared
+
+1. With the requested audience and placement established and the content checked, attempt `dashboard share` on the same ID. A success needs audience and placement readback; a private-dependency refusal supplies `blockers` and `remediation_options`. Read ../graphit/references/sharing-recovery.md. Respect `blockers_truncated` and uncertainty; the visible list is not proof of a complete closure when eligibility could not be verified. For shapes b/c without a dashboard, inspect the selected assets and their visible dependencies directly; do not invent a share-preview endpoint.
+2. For each returned private dependency, choose **reuse**, **move**, or **create**. Reuse an accessible shared equivalent only after inspecting its full definition. Move an approved model or metric with `kb update semantic-model` or `kb update metric` and the target `group`; the bound source's home follows its model, there is no independent source-move command. Create only a genuinely missing, supported definition through `kb create`, never a copy to evade ownership or a refusal. Include naming collisions and the impact of changing visibility.
+3. Present the whole plan as **one structured ask**: exact assets, reuse comparisons, moves/new definitions, affected audience, group, rules and destination. Carry forward existing authorization; ask for the additional effects or consequential choices not yet approved. An authorization to share a dashboard alone does not silently authorize broadening every source's audience.
+4. Apply the approved dependency order one item at a time. Read each terminal receipt and re-read the resulting definition/binding before the next step. When reusing a shared asset, rewrite each `data-graphit-*` attribute naming the replaced asset through `dashboard update-html`, preserving unrelated content. Run the readiness checks on the resulting references and pre-flight the canvas. `dashboard check` is not proof of sharing eligibility.
+5. Retry the original `dashboard share` with the agreed space/team and `--folder-path`. Verify the same ID's audience through `dashboard list` and placement through the destination folder listing. For definitions/source-only work, read back the exact group, binding and requested configuration instead of claiming a dashboard was shared.
+6. On intermediate failure, report what applied, what remains and the returned next step. Preserve successful work. Reconcile uncertain writes by reading state before retrying; do not repeat a non-retryable operation unchanged, silently fall back to another folder, or create a replacement dashboard/source.
+
+If the member lacks target write grants, say which requested changes are unavailable and where the work remains. They may keep building privately or share a dashboard based entirely on already-shareable assets if authorized. Provide the unapplied plan for a steward; do not claim it was sent or granted. Report success only for effects confirmed by receipts and readback.
