+Enter plan mode with deterministic continuation instructions.
+
+This skill is invoked by processing skills (technical-discussion, technical-specification, etc.) when a pipeline phase concludes. It discovers the next phase and creates a plan mode handoff that survives context compaction.
+
+> **ZERO OUTPUT RULE**: Do not narrate your processing. Produce no output until a step or reference file explicitly specifies display content. No "proceeding with...", no discovery summaries, no routing decisions, no transition text. Your first output must be content explicitly called for by the instructions.
+
+## Instructions
+
+This skill receives context from the calling processing skill:
+- **Topic**: The topic name
+- **Work type**: greenfield, feature, or bugfix
+- **Completed phase**: The phase that just concluded
+

+
+## Step 1: Run Discovery
+
+Determine the next phase by running discovery.

+```
+
+#### If work type is "bugfix"
+
+```bash
+.claude/skills/workflow/bridge/scripts/discovery.sh --bugfix --topic "{topic}"

+- `next_phase`: The computed next phase for this topic
+
+#### If work type is "greenfield"
+
+```bash
+.claude/skills/workflow/bridge/scripts/discovery.sh --greenfield
+```
+
+Parse the output to extract:
+- `state`: Counts of artifacts across all phases
+- Phase-specific file lists with their statuses
+
+→ Proceed to **Step 2**.
+
+---
+
+## Step 2: Route to Continuation Reference
+
+Based on work type, load the appropriate continuation reference:
+
+#### If work type is "feature"
+
+Load **[feature-continuation.md](references/feature-continuation.md)** and follow its instructions as written.
+
+#### If work type is "bugfix"
+
+Load **[bugfix-continuation.md](references/bugfix-continuation.md)** and follow its instructions as written.
+
+#### If work type is "greenfield"
+
+Load **[greenfield-continuation.md](references/greenfield-continuation.md)** and follow its instructions as written.
+
+---
+
+## Notes
+
+**Feature/bugfix** continuation references:
+1. Use discovery output to compute a single `next_phase`
+2. Enter plan mode with instructions to invoke `start-{next_phase}` with topic + work_type
+3. Exit plan mode for user approval
+
+The user will then clear context, and the fresh session will invoke the appropriate start-* skill with the topic and work_type provided, causing it to skip discovery and proceed directly to validation/processing.
+
+**Greenfield** continuation is interactive — greenfield is phase-centric with multiple actionable items, so there is no single next phase. The reference displays state, presents a menu of choices, waits for user selection, then enters plan mode with that specific choice. The plan mode content is deterministic (same as feature/bugfix) once the user has chosen.
