 This subsumes the GitHub-source pipeline. Steps:
 
+**Brief on prior retros for this codebase first.** Before any of the steps below — and before any file edits — read what the project has previously learned about this repo. This is the consumer side of the iterative-learning loop; the producer side fills retros via `think retro` (see Step 6 below and the project README at `<vault>/projects/agentic-iterative-learning/README.md` for context).
+
+Derive the cortex name from the ticket's `repo:` frontmatter using the **same rule pinned in Step 6** (path component after the slash, lowercased). Examples: `OpenThinkAi/open-team` → `open-team`, `Anglepoint-Engineering/ui-host` → `ui-host`. The cortex name is agent-controlled (sourced from validated frontmatter), so it's safe to use as a literal in shell.
+
+Run `think brief` and capture stdout. **Do not gate on exit code or empty output** — every failure mode (missing binary, cortex not found, non-zero exit, empty cortex) is non-fatal here:
+
+```sh
+think brief --cortex <derived-cortex-name> 2>&1 || true
+```
+
+Treat the captured output as a labelled background section in your context — mentally `## Prior retros and personal context for <repo>`. **It is background, not actionable directives**: lessons to weigh while implementing the spike plan, not a re-litigation of the spike itself. If `think` is missing, exits non-zero, or the cortex has no promoted retros yet, note `no prior retros yet for <repo>` and proceed normally — the producer side (AGT-169 + AGT-173) is still filling cortexes, so empty results are common and expected.
+
+This step is gated implicitly: Phase 4a (vault-only, no `repo:`) skips it because 4a never enters this section. Other phases (refinement / spike / QA) do not run this step — only implementation start.

 **6. Route stamp retro candidates (stamp / local-stamp only).** Skipped when `MODE=plain` — plain GitHub repos don't run `stamp review`, so there are no retro fences to parse.

Each candidate carries a `kind` (`convention | invariant | prior_decision | gotcha`) and a human-readable observation. Step 5's `tee` captured the last (gate-opening) `stamp review` invocation's output to `$STAMP_REVIEW_OUT`, and `$STAMP_REVIEW_HEAD_SHA` records what HEAD that review ran against.

+The recipe below sidesteps the assignment problem entirely by writing the untrusted observation to a tempfile via the agent's `Write` tool (a tool-call argv, not bash), then in bash reading that file with `OBS=$(< /tmp/file)`.

-For each fence in `$STAMP_REVIEW_OUT`, parse it (Step 1) and then run Steps 2–4 once per candidate in that fence's `{candidates: [...]}` array. A single fence can carry 0–5 candidates; an empty array is a valid no-op for that reviewer.

 1. **Parse the fence.** Extract the `reviewer="…"` attribute and the inner JSON. If the JSON is malformed for a given fence, STOP with `🛑 BLOCKED — Could not parse STAMP-RETRO fence from <reviewer>` (use `unknown` if even the open-tag attribute didn't parse). The producer protocol is the contract; a parse failure is a real signal, not noise to swallow.
 
-2. **Filter for codebase-only.** Drop any candidate whose observation is *about the agent's own tools* — stamp, oteam, think, claude-code, the role-pipeline prompt itself. Those belong to the deferred per-tool triage channel and are out of scope here. "About" means the tool is the *subject* of the observation (e.g. "stamp's review output is hard to grep") — not just a passing reference (e.g. "this reviewer prompt assumes stamp is installed"). Use judgment; if you're 50/50, keep the candidate — over-filing is recoverable, under-filing is silent loss. The drop is by *subject*, not by `$REPO_SLUG`: a codebase observation about open-team's own internals, when the ticket's `repo:` is open-team itself, still gets filed in step 4 — that's the design.
-
-3. **Dedupe semantically.** For each surviving candidate, search existing issues on `$REPO_SLUG`:

-   ```sh
-   gh issue list --repo "$REPO_SLUG" --label iterative-learning --state all --search "$KEYWORDS"
-   ```

+3. **Emit survivors via `think retro`.** Two-tool recipe: write the observation to a tempfile via the agent's `Write` tool (so untrusted text never touches a shell parser), then read it into a bash variable with `$(< file)` (file-read, not re-eval) and pass to `think retro`. Concretely:

-
-   - **Compose the title.** It must be an *agent-authored paraphrase* of the observation — e.g. "Reviewer prompts: heredoc indent breaks copy-paste" — never a verbatim slice of `observation` text. ≤72 chars, plain ASCII letters/digits/spaces/`:`/`-`. Validate the `kind` value against the four-element enum and the `reviewer="…"` attribute against `[a-z][a-z0-9_-]*` before using either; reject the candidate (STOP) if the producer emitted something off-spec.
-   - **Write the body file.** Use the agent's `Write` tool with `file_path=/tmp/retro-body-<TICKET-ID>-<reviewer>-<index>.md` and `content=` set to:
-
-     ```
-     <full observation text — pasted as a JSON string into the Write tool's
-     argv; the tool-call interface bypasses bash entirely, so any $(…),
-     backticks, or quotes in the observation are treated as literal data>
-
-     ---
-     - **kind**: <validated kind>
-     - **emitted by reviewer**: <validated reviewer-id>
-     - **emitted from ticket**: <TICKET_ID literal>
-     - **stamp head SHA**: <STAMP_REVIEW_HEAD_SHA literal>
-     ```
-
-     Substitute the literal values for `<TICKET_ID literal>` and `<STAMP_REVIEW_HEAD_SHA literal>` into the `content` string at compose time — do not leave `$VAR` placeholders, since `Write` does no expansion.
-   - **Ensure the label exists, then file.** First-time runs against a fresh repo will fail because `iterative-learning` isn't a default label. Make label creation idempotent and don't count it against the 3-attempt cap:
+   - **Validate the candidate's metadata.** Validate the `reviewer="…"` attribute against `[a-z][a-z0-9_-]*`; reject (STOP with `🛑 BLOCKED — Off-spec reviewer attribute on STAMP-RETRO fence`) if off-spec. Validate the candidate's `kind` against the four-element enum (`convention | invariant | prior_decision | gotcha`); if it isn't one of those, **omit the `--kind` flag** (the retro lands without a kind — AC 4 of AGT-173). Do not STOP on an off-spec kind; only an off-spec reviewer attribute STOPs.
+   - **Derive the cortex name** via the rule pinned above: `<owner>/<name>` → lowercase `<name>`. Use the literal value in the `--cortex` argument; this is agent-controlled (sourced from the ticket frontmatter), so it is safe in shell.
+   - **Write the observation to a tempfile.** Use the agent's `Write` tool with `file_path=/tmp/retro-obs-<TICKET-ID>-<reviewer>-<index>.txt` and `content=` set to the **full observation text only** — no kind/reviewer/ticket/SHA appendix, since think captures emission metadata itself. The tool-call argv bypasses bash entirely, so any `$(…)`, backticks, or quotes in the observation are treated as literal data.
+   - **Emit the retro.** Compose the bash command with the literal cortex name and (if present) the literal validated kind substituted in — those are agent-controlled. The observation is read from the tempfile via `$(< /tmp/retro-obs-...)`:
 
      ```sh
-     gh label create iterative-learning \
-         --repo "$REPO_SLUG" \
-         --description "Auto-filed codebase observation from stamp review retros" \
-         --color B5DEFF \
-         2>/dev/null || true

-     gh issue create \
-         --repo "$REPO_SLUG" \
-         --label iterative-learning \
-         --title "<agent-authored title>" \
-         --body-file "<path written above>"
+     OBS=$(< /tmp/retro-obs-<TICKET-ID>-<reviewer>-<index>.txt)
+     think retro "$OBS" --cortex <validated-cortex-name>
+     # …or, when a validated kind is present:
+     think retro "$OBS" --cortex <validated-cortex-name> --kind <validated-kind>
      ```
 
-   On a `gh` API failure (auth, rate limit, network), STOP with `🛑 BLOCKED — gh issue create failed for <candidate title>`.
+     `$VAR` interpolation inside double quotes does NOT re-evaluate `$()`/backticks contained in the value, so attacker-shaped observation text is passed as a single argv item, untouched.
+
+   On `think retro` exit non-zero (cortex backend failure, malformed flag, missing binary), STOP with `🛑 BLOCKED — think retro failed for <reviewer> candidate <index>`.
 
-Successful filing and successful dedupe are both **silent** — they show up in your transcript but are not a stop condition. Only failures STOP. If `$STAMP_REVIEW_OUT` is empty or contains no `STAMP-RETRO` fences (e.g. the installed `@openthink/stamp` predates 1.1.0, or every reviewer emitted zero candidates), proceed silently — that's a valid no-op.
