 ## Asking
 
+### Before you ask
+
+Sami, 2026-09-16, verbatim, rejecting two asks the same night: "All of these \"decisions\" are
+completely disconnected from any discussion of design or trade-offs. This is not a very useful way
+of having this discussion" (on a report-table shape), and "What's a fenced PutObject or phantom
+eval_id? What's an R4 model header? What exactly is the question or uncertainty here?" (on a
+production import). Every `dispatch_ask` passes three gates first:
+
+1. **Does it need his authority, taste, or risk appetite?** The same bar as a spec's Decisions
+   needed ([Writing a spec](#writing-a-spec)). Schema shapes, table layouts, field names, migration
+   internals, and contracts between lanes do not: they go to the platform PO over Envoy, who rules.
+2. **Is there genuine uncertainty?** If not, it is a plan you execute. The one legitimate ask
+   without uncertainty is permission for an action only a human can authorise — a production
+   write, an external send, a console action — and then the question is that action in one
+   sentence with `Done` / `Can't` options (below).
+3. **Can someone who has not read the code answer it on a phone?** What he can see today, what
+   changes for a reader, two options with what each costs, your recommendation. No slice or
+   decision numbers, no coined nouns, no internal identifiers he has never used, no jargon you
+   would have to define. This is the phone test in [Writing for the human](#writing-for-the-human).
+   If you cannot write it that way, you do not understand it well enough to ask.
+
+The platform PO audits open asks. One that fails a gate is retracted, with the PO's answer as the
+record.
