+> **Carve-out (does not overlap existing ops):** `afm-promote` **registers** a finding meant for the plugin. It does not write to the plugin. `afm-generalize` merges **inside the instance** (N gotchas become 1 rule in the same `/docs/`). `afm-reconcile` **adds** a new gotcha. `afm-generalize` **merges** gotchas that already exist. `afm-reflect` refines **one** doc. `afm-generalize` consolidates **many**. `afm-evolve` is the **orchestrator** and it composes this skill when `afm-diagnose` flags inflation from redundant gotchas.
+
+## When NOT to activate
+
+This is a disambiguation criterion for someone who already activated the skill, not an activation trigger. That is why it lives in the body, not in the resident listing.
+
+Sending ONE learning to the plugin is `afm-promote`. ADDING a new gotcha or rule is `afm-reconcile` -> `afm-gotcha`/`afm-rule` (`afm-generalize` only merges what already exists). Refining the clarity of ONE doc is `afm-reflect`. With fewer than 2 similar candidates, there is no generalization to do.
+
+## Pre-check
+
+1. **Does `<consumer>/docs/.afm-version` exist?** If not, stop and suggest `afm-init` (greenfield) or `afm-refactor` (brownfield) first.
+2. **Does `afm preflight` exit 0?** A non-zero exit says why (docs not bootstrapped, content unresolved, pin mismatch). Report it to the user. Do not fall back silently.
+3. **Is there a batch of >=2** similar gotchas/reflections? If not, report "nothing to generalize (no batch)" and stop. Generalizing from 1 case is forbidden (#5).
+
+## Gate
+
+The merge is load-bearing and goes through its own earned gate, `afm ask generalize` (suppressed under `afm-evolve`). Merged entries become tombstones; never delete.
+
+## Most relevant here
+
+#1 (episodic `gotchas.md` -> semantic `afm.md`), #3 (a merged rule becomes hard only with an executable 0/1 trigger), #5 (no abstraction without a real batch), #6/#8 (self-verify before an earned gate; deletion is a bright line, so archive as tombstones). No new principle here: the doctrine lives in the op.

+## When NOT to activate

+## Pre-check
+
+`afm preflight`. Exit 3 means there is no instance: stop and suggest `afm-init` or `afm-refactor` first.
+
+## Procedure (judgment only)
+
+1. Validate the entry rule BEFORE you collect content: `afm ask gotcha`. `neither` stops: reject a gotcha
+   without a 2x incidence or an external doc.
+2. Collect the area, trigger, behavior, solution and references as free text. Decide how it fires: an
+   `event` when no file shape can fire it, a `file-shape` only with a narrow glob. A guessed trigger is worse
+   than one that never fires.
+3. Run `afm gotcha new <slug> --basis <bitten-twice|documented-sdk> ...` and report the path (#6). A later
+   re-bite is `afm gotcha bite <id>`.
+
+## Invariant principles
+
+Most relevant here: #5 (do not
+invent a gotcha without a real case; the 2x entry check is a strong gate) and #6 (autonomy-first: save the
+result and report it).
+
+Passive mode (`afm-reconcile`) is always on and can propose `afm-gotcha` when it detects the signal "the
+same runtime surprise blocked work twice." This skill covers only active registration.

+
+If the project already has `docs/.afm-version`, use the atomic skills instead. To move to a new version, use
+`afm-update`. A brownfield codebase with no docs needs `afm-refactor` instead.
+
+## Pre-check (before any action)
+
+1. **`afm preflight`.** Exit 3 means there is no `docs/.afm-version`: continue. Any other exit means the
+   project is already bootstrapped. **Do not run bootstrap again.** The atomic skills stay available
+   (`afm-gotcha`, `afm-adr`, `afm-rule`, `afm-promote`, `afm-specify`, `afm-plan`, `afm-tasks`, `afm-clarify`,
+   `afm-analyze`, `afm-export-template`), and passive mode (`afm-reconcile`) stays always-on.
+2. **Does `docs/.template` exist?** Yes means the project comes from a template: ask `afm ask init-template`
+   whether to run the from-template branch, a subset focused on the product (default `Product only`). `Full
+   interview` goes to pre-check 3.
+3. **Does the project have significant pre-existing code?** A populated source root and a manifest with real
+   dependencies, or a git log with more than 20 commits. If so this is NOT the right path: stop and suggest
+   `afm-refactor`: *"This project already has code. Greenfield bootstrap would make you pretend it is new.
+   `afm-refactor` infers the docs from the existing code. Want to run it?"* `afm refactor --mechanical
+   --dry-run` states the verdict with its reasons.
+4. **Is the shipped content resolved?** `afm preflight` exit 4 means it is not. Tell the operator. Do not
+   guess the content and do not fail silently.
+
+---
+
+## Procedure (greenfield bootstrap)
+
+For projects without `docs/.afm-version`:
+
+1. Read `afm path interview/bootstrap` end to end.
+2. Ask the closed decisions the mechanical pass needs: `afm ask init`. Then run `afm init --mechanical`
+   (preview with `--dry-run`, or `--answers <file>` for a headless run). It creates `docs/` and `docs/adr/`,
+   fills the skeletons with the measured rule constants and `[TBD]` where the code answers nothing, copies
+   every rubric and pattern, writes `AGENTS.md` plus the harness stubs, and writes `docs/.afm-version` last.
+3. **Run the 7-step interview literally.** One question per turn. Free text only for open descriptions. For
+   everything with closed options, ask through `afm ask <op>` with the recommendation first (invariant
+   principle #8). Validate each answer with `afm ask confirm`. Fill each step into the matching
+   `docs/<file>.md`, replacing `{{placeholders}}` with the operator's answers and leaving unknown answers as
+   `[TBD]` (invariant principle #4).
+4. Apply opt-in modules. For each stack the operator confirms, read `afm path modules/<stack>/ach.patch` and
+   `afm path modules/<stack>/rules.patch` and merge them into `docs/ach.md` and `docs/afm.md`. A
+   `gotchas.seed` is a **commented reference** only: the project's `docs/gotchas/` starts empty.
+5. Generate the indexes (`afm index --materialize`) and print a summary: list every `[TBD]` and ask which ones
+   to fill in now.
+
+**Branch from-template** (if pre-check 2 found `docs/.template`): run a subset of the steps. The subset is
+0 + 3 + 6 short + 7 adapted. Skip steps 1, 2, 4 and 5, because the template already has them. The full
+procedure is in `afm path interview/bootstrap` § Alternate branch. `.afm-version` gets an inheritance line.
+
+---
+
+## Invariant principles
+
+For this skill (greenfield), #9 (retroactive ADR, load-bearing) does NOT apply to init. Bootstrap forbids a retroactive ADR.

+
+The always-on skill. It loads the continuous doctrine and the passive-mode procedure, and it is the only skill that activates by default in any AFM project session. Every other skill needs explicit invocation or specific natural language.
+
+## When NOT to activate
+
+A project without `docs/.afm-version`: stay silent until bootstrap. Do not interfere with a bootstrap session (`afm-init`) or a refactor session (`afm-refactor`); they create `.afm-version`, and reconcile starts after that.
+
+## Pre-check
+
+`afm preflight` exits 0 when the project is bootstrapped: reconcile is active, so load the signal table and the procedure and watch the whole session. Exit 3 means it is not: stay silent and propose nothing.
+
+## Doctrine
+
+One criterion decides where something belongs (universal principle #1, source in `afm path PRINCIPLES.md`):
+
+> *"If another developer, or another agent without my memory, needs to know this to avoid breaking something, it is a doc, not memory."*
+
+`docs/` holds rules, decisions, gotchas, architecture, persona, flows and cross-module contracts. The agent's memory holds only the user's style and durable preferences ("small PRs, not big bundles") and personal context (role, years of experience, current focus).
+
+`docs/` is a living source, **not a frozen bootstrap artifact**: it evolves through the whole session by passive reconcile. The signal table is `afm path interview/triggers.md`.
+
+## Procedure (always-on)
+
+In any session of a project with `docs/.afm-version`:
+
+1. Load `afm path interview/triggers.md`: the signals, the affected docs and the ready-made phrasing.
+2. Load the op `afm path ops/reconcile.md`: the literal passive-mode procedure.
+3. Monitor the work in progress (code, debugging, refactor, feature, doc edit). When a signal fires (a new structural decision, a runtime surprise twice, a correction with a reusable rule, a new component), **propose an edit** to the right `docs/` file at the end of the turn.
+4. **Never auto-apply** (principle #6: autonomy-first applies inside an invoked op or an approved feature; a passive signal is not approved scope).
+5. When a proposal becomes a concrete action, suggest the matching op: `afm-adr`, `afm-gotcha`, `afm-rule`, `afm-promote`, `afm-specify`, and more.
+
+## Critical anti-patterns
+
+Never apply an edit without proposing it first, never save a project rule in memory, never invent a gotcha without a 2x trigger, never promote to the template before the operator confirms, and never interrupt code work with a long proposal: use one short line at the end of the turn. The full list is in the op.

+4. **Is the shipped content resolved?** `afm preflight` exit 4 means it is not. Report it. Do not guess the
+   content and do not fall back silently.
+
+---
+
+## Procedure (brownfield refactor)
+
+For brownfield projects without `docs/.afm-version`:
+
+1. Read `afm path interview/refactor` end to end.
+2. Ask the closed decisions the mechanical pass needs (`afm ask init`), announce the plan in one line and
+   proceed directly: **no gate** (invoking `afm-refactor` already approves this, per invariant principle #6).
+3. **Run the 4 parts literally:**
+   - **Part A**: `afm refactor --mechanical` runs the autonomous code archaeology (stack scan, folder tree,
+     entity scan, CI and hooks scan, hard-rule audit, retroactive ADR candidates) and prints the report. No
+     turns with the operator. Read the README and the history yourself for the prose-only facts.
+   - **Part B**: the same command materialized the skeleton of `docs/{prd,ach,afm,ust,gotchas}`; fill the
+     drafts from the report with `[TBD]` in the gaps and report a summary plus paths. Review happens through
+     `git diff`. No review gate applies.
+   - **Part C**: run a short interview, one question per turn, closed ones through `afm ask <op>`
+     recommendation-first (invariant principle #8). Cover the pain point, the persona and the README summary
+     validation, retroactive ADRs (with a load-bearing guardrail, invariant principle #9), confirmed gotchas,
+     DoD + pre-push and code-style seeds.
+   - **Part D**: write `afm.md § 3.1` with forward-only rules based on the audit. Check `docs/.afm-version` and
+     `AGENTS.md`.
+4. Apply the opt-in modules detected in A.1. For each stack, merge `afm path modules/<stack>/ach.patch` and
+   `afm path modules/<stack>/rules.patch` into the draft. A `gotchas.seed` becomes a commented block in the
+   gotchas doc. Only the entries the operator confirms in C.9.5 become active.
+5. Print a closing summary plus a suggested commit (see the roadmap § Closing).
+
+---
+
+## Invariant principles
+
+For this skill (brownfield), **all** principles apply: the 8 universals
+§1-8 plus the addition §9 (a retroactive ADR is load-bearing-only). #9 separates refactor from init. Init
+forbids retroactive ADRs.
+
+## Continuous doctrine
+
+Passive mode (`afm-reconcile`) is always-on in any AFM project session. This skill covers only the active refactor procedure.

An existing doc guided the agent wrong, so `reflect` proposes a clearer version. `afm-diagnose` runs a **static** scan. `reflect` uses **behavioral** evidence from the session trajectory. Only the agent sees its own stumble. `afm-evolve` is the **orchestrator**. It composes `reflect` and `afm-diagnose` into one cycle with a single gate.
+
+## When not to activate
+
+This is a disambiguation criterion for a skill already active, not an activation criterion. That is why it lives in the body, not in the resident listing.
+
+Learning a new fact, gotcha, or decision belongs to passive mode (`afm-reconcile`). Route it to `afm-gotcha`, `afm-rule`, or `afm-adr`. A static mechanical scan belongs to `afm-diagnose`. Merging N gotchas belongs to `afm-generalize`. A failure with an external signal belongs to `afm-remediate`. The full cycle belongs to `afm-evolve`.
+
+## Pre-check
+
+1. **Does `<consumer>/docs/.afm-version` exist?** If not, stop. Suggest `afm-init` (greenfield) or `afm-refactor` (brownfield) first.
+2. **Does `afm preflight` exit 0?** A non-zero exit says why (docs not bootstrapped, content unresolved, pin mismatch). Report it to the user. Do not fall back silently.
+3. **Did the live session or the project's sessions since the last cycle hit a doc-friction event** (or an articulated symptom)? Read the window with `afm sessions --since reflect --json` and `afm sessions signals --since reflect --json`. If the whole window has no signal, report "no doc friction observed" and stop. Reflection without behavioral evidence is forbidden (#5).
+
+## Procedure
+
+The steps are:
+
+**1. Collection.** Build the behavioral signature φ_b = `(symptom-lived, doc-causal-status, mechanism)`. Cite both the doc passage **and** the session event (`session:<id>@<ts>`). Weight: one signal in the live session suffices; a past-session signal needs 2 or more sessions, an explicit correction, or `regressed`, and `regressed` comes first. A repeated prompt is a finding: propose the artifact that stops the retyping.
+
+**2. Self-critique.** Consider a rival hypothesis: it was me, not the doc. Apply the guardrail: a violated rule is not a wrong rule. Apply an addressability filter.
+
+**3. Proposal.** Refine instructiveness: rewrite the ambiguous part, add an executable trigger, and remove ambiguity. Add suggestions for the human. This step follows the **shared proposal discipline** in `evolve.md` (`afm path ops/evolve.md`) and does not duplicate it.
+
+**4. Own gate.** Ask item by item, earned, with `afm ask reflect --scope <item-slug>`. `afm-evolve` suppresses this gate.
+
+**5. Record.** Write to `docs/evolution/NNN-<date>.md`. Add an `afm-promote` suggestion when the finding generalizes. Hand off to passive mode (`afm-reconcile`).
+
+## Invariant principles
+
+Rule #1 applies: refine the doc's instructiveness, not the agent's memory. Rule #5 applies: no lived event, no finding. Rule #6 applies: self-verify, then report. The gate is a load-bearing residue. Bright lines #7 for plugin, deletion, and push apply.
+
+Rule #8 applies: a suggestion or question must be earned, recommendation-first. **No new principle here.** `reflect` is a composed materialization. The doctrine lives in the op file.

+## When NOT to activate
+
+This is a disambiguation for a skill that already activated. It is not an activation trigger. That is why it lives in the body and not in the resident listing.
+
+Use `afm.md § 5.1` for an in-task retry at the moment of the error. Use `afm-gotcha` for an SDK surprise with no failure of its own. Do not invent a failure. Only act on a recorded failure that `afm failures promotable` lists, or on an explicit user correction.
+
+## Pre-check
+
+1. **Does `<consumer>/docs/.afm-version` exist?** If not, stop. Suggest `afm-init` for a greenfield project or `afm-refactor` for a brownfield project.
+2. **Is there an open failure?** Run `afm failures promotable`. With `no failure is promotable` and no explicit user correction, report "nothing to remediate" and stop. An empty diagnosis is a valid result.
+3. **Does `afm preflight` exit 0?** A non-zero exit says why (docs not bootstrapped, content unresolved, pin mismatch). Report it to the user. Do not fall back silently.
+
+## Procedure
+
+The op includes the promotion gate (#5): 1 user correction OR at least 2 mechanical occurrences promote a failure. A transient failure does not promote. It also includes classification through the rubric `rubrics/failure-classification.md` (`afm path rubrics/failure-classification.md`). For each delta, propose the artifact (procedure or learning) and cite the source `sig=` (hard rule 19). Ask the artifact question with `afm ask remediate --scope <sig>`, materialize the result, close the signature with `afm failures close --sig <sig> --as remediated`, and report it (#6).
+
+## Invariant principles
+
+Most relevant here: #3 (CRITIC corollary — recognition by tool, not self-judgment). See also #5 (do not promote a failure without recurrence or an oracle) and #6 (propose only, the human approves).
+
+## Continuous doctrine
+
+Passive mode (`afm-reconcile`) is always on. It reads `afm failures promotable` at the end of the turn and can propose remediation with no explicit command. The `afm-evolve` cycle uses the failure events as evidence for `afm-reflect`, toward a final remediation. This skill is the active record of the loop.

+
+## When NOT to activate
+
+This is a disambiguation guide for a skill that has already activated. It does not gate activation, so it stays in the body, not in the resident listing.
+
+A path that does not exist belongs to `afm-diagnose` (A1). Staleness means the path exists but changed. Information never documented belongs to passive mode (`afm-reconcile`) → `afm-gotcha` or `afm-rule`. An ambiguous doc belongs to `afm-reflect`. Merging gotchas belongs to `afm-generalize`. The full cycle belongs to `afm-evolve`.
+
+## Pre-check
+
+1. **Does `<consumer>/docs/.afm-version` exist?** If not, stop. Suggest `afm-init` (greenfield) or `afm-refactor` (brownfield) first.
+2. **Does `afm preflight` exit 0?** A non-zero exit says why (docs not bootstrapped, content unresolved, pin mismatch). Report it to the user. Do not fall back silently.
+3. **Is git available?** The staleness scan needs the git history. Without git, `afm doctor` marks this axis "not covered: no git". Never omit it.
+
+## Procedure
+
+Use these five steps.
+
+1. **Staleness scan.** `afm doctor --json` runs it (findings with axis `staleness` and `dead-gotcha`); read them. The git trigger fires in two cases. First case: a path cited in the doc has a later last commit than the doc. Second case: the doc has been stale for more than N commits. A hit is a candidate, not a verdict. The scan never rewrites the doc on its own.
+2. **Findability.** Relocate or cross-reference information that exists but sits buried or in the wrong doc. Cite both locations. Route information that is genuinely missing to passive mode (`afm-reconcile`).
+3. **Temperature partition.** Propose a hot/on-demand loading strategy as an opt-in ADR. Do this only when a doc has outgrown its size. Preserve 100% of the content.
+4. **Its own gate.** This gate is load-bearing and earned, one `afm ask restructure --scope <item-slug>` per finding. It follows the **shared-proposal discipline** in `evolve.md` (`afm path ops/evolve.md`), instead of a duplicate copy of that discipline. `afm-evolve` suppresses this gate when it runs.
+5. **Record.** Write the result to `docs/evolution/NNN-<date>.md`. Suggest `afm-promote` if the finding generalizes.
+
+## Invariant principles
+
+Most relevant here:
+
+- #2: get git evidence before you propose a change.
+- #3: staleness needs an executable git trigger.
+- #4/#5: missing product content becomes `[TBD]` or goes to passive mode (`afm-reconcile`). Never invent it.
+- #6/#8: self-check the work, then pass an earned gate.
