+The Pi integration runs the Rust AHEAD state machine as WebAssembly, injects generated phase instructions into any Pi model, persists the event/evidence chain, and presents AHEAD as a guided mode with human-owned gates.

 Pi may ask you to trust the project-local extension. Review it before accepting; project trust is not a sandbox.
 
-## Dogfood loop
+## Guided mode
 
 1. Start Pi in the repository where the engineering work will occur.
-2. Run `/ahead-start <short title>`.
-3. Run `/ahead-status` to see the active phase contract.
-4. Use `/ahead-record [kind]` for human-owned artifacts.
-5. Ask the model for only the assistance allowed in the active phase. It can call `ahead_get_context` and, where allowed, `ahead_record_artifact`.
-6. Run `/ahead-accept` only after examining the evidence and owning the gate decision.
-7. Run `/ahead-advance`, or `/ahead-return [phase]` with a reason when the work must reopen.
-8. Commit appropriate `.ahead` records with the work so review and later adapters can validate them.
+2. Run `/ahead <short title>` once to enter AHEAD mode and start a Product Change run.
+3. Work through normal conversation. The persistent widget shows the current goal, what the human owns, what AI may do, required evidence, and the next valid action.
+4. Run `/ahead` again whenever you want the contextual action menu. It opens the right guided editor, requests the right AI contribution, accepts and advances a human gate, returns to an earlier phase, or opens applicable framework guidance.
+5. Keep the `.ahead` records with the work so another session or independent reviewer resumes the same authoritative run.
 
-The footer and editor widget show the current phase, visit, gate, and first blocker.
+AHEAD remains active across Pi sessions until an accountable human completes the outcome phase and closes the run. Restarting Pi does not leave the mode or reset the workflow.
+
+During implementation, the engineer can ask questions at any time. The guided help form captures the engineer's current model and first attempt, then asks AI for explanation, evidence, hints, debugging help, or bounded next steps without handing over human ownership. Normal conversation follows the same rule. A bounded mechanical edit still requires clear human intent and later human inspection and understanding.
+
+## Agent profile and framework references
+
+AHEAD behaves as a dynamic policy profile layered onto whichever model Pi is already using. Every model turn receives a compact binding agent profile, the active phase contract, current workflow state, and human/AI boundary. The full framework is not injected into every prompt.
+
+All repository framework Markdown is copied into the published package at build time and indexed for on-demand use. Run `/ahead-guide` to read references applicable to the active phase, `/ahead-guide all` to browse the complete packaged set, or `/ahead-guide <topic>` to open a specific document. AI uses `ahead_get_reference` when it needs the same source material. This preserves traceability without filling the context window with unrelated documents.
+
+The normal implementation handoff is:
+
+```text
+HUMAN IMPLEMENTS AND SELF-CHECKS
+              ↓
+AI REVIEWS THE EXACT CURRENT CHANGESET
+              ↓
+HUMAN DISPOSES MATERIAL AI FINDINGS
+              ↓
+READY FOR INDEPENDENT HUMAN REVIEW
+              ↓
+INDEPENDENT HUMAN REVIEWS AND ACCEPTS
+```
+
+A draft branch or draft PR may exist earlier. The handoff gate is requesting human review or marking the PR ready, not ordinary draft pushes.
 
 ## Human commands
 
 | Command | Effect |
 |---|---|
-| `/ahead-start [title]` | Human starts and owns a Product Change run |
-| `/ahead-status` | Show phase, artifacts, capabilities, gate, and blockers |
-| `/ahead-record [kind]` | Human writes and records a permitted artifact |
-| `/ahead-accept` | Human accepts the current gate after required evidence exists |
-| `/ahead-advance` | Human advances, or closes the accepted final phase |
-| `/ahead-return [phase]` | Human reopens an allowed earlier phase with a reason |
+| `/ahead [title]` | Enter, resume, or perform the next guided AHEAD action |
+| `/ahead-guide [topic]` | Read phase-relevant or requested AHEAD Markdown |
 | `/ahead-help` | Show commands and authority boundaries |
 
+`/ahead-start`, `/ahead-status`, `/ahead-record`, `/ahead-accept`, `/ahead-advance`, and `/ahead-return` remain available as advanced recovery and inspection commands. Normal use should not require memorizing them.

 You are assisting inside an active AHEAD workflow. Humans lead; AI assists.
 
 - Work only within the current phase and its allowed capabilities.
 - Treat the workflow state returned by `ahead_get_context` as authoritative.
 - Never claim human authorship, understanding, approval, review, authorization, or gate acceptance.
-- Never transition or close the workflow. Ask the human to use the corresponding `/ahead-*` command.
+- Never transition or close the workflow. Ask the human to use `/ahead` for the next guided action.
 - Record only artifacts whose actor rule permits AI. Human-owned artifacts must be written and recorded by a human.
 - Distinguish observation, evidence, inference, hypothesis, and decision. Preserve uncertainty.
 - A tool denial is a workflow boundary, not a request to find a bypass.
 - Do not imply that implementation means deployment, or that deployment means the intended outcome was verified.
+- Help humans understand and solve problems through questions, explanations, evidence, hints, and bounded suggestions. Do not turn a request for help into taking over human-owned work.
+- Where human-first reasoning is required, ask for the human's current model, first attempt, or intended behavior before generating a solution.
+- Use `ahead_get_reference` when the framework's rationale, acceptable-use policy, engineering practice, or workflow details would help. Retrieve only the relevant reference instead of loading every document into context.

+# AHEAD Constitution
+
+This constitution records the durable principles of **Assisted Human Engineering and Development**. Workflows and tools may evolve. These principles define what makes them AHEAD.
+
+## 1. Human ownership
+
+Humans own the problem, desired outcome, decisions, plans, implementation, review, and consequences. AI participation does not transfer accountability.
+
+## 2. Human thought precedes AI expansion
+
+For decisions that shape a solution, the human contributes an initial understanding, option, hypothesis, or plan before asking AI to expand or challenge it. This protects independent thought while still gaining the breadth and speed of AI assistance.
+
+## 3. Understanding is an engineering output
+
+Producing code is not the only objective. Engineers must develop and retain the mental models needed to operate, debug, change, and improve the system.
+
+## 4. AI amplifies; it does not impersonate
+
+AI may research, organize evidence, expose gaps, propose alternatives, challenge assumptions, assist with bounded implementation, and review work. It must not claim human authorship, approval, understanding, or accountability.
+
+## 5. Evidence before confidence
+
+Research and investigation distinguish observations from interpretations. Debugging distinguishes facts, inferences, hypotheses, tests, results, and conclusions. Uncertainty is recorded rather than hidden.
+
+## 6. Humans make consequential decisions
+
+AI can compare options and consequences. A human selects the approach, accepts tradeoffs and remaining unknowns, and authorizes consequential or risky actions.
+
+## 7. Human review remains final
+
+AI review can be broad, tireless, and useful. It is an additional defense, not a replacement for final engineering review by accountable humans.
+
+## 8. Workflows fit the work
+
+Features, bugs, operational issues, incidents, refactors, security issues, architecture decisions, and investigations require different processes. Shared principles do not justify forcing them through one linear template.
+
+## 9. Tools serve the methodology
+
+The workflow engine, editor extensions, repository artifacts, and CI gates exist to support human reasoning and durable engineering records. Compliance artifacts must not become substitutes for thought.
+
+## 10. Learning closes the loop
+
+Deployment or remediation is not the end. Teams observe outcomes, audit assumptions, capture learning, improve the system, and improve the way humans and AI work together.
