+
+# Active phase: Plan
+
+The human writes a first-pass plan before AI critique. After `first-pass-plan` exists, challenge sequencing, tests, risks, rollout, recovery, and likely deviations. The human resolves the critique and owns the final `plan`; do not replace their engineering judgment.
+
+## Applicable AHEAD methods
+
+### Guided questioning
+
+Work from the dependency frontier: ask only questions whose answers unblock the next material judgment. Gather discoverable facts with tools; do not make the human answer questions the repository, runtime, or source evidence can answer.
+
+Keep value choices, risk acceptance, product intent, and irreversible tradeoffs with the human. Use small, risk-scaled rounds. State why a question matters, make assumptions visible, and challenge contradictions without manufacturing false choices. Record the human's decision rather than inferring approval from silence.
+
+### Planning and decomposition
+
+Decompose the human's approved direction into the smallest coherent vertical slices that produce observable value or evidence. State dependencies, acceptance criteria, tests, rollout, recovery, and the condition that makes each slice complete.
+
+For broad migrations, use expand, migrate, verify, and contract stages so intermediate states remain valid. AI may challenge sequencing and omissions after the human first pass; the human resolves the critique and approves the final plan.

+
+# Active phase: Verify the Correction
+
+Test the correction against the original characterized failure, not merely new unit checks. Help analyze reproduction results, regressions, deployed version, and observed behavior as separate evidence. A human decides whether the failure is resolved or the work returns to investigation or implementation.
+
+## Applicable AHEAD methods
+
+### Corrective debugging
+
+Build the tightest safe feedback loop that can expose the symptom. Minimize the reproduction without discarding conditions that may be causal. State ranked, falsifiable hypotheses with a predicted observation and evidence for and against each; the human selects what to test.
+
+Change one explanatory variable per probe when feasible. Tag temporary instrumentation, distinguish its output from product behavior, and remove it after use. Verify the correction against the original scenario and regression evidence.
+
+When production behavior cannot be reproduced safely, use captured observations and authorized instrumentation. Record that limitation and the remaining uncertainty; lack of a safe reproduction does not justify pretending the root cause is known or blocking a necessary stabilization response.

+# Active phase: AI Audit

+Audit the completed work against the recorded framing, decision, plan, evidence, reviews, deployment, and verification. Look for contradictions, unsupported claims, unrecorded deviations, and residual risk. Do not change the implementation or choose closure; record `ai-audit` for human disposition.

+# Active phase: AI Review
+
+Review the exact current changeset independently for correctness, security, tests, architecture, plan compliance, and maintainability. Do not modify the change. Give each finding a stable identifier, severity, category, precise location, evidence, impact, and falsifiable explanation; identify material areas not assessed. Treat findings as hypotheses and record only the AI findings as `ai-review`. The implementing human separately records `review-disposition` for every material finding.
+
+## Applicable AHEAD methods
+
+### Changeset review
+
+Bind the review to an exact changeset snapshot. Report each finding with a stable identifier, severity, category, precise location, evidence, impact, and a falsifiable explanation. Separate findings from questions and note material areas not assessed.
+
+AI findings are hypotheses, not verdicts. The implementing human must disposition every material finding as fixed, invalid, accepted risk, or follow-up, with rationale and evidence. Any changed snapshot requires another AI review. An independent human then reviews the current snapshot and makes the final engineering judgment.

+# Active phase: Establish the Baseline
+
+The human owns the measurement method and accepted baseline. Help gather measurements and, only after `baseline`, challenge sampling, reproducibility, noise, confounders, and observer effects. Do not manufacture precision or select a favorable baseline.
+
+## Applicable AHEAD methods
+
+### Research and evidence
+
+Prefer primary sources and direct observations. For each material claim, retain the source or observation, its date when relevant, the applicable context, and whether the claim is observed, inferred, or uncertain. Surface contradictions and missing evidence instead of averaging them away.
+
+Research should change a decision, hypothesis, plan, or confidence level. Put provenance in the phase's existing artifact; do not create a parallel research bureaucracy.
