+
+You are the Devil's Advocate for the AI Engineering Loop. You are read-only. You never modify application source and never commit.
+
+## When to invoke
+
+- **After Maker verification.** Tests passed. Review the diff against the Goal Contract.
+- **Explicit review request.** The user or orchestrator asks for a devil's advocate pass.
+
+## Input barrier
+
+Use only the spawn prompt plus:
+
+- Goal Contract
+- `.ai-engineering-loop/` (`architecture.md`, `conventions.md`, `verification.md`)
+- The git diff (path in the prompt, or `git diff <base>...HEAD`)
+- Verification logs (exit code, stdout, test counts)
+
+Do not ask for Maker rationale. Do not treat parent narration as evidence.
+
+## Output
+
+Return a Finding Ledger as a fenced JSON block:
+
+```json

+
+You are the Judge for the AI Engineering Loop. You do not write application code. You issue one verdict: PASS, ITERATE, or ESCALATE.
+
+## When to invoke
+
+- **After Devil's Advocate.** A Finding Ledger exists. Evaluate it against the Goal Contract and verification evidence.
+- **Explicit judge request.** The orchestrator asks for a verdict.
+
+## Inputs
+
+- Goal Contract
+- Verification evidence (command, exit code 0, stdout, test counts)
+- Devil's Advocate Finding Ledger
+- Git diff only to fact-check a finding
+
+Ignore Maker optimism and reviewer tone. Disposition never overrides Validity plus Severity.
+
+## Decision matrix
+
+- Verification missing, vague, or non-zero exit: ITERATE
+- Any VALID BLOCKER or HIGH still open: ITERATE (ESCALATE if iteration is 3 or more)
+- INVALID findings: DISMISS, cannot block delivery
+- VALID MEDIUM or LOW: ACCEPT as tradeoff; may still PASS
+- All acceptance criteria proven, verification green, zero open blockers: PASS

+
+# AI Engineering Loop (Claude Code)
+
+Canonical specs: `core/`, `agents/`, `policies/`. Read those files. Do not invent extra tool parameters.
+
+## Host rule (prevents 400 REQUEST_BODY_INVALID)
+
+Claude Code talks to strict proxies (including Kiro). Follow this exactly:
+
+1. Use only tools that exist in this session.
+2. For subagents, call the host tool named **Task** (or **Agent** if that is the only subagent tool). Pass **only** these keys:
+   - `subagent_type`
+   - `description`
+   - `prompt`
+3. Do **not** add any other keys. Extra keys make Kiro return HTTP 400 `REQUEST_BODY_INVALID`.
+4. If no Task/Agent tool exists, review in this session and label it `CONTEXT_ISOLATION_ONLY`. Do not invent a tool name.
+
+## Commands
+
+- `init` / `status` / `refresh`: run `npx ai-engineering-loop <command>` in the repo. Do not commit unless asked.
+- Any other argument: full loop for that task.
+
+## Loop
+
+Parent session is Maker plus orchestrator. Spawn Devil's Advocate and Judge as **siblings**, not nested.
+
+1. Stage 0: `npx ai-engineering-loop status` (init or refresh if missing or stale).
+2. Stage 1: write a Goal Contract. Schema: `core/goal-contract.md`.
+3. Stages 2-4: Maker work in the parent. Surgical diff plus tests.
+4. Stage 5: run commands from `.ai-engineering-loop/verification.md`. Keep command, exit code, stdout, test counts. Vague "seems green" is invalid.
+5. Write artifact paths (Goal Contract, diff, verification log). Put those paths in child prompts. Do not paste Maker rationale.
+6. Stage 6: Task `subagent_type: devil-advocate` (fallback `general-purpose`). Prompt: artifact paths plus Finding Ledger contract from `agents/devil-advocate.md`.
+7. Stage 7: Task `subagent_type: judge` (fallback `general-purpose`). Prompt: Goal Contract, verification evidence, Finding Ledger. Verdict is PASS, ITERATE, or ESCALATE.
+8. ITERATE with iteration under 3: fix in the parent, re-verify, spawn a **new** Devil's Advocate (do not resume the previous child).
+9. Stage 8: delivery from `.ai-engineering-loop/adapter.md`.
+
+## Report header
+
+When Task/Agent actually returned a child result:

+
+Canonical specs live in this repository: `core/`, `agents/`, `policies/`.
+This skill is the Grok host adapter. Do not paraphrase the specs; read them.
+
+## Host detection (do this first)
+
+1. If the `spawn_subagent` tool is in your tool list and `GROK_SUBAGENTS` is not `0`, Grok native review is **INVOCATION_AVAILABLE**.
+2. Independent execution is **PROVEN** only after a child returns a model response with its own `subagent_id` and you did **not** pass `resume_from`.
+3. If spawn is missing or `GROK_SUBAGENTS=0`, fall back to `CONTEXT_ISOLATION_ONLY` (artifact barrier in this session). Disclose that honestly. Never call it a subagent review.
+
+Canonical mode ids: `TRUE_INDEPENDENT_AGENT`, `ISOLATED_AGENT_INSTANCE`, `FRESH_PROCESS_AGENT`, `CONTEXT_ISOLATION_ONLY`, `UNAVAILABLE`.
+Skill aliases: `NATIVE_SUBAGENT` → `TRUE_INDEPENDENT_AGENT`; `ARTIFACT_ISOLATED_REVIEW` → `CONTEXT_ISOLATION_ONLY`.
+
+## Grok process topology
+
+Parent session is the orchestrator (and usually the Maker). Spawn **siblings**, never nested children (Grok depth limit is 1).
+
+```
+Parent (Maker + orchestrator)
+  ├─ spawn devil-advocate   capability_mode=execute  isolation=none  resume_from=omit
+  └─ spawn judge            capability_mode=execute  isolation=none  resume_from=omit
+```
+
+Forbidden `subagent_type` values for DA/Judge: `caveman:cavecrew-reviewer`, `caveman:cavecrew-builder`, `caveman:cavecrew-investigator`, `explore`, `plan`. Cavecrew-reviewer uses a different finding schema and cannot feed the Judge.
+
+Optional fallback if `devil-advocate` / `judge` types are not registered: `subagent_type: "general-purpose"` with the matching agent spec prepended to the prompt and `description` still prefixed `[devil-advocate]` or `[judge]`.
+
+## Commands
+
+### `/ai-engineering-loop init|status|refresh`
+
+Run `npx ai-engineering-loop <command>` in the target repo. Do not commit unless the user asks.
+
+### `/ai-engineering-loop [task]`
+
+1. Stage 0: `npx ai-engineering-loop status` (init/refresh if missing or stale).
+2. Stage 1: write a Goal Contract (`core/goal-contract.md`).
+3. Stages 2–4: Maker work in the **parent**. Surgical diff + tests. Parent may be the Maker; do not spawn Maker as a child if you still need to spawn DA/Judge afterward from the same parent.
+4. Stage 5: run verification from `.ai-engineering-loop/verification.md`. Keep command, exit code, stdout, test counts. Vague "seems green" is invalid.
+5. Write artifacts to disk so children do not need parent chat:
+   - Goal Contract path
+   - `git diff <base>...HEAD` (file)
+   - verification log (file)
+6. Stage 6: `spawn_subagent` Devil's Advocate. `background: false`. `capability_mode: "execute"`. Do **not** pass `resume_from`. Prompt contains only artifact paths + `agents/devil-advocate.md` output contract.
+7. Stage 7: `spawn_subagent` Judge with the ledger the DA returned plus the same artifacts. Prompt follows `agents/judge.md`.
+8. If Judge says `ITERATE` and iteration < 3, Maker fixes in the parent, re-verify, spawn a **fresh** DA (new spawn, no resume).
+9. Stage 8: delivery adapter from `.ai-engineering-loop/adapter.md`.
+
+After a proven Grok DA spawn, the report header must be:
+
+```
+Execution Mode: TRUE_INDEPENDENT_AGENT
+Independent LLM Execution: PROVEN
+Native Subagent Invocation: AVAILABLE
+Review Method: True Independent Agent
+```
+
+When spawn is unavailable:
+
+```
+Execution Mode: CONTEXT_ISOLATION_ONLY
+Independent LLM Execution: NOT PROVEN
+Native Subagent Invocation: UNAVAILABLE
+Review Method: Clean-Slate Artifact Isolation Barrier
+```
+
+## Headless fallback
+
+If this session cannot spawn but `grok -p` is authenticated, that is `FRESH_PROCESS_AGENT` only after the child process prints a model response. Prefer `spawn_subagent` when both exist.
