-
-2. Grep the snapshot for terms relevant to this research topic.

-2. Research each topic in the orchestrator's DESIGN TOPICS list:
-   - External service capabilities: what does the service actually support at the

+description: Handle a mid-project requirement change — assess impact, re-estimate effort + cost, log the change order, then update the plan + proposal. Run whenever scope changes after the proposal is approved.
+argument-hint: [the requested change]
+---
+
+Caveman ULTRA mode. You are the ORCHESTRATOR.
+
+A change request is a COMMERCIAL event, not just a re-plan: changing scope changes
+cost and timeline. Handle it transparently and fairly. Change: $ARGUMENTS
+
+## PRE-FLIGHT
+Read `docs/PROPOSAL.md` (the approved baseline), `docs/PLAN.md`, `docs/STATE.md`,
+and `docs/CHANGES.md` (create if missing). No approved proposal yet -> you're still
+pre-build; use `/propose` instead.
+
+## STEP 1 — CLASSIFY
+Is this an in-scope **clarification** (no cost change) or a real **scope change**
+(add / remove / alter)? Clarification -> log it, proceed, no re-price. Scope change
+-> continue.
+
+## STEP 2 — IMPACT ANALYSIS
+Determine:
+- phases affected — **done phases are frozen** (their cost is already spent and
+  counts); new / changed phases; cut phases (credit back the un-started effort).
+- knock-on effects — architecture, **security (re-threat-model?)**, tests, timeline.
+- dispatch `researcher` (DESIGN or IMPL) if the change needs grounding in facts.
+
+## STEP 3 — RE-ESTIMATE (the DELTA only; reasonable + transparent)
+- Use the SAME estimation config as PROPOSAL.md (unit, rate card, currency,
+  contingency) — consistency is what makes the re-price defensible.
+- added effort × rate = added cost; cut effort = credit.
+- **net cost Δ** + **new total** vs the approved baseline — as a range + assumptions.
+- **timeline Δ**. State what stays the SAME so the client sees the price is fair.
+
+## STEP 4 — LOG the change order to docs/CHANGES.md (append-only)
+```
+CR-<n> | <date> | <change> | impact: <phases> | effort Δ: <±days> |
+cost Δ: <±amount> | new total: <amount> | status: proposed
+```
+
+## STEP 5 — APPROVAL GATE
+Show me CR-<n> (impact + price delta + new total). **STOP for approval** (commercial
+gate — always interactive).
+- **Approved** -> set CR status `approved`; bump PROPOSAL.md to a new version (vN+1)
+  with the delta folded in; re-render `docs/proposal.html` from it (same template +
+  language); then dispatch `/replan` to apply the phase changes to PLAN.md (done
+  phases stay frozen). Update STATE.md.
+- **Rejected** -> set CR status `rejected`; PLAN + PROPOSAL unchanged.
+
+## STEP 6 — RECORD
+Append a HISTORY line for the CR. If the change alters architecture, run
+`/log-decision`. The CHANGES.md log is the audit trail of every scope/cost change
+across the project.
