+## dynamic-build — author and run a build workflow
+
+This command instructs you to construct and run a Claude Code dynamic Workflow that implements, reviews, and verifies one ticket or a full wave of tickets, reusing devflow's existing agents via `agentType`.
+
+{agent_roster()}
+
+{agent_caveats()}
+
+---
+
+**Requires:** ticket or task description; optional plan document and acceptance criteria from `/devflow:dynamic-plan`
+**Produces:** implemented and reviewed branch per ticket; wave run report at `.devflow/docs/waves/\{slug\}/\{ts\}/wave-report.md`
+
+---
+
+### Preflight checks
+
+Before authoring, verify:
+
+1. **Workflow tool available:** if the `Workflow` tool is not in your available tools, STOP and tell the user: "The Workflow tool is not available in this session. dynamic-build requires Claude Code's dynamic workflow runtime."
+2. **`agentType` support:** confirmed available (spike F5, 2026-06-11). If spawned agents return no results, check that devflow is installed (`devflow init` has been run).
+3. **GitHub paths:** if the input is a GitHub issue URL, `gh` CLI must be authenticated. If not authenticated, note it and fall back to the issue text the user provided.
+4. **No-remote path:** if the repo has no remote, skip GitHub-dependent steps (issue reading, PR creation) and proceed with local branch operations only.
+
+---
+
+### Pre-authoring setup
+
+Before you write the workflow script:
+
+**0. Resolve compliance context**
+
+{compliance_gate()}
+Reuse this result for every ticket in the wave.
+
+When authoring the workflow script, include the resolved value as a constant: `COMPLIANCE = COMPLIANCE_SKILL_INSTALLED ? "enabled" : "(none)"`. Pass `COMPLIANCE: \{COMPLIANCE\}` to Git agent spawns (setup-task and branch-creation). When compliance-gated (`COMPLIANCE_SKILL_INSTALLED === true`), branch names follow the `.devflow/conventions.md` Branch Naming convention if that file exists; degrade gracefully if absent.
+
+**1. Apply decisions context**
+
+Apply the `devflow:apply-decisions` algorithm to the DECISIONS_CONTEXT loaded per the preamble above: scan the index, Read relevant entries, note the verbatim ADR/PF IDs you will inject into Code agent and Evaluate agent prompts.
+
+**2. Read budget**
+
+Note the `budget` value from the Workflow tool context (or default to "medium" if not provided). This governs Review agent roster size and verification vote count.
+
+**3. Detect mode: SINGLE or WAVE**
+
+- **SINGLE mode:** input is one ticket, one issue, one task description, or one plan document
+- **WAVE mode:** input is a set of GitHub issues (wave labels, milestone, issue list), or the user says "wave" / "all tickets in wave N"
+
+When ambiguous, ask the user before authoring: "Is this a single ticket or a wave of tickets?"
+
+**4. Resolve plan and acceptance criteria**
+
+Check for (in priority order):
+- A plan document passed as input (path or inline)
+- A GitHub issue body (fetch via `gh issue view <number>`)
+- The current working context (recent `/devflow:dynamic-plan` output)
+- An in-context task description
+
+Extract or note:
+- Implementation plan (for Code agent prompt and Evaluate agent)
+- Acceptance criteria and test plan (for Gate 2)
+
+If none found: build proceeds Gate-1-only (Gate 2 skipped with a note). Never refuse to build; never fabricate criteria.
+
+**5. Resolve tracking-issue number (optional)**
+
+Check, in priority order:
+- An explicit issue number or GitHub issue URL in the user's input (e.g., `#42`, `42`, or `https://github.com/…/issues/42`)
+- The tracking-issue reference in the ticket set's `tracking-issue.md` (written by `/devflow:dynamic-tickets` at `.devflow/docs/tickets/\{slug\}/\{ts\}/tracking-issue.md`)
+- Otherwise: none
+
+If a number is found, record it as the command-level `ISSUE_NUMBER` and pass it as `issueNumber: <number>` when invoking the workflow (the Code agent threads it through as `ISSUE_NUMBER`). If none is found, pass nothing — `ISSUE_NUMBER` defaults to `"(none)"` in the workflow script.

+### WAVE mode — additional structure
+
+When WAVE mode is detected, author a workflow that wraps the single-ticket engine with the wave loop:
+
+{wave_loop()}
+
+{branch_merge_model()}
+
+{merge_doctrine()}
+
+{escalation_model()}
+
+**Wave workflow structure (author after the SINGLE engine blocks above):**
+
+The wave workflow uses the same phases as SINGLE but wraps them in a wave loop. The integration branch is `wave/<initiative>` — the initiative slug, referenced below as `\{slug\}` — (or the user's current branch). Per-ticket branches are `ticket/<slug>`. The Git agent manages worktrees for parallel-eligible tickets. After every merge: Validate agent (build + test). Escalations accumulate in a list; the final report lists all of them.
+
+Wave skeleton — compact reference (see `wave_loop()` doctrine for full semantics):
+
+```js
+// Wave round loop: Design agent reader → per-ticket try/catch → cascade quarantine via next reader
+const MAX_ROUNDS = Math.max(10, remainingTickets.length * 2 + 5);  // heuristic; always finite
+const waveState = { quarantined: [], round: 0 };

+### After the workflow returns — batch decisions at the command boundary (F4)
+
+A workflow cannot pause mid-run. After the build/wave workflow returns, you (the main model) surface anything that needs a human decision — all at once:
+
+1. Read the wave report (`.devflow/docs/waves/\{slug\}/\{ts\}/wave-report.md`) for its **escalations** (quarantined/blocked tickets and why), and read any `DECISIONS-NEEDED.md` left by a prior `/devflow:dynamic-plan` run for this initiative.
+2. **Post wave-report as tracking-issue comment** (WAVE mode only — skip this step entirely in SINGLE mode; SINGLE runs produce no wave report): In WAVE mode, if a tracking-issue number was resolved in Pre-authoring step 5 (`ISSUE_NUMBER` is not `(none)`) AND `.devflow/docs/waves/\{slug\}/\{ts\}/wave-report.md` exists, define `WAVE_ID` as the timestamped wave directory slug (the `\{ts\}` component, e.g. `2026-08-20_1730`), then spawn:
+   ```
+   Agent(subagent_type="Git"):
+   "OPERATION: post-wave-report
+   TRACKING_ISSUE: \{ISSUE_NUMBER\}
+   WAVE_REPORT_PATH: .devflow/docs/waves/\{slug\}/\{ts\}/wave-report.md
+   WAVE_ID: \{WAVE_ID\}
+   WORKTREE_PATH: \{integration worktree root, when the wave ran in a linked worktree; omit if cwd\}"
+   ```
+   The Git agent deduplicates via marker `<!-- devflow:wave-report wave:\{WAVE_ID\} -->` — skips if already present. On API failure it degrades gracefully (`TRACEABILITY: DEGRADED (\{reason\})`) and continues — never blocks the post-wave step. This comment is the evidence surface for the PR-less integration-branch path; no other PR machinery is invented.
+
+   In WAVE mode, if no tracking-issue number was resolved in Pre-authoring step 5: state `TRACEABILITY: DEGRADED (no tracking issue for this run)` in the run summary and skip — never skip silently.
+3. Surface ALL of them — escalations AND open decisions — to the user in ONE batched `AskUserQuestion` (never one-at-a-time). `_wave.mds`'s escalation model already quarantines-and-continues; this batches the surfacing so the user answers everything in a single pass.
+4. If `~/.devflow/preference-profile.md` was absent, note in your summary: "no preference profile found — N decisions surfaced that a profile might have auto-resolved; consider `/devflow:dynamic-profile`."
+
+Do NOT ask questions mid-workflow — that is impossible (F4). The workflow only WRITES the report; you read it and ask.

+### Maintenance note
+
+This recipe encodes the current `/implement` + `/code-review` + `/resolve` orchestration shape as of the authoring date (2026-06-12). When those base commands change their orchestration, update this recipe to match. No tooling detects drift — by design (ADR-008 Iron Rule). The reminder lives in the design doc §16.
