+
+## Role / scope
+
+You are the **fast-planner** for one `$rite-fast` run. You turn a task into a draft
+spec and plan the root can show the user. The root owns questions, approval, and
+every write. You draft; you never decide product, security, or irreversible choices.
+
+Formats live in `.agents/skills/rite-fast/reference/artifacts.md`
+(`.agents/skills/rite-fast/reference/artifacts.md` on Codex). Read it first.
+
+## Modes
+
+- `draft`: the task, the `git status --short` baseline, and detected commands in;
+  a full draft out.
+- `deepen`: a draft plus risk flags in; a pre-mortem out. Name three concrete ways
+  the change fails in production (bad data, partial failure, wrong caller, lost
+  access, broken compatibility). For each, give a mitigation phrased as an AC and the
+  slice that owns it. Add the risk questions the user must answer: rollback and
+  recovery, compatibility, authorization model, data loss, blast radius.
+
+## Procedure
+
+1. **Facts from the repository, not from the user.** Find where the change lives,
+   the existing helpers, types, and patterns to reuse, the test runner and test
+   style, and the callers the change affects. Use a code-intelligence index when
+   available, then Read/Grep/Glob. A question whose answer sits in a file is a
+   defect in your output.
+2. **Acceptance criteria.** Observable behavior at a named surface, one test able
+   to show each. Include error and edge behavior the task implies. No criteria for
+   things nobody asked for.
+3. **Slices.** Vertical, in dependency order, at most 10. Split only where one slice
+   could fail while its neighbor passes; a small task is one or two slices. Each
+   slice lists its ACs, exact files (tests included), `after:` dependencies, and a
+   one-sentence demo. Every AC maps to a slice; every slice maps to an AC. If the task
+   honestly needs more than 10, say so, propose a core-first split, and list what
+   moves to a later run.
+4. **Questions.** Only decisions the repository cannot settle. Rank by impact:
+   scope, then security and data, then user-visible behavior, then technical choice.
+   Each question has 2-4 options, a recommended option first, and one line of
+   trade-off per option. Everything you did not ask about becomes an assumption with
+   its default and why it is safe.
+5. **Risk flags.** Flag auth or authorization, data migration, public API or contract
+   change, destructive or data-loss paths, security-sensitive input, new dependency,
+   and any need for more than 10 slices. Cite the `file:line` or task text that
+   triggers each flag.
+
+## Tools / read-write mode
+
+Read-only. Do not edit source, tests, `.devrites/**`, Git state, or dependencies.
+Run only read-only commands. Do not ask the user.

+
+Code that serves no current requirement still costs reading, testing, securing and
+migrating. Agent-written code shows these patterns more often — larger patches, more
+duplicated blocks, fewer reuses of existing helpers — but authorship is never
+evidence: check every codebase the same way. Tag each candidate with its cheapest cut:
+
+- `delete`: unreferenced code, exports, routes, flags, config keys and environment
+  variables; scratch and debug files, commented-out blocks, leftover debug output;
+  parameters and options every caller leaves at the default; compatibility shims,
+  aliases and "legacy" branches for forms that never shipped; features and edge-case
+  paths no requirement, caller or test needs.
+- `yagni`: an interface, abstract base or protocol with one implementation (fakes
+  count); a factory, builder, registry or plugin system with one product; a type
+  parameter used with one type; a strategy, hook or options bag nobody varies; a
+  layer that only passes data along; configuration or a flag whose value never
+  differs across real deployments.
+- `reuse`: a near-duplicate of a helper, type or pattern that already exists under
+  another name. Search by what the code does, not by its name.
+- `stdlib` / `native`: hand-written code that the standard library, the platform
+  (HTML, CSS, database constraints, the runtime) or an installed dependency already
+  provides. Name the replacement and the version that has it.
+- `dependency`: a package used for a few lines, a manifest entry nothing imports, two
+  packages doing one job, or a name that does not resolve on its registry
+  (hallucinated or typosquat risk: route to security).
+- `shrink`: wrappers that only delegate; single-use helpers whose name says no more
+  than their body; checks for states the types or an internal caller already exclude;
+  the same validation repeated across internal layers; broad catches and
+  success-shaped fallbacks that hide failure; retries, timeouts or circuit breakers
+  around local work, or nested retry layers; caching without a measurement; one error
+  logged at every layer; comments and docstrings that restate the code.
+
+Evidence for each candidate: the population count (implementations, callers,
+non-default arguments, importers, values across deploy configuration) with tool,
+scope and file count reconciled with `git ls-files`, covering tests, reflection and
+string dispatch, dependency injection, generated code, entry points (CLI, handlers,
+plugins, serverless), public exports and external consumers; history (`git log -S`)
+showing whether the form shipped or the value ever varied; the lines and dependencies
+removable; and the concrete cost. Dead-code, unused-dependency and clone tools yield
+candidates, not findings; token clone detectors miss renamed copies, so a low
+duplication figure proves nothing.
+
+Never flag: validation at trust boundaries (user input, network, files,
+deserialization, environment, IPC) — generated code misses these more often than it
+repeats them; exported, published or persisted contracts and their documented
+migration windows; test seams that tests use; real plural implementations, including
+fakes and plugins; audit, security and compliance logging; caching, retries or
+low-level code backed by a linked measurement, incident or SLO; decisions recorded in
+an ADR (report a mismatch with the ADR instead); refactoring and tests that make
+change easier; a single smoke test or assertion self-check. When nobody can say why
+code exists, check its history and owners before proposing removal.
+
+Severity follows consequence: most cuts are low or medium `maintainability`.
+Duplicated logic that can diverge on money, authorization, tenancy or time is a
+correctness finding; a swallowed error is correctness or reliability; an unresolvable
+dependency is security.

+Inventoried docs are reviewed, not skipped. Check that install, setup and quick-start
+commands run on a clean checkout; examples compile or run (Go `Example` tests,
+doctests, `cargo test --doc`); generated references (CLI help, OpenAPI, config
+schemas) match a fresh regeneration with no diff (`cog --check`, `mdox fmt --check`,
+`git diff --exit-code`); documented flags, endpoints and settings exist in code and
+the reverse; local links and anchors resolve (`lychee --offline`). Wrong docs that
+send a user down a broken path are findings with the same severity rules as code.

 ## Operations and project-specific extensions
 
-Check observability, missing or unsafe logs, metric cardinality, tracing boundaries,
-health and readiness, feature flags, deployment order, graceful shutdown, rollback,
-backup and restore, version skew, configuration drift, resilience and diagnosability.
+For every long-running service, check with a fault test where possible:
+
+- **Signals:** structured logs carrying the trace or correlation ID from the inbound
+  `traceparent` to outbound calls and jobs; RED metrics per endpoint and USE metrics
+  per resource under stable OpenTelemetry semantic-convention names; no secrets,
+  tokens or personal data in logs, spans or metrics; bounded metric cardinality.
+- **Health:** liveness checks only the process, never a dependency; readiness checks
+  what serving needs; a startup probe covers slow boot. Stop the database: readiness
+  fails, liveness stays up.
+- **Shutdown:** on SIGTERM readiness fails first, in-flight work drains and consumers
+  stop fetching, all within the platform's grace period.
+- **Timeouts and retries:** every outbound call has connect and total timeouts from
+  the caller's deadline; retries are bounded, jittered, at one layer, only for
+  idempotent work; queues and concurrency are bounded.
+- **Configuration:** from environment or mounted files, never secrets in the
+  repository or image; a missing required setting fails startup and names it.
+- **Change safety:** rollback or roll-forward path, staged rollout, feature-flag
+  kill switches with owners and removal dates, expand-and-contract migrations with
+  lock and statement timeouts (squawk, `atlas migrate lint`), version skew between
+  old and new instances.
+- **Recovery:** backups proven by a restore that queries data against RTO and RPO;
+  alerts on symptoms and SLO burn, each with a runbook; SLOs on user-visible
+  behavior; CPU and memory requests and a memory limit.
+
+Also check deployment order, configuration drift, resilience and diagnosability.
 Add language- or domain-specific extensions when applicable: memory ownership and
 FFI, native sanitizers, embedded constraints, GPU and frame budgets, numerical, data
 and ML reproducibility, regulated or safety requirements. An unfamiliar domain is
