 | `check candidate <slug>` | Validate the strict manifest and compute the content-bound project-candidate identity. Exits `3` when the manifest omits a path the feature's `WIP(<slug>):` checkpoint commits changed (net from the feature base to HEAD). Also exits `3` with `unattributed root edit: <paths>` while the feature's `tree-baseline.json` tripwire flags a product path (ADR-0038; see `dispatch`). |
 | `check readiness <slug>` | Check target-Phase files, open human gates from Clarify onward, the `tasks.md` slice graph when that artifact is required, canonical `AC-###` presence in `tasks.md`/`test-plan.md` when those artifacts are required, and the current stable Build-input binding when applicable. Leaving Vet with a `Run at` column, a slice whose `Files likely touched`/`Writer allowlist` names a dependency manifest or lockfile needs a `dependency-dry-run SLICE-###` row at `vet` with a passing transcript. Leaving Vet, every slice `state.md` does not check built (a deferred `Satisfies: none` slice excepted) must also pass the Build-entry `check slice` contract; each failure prints one `invariant: slice-check:` line naming the slice and its exact `check slice` reason, to fix in `/rite-plan` before READY. |

Writes one candidate-bound transcript per row under `references/gates/preflight-*/`; a row passes on exit 0. A `pre-dispatch` row whose newest transcript passed is kept, not re-run: it is a pre-edit baseline, so a re-dispatch never runs it against the slice's own edits; changing its command or cwd retires the pass. Exit `3` on any failure or an invalid `Run at` value. |
 | `check seal <slug>` | Check files required by target Phase `seal`, open human gates, the `tasks.md` slice graph, canonical `AC-###` presence when `tasks.md`/`test-plan.md` are required, the stable Build-input binding, and exact candidate bindings. `check readiness` and `check seal` also block a `scripts/` test driver that a tasks.md Writer allowlist plans or touched-files.md lists when no gates.md `CHECK` runs it and no `Driver waiver: <path> — DEC-### <reason>` line cites a recorded decision; waived drivers print as `note: unexecuted driver (waived by DEC-###): <path>` lines, on pass or block. |

With `--slug` and a running lease, the lease's not-yet-landed slices hold cap slots and paths, slices it names are never picked, and only new picks print. |
