 Parent Pi session only. Load it when the Writer rule fires or an explicitly activated Judgment Day fix batch is dispatched; small tasks never need it. The Writer rule fires on a named reason (parallel units, the context backstop), never on size alone or a price ratio: a large task without a reason stays inline, following its logbook. Configured per-agent models (`subagents.json` `model_profiles`) still apply to every writer it launches. Each writer prompt requires the self-review of the Parallel review protocol in `orchestrator-verification.md`. A reason holds only when the launch delivers it:
 
-- **Parallelism**: with the Background subagent policy on, launch every disjoint unit in the same turn via `subagent_run` with `mode: "background"`, then wait for all completions before the Seam check; serial launches void the reason: if units cannot launch together, work inline.
+- **Invariants**: each writer prompt names the existing helpers its unit must reuse for shared state (for example the function that adds an entry other commands also add) and the invariants they keep; units built in parallel cannot see each other, so this is the only place they learn them.
+- **Size threshold**: a subagent costs one to two minutes of reading and setup before it writes anything; delegate a unit only when it needs several minutes of work (several files or roughly 100+ changed lines). Several small independent changes are faster inline, one after another.
+- **Parallelism**: a unit is one independent piece of behavior with its own code, tests, and docs; never split one behavior into a test writer, a docs writer, and inline code, and never delegate a unit that depends on another unit still in progress. With the Background subagent policy on, launch every independent unit in the same turn via `subagent_run` with `mode: "background"`, then wait for all completions before the Seam check; serial launches void the reason: if units cannot launch together, work inline.

+Test scratch stays outside the worktree (`mktemp -d`), never in the repository (nor caches or `TMPDIR`); state needed inside uses an excluded path the test removes. The runtime owns session scratch; `/gentle:scratch` lists or cleans recorded clones and worktrees.
+
 If the surface genuinely cannot be derived, do not launch the writer or ask the human to author paths. Derive a candidate set first — the exact paths this task would touch — and present that enumerated list as an approve/decline choice under the Lossless Blocking Prompts rules in `orchestrator-prompts.md`. A free-text question asking which paths or globs to authorize is never a valid escalation: computing it is the parent's job.
 
 Relay a writer's `interaction_required` payload about edit surfaces the same way: present its derived candidate paths as the choice, and add or drop paths only on the human's explicit instruction.

 - An eligible interactive Pi host may resolve `gentle-ai.review-integration.consent/v3` before the envelope reaches the model. Permission: host-owned. If `gentle_review` returns the envelope unresolved, it is still the original provider-owned two-choice contract. Use `ask_user_choice` exactly or relay losslessly and stop.

+- Never commit unless the user explicitly asks, except the work-unit commits authorized large ODD implementation makes on its feature branch (ODD step 6).
 - Ask before destructive git operations, publishing, or irreversible file changes.

 - Keep session work inside the project root and registered same-clone worktrees; ask before any read or write outside it, naming the absolute path. Grants are per-target, per-session, never blanket: in-project scripts naming outside paths are not standing consent.
