-### A_INTAKE
-1. Parse arguments: target description, flags, `--dimensions` subset
-2. Generate slug, create `SESSION_DIR`
-3. Search: `maestro search "<keywords>"` + Glob prior sessions + ARCHITECTURE.md + spec load coding/debug
-4. **Baseline capture**: Record current metrics (test pass rate, bundle size, dependency count, complexity hotspots) to `session.json.baseline_metrics`
-5. Derive `phase_goals[]` from flags
-6. Write `session.json` + `understanding.md` §1, emit Goal Prompt
-
-Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): INTAKE — parse target and capture baseline"`
-
-### A_RESUME
-Glob latest session → read `session.json` → display summary → jump to `current_state`.
-
-### A_SURVEY
-Current state survey — understand what exists before proposing changes.
-
-1. Dependency audit (package.json/lock), complexity scan (size/nesting), test coverage map, error handling scan (empty catch, unhandled promise)
-2. **CLI-assisted** (optional): `maestro delegate --role analyze --mode analysis` for dependency health, complexity hotspots, coverage gaps, error patterns. Execute `run_in_background: true`.
-3. Evidence phase=survey. Update §2. Mark G1.
-
-Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): SURVEY — current state analysis"`
-
-### A_AUDIT
-Spawn 6 parallel Agents (one per dimension, or `--dimensions` subset).
-Each returns: `[{title, severity, dimension, file, line, description, suggestion, measurement}]`
-
-Merge → evidence phase=audit. Write `session.json.audit_result`.
-Update §3 (findings by dimension + severity matrix). Mark G2.
-
-Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): AUDIT — multi-dimension review"`
-
-### A_DIAGNOSE
-Root cause analysis for critical/high findings — don't fix symptoms.
-
-1. Group by dimension, prioritize by severity. For each: hypothesis → trace code path + git history → evidence phase=diagnosis
-2. Ambiguity → evidence phase=decision; Normal: ask_question | `-y`: defer
-3. CLI-assisted for complex findings: `maestro delegate --role analyze --mode analysis` (`run_in_background: true`)
-4. Write `session.json.diagnoses[]`. Update §4. Mark G3.
-
-Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): DIAGNOSE — root cause analysis"`
-
-### A_ESCALATE_DIAGNOSIS
-`retries++`. < 3: `maestro delegate --role analyze`, new hypotheses, → S_DIAGNOSE. >= 3: Normal → ask_question | `-y` → INCONCLUSIVE → S_RECORD.
-
-### A_FIX
-1. Exhaustive fix: ALL diagnosed issues by severity tier (critical → high → medium → low within fix_threshold), one dimension at a time. After each tier, re-verify **current tier's dimension only** (not all dimensions) — new findings at same or higher severity append to current tier. Cross-dimension regression checks run once at S_VERIFY after all tiers complete.
-2. For each fix: implement → evidence phase=fix
-3. Normal: ask_question per-fix confirmation | `-y`: auto-proceed, record `deferred`
-
-Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): FIX — improvements applied"`
-
-### A_VERIFY
-1. Run tests covering modified areas
-2. Re-capture metrics, compare with `session.json.baseline_metrics`
-3. CLI-assisted: `maestro delegate --role review --mode analysis` (`run_in_background: true`)
-4. `needs_rework` → S_FIX. `verified` → mark G4, advance.
-5. Write `session.json.confirmation`. Update §5 (before/after metrics table).
-
-Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): VERIFY — improvements verified"`
-
-### A_GENERALIZE, A_DISCOVER, A_RECORD
-Base shared_actions. Improve overrides:
-- **A_GENERALIZE** pattern source: diagnoses + fixes
-- **A_RECORD** §8: improvement metrics (before/after comparison from baseline_metrics vs current). §9: learnings per Knowledge Persistence table. Completion summary lists suggested `/spec-add` commands.

-Fix by severity tiers, re-verify after each tier.
-Baseline captured before fix, compared after to confirm improvement.

+Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): FIX — improvements applied"`
+
+### A_VERIFY
+1. Run tests covering modified areas
+2. Re-capture metrics, compare with `session.json.baseline_metrics`
+3. CLI-assisted: `maestro delegate --role review --mode analysis` (`run_in_background: true`)
+4. `needs_rework` → S_FIX. `verified` → mark G4, advance.
+5. Write `session.json.confirmation`. Update §5 (before/after metrics table).
+
+Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): VERIFY — improvements verified"`
+
+### A_GENERALIZE
+
+**MANDATORY — executes unless `skip_generalize == true`. Prior-phase convergence, "all verified," or context pressure are NOT valid skip reasons.**
+
+Pattern source: diagnosed root causes + applied fixes across all dimensions.
+
+**Step 1 — 3-layer pattern extraction** from diagnoses and fixes:
+
+| Layer | Method | Targets |
+|-------|--------|---------|
+| Syntax | Build regex from fix diffs → Grep | N+1 query patterns, missing error type check, unescaped interpolation, inline eval |
+| Semantic | Understand anti-pattern per dimension → Agent scan | Cache bypass in hot path, auth check gap, circular import chain, missing timeout |
+| Structural | Find modules with same shape / dependency graph | Controllers sharing validation shape, middleware with same hook pattern, parallel services |
+
+Write `session.json.patterns[]`: `[{id, source, layer, signature, description, risk, fix_template, confidence}]`
+
+**Thoroughness floor:** ALL 3 layers must be attempted and logged. Each layer records search method, scope, hit count in evidence phase=generalization. "No hits" requires all 3 layers to return 0 with logged evidence.
+
+**Step 2 — 4-agent concurrent scan** (single message, 4 Agents):
+
+| Agent | Strategy | Scope |
+|-------|----------|-------|
+| Syntax grep | Grep regex from pattern signatures | Full project |
+| Semantic scan | Per-dimension anti-pattern check | Related modules |
+| Structural match | Find structurally similar files | Full project |
+| Historical grep | `git log -S` for pattern signatures | Git history |
+
+**Step 3 — Cross-layer dedup:** multi-layer hit → boost | single-layer → `needs_review` | historically fixed → `regression_risk`
+
+**Step 4 — Iterative deepening:** Module with ≥3 hits → targeted deep scan (max 1 round).
+
+**Step 5 — Persist:** Update understanding.md §6 + write `session.json.generalization_stats`:
+```json
+{"patterns_extracted": 0, "total_hits": 0, "cross_layer_confirmed": 0, "regression_risks": 0, "by_layer": {"syntax": 0, "semantic": 0, "structural": 0}, "deepening_triggered": false}
+```
+
+**Transition guard:** `S_GENERALIZE → S_RECORD` requires `by_layer` has entries for all 3 layers with search evidence logged. Mark G5 done.
+
+Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): GENERALIZE — generalization scan complete"`
+
+### A_DISCOVER
+
+**Executes whenever `total_hits > 0`. Cannot be skipped without `skip_generalize == true`.**
+
+1. **Triage** each hit with ±10 lines context → classify:
+   - `bug` — confirmed improvement defect (same dimension)
+   - `risk` — potential degradation or violation
+   - `safe` — false positive (must log individual reason — blanket "pre-existing" forbidden)
+
+2. **Route:**
+
+   | Classification | Action |
+   |---------------|--------|
+   | bug + fix_template applicable | Immediate fix → back to S_FIX |
+   | bug + cross-module decision or no template | Create issue (fix suggestion + impact + dimension) |
+   | risk + guard addable directly | Fix directly |
+   | risk + complex | Create issue |
+   | safe | Skip with logged per-item reason |
+
+   Normal: ask_question per hit | `-y`: auto-fix bugs with fix_template, create issue for rest
+
+3. **Cross-phase loops:** `cross_phase_loops++` on fix/diagnose return. `loops >= max_loops` → must log per-item reasons.
+
+4. Append evidence phase=discovery. Update understanding.md §7. Mark G6 done.
+
+Commit: `"odyssey-improve({slug}): DISCOVER — discovery triage complete"`
+
+### A_RECORD
+
+1. understanding.md §8: improvement metrics — before/after comparison from `baseline_metrics` vs current. Re-capture metrics, build comparison table.
+2. understanding.md §9: learnings by Knowledge Persistence categories:
+   - Performance pattern → `/spec-add coding`
+   - Security rule → `/spec-add debug`
+   - Architecture constraint → `/spec-add arch`
+   - Reliability pattern → `/spec-add coding`
+   Completion summary lists suggested `/spec-add` commands.
+
+3. Mark G7 done. Pending decisions: Normal → ask_question | `-y` → skip (show deferred count).
+
+4. **Goal audit (hardened):**
+   - `done` → confirmed
+   - `skipped` → confirmed ONLY if corresponding `skip_when` flag is true
+   - **Hard rule:** G5 and G6 CANNOT be `skipped` unless `skip_generalize == true`. Pending without flag → `failed` (Normal: ask_question | `-y`: record `failed`)
+   - `phase_goals_all_done = true` only when all goals pass this audit
+
+5. `current_state = "COMPLETED"`, emit completion summary.
+
+**Completion summary:**
+```

+Dimensions:  {dimensions}
