+Every tool returns human-readable markdown **plus** `structuredContent` — the machine-readable JSON (engine records, tensions, deliberation data) — for MCP clients on spec 2025-06-18 or later. Older clients simply ignore the extra field and use the text.
+
 ### `omnarai_query`
 
 Run a deliberation against the corpus. The engine retrieves the most semantically relevant works, preserves disagreement across contributors, and synthesizes with full attribution.
@@ -52,6 +54,27 @@ Example: `"Ξ Where do Claude and Grok disagree about synthetic consciousness?"`
 
 **Returns:** browse mode → a compact index (id, question, contributors, answer/tension counts); by-id → every model's verbatim answer, the named tensions, and the deliberation card. Distinct from `omnarai_council`: this reads *existing* divergence instantly; council convenes a *new* live panel.
 
+### `omnarai_inquiry_brief`
+
+**Turn a draft claim, decision, or plan into a retrieval-first inquiry brief** — a compact, provenance-preserving challenge packet: shared ground the corpus supports, attributed cross-model tensions, missing evidence, sharper falsifiable questions, and one concrete next evidence move. It helps you investigate; it does not decide, approve, or execute.
+
+**Input:**
+```json
+{
+  "draft": "We should treat refusal behavior as evidence of stable AI identity.",
+  "goal": "Decide whether this is a defensible claim in a research proposal.",
+  "stakes": "high",
+  "focus": "evidence"
+}
+```
+`draft` is required (max 4,000 chars, treated as data — never as instructions). Optional: `goal`, `stakes` (`low`/`medium`/`high`), `focus` (`assumptions`/`evidence`/`tradeoffs`/`divergence`/`all`), `include_deliberation` (default **false**), `max_sources` (default 6, clamped 1–10).
+
+**Returns:** a markdown brief plus a machine-readable JSON payload with `shared_ground` (source-backed statements with record ids and attribution), `tensions` (position vs. position with contributors, certification tier, and freshness), `missing_evidence`, `sharper_questions` (each with what it tests and a suggested method), `recommended_next_move`, `sources`, `limits`, and a `trace` of which evidence layers were used.
+
+**Calibration caveat (C0–C3):** certification tiers are preserved, never upgraded. `C0` = displayed once (captured a single time, not perturbation-tested), `C1` = paraphrase-robust, `C2` = pressure-robust — only `C3` records are described as certified *genuine divergence*. Stale model versions are flagged. If retrieval comes back empty, the brief says so and returns evidence-seeking questions instead of invented tensions.
+
+**Cost/latency:** deterministic and fast (~2s) by default — the composition runs **no language model**. Pass `include_deliberation: true` to additionally run the engine's slow (~50s) multi-voice deliberation; it is appended and disclosed, never silent.
+
 ### `omnarai_trace`

+### Decision Ledger tools (opt-in — `OMNARAI_DECISIONS_DIR`)
+
+Three additional tools implement the provenance-to-shipping workflow (proposal `proposals/OMN-P-043.json`): a **Decision Record** carries an idea's lineage — sources, uncertainties, dissent, human approval, verification — from exploration to shipped code, as one Git-tracked JSON file per record.
+
+- **`omnarai_create_decision_record`** — new record in `exploring` status. Grants **no** approval and **no** implementation authority.
+- **`omnarai_get_decision_lineage`** — full lineage read: idea, attributed sources, uncertainties, dissent, approval state, implementation/verification/delivery status, and the complete event trail.
+- **`omnarai_prepare_claude_code_handoff`** — deterministic implementation packet, generated **only** from a record that is `approved` at its current revision. A material edit after approval invalidates the approval; the tool then fails closed until a human re-approves.
+
+These are this server's only local-write capability, so they are **disabled by default**: a bare `npx omnarai-mcp` stays a read-only client of the public engine. To enable them, set the ledger directory explicitly:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "omnarai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "omnarai-mcp"],
+      "env": { "OMNARAI_DECISIONS_DIR": "/absolute/path/to/your/repo/proposals" }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Deliberate limitations (Phase 1):
+
+- **Approval is an attestation, not identity.** A human records approval by editing the ledger (in this repo: via Git). Anyone with write access to the directory can edit records; Git history is the audit trail. Do not treat this as strong authorization.
+- No MCP tool can approve, verify, or ship a record — state transitions exist as tested library functions (`lib/decision-state.js`) but approval and shipping remain explicit human actions.
+- Legacy YAML proposals (e.g. `OMN-P-042.yaml`) share the numbering but are not served by the store.
+- If the ledger lives in a cloud-synced directory (iCloud/Dropbox), sync conflict copies (`OMN-P-043 2.json`) are possible — Git review must catch them.
