## EXECUTION CONTRACT (MANDATORY - CANNOT SKIP)

This skill uses **ENFORCED execution mode**. You MUST follow this exact 8-step sequence.

---

### STEP 1: Clarifying Questions (MANDATORY)

**Ask via AskUserQuestion BEFORE any other action.**

You MUST gather these inputs from the user — spec quality depends on knowing actors, constraints, and complexity upfront; without these the research query is too broad and the spec will have gaps:

```
AskUserQuestion with these questions:

1. **What to specify**: Project or feature name + brief description
   - "What system/feature should I specify?"

2. **Actors**: Who interacts with this system?
   - Options: End Users, Developers, Admins, External Services, Other

3. **Key constraints**: What matters most?
   - Options: Performance, Security, Compatibility, Scale
   - (multiSelect: true)

4. **Complexity class**: How complex is this?
   - Clear (well-understood, straightforward)
   - Complicated (multiple parts, but knowable)
   - Complex (emergent behavior, unknowns)
```

If user provided a description inline with the command (e.g., `/octo:spec user authentication system`), use that as the project description but STILL ask remaining questions (actors, constraints, complexity).

If user says "skip" for any question, note assumptions and proceed.

**DO NOT PROCEED TO STEP 2 until questions answered.**

---

### STEP 2: Display Visual Indicators (MANDATORY - BLOCKING)

**Check provider availability:**

```bash
provider_status=$(bash "${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/helpers/check-providers.sh")
codex_status=$(echo "$provider_status" | grep -q '^codex:available' && echo "Available" || echo "Not installed")
agy_status=$(echo "$provider_status" | grep -q '^agy:available' && echo "Available" || echo "Not installed")
```

**Display this banner BEFORE orchestrate.sh execution:**

```
🐙 CLAUDE OCTOPUS ACTIVATED - NLSpec Authoring Mode
Spec Phase: Generating structured specification for [project name]

Provider Availability:
Codex CLI: ${codex_status}
Antigravity CLI: ${agy_status}
Claude: Available (Synthesis & NLSpec generation)

Estimated Cost: $0.01-0.05
Estimated Time: 3-7 minutes
```

**Validation:**
- If no external providers are available -> STOP, suggest: `/octo:setup`
- If one or more external providers are available -> Continue with available provider(s)

**DO NOT PROCEED TO STEP 3 until banner displayed.**

---

### STEP 3: Read Prior State (MANDATORY - State Management)

**Before executing the workflow, read any prior context:**

```bash
# Initialize state if needed
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" init_state

# Set current workflow
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" set_current_workflow "flow-spec" "spec"

# Get prior decisions (if any)
prior_decisions=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" get_decisions "all")

# Get context from previous phases (e.g., discover)
prior_context=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" read_state | jq -r '.context')

# Display what you found (if any)
if [[ "$prior_decisions" != "[]" && "$prior_decisions" != "null" ]]; then
  echo "Building on prior decisions:"
  echo "$prior_decisions" | jq -r '.[] | "  - \(.decision) (\(.phase)): \(.rationale)"'
fi
```

**This provides context from:**
- Prior discover phases (if user ran `/octo:discover` first)
- Architectural decisions already made
- User vision captured in earlier phases

**DO NOT PROCEED TO STEP 4 until state read.**

---

### STEP 4: Execute orchestrate.sh probe (MANDATORY - Use Bash Tool)

**You MUST execute this command via the Bash tool:**

```bash
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh probe "specification research for: <project description>. Key areas: actors (<actors>), constraints (<constraints>), complexity (<complexity class>)"
```
