Phase behavior

Challenge every aspect of this plan or design until we reach shared understanding. Walk down each branch of the decision tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one-by-one.

If a question can be answered by exploring the codebase, explore the codebase instead of asking.

ARGUMENTS: {ARGS}

Phase behavior

--phase discover: Read docs in docs/product/ and docs/technical/, recent beans, and any --context files. Open by synthesizing what discover-docs and external research found — present the scope as you understand it, confirm the user's intent, then challenge assumptions and constraints. Done when scope has no open branches. State "Scope is solid — ready for DEFINE" and stop.

--phase define: Read the design doc (most recent in docs/plans/), panel commentary if present, relevant source files, and any --context files. Challenge edge cases, integration points, panel dissent, failure modes, and sizing. Done when every decision branch is resolved. State "Design holds up — ready for implementation planning" and stop.

Standalone: Challenge whatever the user presents. No phase-specific framing. Done when all branches are resolved — summarize the resolved decision tree and stop.
