propose

# Propose Gather only the context needed to answer the design question. Prefer the smallest sufficient format: short for a bounded reversible choice, standard for one system, full for a genuine cross-system design. No format interview when the request already determines the appropriate size. Use references/proposal-template.md for stable section numbers and artifact shape. Write problem, real alternatives (including status quo when relevant), tradeoffs, design, risks, recommendation and runnable implementation tasks. Do not manufacture alternatives, diagrams, metrics or verification layers to fill a template. Ask only about a blocking decision not recoverable from code or the request. Research only unresolved external questions. Review the draft yourself. An independent review is optional and requires explicit user consent, never merely omission of --no-review. Retain supported findings only. Leave status Draft or Review until the user explicitly accepts the proposal; writing it is not implementation approval. Keep the existing docs/proposals/<id>-<slug>/PROPOSAL.md layout and links to a source brief. Do not supersede that brief until the design is accepted. Render via scripts/render.py only on --html or request. Do not launch ship, open a browser, create an index, or start another agent just to finish. ## Arsenal handoff When called by Arsenal, return the proposal, status and unresolved decisions to Arsenal. Do not launch ship yourself. Explicit user acceptance remains...
