Use when

Trigger signals that make this skill the right owner

  • model lifecycle states transitions guards side effects and terminal states

Do not use when

Anti-triggers — as binding as the triggers above

  • no task-local state machine modeling decision is required

Required inputs

What must be supplied before this skill can decide anything

  • current task contract
  • selected primary Professional Skill
  • task-local trigger evidence

Output contract

What this skill owes the next role

  • state-machine decision with state invariants, transition authority and guards, concurrency, side-effect boundaries, time and recovery semantics, forbidden-path evidence, legacy handling, and residual owners

Escalation signals

When this skill must hand the decision back

  • Invalid transitions cause data corruption and unrecoverable workflow states

Loaded by

This skill never owns a task. These professionals may pull it in as Layer 3.

Targeted references

Each reference carries its own load condition. None of them enter context by default.
