## What It Does Checks whether the requested change is already authorized by the active spec so implementation does not drift into unspecced work. ## Use This When Use this before implementation, refactors, or bug fixes that could quietly expand scope beyond the approved story or solution artifact. ## Inputs - Read the request text at `request_text`. - Read every active spec artifact passed in `spec_paths`. - Read `references/scope-rules.md` before deciding whether the request is covered, additive, or out of scope. ## Procedure 1. Run `scripts/check-spec-presence.sh` — exit 1 means immediately classify as `blocked-no-spec` and stop. 2. Extract requested behavior change, modules, and constraints from the request. 3. Compare against the active spec artifacts only (no inferred memory, no informal context). 4. Pick a decision from `assets/decision-vocabulary.txt` (`within-scope | extension-needed | blocked-no-spec`). 5. Cite exact spec evidence (file + criterion/passage). 6. Format per `assets/output.template.md`; validate with `scripts/lint-output.sh`. ## Output Contract - Match `assets/output.template.md`: `## Scope Decision` (decision token + one-line justification), `## Spec Evidence`, `## Required Next Step`. - Decision token must come from `assets/decision-vocabulary.txt`. - Output must pass `scripts/lint-output.sh` (exit 0). ## Escalate / Stop Conditions - Block when no spec artifact exists for feature, bug-fix, refactor, or migration work. - Ask when multiple s
