# intent > Sprint 4 composable skill (v8.19.0+). Wraps the new Intent phase that runs between Calibrate and Research when `EVOLVE_REQUIRE_INTENT=1`. Single-persona, autonomy-preserving — no human checkpoint mid-cycle. ## When to invoke - **Autonomous**: orchestrator advances to phase=intent when `cycle-state.intent_required==true` (set at cycle init from `EVOLVE_REQUIRE_INTENT=1`) - **User-driven**: `/evolve-loop:intent`, before `/evolve-loop:loop`, to lock in structured intent - **Re-run**: re-invoke to replace prior intent.md within the same cycle (kernel accepts latest ledger entry) ## When NOT to invoke - After Scout has already run for this cycle (intent must precede research) - For pure-execution cycles where the goal is fully specified (e.g., "fix typo at file.md:42") — but in practice, even those benefit from the explicit `non_goals` and `acceptance_checks` - When `EVOLVE_REQUIRE_INTENT` is unset and the user has not explicitly invoked `/evolve-loop:intent` — default flow skips this phase ## Workflow | Step | Action | Exit criteria | |---|---|---| | 1 | Read user goal + workspace + priorIntent (if re-run) | Inputs gathered | | 2 | Classify input via AwN framework (IMKI/IMR/IwE/IBTC/CLEAR) | Single class chosen | | 3 | If awn_class == IBTC: emit short scope-rejection intent.md | gate_intent_to_research will short-circuit cycle | | 4 | Otherwise: produce 8-field structured intent.md | Frontmatter complete + body written | | 5 | Surface ≥1 challenged_premise — ass
