Summary

  • Splits brainstorming Step 8 into Step 8 (create workflow file) + Step 9 (present execution options) so the model's checklist naturally includes options presentation before completion
  • Adds <HARD-GATE> blocks to both hotl-brainstorming.md and hotl-planning.md prohibiting task completion before user chooses an execution mode
  • Cline-only change — canonical skills in skills/ untouched, Claude Code and Codex unaffected

Test plan

  • All 43 smoke tests pass
  • hotl-brainstorming.md has Step 9 with execution options + HARD-GATE
  • hotl-planning.md has "Present Execution Options" section + HARD-GATE
  • Both rules contain "Do NOT mark task complete" language
  • No files in skills/ modified

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

In Cline's auto-approve mode, the model sometimes marks "Task Completed"
after creating the workflow file, skipping execution options. This splits
brainstorming Step 8 into Step 8 (create file) + Step 9 (present options)
and adds HARD-GATE blocks to both brainstorming and planning rules
requiring the user to choose an execution mode before task completion.

Cline-only change — Claude Code and Codex skills unaffected.
