## Overview

This skill instructs the agent on how to operate within the primary Elephant
context window to parse flat deficiency reports from concurrent Goldfish
reviewers. It defends accurate design choices, applies automated textual
repairs, and manages interactive negotiation checkpoints.

## Prerequisites & Context Strategy

*   **Context Recommendation (Elephant Memory)**: This skill should be run in
    the persistent conversation session that generated the target document (the
    Elephant) to recall earlier reasoning and craft higher-quality fixes.

## Inputs

The caller or orchestration driver provides exactly these parameters:

*   **`TargetFile`**: Absolute or relative path to target document.
*   **`LineRange`**: Exact line numbers (or `full file`).
*   **`FindingsList`**: Aggregated flat list of findings from Goldfish
    reviewers.

## Execution Workflow

### Step 1: Intake Validation & Gather Context

1.  **Hybrid Execution UX**: Detect if execution arguments are present:

    *   *Automated Mode*: If all parameters are provided, execute silently as a
        subprocess.
    *   *Standalone Human Mode*: If parameters are omitted, trigger a friendly
        onboarding flow. Prompt for one piece of input at a time, waiting for
        the user's response after each turn. Once all inputs are specified,
        display the final setup and verify the user is ready to continue.

2.  Read `TargetFile` at `LineRange` by reading it and parse the `FindingsList`.

### Step 2: Evaluate & Categorize

Give each finding exactly one category:
