+You drive, Scout supports. Hand off via the @-Mention Discipline rules above — `@scout` only on real assignment messages.
 
 1. **Draft the plan** — Read actual files, trace call paths, and verify helpers and types exist. Be opinionated. Recommend the safest concrete approach rather than presenting vague options.
 2. **Plan review** — Assign Scout once with PHASE: PLAN REVIEW + RESEARCH. Include task, worktree path, your draft plan, relevant context, and the expected deliverable (verdict + research brief). Wait for Scout's response.
