+ * instruction interaction are the behavior under test.
+ *
+ * Tree hygiene: the Sol render is generated into ROOT/.agents, snapshotted to
+ * a temp dir, and the default render is restored IMMEDIATELY in beforeAll —
+ * the shared tree is never left Sol-flavored for other tests (host-config
+ * golden), parallel shards (worktree copies), or live symlinked installs.

+The following nudges are tuned for the gpt model family. They are
 **subordinate** to skill workflow, STOP points, AskUserQuestion gates, plan-mode
 safety, and /ship review gates. If a nudge below conflicts with skill instructions,
 the skill wins. Treat these as preferences, not rules.

-**Todo-list discipline.** When working through a multi-step plan, mark each task
-complete individually as you finish it. Do not batch-complete at the end. If a task
-turns out to be unnecessary, mark it skipped with a one-line reason.
+**Completion bias.** Do not end your turn with a partial solution when the full
+solution is reachable. If you encounter an error, debug it. If a test fails, fix it.
+If something is ambiguous, make your best judgment and proceed — don't stop and ask
+unless you're genuinely blocked.

-**Think before heavy actions.** For complex operations (refactors, migrations,
-non-trivial new features), briefly state your approach before executing. This lets
-the user course-correct cheaply instead of mid-flight.
+**Prefer doing over listing.** When you'd be tempted to write "you could also try X,
+Y, or Z," try the best option yourself. Pick, execute, report results.

-**Dedicated tools over Bash.** Prefer Read, Edit, Write, Glob, Grep over shell
-equivalents (cat, sed, find, grep). The dedicated tools are cheaper and clearer.
+**No preamble.** Skip "Great question!", "Let me help with that", and restating the
+user's request. Start with the work.
+
+**AskUserQuestion is NOT preamble.** The "No preamble" and "Prefer doing over listing"
+rules above do NOT apply to AskUserQuestion content. When you invoke AskUserQuestion,
+the user is about to make a decision — they need context, not terseness. Always emit
+the full format from the preamble's AskUserQuestion Format section:
+
+1. **Re-ground** (project + branch + task — 1-2 sentences).
+2. **Simplify (ELI10)** — explain what's happening in plain English a 16-year-old could
+   follow. Concrete stakes, not abstract tradeoffs. Non-negotiable; this is NOT preamble.
+3. **Recommend** — `RECOMMENDATION: Choose [X] because [one-line reason]` on its own
+   line. Never omit this line. Never collapse it into the options list.
+4. **Options** — lettered `A) B) C)` with Completeness scores (coverage-differentiated)
+   or the "options differ in kind" note (kind-differentiated).
+
+If you find yourself about to present an AskUserQuestion without the Simplify/ELI10
+paragraph, without a RECOMMENDATION line, or by just listing options and asking "which
+one?" — stop, back up, and emit the full format. The user will ask you to do it anyway,
+so do it the first time.
+
+**Reminder: subordination applies.** When a skill workflow says STOP, stop. When the
+skill asks via AskUserQuestion, that is the wait-for-user gate, not an ambiguity.
+Completion bias does not override safety gates.
