# A2 Context Spec Workflow Follow-On Selector Operator

Use this skill when the first `context-spec-workflow-memory` slice is already
landed and we need one explicit bounded choice about which pattern family to
deepen next.

## Purpose

- read the landed first-slice pattern audit
- choose one bounded follow-on pattern family only
- emit one repo-held report and one compact packet
- keep the result selector-only, non-runtime-live, and non-substrate-replacing

## Execute Now

1. Read:
   - [A2_CONTEXT_SPEC_WORKFLOW_PATTERN_AUDIT_REPORT__CURRENT__v1.json](/home/ratchet/Desktop/Codex%20Ratchet/system_v4/a2_state/audit_logs/A2_CONTEXT_SPEC_WORKFLOW_PATTERN_AUDIT_REPORT__CURRENT__v1.json)
   - [A2_CONTEXT_SPEC_WORKFLOW_PATTERN_AUDIT_PACKET__CURRENT__v1.json](/home/ratchet/Desktop/Codex%20Ratchet/system_v4/a2_state/audit_logs/A2_CONTEXT_SPEC_WORKFLOW_PATTERN_AUDIT_PACKET__CURRENT__v1.json)
   - [A2_SOURCE_FAMILY_LANE_SELECTION_REPORT__CURRENT__v1.json](/home/ratchet/Desktop/Codex%20Ratchet/system_v4/a2_state/audit_logs/A2_SOURCE_FAMILY_LANE_SELECTION_REPORT__CURRENT__v1.json)
   - [A2_CONTROLLER_STATE_RECORD__CURRENT__v1.md](/home/ratchet/Desktop/Codex%20Ratchet/system_v3/a2_state/A2_CONTROLLER_STATE_RECORD__CURRENT__v1.md)
   - [A2_EVERMEM_BACKEND_REACHABILITY_AUDIT_REPORT__CURRENT__v1.json](/home/ratchet/Desktop/Codex%20Ratchet/system_v4/a2_state/audit_logs/A2_EVERMEM_BACKEND_REACHABILITY_AUDIT_REPORT__CURRENT__v1.json)
2. Select only one bounded follow-on pattern family.
3. Emit one report and one packet only.

## Quality Gates

- Do not widen into context, specs, workflow, and memory all at once.
- Do not import any runtime, service, or hosted memory assumption.
- Do not claim canonical A2/A1 brain replacement or graph-substrate replacement.
- Do not mutate registry, graph, or external services from this slice.
- Keep the output as a selector recommendation, not a landed second slice.
