# A2 Context Spec Workflow Post Shell Selector Operator

Use this skill when the `context-spec-workflow-memory` cluster has already landed
its append-safe continuity-shell slice and the controller needs one explicit
post-shell hold-or-standby result.

## Purpose

- confirm the append-safe slice actually landed cleanly
- keep the cluster held by default after that landing
- record the first standby follow-on without opening it by momentum
- preserve explicit non-goals around multi-pattern widening, runtime import,
  service bootstrap, canonical brain replacement, graph replacement, and
  memory-platform ownership

## Execute Now

1. Confirm the append-safe slice report is green.
2. Confirm the older follow-on selector still points at the append-safe slice.
3. Emit one repo-held post-shell selector report and one compact packet.
4. Keep the current cluster held unless a future explicit reselection reopens it.

## Quality Gates

- No direct landing of another pattern family from this selector.
- No multi-pattern widening.
- No runtime/service/training claims.
- No canonical `A2` / `A1` brain replacement claim.
- No graph-substrate replacement claim.
- No memory-platform ownership claim.
