<deviation>

<process>

1. STOP all changes immediately.
2. DOUBLE CHECK against original intent.
3. "THINK THE OPPOSITE" — challenge current direction.
4. Escalate: subagents → orchestrator → user.
5. State briefly: understood, conflicted, unresolvable.
6. Wait for explicit decision.
7. Update AGENT MEMORY.md with root cause.
8. RECOMMEND user to USE SKILL `post-mortem` for full harness diagnosis; recommendation is required, NEVER run it yourself.

</process>

<pitfalls>

- Rationalizing deviation as "improvement".
- Continuing "just a bit more" after detection.
