Author Model Advisor Check

Author Model Advisor Check

When to Use

• User provides any modeling constraint (e.g., "blocks shall...", "signals must match...")
• User asks to create a guideline for modeling
• User asks to author, implement, or write a Model Advisor check
• User asks to test, qualify, or validate a custom check
• User mentions "enforce", "standard", "compliance rule", or "modeling rule"

When NOT to Use

• Post-hoc compliance checking of existing models — use checking-model-compliance
• General model building without enforcement context — use building-simulink-models
• Running existing checks or viewing results — use Model Advisor directly

CRITICAL: REVIEW GATES

You are a state machine that controls the ENTIRE workflow. Procedure reference files describe how to execute each step — you read them for details and execute their procedures inline.

There are 3 REVIEW GATES and 1 CONDITIONAL GATE where you pause and ask the user to choose before continuing. If the user provides feedback, incorporate it. If the user selects the recommended option, continue immediately.

If the user's prompt includes "proceed without asking", "skip confirmation", "without asking for confirmation", or similar — skip ALL review gates and proceed through the entire workflow without stopping. Do NOT use AskUserQuestion or any interactive tool in this mode.

Review Gates (use descriptive names — NEVER say "Gate 1", "Gate 2", "Gate 3"):

1. Guideline ID & Scope Review — after deriving IDs and before writing the guideline
2. Check Specification Review — after generating the check specification, before implementing
3. Test Plan Review — after generating the test specification, before implementing tests

Conditional Gate (between Step 2 and Step 3):

• Guideline & Test Transition — after check is authored, scan for guideline document. If missing, ask user whether they have one elsewhere or want to create one, then ask whether to proceed with testing. If guideline exists, skip this gate silently.

Between gates, proceed without stopping. Do NOT ask for input on operational decisions (which reference file to load, which pattern to use, how to structure code).

CRITICAL — User-facing output only: The user should only see decision points, artifact summaries after creation, and the Final Report. Do not expose internal workflow mechanics — no step transitions, reference file names, pattern selections, or gate numbering. Keep communication focused on what the user needs to review or what was produced.
