Pre-Development: State Check

Before starting development:

1. Read .octo/STATE.md to verify Define phase complete
2. Update STATE.md:
   • current_phase: 3
   • phase_position: "Development"
   • status: "in_progress"

# Verify Define phase is complete
if [[ -f ".octo/STATE.md" ]]; then
  define_status=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/octo-state.sh" get_phase_status 2)
  if [[ "$define_status" != "complete" ]]; then
    echo "⚠️ Warning: Define phase not marked complete. Consider running definition first."
  fi
fi

# Update state for Development phase
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/octo-state.sh" update_state \
  --phase 3 \
  --position "Development" \
  --status "in_progress"

⚠️ EXECUTION CONTRACT (MANDATORY - CANNOT SKIP)

This skill uses ENFORCED execution mode. You MUST follow this exact sequence.

STEP 1: Detect Work Context (MANDATORY)

Analyze the user's prompt and project to determine context:

Knowledge Context Indicators:

• Deliverable terms: "PRD", "proposal", "presentation", "report", "strategy document", "business case"
• Business terms: "market entry", "competitive analysis", "stakeholder", "executive summary"

Dev Context Indicators:

• Technical terms: "API", "endpoint", "function", "module", "service", "component"
• Action terms: "implement", "code", "build", "create", "develop" + technical noun

Also check: Does project have package.json, Cargo.toml, etc.? (suggests Dev Context)

Capture context_type = "Dev" or "Knowledge"

Step 1b: Detect Dev Subtype (if Dev context)

When context_type is Dev, determine the subtype to inject domain-appropriate quality guidance into the prompt sent to providers. Append the matching supplement text after the user's prompt.

frontend-ui enrichment

When frontend-ui subtype is detected, do TWO things:

A. Inject quality supplement into the prompt: Self-contained files preferred. Accessibility: ARIA labels, keyboard nav, 44px touch targets (WCAG 2.5.5). Safe DOM: createElement over innerHTML. Progressive enhancement: feature-detect APIs (navigator.share, localStorage) with fallbacks. Persist user prefs via localStorage.

B. Pull design intelligence from BM25 (if available):

Before calling orchestrate.sh, check if the design intelligence engine exists and query it for relevant design context:

SEARCH_PY="${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/vendors/ui-ux-pro-max-skill/src/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py"
if [[ -f "$SEARCH_PY" ]]; then
    # Detect relevant domains from the prompt
    design_context=""
    # Style query — what visual style fits this task?
    style_hit=$(python3 "$SEARCH_PY" "<user's task description>" --domain style --top 1 2>/dev/null || true)
    [[ -n "$style_hit" ]] && design_context+="Design style suggestion: $style_hit\n"
    # UX query — relevant UX patterns
    ux_hit=$(python3 "$SEARCH_PY" "<user's task description>" --domain ux --top 1 2>/dev/null || true)
    [[ -n "$ux_hit" ]] && design_context+="UX pattern: $ux_hit\n"
    # Append to prompt if hits found
    if [[ -n "$design_context" ]]; then
        # Append design intelligence to the orchestrate.sh prompt
        prompt="${prompt}\n\nDesign intelligence (from BM25 search):\n${design_context}"
    fi
fi

This gives providers concrete design guidance (style direction, UX patterns) without requiring the user to run /octo:design-ui-ux separately. If the search engine isn't installed, implementation proceeds with the quality supplement only.

How to apply: When calling orchestrate.sh in Step 4, append the quality supplement (and design intelligence if available) to the prompt:

orchestrate.sh develop "<user prompt>\n\nQuality requirements for this deliverable:\n<supplement text>\n<design intelligence if found>"

DO NOT PROCEED TO STEP 2 until context determined. Context type (Dev vs Knowledge) and dev subtype determine which quality supplements and design intelligence to inject — wrong context wastes provider credits on irrelevant analysis.

STEP 2: Display Visual Indicators (MANDATORY - BLOCKING)

MANDATORY: You MUST use the Bash tool to run this provider check BEFORE displaying the banner. Do NOT skip it. Do NOT assume availability.

bash "${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/helpers/check-providers.sh"

Use the ACTUAL results below. PROHIBITED: Showing only "🔵 Claude: Available ✓" without listing all providers.

If OCTO_ALLOWED_PROVIDERS is set, treat it as the source of truth for which providers may participate. Providers filtered out by that allowlist are intentionally reported as unavailable; do not invoke or recommend them in the workflow.

Display this banner BEFORE orchestrate.sh execution:

For Dev Context:

🐙 **CLAUDE OCTOPUS ACTIVATED** - Multi-provider implementation mode
🛠️ [Dev] Develop Phase: [Brief description of what you're building]

Provider Availability:
🔴 Codex CLI: ${codex_status} - Code generation and patterns
🟡 Gemini CLI: ${gemini_status} - Alternative approaches
🧭 Antigravity CLI: ${agy_status} - Additional external-model challenge
🔵 Claude: Available ✓ - Integration and quality gates

💰 Estimated Cost: $0.02-0.10
⏱️  Estimated Time: 3-7 minutes

For Knowledge Context:

🐙 **CLAUDE OCTOPUS ACTIVATED** - Multi-provider implementation mode
🛠️ [Knowledge] Develop Phase: [Brief description of deliverable]

Provider Availability:
🔴 Codex CLI: ${codex_status} - Structure and framework application
🟡 Gemini CLI: ${gemini_status} - Content and narrative development
🧭 Antigravity CLI: ${agy_status} - Additional external-model challenge
🔵 Claude: Available ✓ - Integration and quality review

💰 Estimated Cost: $0.02-0.10
⏱️  Estimated Time: 3-7 minutes

DO NOT PROCEED TO STEP 3 until banner displayed. The banner shows users which providers will run and what costs they'll incur — starting API calls without this visibility violates cost transparency.

STEP 3: Read Prior State (MANDATORY - State Management)

Before executing the workflow, read any prior context:

# Initialize state if needed
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" init_state

# Set current workflow
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" set_current_workflow "flow-develop" "develop"

# Get prior decisions (critical for implementation)
prior_decisions=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" get_decisions "all")

# Get context from discover and define phases
discover_context=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" get_context "discover")
define_context=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" get_context "define")

# Display what you found (if any)
if [[ "$discover_c
