Create a host-native `/goal` prompt for bounded ORCA plan work, especially when the user wants an agent to keep working through ready ORCA plans, delegate blocker fixes to subagents, record true blockers, and move on without stalling.
Implement planned changes with scoped edits, verification, and respect for existing project patterns.
Create bounded delegation briefs and structured executor returns for ORCA Framework workflows.
Prepare release readiness checks, release notes, rollback guidance, and handoff.
Record time, retries, and optional token, cache, and cost metrics for ORCA Framework workflows without fabricating precision.
Provide lightweight, skill-sensitive coaching without slowing down normal ORCA Framework execution.

| description | Pause work at explicit decision points, gather inspection context, and record approve/reject/resume outcomes. |
A practical workflow for pausing risky or ambiguous work so a human can inspect and decide what happens next.
Use for scope expansion, destructive edits, dependency changes, architecture pivots, ambiguous verification, or ship-readiness uncertainty.
Do not force checkpoints for already-approved, low-risk work.
templates/checkpoint-request.mdtemplates/checkpoint-decision.mdThe checkpoint should make the decision easy to inspect and easy to resume from.
Works with orca-approve, orca-state, orca-inspect, and orca-ship.
