DCG: When You Get Blocked

Core Insight: Blocks are checkpoints, not errors. A safe alternative almost always exists. Find it before mentioning override.

THE EXACT WORKFLOW

When blocked, follow this sequence every time:

1. Run `dcg explain "cmd"` → Understand why (see trace)
2. Check Safe Alternatives table → Use if exists (DON'T mention override)
3. No alternative? → Explain risk clearly, let human decide
4. Human approves? → THEY run: dcg allow-once CODE

Never: Ask for override first. Never retry silently. Never circumvent.

Example block output:

BLOCKED: git reset --hard HEAD
Rule: core.git:reset-hard
Reason: Discards uncommitted changes permanently
Allow-once code: ab12
Safer alternative: git stash
