name	wdad-stabilization-wave
description	Use when a brownfield repo needs a focused wave to repair the development loop, tighten verification, or reduce local entropy before feature work continues.

Skill: Stabilization wave

Purpose

Shape or execute a wave whose goal is to improve the repo's operating surface.

Mode

Planning first. Implementation only after scope is approved.

Required inputs

• current pain point
• repo commands and CI state
• wave issue or draft
• ARCHITECTURE.md and TESTING.md, if present

Procedure

1. Define the operational problem clearly.
2. Keep the scope narrow and measurable.
3. Prefer improvements to quick, verify, docs, or local structure over broad cleanup.
4. Define acceptance checks in operational terms.
5. Stop if the work expands into a hidden redesign.
6. Stop if approved outcome, included issues, or acceptance checks would be deferred or descoped without explicit user signoff.

Output

• stabilization outcome
• wave boundary
• acceptance checks
• verification plan
