Onboard Gap-Fill

Takes the gap list from /onboard-verify and emits ONE focused HANDOFF per gap to the appropriate specialist.

Usage:

• /onboard-gap-fill — fill gaps reported by the last verify run
• /onboard-gap-fill <path> — fill gaps for a specific project root

What it does

1. Read the latest gap list (either from /onboard-verify output or by running validate-phase-gate.sh onboard-deep again)
2. For each gap, map the category -> agent:
   • ROUTE missing -> api-designer
   • TABLE missing -> db-architect
   • SERVICE missing -> researcher
   • FLOW missing -> researcher
   • ENTRY missing -> researcher
3. Emit a focused HANDOFF per gap (not a single mega-HANDOFF)
4. Each HANDOFF is scoped to the ONE inventory row it targets

Hard cap

3 gap-fill iterations. After iteration 3, if gaps remain, emit the escalation block from agents/shared/RALPH_WIGGUM_LOOP.md and STOP.

Rule

Do NOT re-run the whole DISCOVER phase. Re-discover only the flagged rows. This is what makes Ralph Wiggum cheap enough to run in practice.
