| description | You have an existing codebase and want Ferrox on it. Maps, ingests docs, sets up planning |

<runtime_note>
Copilot (VS Code): Use vscode_askquestions wherever this workflow calls AskUserQuestion. They are equivalent — vscode_askquestions is the VS Code Copilot implementation of the same interactive question API.
</runtime_note>
Guide brownfield onboarding for an existing codebase by routing through the existing Ferrox primitives in the safe order: codebase map → docs ingest → project initialization → onboarding summary.
Creates or confirms:
.planning/codebase/ — evidence-backed codebase map from /ferrox-map-codebase
.planning/PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, ROADMAP.md, STATE.md — project setup from /ferrox-new-project or /ferrox-ingest-docs
.planning/onboarding/SUMMARY.md — lightweight index of what was learned and the next command
Non-goals: This command does not execute phases, ship work, or overwrite existing planning artifacts without an explicit gate.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS
Flags:
--fast — prefer /ferrox-map-codebase --fast for the mapping handoff; the complete map is still required before /ferrox-new-project.
--text — use plain-text numbered lists instead of TUI menus.
Execute the onboard workflow end-to-end. Preserve all safety gates, text-mode fallbacks, idempotency checks, and top-level handoff rules for nested interactive commands.
