Final Validation
Quality gate before final output.
Execution
Dialogue — inline, CC performs self-review then presents.
Self-Review Checks
- Placeholder scan: any TBD, empty sections, incomplete information?
- Internal consistency: do any sections contradict each other?
- Completeness: any critical information gaps that would block downstream work?
- Ambiguity: any requirement interpretable two different ways?
If Issues Found
Return to the specific tactic/SOP that can fix the gap. Targeted fix, not full re-run.
If Passes
Present North Star + ResearchBrief to user.
What to Ask
- Is this the direction you want to pursue?
- Does anything need adjustment?
- Are you ready to move forward with this as your research brief?
Output
User-confirmed North Star + ResearchBrief (final artifacts).
