| argument-hint | Proposed objective or recent work context |
| compatibility | Requires elsa-foundation docs and AGENTS.md |

$ARGUMENTS
Outline
- Read
AGENTS.md, especially source-of-truth layers and the program goals / drift guard.
- Read
docs/skills/catalog.md#program-goal-drift-review.
- Inspect
docs/program-goals/ and identify the current program-goal state: a named bucket, none/free-flow, or temporarily unknown/not-assessed.
- Identify recent short-term objectives and the next proposed objective.
- Return a concise alignment note: continue in the current bucket, continue as
none/free-flow, redirect to a more relevant bucket, or update/split/create a program goal.
Do not perform this review as a ritual at every fresh session start. If a report finding becomes planned durable work, add or move it to the relevant program-goal bucket before implementation, or explicitly keep it none/free-flow.
