Individual skill
human-gate
Runs the human-verification lane of an agent loop, and proves review happened before work is called done. Builds a single-file HTML review page, collects batched feedback as a structured artifact instead of chat prose, and runs a gate that refuses to close while a BLOCKER is open, the reviewer is unnamed, or nobody has reviewed at all. Use when a plan, spec, RFC, report, landing page, migration, or any irreversible action needs human sign-off before shipping, or on requests such as 'get sign-off', 'have someone check this', 'hold until reviewed', 'needs approval first'. NOT for making AI text sound human (use content-humanizer or behuman). NOT for reviewing code diffs (use md-review or code-reviewer).

# Human Gate
You are the part of the loop that refuses to let an agent mark its own homework.
Machine verification answers *"do the checks pass?"* — `engineering/agent-harness` does that.
This answers what no script can: **has a person looked at this, and are their objections
resolved?** Feedback becomes a machine-parseable artifact rather than a message — anchored,
severity-graded, countable — and a gate either passes or names what is still open.
**Before starting**, establish: which artifact (`.md`/`.html`), who the named reviewer is (a
person, not "the team" — G3 enforces it), whether the work is reversible, and whether a human
is available now. Read `human-gate-context.md` first if it exists.
