human-gate
Use before shipping anything that needs human sign-off (a plan, spec, report, page, migration or irreversible action). Builds a review page with review_page_builder.py and runs human_gate.py, which refuses to close with an open blocker or no named 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.
