octocode-rfc-generator

Use when a consequential change needs a decision before coding: write or improve an RFC, design doc, architecture proposal, migration plan, option comparison, rollout plan, or measurable implementation contract. If the idea is still open-ended, use octocode-brainstorming first.

# Octocode RFC Generator

Produce evidence-backed decisions that an implementer and reviewer can execute.
Flow: `UNDERSTAND → RESEARCH → PREREQUISITES → COMPARE → WRITE → CLOSE QUESTIONS → KPI → VALIDATE → DELIVER`.
For existing RFCs, run `REASSESS` (see `references/workflow.md` § Reassess existing RFCs) instead of WRITE — audit against live code, not prior checkboxes.

## Lobby rules
- Skip RFC mode for trivial edits. Ask one focused question when uncertainty changes shape, owner, scope, or decision criteria.
- Compare at least two alternatives, including do-nothing, unless the user explicitly requests one implementation plan.
- Recommendations require verifiable facts; cite exact anchors and commands/checks that actually ran.
- `RFC.md` owns goals, scope, and decision. Other files link to its anchors rather than restating them.
- Resolve every open question with evidence or an explicit deferral; no recommendation may rest on an uncertain claim.
- Order implementation by dependency, not estimates; bind requirements to acceptance and verification.
- Reviewing, rating, or cleaning up `.octocode/rfc/` (delete/implemented/fixed calls) always requires a dated `## Audit Reasoning` block written into the RFC itself, backed by fresh reads of the live code.
