Individual skill

steel-quench

All-angle verification meta-skill for near-complete artifacts. Turns vague design anxiety into structured challenger waves using fh-commons:quench-challenger, then drives defense and convergence until root weaknesses, residual risks, and added complexity are explicit. Covers standard attack/defense rounds, optional Meta-Aware Adversary mode for AI-specific risks such as hallucination, context collapse, prompt injection, and tool lock-in, and Wave-P3 re-attack after an upstream gate declares PASS. Built-in outputs emphasize attack-plus-prescription pairs and can feed fh-meta:persona-innovator after convergence. Triggered by: "quench this", "devil's judgment", "all-angle review", "end-to-end verification", "steel quench", "deep pre-completion inspection", "did it really pass?".

# steel-quench — All-Angle Verification Meta-Skill

> Heating steel and plunging it into water brings internal defects to the surface. quench-challenger attacks → defense → repeat = systematic surfacing and elimination of design flaws.

A designer's anxiety is most dangerous when vague. steel-quench breaks that anxiety into concrete attack angles, defends against them, and closes with residual risks explicitly stated.

> **Scope boundary**: steel-quench stress-tests a **near-complete artifact** (post-build). For pre-build design decisions → `deliberation`. For completed-asset validation → `sim-conductor`.

## Trigger Phrases
