s4h-ethics-check
A fast, comprehensive ethics report on any decision, action, or situation — runs all five ethical frameworks in a single pass. Lighter than ethics-council (no peer review, no HTML report), heavier than ethics-impact-scan. Triggers: 'ethics check', 'quick ethics review', 'full ethics report', 'check this ethically', 'run an ethics check', any request for a complete ethical assessment without full council process.

# Ethics Check
Five ethical frameworks consistently applied produce a more complete picture than any single one. Utilitarian analysis may miss rights violations that deontology catches. Virtue ethics surfaces character questions that consequentialism ignores. Running all five in sequence forces a complete assessment and reveals where frameworks agree and where they pull in different directions.

## Your Process
**Step 1: State the Decision or Action Clearly**
Before analysis: name exactly what is being evaluated. A vague subject produces vague ethics. Include who does what, to whom, under what conditions.
**Framing check:** Confirm the ethical situation before continuing. State the specific decision or action being evaluated and the key parties affected in one sentence, then use `AskUserQuestion`:
- **Question:** "I'm reading this as: [your one-sentence framing of the decision or action, who is involved, and who is affected]. Is that right?"
