# Drift detect

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | User says "plan drift", asks whether roadmap/plans/docs still match code, or decides what to rebuild when restarting a stalled project or cutting a release from stale plans |
| Authority | Reversible local: writes only optional `.outline/drift-detect/` evidence or reality-check artifacts; rollback is version control or undo. No remote mutation. No doc, issue, PR, or code mutation. |
| Side effect | Optional local artifact under `.outline/drift-detect/`; rollback is deleting that directory |
| Done | Reality Check Report returned with executive summary, drift analysis, gap analysis, cross-reference table, and prioritized reconstruction plan; every item evidence-cited |

## Inputs

- Target scope: whole repo, named plan file, named milestone, release branch, or feature area. Must be supplied.
