You are implementing spec packet 028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass.

# RUNTIME RULES (read first)

- Run as inline Codex execution. Do NOT call SpawnAgent, collab: SpawnAgent, Task, or any sub-agent. If you would dispatch, stop and work inline instead.
- Gate 3 (spec-folder) answer for this run: the spec folder is `.opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass/`. Use it. specFolder=systemspeckit028. Do NOT ask interactive questions; stdin is closed.
- Stay strictly inside the SCOPE LIST below. Outside-scope edits are a rollback trigger.
- Do NOT run the full /spec_kit:deep-review:auto YAML loop for verification — that's a 10+ minute dispatch. Dry-run setup-phase resolution only.
- Final output: ONE summary message at the end listing every file you modified, every test you ran, and any unresolved questions.

You may READ any file. You may NOT edit `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml` unless you find a hard requirement to do so — if you do, document the change in implementation-summary §Key Decisions with explicit justification.

# CONTEXT — SOURCE OF TRUTH

Read these IN ORDER before making any edits:

1. `.opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass/spec.md` — the contract you must implement. §2 PROBLEM & PURPOSE defines the three-tier flow; §3 SCOPE lists what's in/out; §4 REQUIREMENTS gives acceptance criteria; §5 SUCCESS CRITERIA gives the testable outcomes.

2. `.opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass/plan.md` — the design. §3 ARCHITECTURE explains the Pattern + Data Flow with the exact step-by-step setup resolution. §FIX ADDENDUM: AFFECTED SURFACES (if present) maps cells.

3. `.opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass/tasks.md` — the broken-down work. Phase 2 lists the implementation tasks T010-T014.

4. `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` — the file you will modify. §0 UNIFIED SETUP PHASE is the target. Read the full §0 carefully; the current behavior is to ALWAYS emit the consolidated question block. You're adding a three-tier branch under `:auto`.

5. `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml` — the consumer of `deep-review-config.json`. Read its setup steps (likely `step_init` and `step_resolve_setup` or equivalent) so you know what config shape it expects.

# IMPLEMENTATION TASKS (from 028/tasks.md Phase 2)

## T010 — Add the three-tier branch to deep-review.md §0

Under `:auto` mode (`execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`), implement three tiers in this order:

**Tier 1 — Resolve confidently:**
- Parse $ARGUMENTS for flags (--max-iterations, --convergence, --executor, --model, --reasoning-effort, --service-tier, --executor-timeout, --no-resource-map, --spec-folder)
- Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block (see T011 for grammar)
- Apply documented per-field defaults (see T013):
  - mode: AUTONOMOUS (from :auto suffix)
  - dims: "all"
  - maxIterations: 7
  - convergenceThreshold: 0.10
  - executor: native
  - target_type: auto-detect from target path (spec-folder if it ends in NNN-name/; skill if skill:NAME; agent if agent:NAME; track if track:NN-NAME; files otherwise)
- If after all that, every required input is resolved → persist resolved values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, set STATUS: PASSED, load YAML, end §0.

**Tier 2 — Targeted ask:**
- If 1 or 2 required inputs remain unresolved AND no sensible default exists, emit ONE narrow question per ambiguous field — NEVER the full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block.
- Required fields: review_target (Q0), spec_folder (Q1) when not derivable from target. Other fields have defaults.
- Wait briefly for user input (model decides; in non-interactive runtimes this falls through to Tier 3 on stdin EOF).
- After answer arrives, merge into resolved map and re-run Tier 1's persistence step.

**Tier 3 — Fail fast:**
- If `:auto` AND inputs are truly unresolvable AND Tier 2 produced no answer (stdin EOF), emit a clear error naming each missing input, exit non-zero. Format:
```
[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
```
- Never hang on stdin.

`:confirm` mode keeps its existing single-branch behavior (emit full consolidated question block, wait). Don't touch that path.

## T011 — Document the PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block schema in §0

Add a new subsection inside §0 (after the existing question-block listing) titled something like "### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for :auto non-interactive dispatch)".

Document the block as a structured marker the dispatched AI parses out of the prompt body. Example grammar:

```
PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder
  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
  maxIterations: 10
  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
```

Document that:
- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default (T013).
- Fields specified inline take precedence over $ARGUMENTS flags (caller's explicit binding wins).
- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
- Malformed block (e.g. missing colon) emits parse error + falls through to Tier 2/3.

## T012 — Add fail-fast error emitter for Tier 3

Make sure the AI runtime that runs §0 understands:
- Under AUTONOMOUS + truly unresolvable → emit the exact ERROR format above, exit non-zero.
- The message must NAME every missing input.
- No question prompts in this path; pure error.

## T013 — Document per-field default-resolution rules

In §0, after the schema, add a small table that for each setup field lists:
- Field name
- Required (Y/N)
- Resolves via: flag | marker | default | requires-ask
- Default value (if any)
- Tier-2 candidate (Y/N — only Y if no default AND user must choose)

Example row:
```
| review_target | Y | flag → $ARGUMENTS first positional, OR marker → review_target | none | Y |
| review_dimensions | N | flag → --dims, OR marker → review_dimensions, OR default → "all" | "all" | N |
| executor | N | flag → --executor, OR marker → executor, OR default → "native" | "native" | N |
| maxIterations | N | flag → --max-iterations, OR marker → maxIterations, OR default → 7 | 7 | N |
```

This makes the contract auditable: someone reading §0 can quickly see which fields could trigger Tier 2.

## T014 — Update the command's argument-hint and execution-protocol comments

The current `argument-hint:` in the frontmatter:
```
argument-hint: "<target> [:auto|:confirm] [--max-iterations=N] [--convergence=N]"
```

Update to reference the new bypass path. Something like:
```
argument-hint: "<target> [:auto|:confirm] [--max-iterations=N] [--convergence=N] [--spec-folder=PATH] (:auto supports PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: prompt-body block for non-interactive setup)"
```

Also update the EXECUTION PROTOCOL comment at the top of the file to mention that `:auto` follows the three-tier setup-resolution contract.

# VERIFICATION TASKS

After implementation, perform a DRY RUN verification (no real YAML dispatch — that's too expensive):

## V1 — Read-back check
Re-read `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` §0. Confirm:
- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled
- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented
- Per-field default-resolution table is present
- Tier 3 error format is documented
- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged

## V2 — Mental dispatch trace (write to evidence/dry-run-verification.txt)
For each of these hypothetical dispatches, trace through §0 step by step and document what would happen:

**Trace A — Tier 1 pass:** Dispatch is `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5` with no body markers. Walk through Tier 1 resolution and verify every required input lands. Expected outcome: STATUS: PASSED, YAML loaded, no question emitted.

**Trace B — Tier 2 targeted ask:** Dispatch is `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"` with no flags. Walk through Tier 1 (target_type can't be auto-detected from a bare string), then Tier 2 (emit ONE question about target_type, not the full block). Expected outcome: one targeted question emitted, not full Q0..Q-Exec.

**Trace C — Tier 3 fail fast:** Dispatch is `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""` (empty target). Walk through Tier 1 (no target), Tier 2 (target is required but Tier 2 only handles ambiguity, not absence), Tier 3 (fail fast). Expected outcome: ERROR message, non-zero exit.

**Trace D — :confirm regression:** Dispatch is `/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`. Walk through §0. Expected outcome: existing full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated question block.

Write the 4 traces to `028/evidence/dry-run-verification.txt`. Each trace section gets a header (`## Trace A — Tier 1 pass`), the dispatch input, the §0 step-by-step trace, and the verdict (`EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes/no`).

## V3 — Populate 028/implementation-summary.md
Fill out the existing template with:
- Metadata table (Level 2, Status Complete after V2, Date 2026-05-11)
- §What Was Built: bullet list of what changed in deep-review.md
- §How It Was Delivered: the approach (inline-contract codex dispatch + dry-run verification)
- §Key Decisions: any design judgments you made (e.g. which fields are Tier-2-eligible, exact block grammar choice)
- §Verification: 4 traces + read-back check results
- §Known Limitations: anything you couldn't resolve

Set frontmatter `completion_pct: 100`; clear `open_questions: []`.

## V4 — Update 028/tasks.md to mark T010..T014 + V1..V3 as `[x]`

## V5 — Update 028/checklist.md to mark every item with evidence text

# FINAL REPORT

After all of the above, output ONE final message with:
1. Files modified (path only)
2. Did each of T010..T014 land? (one line each)
3. Did each of V1..V4 verify? (one line each)
4. Any decision you made that wasn't pre-specified in the spec
5. Any concerns about the implementation that a reviewer should know

# CONSTRAINTS REPEATED

- Do NOT call SpawnAgent / collab: SpawnAgent / Task / any sub-agent.
- Do NOT touch files outside the SCOPE LIST.
- Do NOT run the full /spec_kit:deep-review:auto YAML loop. Dry-run trace only.
- The spec folder is the answer to Gate 3; use `028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass`.
- Stay strictly within the contract defined by 028's spec.md and plan.md.

I’ll use the provided 028 spec folder as the Gate 3 answer and keep this inline, no sub-agents. I’m going to read the contract files in the order you gave, then patch only the scoped files and write the dry-run evidence.
Gate 3 is already answered by the user: .opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass/
  → Read 028 contract and command surfaces in required order
  • Patch deep-review.md setup contract
  • Write dry-run evidence traces
  • Update implementation summary, tasks, and checklist
  • Run allowed validation/read-back checks

Skill routing is already surfaced by the runtime: `deep-review` and `command-spec-kit` both match strongly. I’m using the spec-kit contract path here, but staying out of the full deep-review loop per your verification constraint.

## 2. PROBLEM & PURPOSE

### Problem Statement
`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` advertises itself as autonomous (`:auto` suffix → `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`). In practice, the markdown entrypoint at `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` §0 UNIFIED SETUP PHASE always emits a `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated question block (Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec) and waits on stdin before loading the YAML workflow. When dispatched non-interactively via `codex exec </dev/null` or `opencode run --pure ... </dev/null`, the session hits stdin EOF, emits the question, and exits 0 with no work done — silently. The user-side workaround (pre-binding every setup answer in the prompt) works but is brittle, undocumented in the command surface, and easy to forget.

Concrete incident: 2026-05-11 102/004 Stage E first dispatch hung 3 minutes at the setup gate; second dispatch (with pre-bound answers in the prompt) ran the full 5-iteration deep-review and converged.

### Purpose
Make `:auto` smartly autonomous via a **three-tier setup-resolution contract** (see `feedback_auto_mode_ask_only_when_ambiguous.md`):

1. **Resolve confidently first** — when the command can resolve every required input from `$ARGUMENTS` flags, a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block in the prompt body, or documented sensible defaults, skip the question block entirely. Persist resolved values to `deep-review-config.json` and load the YAML workflow without a round-trip.

2. **Ask one targeted clarification when genuinely ambiguous** — when exactly one or two fields are genuinely ambiguous AND no sensible default exists (e.g. target path matches multiple candidates, or a destructive-scope choice has no safe default), emit ONE narrow question rather than the full Q0..Q-Exec block. If stdin is closed and no answer arrives, fall through to step 3.

3. **Fail fast as last resort** — when required inputs are genuinely unresolvable AND no defaults rescue them AND targeted-clarification produced no answer, exit non-zero with a clear named-missing-inputs error. Never hang on stdin.

`:auto` does NOT mean "never ask" (too rigid) and does NOT mean "always ask the full block" (too soft). It means "ask only when uncertain or ambiguous."
<!-- /ANCHOR:problem -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:scope -->
## 3. SCOPE

### In Scope
- Audit `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` §0 UNIFIED SETUP PHASE to identify which inputs are required vs which can be defaulted under `:auto`, and which carry sensible defaults vs which require explicit user choice.
- Add the three-tier setup-resolution branch under `:auto`:
  - **Tier 1 (resolve)**: when `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS` AND every required input is present via `$ARGUMENTS` flags, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block, OR documented defaults, skip the question block and load YAML.
  - **Tier 2 (targeted ask)**: when 1-2 fields are genuinely ambiguous (e.g. target path matches multiple candidates) AND no sensible default exists, emit ONE narrow question naming only the ambiguous field. Wait briefly; fall through to Tier 3 if no answer.
  - **Tier 3 (fail fast)**: when truly unresolvable, exit non-zero with a clear named-missing-inputs error.
- Define the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema in the command markdown, with named fields matching Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec.
- Document each setup field's default-resolution rule (so reviewers can audit which inputs need targeted asks vs. which can default).
- Update the command's argument-hint and execution-protocol comments to document the three-tier path.
- Add a test scenario covering all three tiers: resolvable (Tier 1 pass), ambiguous (Tier 2 targeted ask), unresolvable (Tier 3 fail-fast).

### Out of Scope
- The YAML workflow itself (`spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`) — its iteration loop already runs non-interactively once loaded.
- The `:confirm` mode — keeps its existing interactive setup behavior.
- Equivalent gaps in `/spec_kit:deep-research:auto` or `/spec_kit:complete:auto` — those have similar architectures but are separate fix packets.
- Changing the SPAWN-AGENT path in cli-codex (different bug, resolved in 102/005 via inline-contract workaround).

<!-- ANCHOR:requirements -->
## 4. REQUIREMENTS

### P0 - Blockers (MUST complete)

| ID | Requirement | Acceptance Criteria |
|----|-------------|---------------------|
| REQ-001 | Tier 1 (resolve): `:auto` skips the question block when required inputs are resolvable from `$ARGUMENTS`, pre-binding markers, or sensible defaults. | Dispatch `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/.../X" --max-iterations=5` via `codex exec </dev/null` succeeds end-to-end with no setup-phase question emitted. |
| REQ-002 | Tier 2 (targeted ask): when 1-2 fields are ambiguous AND no default exists, `:auto` emits ONE narrow question — never the full Q0..Q-Exec block. | Construct an ambiguous-target case (e.g. target string matches two spec folders); dispatch emits a single clarification question naming only the ambiguous field, not the consolidated block. |
| REQ-003 | Tier 3 (fail fast): `:auto` exits non-zero with a clear named-missing-inputs error when truly unresolvable AND targeted-clarification gets no answer. | Dispatch `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""` (empty arguments) via `codex exec </dev/null` exits non-zero within 10 seconds with an explicit missing-inputs error. |
| REQ-004 | Pre-binding marker schema documented in the command markdown. | Reading `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` reveals an explicit `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` schema with field names + types + a documented default-resolution rule per field. |

### P1 - Required (complete OR user-approved deferral)

| ID | Requirement | Acceptance Criteria |
|----|-------------|---------------------|
| REQ-005 | `:confirm` mode behavior unchanged. | Existing interactive setup tests still pass; `:confirm` still emits the full consolidated question block. |
| REQ-006 | Test scenario covers all three tiers (resolvable / ambiguous / unresolvable). | Scenario file exists; three dispatch verdicts captured as evidence. |
| REQ-007 | Each setup field's default-resolution rule documented inline. | For every field in the schema, the command markdown notes how it resolves (flag / marker / default / requires-ask). |
<!-- /ANCHOR:requirements -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:success-criteria -->
## 5. SUCCESS CRITERIA

- **SC-001 (Tier 1)**: `:auto` dispatch with resolvable inputs loads YAML workflow without emitting any setup question.
- **SC-002 (Tier 2)**: `:auto` dispatch with one ambiguous field emits a single targeted question naming only that field — not the full consolidated block.
- **SC-003 (Tier 3)**: `:auto` dispatch with truly unresolvable inputs exits non-zero with a named-missing-inputs error within 10 seconds.
- **SC-004**: `:confirm` dispatch retains its existing full-block interactive question behavior.
- **SC-005**: A re-dispatch of the 102/004 Stage E scenario (or equivalent) succeeds without the prompt-side pre-binding workaround currently applied — the command's own Tier 1 resolution covers it.

<!-- ANCHOR:risks -->
## 6. RISKS & DEPENDENCIES

| Type | Item | Impact | Mitigation |
|------|------|--------|------------|
| Risk | Existing dispatches that rely on the current behavior (silent stdin hang OR interactive default) break | Workflow regression for active reviews | Keep `:confirm` mode unchanged; only `:auto` mode gains the fail-fast/skip-question branch. |
| Risk | Pre-binding marker format conflicts with an existing convention | Markdown parser ambiguity | Use an unambiguous block-style marker (`PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` followed by indented key=value lines) that doesn't collide with any other command convention. |
| Risk | YAML workflow setup-step assumes resolved values come from the question block | YAML steps fail if resolved values come from a different path | Audit `step_init` / `step_resolve_setup` and any YAML step that reads setup state; ensure both paths converge to the same `deep-review-config.json` shape. |
| Dependency | `/spec_kit:deep-review` command markdown is the canonical entrypoint | Setup changes must live in the markdown, not the YAML | Most edits land in the .md; YAML may need a small consumer-side update. |
<!-- /ANCHOR:risks -->

<!-- ANCHOR:nfr -->
## L2: NON-FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS

### Performance
- **NFR-P01**: Non-interactive setup resolution adds < 1 second to dispatch wall-clock.
- **NFR-P02**: Fail-fast error path returns within 10 seconds when inputs are missing.

### Security
- **NFR-S01**: No new secrets, tokens, or credentials handled.
- **NFR-S02**: Pre-binding markers do not introduce arbitrary command execution paths.

### Reliability
- **NFR-R01**: Behavior is deterministic — same `$ARGUMENTS` + same pre-binding markers always produce the same resolved `deep-review-config.json`.
- **NFR-R02**: No regressions in `:confirm` mode.
<!-- /ANCHOR:nfr -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:edge-cases -->
## L2: EDGE CASES

### Data Boundaries
- `$ARGUMENTS` has target but no flags: AUTONOMOUS mode falls back to defaults for maxIterations / convergenceThreshold / executor.
- `$ARGUMENTS` empty AND no pre-binding markers: fail fast with named missing inputs.
- Target points at a phase parent: AUTONOMOUS picks "parent-level review of all children" as the default scope (no question).
- Target points at non-existent path: fail fast within `step_resolve_target`.

### Error Scenarios
- Malformed pre-binding markers: fail fast with parse-error message naming the offending line.
- Unknown setup field in pre-binding markers: warn but continue, applying known fields.
- Auth missing for selected executor (e.g. `--executor=cli-codex` but codex not installed): fail at executor-config validation, not at setup.

### State Transitions
- Setup blocked → Setup resolved: skip if AUTONOMOUS + resolvable; ask if INTERACTIVE; fail if AUTONOMOUS + unresolvable.
- Setup resolved → YAML loaded: identical for both paths.

<!-- ANCHOR:questions -->
## 7. OPEN QUESTIONS

- Pre-binding marker spelling: `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` (matches workaround used in 102/004 Stage E) or `SETUP_RESOLVED:` (tighter machine-parseable form) — decide during implementation based on parser readability.
- Should the non-interactive setup-bypass also apply to `/spec_kit:deep-research:auto`, `/spec_kit:complete:auto`, and `/spec_kit:implement:auto`? Out of scope here but worth tracking as follow-on packets if the bypass pattern works.

# Implementation Plan: deep-review :auto non-interactive setup bypass

<!-- SPECKIT_LEVEL: 2 -->
<!-- SPECKIT_TEMPLATE_SOURCE: plan-core | v2.2 -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:summary -->
## 1. SUMMARY

### Technical Context

| Aspect | Value |
|--------|-------|
| **Language/Stack** | Markdown command + YAML workflow + spec-kit runtime |
| **Framework** | system-spec-kit deep-loop infrastructure |
| **Storage** | Filesystem; review/ dir per packet |
| **Testing** | Live dispatch via codex exec + opencode run; existing strict-validate |

### Overview
Audit `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` §0 UNIFIED SETUP PHASE. Implement a three-tier setup-resolution contract under `:auto`:
- **Tier 1 (resolve)**: when every required input resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block, or documented defaults → skip the question block, load YAML.
- **Tier 2 (targeted ask)**: when 1-2 fields are genuinely ambiguous AND no sensible default exists → emit ONE narrow question naming only the ambiguous field. Wait briefly; fall through to Tier 3 on stdin EOF.
- **Tier 3 (fail fast)**: when truly unresolvable → exit non-zero with a clear named-missing-inputs error.

Verification scenarios cover all three tiers.
<!-- /ANCHOR:summary -->

<!-- ANCHOR:quality-gates -->
## 2. QUALITY GATES

### Definition of Ready
- [ ] Existing deep-review setup flow audited (`.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` + YAML asset).
- [ ] Pre-binding marker schema decided (field names + types match existing Q0..Q-Exec).
- [ ] Test target spec folder selected (a small Level 1 or Level 2 packet that can take a 3-iter deep-review fast).

### Definition of Done
- [ ] All P0 checklist items marked `[x]` with evidence.
- [ ] All P1 checklist items marked `[x]` or carry user-approved deferral.
- [ ] `bash validate.sh --strict 028` exits 0.
- [ ] Verification scenario passes via both codex exec AND opencode run non-interactive dispatches.
<!-- /ANCHOR:quality-gates -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:architecture -->
## 3. ARCHITECTURE

### Pattern
Three-tier setup resolution under `:auto`, with `:confirm` keeping its existing single-branch behavior. Implemented inside the command markdown's §0:

- **`:confirm` (unchanged)**: emit consolidated question block + wait for user.
- **`:auto` Tier 1 (resolve)**: every required input resolves from `$ARGUMENTS` + pre-binding markers + defaults → persist to `deep-review-config.json` → load YAML directly.
- **`:auto` Tier 2 (targeted ask)**: 1-2 fields ambiguous AND no default → emit ONE narrow question naming only the ambiguous field → wait briefly → on answer, merge into resolved map and proceed to Tier 1's persistence step; on stdin EOF, fall through to Tier 3.
- **`:auto` Tier 3 (fail fast)**: truly unresolvable → exit non-zero with a named-missing-inputs error.

### Key Components
- **`.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` §0**: tier selector; documents the pre-binding marker schema + per-field default-resolution rules.
- **Pre-binding marker block** (`PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`): structured block in the dispatched prompt the setup phase parses for setup field values.
- **Per-field default-resolution rules**: for each setup field (target, mode, dims, maxIter, convergence, executor), document whether it has a sensible default, an inferable value, or requires a user choice.
- **Ambiguity detector**: logic that flags a field as Tier-2-eligible only when (a) no flag, (b) no marker, (c) no default, but (d) the field is genuinely required.
- **Fail-fast error emitter**: clear named-missing-inputs message when Tier 3 fires.
- **YAML init step**: unchanged consumer; reads resolved `deep-review-config.json` regardless of which tier produced it.

### Data Flow
1. Command receives `$ARGUMENTS` with target + flags + `:auto` suffix.
2. Setup phase parses `$ARGUMENTS` → resolved inputs map (target, mode, dims, maxIter, convergence, executor).
3. Setup phase scans the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block → merges values into the resolved map.
4. Setup phase applies documented defaults to any unresolved field that has one.
5. Setup phase classifies remaining unresolved fields:
   - **Zero unresolved required fields** → Tier 1: persist config, load YAML, continue.
   - **1-2 unresolved required fields, all ambiguity-detectable** → Tier 2: emit one targeted question per field; on answer, merge and go to step 4 again.
   - **More than 2 unresolved, OR Tier 2 produced no answer (stdin EOF)** → Tier 3: emit fail-fast error, exit non-zero.

<!-- ANCHOR:phases -->
## 4. IMPLEMENTATION PHASES

### Phase 1: Setup
- [ ] Audit `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` §0 — identify all required inputs and their default-resolution paths.
- [ ] Audit `assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml` setup steps — note which fields it reads from `deep-review-config.json`.
- [ ] Decide pre-binding marker schema (block name + field syntax + ordering).

### Phase 2: Core Implementation
- [ ] Add the non-interactive branch to deep-review.md §0.
- [ ] Document the pre-binding marker schema in the same file.
- [ ] Add the fail-fast error emitter.
- [ ] If YAML init step needs adjustment, update it.

### Phase 3: Verification
- [ ] Author the verification scenario (file + Setup block dispatching non-interactively).
- [ ] Run the scenario via codex exec — must succeed.
- [ ] Run the scenario via opencode run --pure — must succeed.
- [ ] Run a fail-case dispatch (`:auto` with empty args) — must exit non-zero with named-missing-inputs error.
- [ ] Confirm `:confirm` mode untouched: run a `:confirm` dispatch and verify it still asks the question block.

<!-- ANCHOR:testing -->
## 5. TESTING STRATEGY

| Test Type | Scope | Tools |
|-----------|-------|-------|
| Live dispatch | Non-interactive `:auto` end-to-end | codex exec + opencode run --pure |
| Fail-fast | `:auto` with empty args | codex exec </dev/null |
| Regression | `:confirm` mode unchanged | manual interactive run |
| Strict validate | Spec folder | `validate.sh --strict 028` |
<!-- /ANCHOR:testing -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:dependencies -->
## 6. DEPENDENCIES

| Dependency | Type | Status | Impact if Blocked |
|------------|------|--------|-------------------|
| `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` | Internal | Green | Cannot edit setup phase. |
| `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml` | Internal | Green | May need consumer-side adjustment. |
| cli-codex + cli-opencode binaries | External | Green | Verification scenario needs both. |
| Test target spec folder (a small Level 1 or 2 packet for fast iteration) | Internal | Green | Pick one; revert any changes after testing. |
<!-- /ANCHOR:dependencies -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:rollback -->
## 7. ROLLBACK PLAN

- **Trigger**: Existing `:confirm` flow regresses, or `:auto` no longer loads YAML after the change.
- **Procedure**: `git restore .opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` + (if touched) `git restore assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. Verification scenario remains for retry.
- **State preserved**: 028 spec folder, audit notes in scratch/, any partial scenario edits.
<!-- /ANCHOR:rollback -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:phase-deps -->
## 8. PHASE DEPENDENCIES

| Phase | Depends On | Provides | Notes |
|-------|-----------|----------|-------|
| Phase 1: Setup | command + YAML files exist | Audit notes + schema decision | No writes. |
| Phase 2: Implementation | Phase 1 | Non-interactive branch in deep-review.md | Single-file edit primarily. |
| Phase 3: Verification | Phase 2 | Test scenario + 3 dispatch verdicts | Closes packet. |
<!-- /ANCHOR:phase-deps -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:effort -->
## 9. EFFORT ESTIMATION

| Activity | Estimate | Drivers |
|----------|----------|---------|
| Setup audit | 15 min | Read command md + YAML; map resolution paths. |
| Schema decision | 10 min | Match Q0..Q-Exec field names exactly. |
| Implementation | 30-45 min | Markdown edits + fail-fast error + possibly YAML consumer update. |
| Verification | 20 min | 3 dispatches (codex pass / opencode pass / codex fail) + strict-validate. |
| **Total** | **~90 min** | Single-session execution feasible. |
<!-- /ANCHOR:effort -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:enhanced-rollback -->
## 10. ENHANCED ROLLBACK

### Failure Modes

| Failure Mode | Trigger | Rollback Action |
|--------------|---------|-----------------|
| `:confirm` regression | Manual confirm dispatch loses its question block | `git restore` deep-review.md; re-audit branch-selector logic |
| YAML init step fails to read resolved config | YAML expects an existing field shape that the new branch doesn't populate | Trace `step_resolve_setup` consumer; ensure both branches produce identical `deep-review-config.json` shape |
| Pre-binding marker parser collides with existing convention | Markdown emits unexpected output during setup | Tighten the marker regex; rename block if needed |
| Fail-fast error swallowed | `:auto` with empty args still hangs | Add an early-exit check at the top of §0 before any other logic |

### State Preserved Across Rollback
- 028 spec folder intact.
- Pre-existing 102/004 prompt-side workaround still works (we don't depend on this fix for 102 to keep passing).
- All other spec-kit commands unaffected.

### Recovery Procedure
1. Identify which dispatch failed (codex / opencode / fail-case / confirm-regression).
2. Inspect transcript for the failure mode.
3. Targeted `git restore` of touched files.
4. Re-implement with the failure-mode fix applied.
5. Re-run all 4 verification dispatches before claiming completion.

| `[B]` | Blocked |

**Task Format**: `T### [P?] Description (file path)`
<!-- /ANCHOR:notation -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:phase-1 -->
## Phase 1: Setup

- [ ] T001 Read `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md` §0 UNIFIED SETUP PHASE; map every Q0..Q-Exec input to its source (flag, default, ask).
- [ ] T002 Read `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml` setup steps; note which fields it reads from `deep-review-config.json`.
- [ ] T003 Decide pre-binding marker block name and field syntax.
- [ ] T004 Pick a small test target spec folder for verification dispatches (Level 1 or 2; cheap to deep-review).
<!-- /ANCHOR:phase-1 -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:phase-2 -->
## Phase 2: Implementation

- [ ] T010 Add non-interactive branch to deep-review.md §0 — when AUTONOMOUS + resolvable, skip question block.
- [ ] T011 Document the pre-binding marker schema in deep-review.md (new subsection under §0).
- [ ] T012 Add fail-fast error emitter for AUTONOMOUS + unresolved case.
- [ ] T013 If YAML init step needs adjustment to read from the new branch's config shape, update it.
- [ ] T014 Update command argument-hint comment to reference the new bypass path.
<!-- /ANCHOR:phase-2 -->

---

<!-- ANCHOR:phase-3 -->
## Phase 3: Verification

- [ ] T020 Author verification scenario (file + non-interactive Setup block).
- [ ] T021 Dispatch verification scenario via `codex exec` — must load YAML + run iteration loop without setup question.
- [ ] T022 Dispatch verification scenario via `opencode run --pure` — same.
- [ ] T023 Dispatch `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""` (empty args) via `codex exec </dev/null` — must exit non-zero within 10s with named-missing-inputs error.
- [ ] T024 Manual `:confirm` dispatch — must still emit the question block (regression check).
- [ ] T025 Run `validate.sh --strict` against this folder; exit 0.
- [ ] T026 Populate `implementation-summary.md` with audit notes, design decisions, dispatch evidence pointers.
- [ ] T027 Update `_memory.continuity` blocks to `completion_pct: 100`.

codex
The spec confirms this is intentionally a command-contract change, not a YAML loop change. One mismatch I’m already noting: the packet’s older plan wanted live dispatches, but your runtime rules narrow verification to read-back plus dry-run traces, so I’ll follow the newer constraint.

> **EXECUTION PROTOCOL -- READ FIRST**
>
> This command runs a structured YAML workflow. Do NOT dispatch agents from this document.
>
> **YOUR FIRST ACTION:**
> 1. Run the unified setup phase in this Markdown entrypoint and resolve:
>    - `review_target`
>    - `review_target_type`
>    - `review_dimensions`
>    - `spec_folder`
>    - `execution_mode`
>    - `maxIterations`
>    - `convergenceThreshold`
> 2. Load the corresponding YAML file from `assets/` only after all setup values are resolved:
>    - Auto: `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`
>    - Confirm: `spec_kit_deep-review_confirm.yaml`
> 3. Execute the YAML workflow step by step using those resolved values
>
> All content below is reference context for the YAML workflow. Do not treat reference sections as direct instructions to execute.

## CONSTRAINTS

- **DO NOT** dispatch any agent from this document
- **ALL** agent dispatching is handled by the YAML workflow steps
- **MARKDOWN OWNS SETUP**: resolve setup inputs here first, then hand off to YAML
- **YAML START CONDITION**: do not load YAML until ALL required inputs are bound:
  - `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`

> **Canonical mode syntax:** use attached command suffixes (`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto`, `/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm`) and keep AGENTS, skills, and quick references synchronized to this entrypoint.

# SINGLE CONSOLIDATED SETUP PROMPT

This workflow gathers all setup inputs in one prompt. Confirm mode still includes multiple approval gates after setup; only the setup round-trip is consolidated here.

---

## 0. UNIFIED SETUP PHASE

**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: This prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.

**STATUS: BLOCKED**

```
EXECUTE THIS SINGLE CONSOLIDATED PROMPT:

1. CHECK for mode suffix:
   |-- ":auto"    -> execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"
   |-- ":confirm" -> execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"
   +-- No suffix  -> execution_mode = "ASK" (include Q2)

2. CHECK $ARGUMENTS for target (review_target):
   |-- Has content (ignoring suffixes and flags):
   |     -> review_target = $ARGUMENTS, omit Q0
   +-- Empty -> include Q0

3. PARSE optional flags from $ARGUMENTS:
   |-- --max-iterations=N -> maxIterations = N
   |-- --convergence=N -> convergenceThreshold = N
   |-- --spec-folder=PATH -> spec_path = PATH, omit Q1
   |-- --executor=<type> -> config.executor.type (`native` | `cli-codex`)
   |-- --model=<id> -> config.executor.model (for example `gpt-5.4`)
   |-- --reasoning-effort=<level> -> config.executor.reasoningEffort (`none` | `minimal` | `low` | `medium` | `high` | `xhigh`)
   |-- --service-tier=<tier> -> config.executor.serviceTier (`priority` | `standard` | `fast`)
   |-- --executor-timeout=<seconds> -> config.executor.timeoutSeconds (positive integer, default `900`)
   |-- --no-resource-map -> config.resource_map.emit = false
   +-- Defaults: maxIterations=7, convergenceThreshold=0.10, config.executor.type=`native`, config.executor.timeoutSeconds=900, config.resource_map.emit=`true`

   Executor precedence for setup resolution:
   - CLI flag > config file > schema defaults
   - The generated `deep-review-config.json` stores executor settings under `config.executor.*`

   Parsing to config mapping:
   - `--executor` -> `config.executor.type`
   - `--model` -> `config.executor.model`
   - `--reasoning-effort` -> `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
   - `--service-tier` -> `config.executor.serviceTier`
   - `--executor-timeout` -> `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`

   Validation hook:
   - `parseExecutorConfig` from `.opencode/skills/system-spec-kit/mcp_server/lib/deep-loop/executor-config.ts` runs at config-write time
   - Invalid combinations fail fast with clear errors, including `cli-codex` without `--model` and reserved-but-unwired executor kinds

4. Search for related spec folders across alias roots:
   $ find specs .opencode/specs -mindepth 2 -maxdepth 2 -type d 2>/dev/null | sort | tail -10

5. Search for prior work (background):
   - memory_context({ input: review_target OR "deep-review", mode: "focused", includeContent: true })
   - Store: prior_work_found = [yes/no]

6. ASK with SINGLE prompt (include only applicable questions):
   - Include Q-Exec only when `--executor` is NOT present and the target text does NOT already mention executor hints such as `cli-codex`, `codex`, or `gpt-5.4`
   - If Q-Exec is omitted and no executor is otherwise resolved, default to `native`

   Q0. Review Target (if not in command): What to review?
     Examples: spec folder path, `skill:sk-name`, `agent:name`, `track:NN--name`, or file paths/globs

   Q1_type. Review Target Type (auto-detect from Q0, confirm):
     A) spec-folder -- Review spec artifacts + implementation files
     B) skill -- SKILL.md + references/ + assets/ + agents + commands
     C) agent -- Agent family across all runtimes
     D) track -- All child spec folders in a feature track
     E) files -- Arbitrary file paths or globs

   Q_dims. Which review dimensions? (default: all 4)
     All: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
     Or specify a subset (e.g., "correctness, security")

   Q1. Spec Folder (required):
     A) Use existing [suggest if found]
     B) Create new under `specs/[track]/[###]-[slug]/` (accept `.opencode/specs/` alias roots when already in use)
     C) Update related [if match found]
     D) Phase folder (e.g., `specs/NN-track/NNN-name/001-phase/` or matching `.opencode/specs/` alias)

   Q2. Execution Mode (if no suffix):
     A) Autonomous -- all iterations without approval
     B) Interactive -- pause at each iteration for review

   Q3. Max Iterations (if not set via flag):
     Default is 7 for review. Change? [Enter number or press enter for default]

   Q-Exec. Executor (optional, press enter for default):
     A) Native (default) — dispatch via @deep-review agent with Opus.
     B) cli-codex — `codex exec` with --model X -c model_reasoning_effort -c service_tier.
     C) cli-gemini — `gemini "PROMPT" -m gemini-3.1-pro-preview -y -o text`. Single supported model currently. No reasoning-effort or service-tier.
     D) cli-claude-code — `claude -p "PROMPT" --model X --permission-mode acceptEdits` with optional --effort. No service-tier.

   Reply format examples:
   - `"skill:deep-research, B, all, A, A"`
   - `"review the deep-review packet output, E, correctness security, B, B, 5"`
   - `"Review review/review-report.md contract drift, E, all, A, 7, 0.10, B, gpt-5.4, high, fast"`
   - `"review executor drift across CLIs, E, all, A, 7, 0.10, C, gpt-5.4, _, _"`

7. WAIT for user response (DO NOT PROCEED)

8. Parse response and store ALL results:
   - review_target = [from Q0 or $ARGUMENTS]
   - review_target_type = [from Q1_type, auto-detected]
   - review_dimensions = [from Q_dims or default "all"]
   - spec_choice = [A/B/C/D from Q1]
   - spec_path = [derived path]
   - execution_mode = [AUTONOMOUS/INTERACTIVE]
   - maxIterations = [from Q3 or flag or default 7]
   - convergenceThreshold = [from flag or default 0.10]
   - executor config = [CLI flags, compact reply, config file, or default `native`; map compact reply fields to `config.executor.type/model/reasoningEffort/serviceTier`, and accept an optional volunteered convergence value before executor fields]

9. SET STATUS: PASSED

STOP HERE - Wait for user answers before continuing.

DO NOT proceed until user explicitly answers
NEVER auto-create spec folders without confirmation
NEVER split questions into multiple prompts
```

**Phase Output:**

- `review_target` | `review_target_type` | `review_dimensions`
- `spec_choice` | `spec_path` | `execution_mode` | `maxIterations` | `convergenceThreshold`

# Deep Review

Conduct autonomous iterative code review with convergence detection. Each iteration dispatches a fresh LEAF agent (`@deep-review`) that reads externalized state, performs focused review work across configured dimensions, and writes findings to files.

```yaml
role: Deep Review Loop Manager
purpose: Run iterative review cycles until convergence or max iterations
action: Execute YAML workflow managing init, loop, synthesis, and save phases
operating_mode:
  workflow: iterative_loop
  compliance: MANDATORY
  execution: autonomous_or_interactive
  validation: convergence_detection
```

---

## 1. PURPOSE

Run an iterative loop for code review: Initialize the review packet under `{artifact_dir}` (resolved via `resolveArtifactRoot()` — root specs use `{spec_folder}/review/`; child phases and sub-phases use `{spec_folder}/review/{packet}-pt-{NN}/`), dispatch `@deep-review` agent per iteration, evaluate convergence across review dimensions, synthesize findings into `{artifact_dir}/review-report.md`, and emit `{artifact_dir}/resource-map.md` at convergence unless `--no-resource-map` disables it. Use when auditing code, specs, skills, agents, or tracks for quality and release readiness.

---

## 2. CONTRACT

**Inputs:** `$ARGUMENTS` -- Review target with optional flags and mode suffix
**Outputs:** Spec folder with `{artifact_dir}/` packet (`{spec_folder}/review/` for root specs or `{spec_folder}/review/{packet}-pt-{NN}/` for nested phases), `review-report.md`, optional `resource-map.md`, state files, and `STATUS=<OK|FAIL|CANCELLED>`

---

## 3. WORKFLOW OVERVIEW

| Phase | Name | Purpose | Outputs |
|-------|------|---------|---------|
| Init | Initialize | Scope discovery, resolve files, create config + strategy with review dimensions | Review packet in `{spec_folder}/review/` |
| Loop | Iterate | Dispatch @deep-review agent per dimension, evaluate review convergence + quality guards | `review/iterations/iteration-NNN.md` files, `review/deep-review-dashboard.md` |
| Synth | Synthesize | Build finding registry, emit `review/resource-map.md`, deduplicate, compile `review/review-report.md` | `review/resource-map.md`, `review/review-report.md` (9 sections) |
| Save | Preserve | Refresh continuity update in canonical spec docs | canonical spec doc updated via `generate-context.js` |

### Execution Modes

| Mode | Invocation | Behavior |
|------|-----------|----------|
| `:auto` | `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "target"` | All iterations without approval |
| `:confirm` | `/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "target"` | Multi-gate review at setup, iteration, and synthesis |
| (default) | `/spec_kit:deep-review "target"` | Ask user to choose mode during setup |

---

## 4. KEY BEHAVIORS

### Autonomous Mode (`:auto`)

- Executes all iterations without user approval gates
- Self-validates at each convergence checkpoint
- Makes informed decisions on dimension ordering and iteration focus
- Documents all significant decisions in `review/deep-review-dashboard.md`
- Stops when convergence threshold is met or max iterations reached

### Interactive Mode (`:confirm`)

- Pauses after each iteration for user approval
- Presents iteration findings summary with dimension coverage
- Options at each gate: Approve, Review Details, Modify Scope, Skip Dimension, Abort
- Documents user decisions at each checkpoint

## 5. INSTRUCTIONS

After setup phase passes, load and execute the appropriate YAML prompt based on execution_mode:

- **AUTONOMOUS**: `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`
- **INTERACTIVE**: `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_confirm.yaml`

The YAML contains the full loop workflow: initialization, iteration dispatch, convergence detection, synthesis, and memory save.

---

## 6. OUTPUT FORMATS

**Review Success:**
```
Deep review complete.
Iterations: [N] | Stop reason: [converged|max_iterations|all_dimensions_clean]
Findings: P0=[N] P1=[N] P2=[N] | Verdict: [PASS|CONDITIONAL|FAIL] [PASS may include hasAdvisories=true]
Artifacts: review/review-report.md, review/resource-map.md (unless `--no-resource-map`), [N] iteration files in review/, continuity update in canonical spec docs refreshed
Ready for: /spec_kit:plan [remediation] (if FAIL/CONDITIONAL)
STATUS=OK PATH=[spec-folder-path]
```

**Failure:**
```
Error: [error description]  Phase: [phase name]
STATUS=FAIL ERROR="[message]"
```

---

## 7. MEMORY INTEGRATION

### Before Starting
- `memory_context({ input: review_target, intent: "understand" })` -- Load prior review context
- Inject results into strategy.md "Known Context" section

### Code Context Bootstrap
- Use CocoIndex (`mcp__cocoindex_code__search`) to find relevant code examples before starting review
- Query: 2-5 word concept descriptions related to the review target
- Inject discovered code patterns into strategy.md "Known Context" section alongside memory findings

### After Completing
- `node .opencode/skills/system-spec-kit/scripts/dist/memory/generate-context.js /tmp/save-context-data-<session-id>.json [spec-folder]`
- Verify that the canonical save routed continuity into the expected packet doc (decision-record.md / implementation-summary.md / handover.md)

### Anchor Tags (Automatic)
`ANCHOR:deep-review-[target]`, `ANCHOR:findings`, `ANCHOR:convergence-report`

## 10. NEXT STEPS

| Condition | Suggested Command | Reason |
|-----------|-------------------|--------|
| Review FAIL/CONDITIONAL, need fixes | `/spec_kit:plan [remediation]` | Plan remediation from review findings |
| Review PASS, ready for release | `/create:changelog` | Generate changelog entry |
| Need to fix specific findings | `/spec_kit:implement [spec-folder]` | Implement fixes from existing plan |
| Need more investigation | `/spec_kit:deep-research [topic]` | Deep research session for unclear areas |
| Want to refresh search support | `/memory:save [spec-folder]` | Refresh the indexed canonical spec document while canonical continuity stays in spec docs |

---

## 11. ERROR HANDLING

| Error | Action |
|-------|--------|
| Agent dispatch timeout | Retry once with reduced scope, then mark timeout |
| State file missing | Reconstruct from iteration files |
| 3+ consecutive failures | Halt loop, enter synthesis with partial findings |
| Memory save failure | Preserve the `review/` packet as backup |

---

## 12. KEY FEATURES

### Review Dimensions
- Iterative (multi-pass) code/spec audit across configurable dimensions
- Dimension ordering follows risk priority (correctness and security first)
- Each dimension can be individually included or excluded

### Severity and Verdicts
- Three severity levels: P0 (Blocker), P1 (Required), P2 (Suggestion)
- Three verdicts: PASS, CONDITIONAL, FAIL
- PASS may include `hasAdvisories=true` when P2 findings exist
- P0 override: new P0 findings block convergence regardless of threshold

### Convergence Detection
- Severity-weighted `newFindingsRatio` with rolling average
- MAD noise-floor test for robust churn detection
- Dimension coverage as convergence signal (all required dimensions must be reviewed)
- Three binary quality gates (evidence, scope, coverage) must pass before STOP

### Adversarial Self-Check
- Runs on all P0 findings to validate evidence quality
- Cross-reference verification across spec/code/test boundaries
- Finding deduplication and progressive synthesis

### Agent Model
- Dispatches `@deep-review` LEAF agent per iteration (fresh context each time)
- Externalized state via JSONL + strategy files (no context degradation)
- Review target is READ-ONLY (agent never modifies reviewed code)
- Does NOT proceed to implementation (outputs remediation plan for `/spec_kit:plan`)

---

## 13. COMMAND CHAIN

**Review path (findings):** `/spec_kit:deep-review` -> (if FAIL/CONDITIONAL) `/spec_kit:plan` -> `/spec_kit:implement`
**Review path (clean):** `/spec_kit:deep-review` -> (if PASS) `/create:changelog`

---

## 14. OFFLINE OPTIMIZATION

Convergence thresholds and recovery settings used by this command are a governed maintenance surface managed by the offline loop optimizer (042.004). The optimizer tunes deterministic numeric thresholds offline against real run traces and emits advisory-only candidate patches.

**Key constraints:**
- Optimization is offline only -- it does not run during live review sessions
- Promotion is advisory-only until replay fixtures and behavioral suites exist
- Prompt optimization is deferred future work (Phase 4b) and will use generated prompt packs, never direct agent markdown mutation

**References:**
- Optimizer configuration: `.opencode/skills/system-spec-kit/scripts/optimizer/optimizer-control file.json`
- Tunable thresholds: `convergenceThreshold`, `stuckThreshold`, `maxIterations`, `compositeStopScore`
- Convergence reference: `.opencode/skills/deep-review/references/convergence.md`

          0. CLAIM-ADJUDICATION PRE-CHECK (universal STOP veto; runs before hard stops and composite convergence):
             claim_adjudication_gate_pass = (last_claim_adjudication_passed != false) OR (p0_count + p1_count == 0)
             If claim_adjudication_gate_pass == false:
               candidate_decision = "BLOCKED"
               stop_blocked = true
               stopReason = "blockedStop"
               blocked_gates = ["claimAdjudicationGate"]
               recovery_strategy = "Reviewer must add typed claim-adjudication packets (claim, evidenceRefs, counterevidenceSought, alternativeExplanation, finalSeverity, confidence, downgradeTrigger) for every active P0/P1 finding before STOP is allowed."
               Skip hard stops (1) and composite convergence (4); proceed directly to step 5 legal-stop decision-tree assembly so blocked_by_json, gate outputs, and the blocked_stop event still populate consistently.
          1. HARD STOPS:
             a) if iteration_count >= max_iterations: set decision = "STOP", stopReason = "maxIterationsReached", hard_stop_reason = "max_iterations_reached", preserve any failed legal-stop gates as terminal evidence, and proceed to synthesis without legal-stop veto
             b) if all dimensions clean AND required traceability protocols are covered AND p0_count == 0 AND p1_count == 0 AND coverage_age >= 1 AND all quality gates pass (evidence: every P0/P1 has file:line; scope: all findings within target; coverage: all dimensions reviewed): mark hard_stop_reason = "all_dimensions_clean" and promote to STOP candidate
             Operator stop reasons (`maxIterationsReached`, `manualStop`, `userPaused`, unrecoverable `error`) are terminal ceilings. They do not hide failed gates; they record them in synthesis and stop dispatch.
          2. STUCK DETECTION (threshold 2):
             if stuck_count >= 2: STUCK_RECOVERY
          3. GRAPH CONVERGENCE PREREQUISITE:
               graph_decision, graph_signals_json, and graph_blockers_json are already populated by step_graph_convergence.
               Final STOP is never legal unless the inline review vote says STOP AND graph_decision == "STOP_ALLOWED".
               If graph_decision == "STOP_BLOCKED", set stop_blocked = true and route through blocked_stop emission instead of stopping.
          4. COMPOSITE CONVERGENCE (3-signal weighted vote with split thresholds):
               signals = []
               a) Rolling average (w=0.30, window=2, needs 2+ iterations):
                  avg = mean(last 2 newFindingsRatios)
                  stop if avg <= 0.08
               b) MAD noise floor (w=0.25, needs 3+ iterations):
                  noiseFloor = MAD(all ratios) * 1.4826
                  stop if latest ratio <= noiseFloor
               c) Dimension coverage (w=0.45):
                  coverage = dimensions_covered / total_dimensions
                  stop if coverage >= 1.0 AND required traceability protocols are covered AND coverage_age >= 1
               Redistribute weights for unavailable signals.
               if latest ratio <= 0.05: mark no_progress_threshold_reached
               if weighted_stop_score >= 0.60: inline STOP becomes a candidate and binary gates must run
          5. LEGAL-STOP DECISION TREE (review-specific gates; runs whenever step 0, all-dimensions-clean, or the composite vote promotes STOP to a candidate; terminal max-iteration/manual/error stops bypass veto and record failed gates as evidence):
               a) convergenceGate: pass when a hard-stop condition is met OR weighted_stop_score >= 0.60; record score
               b) dimensionCoverageGate: pass when configured dimensions and required traceability coverage are complete and coverage_age >= 1; record covered and missing dimensions
               c) p0ResolutionGate: pass when activeP0 == 0; record activeP0
               d) evidenceDensityGate: pass when every active P0/P1 has concrete file:line evidence and no active P0/P1 relies only on inference; record avgEvidencePerFinding
               e) hotspotSaturationGate: pass when review hotspots have been revisited enough times to satisfy the saturation heuristic
               f) claimAdjudicationGate: pass when claim_adjudication_gate_pass == true (i.e. last_claim_adjudication_passed != false OR there are no active P0/P1 findings to adjudicate); record last_claim_adjudication_passed and claim_adjudication_active_count
               g) fixCompletenessReplayGate: pass when security_sensitive_fix_scope == false OR every required closed-gate replay row passes with file:line or command evidence and producer/consumer/matrix coverage; record security_sensitive_fix_scope, fix_completeness_replay_required_rows, and fix_completeness_replay_passing_rows
             if STOP is a candidate and any gate fails:

# Spec Kit - Mandatory Conversation Documentation

Orchestrates mandatory spec folder creation for all conversations involving file modifications. Ensures proper documentation level selection (1-3+), template usage, and context preservation through AGENTS.md-enforced workflows.

## 1. WHEN TO USE

### What is a Spec Folder?

A **spec folder** is a numbered directory (e.g., `007-auth-feature/`) that contains documentation for a single feature/task or a coordinated packet of related phase work:

Spec folders may also be nested as coordination-root packets with direct-child phase folders (e.g., `specs/02--track/022-feature/011-phase/002-child/`).

- **Purpose**: Track specifications, plans, tasks, and decisions for one unit of work
- **Location**: Under `specs/` using either `###-short-name/` at the root or nested packet paths for phased coordination
- **Contents**: Markdown files (spec.md, plan.md, tasks.md, and implementation-summary.md when work is complete) plus optional support folders such as `scratch/`, `research/`, or `review/`

Think of it as a "project folder" for AI-assisted development - it keeps context organized and enables session continuity.

### Activation Triggers

**MANDATORY for ALL file modifications:**
- Code files: JS, TS, Python, CSS, HTML
- Documentation: Markdown, README, guides
- Configuration: JSON, YAML, TOML, env templates
- Templates, knowledge base, build/tooling files

**Request patterns that trigger activation:**
- "Add/implement/create [feature]"
- "Fix/update/refactor [code]"
- "Modify/change [configuration]"
- Any keyword: add, implement, fix, update, create, modify, rename, delete, configure, analyze, phase

**Example triggers:**
- "Add email validation to the signup form" → Level 1-2
- "Refactor the authentication module" → Level 2-3
- "Fix the button alignment bug" → Level 1
- "Implement user dashboard with analytics" → Level 3

### When NOT to Use

- Pure exploration/reading (no file modifications)
- Single typo fixes (<5 characters in one file)
- Whitespace-only changes
- Auto-generated file updates (package-lock.json)
- User explicitly selects Option D (skip documentation)

**Rule of thumb:** If modifying ANY file content → Activate this skill.
Status: ✅ This requirement applies immediately once file edits are requested.

### Distributed Governance Rule

Any agent writing authored spec folder docs (`spec.md`, `plan.md`, `tasks.md`, `checklist.md`, `implementation-summary.md`, `decision-record.md`, `handover.md`, `review-report.md`, `debug-delegation.md`, `resource-map.md` (optional)) MUST use contract-backed templates through `create.sh` or the inline renderer. This is a workflow-required gate, not a runtime hook: run `bash .opencode/skills/system-spec-kit/scripts/spec/validate.sh <spec-folder> --strict` after authored spec-doc writes and before completion claims, then route continuity updates through /memory:save. Deep-research workflow-owned packet markdown (`research/iterations/*.md`, `research/deep-research-*.md`, and progressive `research/research.md` loop updates) is exempt from that generic per-write rule; `/spec_kit:deep-research` must instead run targeted strict validation after every `spec.md` mutation it performs. @deep-research retains exclusive write access for `research/research.md`; @debug retains exclusive write access for `debug-delegation.md`.

- `handover.md` stays in the canonical recovery ladder and is maintained through `/memory:save` handover_state routing using the handover template for initial creation.
- `review-report.md` remains owned by `@deep-review` when deep review workflows synthesize findings.
- `resource-map.md` is a peer cross-cutting template under `.opencode/skills/system-spec-kit/templates/`; it remains optional at any level and gives reviewers a lean file ledger alongside `implementation-summary.md`.

### Utility Template Triggers

| Template              | Trigger Keywords                                                                                                              | Action                    |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------- |
| `handover.md`         | "handover", "next session", "continue later", "pass context", "ending session", "save state", "multi-session", "for next AI"  | Suggest `/memory:save` handover maintenance |
| `debug-delegation.md` | "stuck", "can't fix", "tried everything", "same error", "fresh eyes", "hours on this", "still failing", "need help debugging" | Suggest Task-tool debug delegation |

**Rule:** When detected, proactively suggest the appropriate action.

## 2. SMART ROUTING


### Resource Domains

The router discovers markdown resources recursively from `references/` and `assets/` and then applies intent scoring from `RESOURCE_MAP`. Keep this section domain-focused rather than static file inventories.

- `references/memory/` for context retrieval, save workflows, trigger behavior, and indexing.
- `references/templates/` for level selection, template selection, and structure guides.
- `references/validation/` for checklist policy, verification rules, decision formats, and template compliance contracts.
- `references/structure/` for folder organization and sub-folder versioning.
- `references/workflows/` for command workflows and worked examples.
- `references/debugging/` for troubleshooting and root-cause methodology.
- `references/config/` for runtime environment configuration.

### Template and Script Sources of Truth

- Level definitions and template size guidance: level specifications reference
- Template usage and composition rules: [template_guide.md](./references/templates/template_guide.md)
- Use the Level contract for operational templates; `create.sh` and the Level contract resolver share the same template index.
- Use `templates/changelog/` for packet-local nested changelog generation at completion time.
- Script architecture, build outputs, and runtime entrypoints: [scripts/README.md](./scripts/README.md)
- Memory save JSON schema and workflow contracts: [save_workflow.md](./references/memory/save_workflow.md)
- Nested packet changelog workflow: [nested_changelog.md](./references/workflows/nested_changelog.md)

Primary operational scripts:
- `spec/validate.sh`
- `spec/create.sh`
- `spec/archive.sh`
- `spec/check-completion.sh`
- `spec/recommend-level.sh`
- `mcp_server/lib/templates/level-contract-resolver.ts`

CLI exit codes:
- `0`: success.
- `1`: user error such as bad flags or invalid input.
- `2`: validation error.
- `3`: system error such as missing folders, missing manifests, or file I/O failures.

### Resource Loading Levels

| Level       | When to Load               | Resources                    |
| ----------- | -------------------------- | ---------------------------- |
| ALWAYS      | Every skill invocation     | Shared patterns + SKILL.md   |
| CONDITIONAL | If intent signals match   | Intent-mapped references     |
| ON_DEMAND   | Only on explicit request   | Deep-dive quality standards  |

`references/workflows/quick_reference.md` is the primary first-touch command surface. Keep the compact `spec_kit` and `memory` command map there, including `/spec_kit:plan --intake-only` as the standalone intake entry, `/spec_kit:plan` and `/spec_kit:complete` smart delegation notes, and the pointer from `/spec_kit:deep-research` to `../deep-research/references/spec_check_protocol.md`, and use this file only to point readers to it rather than duplicating the full matrix.

### Smart Router Pseudocode

The authoritative routing logic for scoped loading, weighted intent scoring, and ambiguity handling.

- Pattern 1: Runtime Discovery - `discover_markdown_resources()` recursively inventories `references/` and `assets/`.
- Pattern 2: Existence-Check Before Load - `load_if_available()` guards, de-duplicates with `seen`, and checks `inventory`.
- Pattern 3: Extensible Routing Key - command and intent signals select routing labels without static file inventories.
- Pattern 4: Multi-Tier Graceful Fallback - `UNKNOWN_FALLBACK` asks for disambiguation and missing-resource cases return a "no knowledge base" notice.

codex
I’ve finished the ordered reads. The YAML consumer already expects `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, iteration/convergence values, and `resource_map_emit`, so the cleanest change is to make the markdown setup branch converge to that shape without touching the YAML asset.

I’m patching the command doc now. The important structural move is separating `:auto` from `:confirm`: `:auto` resolves, asks narrowly, or fails; `:confirm` keeps the old full question block.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |

+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

## CONSTRAINTS

- **DO NOT** dispatch any agent from this document
- **ALL** agent dispatching is handled by the YAML workflow steps
- **MARKDOWN OWNS SETUP**: resolve setup inputs here first, then hand off to YAML
- **YAML START CONDITION**: do not load YAML until ALL required inputs are bound:
  - `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`

> **Canonical mode syntax:** use attached command suffixes (`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto`, `/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm`) and keep AGENTS, skills, and quick references synchronized to this entrypoint.

# SINGLE CONSOLIDATED SETUP PROMPT

This workflow gathers all setup inputs in one prompt. Confirm mode still includes multiple approval gates after setup; only the setup round-trip is consolidated here.

---

## 0. UNIFIED SETUP PHASE

**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.

For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.

### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`

Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.

#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently

1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
   - `--max-iterations=N`
   - `--convergence=N`
   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
   - `--model=<id>`
   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
   - `--no-resource-map`
   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
   - `maxIterations = 7`
   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
   - `executor = native`
   - `executor_timeout = 900`
   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
4. Validate the resolved map:
   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
5. If every required value is resolved:
   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
     - `reviewTarget`
     - `reviewTargetType`
     - `reviewDimensions`
     - `specFolder`
     - `maxIterations`
     - `convergenceThreshold`
     - `executionMode: "auto"`
     - `resource_map.emit`
     - `config.executor.type`
     - optional `config.executor.model`
     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.

#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask

Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.

- Tier-2-eligible fields:
  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
- Not Tier-2-eligible:
  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).

Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.

Examples:

```
`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
```

```
`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
```

Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.

#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast

Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.

Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:

```
[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
```

Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.

### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)

The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.

```yaml
PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
  maxIterations: 10
  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
```

Rules:

- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.

### Default Resolution Table

| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |

### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode

Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

**STATUS: BLOCKED**

```
EXECUTE THIS SINGLE CONSOLIDATED PROMPT:

1. CHECK for mode suffix:
   |-- ":auto"    -> execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"
   |-- ":confirm" -> execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"
   +-- No suffix  -> execution_mode = "ASK" (include Q2)

2. CHECK $ARGUMENTS for target (review_target):
   |-- Has content (ignoring suffixes and flags):
   |     -> review_target = $ARGUMENTS, omit Q0
   +-- Empty -> include Q0

3. PARSE optional flags from $ARGUMENTS:
   |-- --max-iterations=N -> maxIterations = N
   |-- --convergence=N -> convergenceThreshold = N
   |-- --spec-folder=PATH -> spec_path = PATH, omit Q1
   |-- --executor=<type> -> config.executor.type (`native` | `cli-codex`)
   |-- --model=<id> -> config.executor.model (for example `gpt-5.4`)
   |-- --reasoning-effort=<level> -> config.executor.reasoningEffort (`none` | `minimal` | `low` | `medium` | `high` | `xhigh`)
   |-- --service-tier=<tier> -> config.executor.serviceTier (`priority` | `standard` | `fast`)
   |-- --executor-timeout=<seconds> -> config.executor.timeoutSeconds (positive integer, default `900`)
   |-- --no-resource-map -> config.resource_map.emit = false
   +-- Defaults: maxIterations=7, convergenceThreshold=0.10, config.executor.type=`native`, config.executor.timeoutSeconds=900, config.resource_map.emit=`true`

   Executor precedence for setup resolution:
   - CLI flag > config file > schema defaults
   - The generated `deep-review-config.json` stores executor settings under `config.executor.*`

   Parsing to config mapping:
   - `--executor` -> `config.executor.type`
   - `--model` -> `config.executor.model`
   - `--reasoning-effort` -> `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
   - `--service-tier` -> `config.executor.serviceTier`
   - `--executor-timeout` -> `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`

   Validation hook:
   - `parseExecutorConfig` from `.opencode/skills/system-spec-kit/mcp_server/lib/deep-loop/executor-config.ts` runs at config-write time
   - Invalid combinations fail fast with clear errors, including `cli-codex` without `--model` and reserved-but-unwired executor kinds

4. Search for related spec folders across alias roots:
   $ find specs .opencode/specs -mindepth 2 -maxdepth 2 -type d 2>/dev/null | sort | tail -10

5. Search for prior work (background):
   - memory_context({ input: review_target OR "deep-review", mode: "focused", includeContent: true })
   - Store: prior_work_found = [yes/no]

6. ASK with SINGLE prompt (include only applicable questions):
   - Include Q-Exec only when `--executor` is NOT present and the target text does NOT already mention executor hints such as `cli-codex`, `codex`, or `gpt-5.4`
   - If Q-Exec is omitted and no executor is otherwise resolved, default to `native`

   Q0. Review Target (if not in command): What to review?
     Examples: spec folder path, `skill:sk-name`, `agent:name`, `track:NN--name`, or file paths/globs

   Q1_type. Review Target Type (auto-detect from Q0, confirm):
     A) spec-folder -- Review spec artifacts + implementation files
     B) skill -- SKILL.md + references/ + assets/ + agents + commands
     C) agent -- Agent family across all runtimes
     D) track -- All child spec folders in a feature track
     E) files -- Arbitrary file paths or globs

   Q_dims. Which review dimensions? (default: all 4)
     All: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
     Or specify a subset (e.g., "correctness, security")

   Q1. Spec Folder (required):
     A) Use existing [suggest if found]
     B) Create new under `specs/[track]/[###]-[slug]/` (accept `.opencode/specs/` alias roots when already in use)
     C) Update related [if match found]
     D) Phase folder (e.g., `specs/NN-track/NNN-name/001-phase/` or matching `.opencode/specs/` alias)

   Q2. Execution Mode (if no suffix):
     A) Autonomous -- all iterations without approval
     B) Interactive -- pause at each iteration for review

   Q3. Max Iterations (if not set via flag):
     Default is 7 for review. Change? [Enter number or press enter for default]

   Q-Exec. Executor (optional, press enter for default):
     A) Native (default) — dispatch via @deep-review agent with Opus.
     B) cli-codex — `codex exec` with --model X -c model_reasoning_effort -c service_tier.
     C) cli-gemini — `gemini "PROMPT" -m gemini-3.1-pro-preview -y -o text`. Single supported model currently. No reasoning-effort or service-tier.
     D) cli-claude-code — `claude -p "PROMPT" --model X --permission-mode acceptEdits` with optional --effort. No service-tier.

   Reply format examples:
   - `"skill:deep-research, B, all, A, A"`
   - `"review the deep-review packet output, E, correctness security, B, B, 5"`
   - `"Review review/review-report.md contract drift, E, all, A, 7, 0.10, B, gpt-5.4, high, fast"`
   - `"review executor drift across CLIs, E, all, A, 7, 0.10, C, gpt-5.4, _, _"`

7. WAIT for user response (DO NOT PROCEED)

8. Parse response and store ALL results:
   - review_target = [from Q0 or $ARGUMENTS]
   - review_target_type = [from Q1_type, auto-detected]
   - review_dimensions = [from Q_dims or default "all"]
   - spec_choice = [A/B/C/D from Q1]

+

+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.

+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.

+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

codex
The first read-back surfaced one spec nuance: an ambiguous bare target should produce the target-type question first, not bundle spec-folder into the same prompt. I tightened that ordering so Trace B lands exactly on the one-question behavior.

+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.

+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`

+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.

+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

The evidence file is now in place with the four required mental traces. I’m moving the packet docs from template/scaffold state to completion state next, including the explicit limitation that verification was dry-run only by instruction.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |

+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |

+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

 ## 0. UNIFIED SETUP PHASE
 
-**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: This prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

 ## How It Was Delivered

-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |

+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |

+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.

+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions
-
-<!-- Voice guide: "Why" column should read like you're explaining to a colleague.
-     "Chose X because Y" not "X was selected due to Y." -->
 
 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions
-
-<!-- Voice guide: "Why" column should read like you're explaining to a colleague.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |

+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |

+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered

-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` now has an explicit setup contract that can resolve non-interactive runs without emitting the full consolidated question block. The command documentation separates autonomous setup from confirm setup, documents the pre-bound marker schema, and names the exact fail-fast behavior for missing inputs.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions
-
-<!-- Voice guide: "Why" column should read like you're explaining to a colleague.
-     "Chose X because Y" not "X was selected due to Y." -->
 
 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.

+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.

+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.

-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |

+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered

-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions
-
-<!-- Voice guide: "Why" column should read like you're explaining to a colleague.
-     "Chose X because Y" not "X was selected due to Y." -->
 
 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.

+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.

 ## How It Was Delivered

-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.

 ## How It Was Delivered

-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.

+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions
-
-<!-- Voice guide: "Why" column should read like you're explaining to a colleague.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files

+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10

+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions
-
-<!-- Voice guide: "Why" column should read like you're explaining to a colleague.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.

+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

-1. **[Limitation]** [Specific detail with workaround if one exists.]
+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

Implemented 028 inline, within the requested scope. No sub-agents, no full deep-review YAML loop.

**Files Modified**
- `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`
- `.opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass/implementation-summary.md`

- `.opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass/evidence/dry-run-verification.txt`

**T010-T014**
- T010: landed. `:auto` now has a three-tier setup branch.
- T011: landed. `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` schema documented.
- T012: landed. Tier 3 fail-fast error format documented.
- T013: landed. Per-field default-resolution table added; YAML change was not needed.
- T014: landed. Argument hint and execution protocol updated.

**V1-V4**
- V1: verified. Read-back confirmed the branch, schema, defaults table, Tier 3 error, and unchanged `:confirm` path.
- V2: verified. Four traces written to `evidence/dry-run-verification.txt`.
- V3: verified. `implementation-summary.md` populated and set to 100%.
- V4: verified. `tasks.md` updated for T010-T014 and V1-V3.

**Tests / Checks Run**
- `rg -n "Three-Tier Setup Resolution|PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema|Default Resolution Table|required inputs unresolved|Consolidated Setup Prompt" .opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`
- `bash .opencode/skills/system-spec-kit/scripts/spec/validate.sh .opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass --strict`
  - First run failed on verbose `next_safe_action` metadata.
  - Fixed metadata.
  - Final run passed: Errors 0, Warnings 0.

**Decisions**
- Kept the fix in `deep-review.md`; did not edit the YAML because the existing YAML already consumes the resolved setup placeholders/config shape.
- Made ambiguous bare targets ask only for `review_target_type` first, so Trace B emits one targeted question.
- Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2, because absence is not ambiguity.

**Concerns**
- Verification is dry-run only, per your instruction. The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed.
- This is a markdown command-contract implementation, not an executable parser test.

+**FIRST MESSAGE PROTOCOL**: For `:confirm` or no suffix, the consolidated setup prompt MUST be your FIRST response. No implementation or file-modifying tool calls before asking. Lightweight read-only discovery to suggest a spec folder or load prior context is allowed, then ask ALL questions immediately and wait.
+
+For `:auto`, do not emit the consolidated prompt by default. Resolve setup with the three-tier branch below, then load the auto YAML only after all required values are bound.
+
+### Three-Tier Setup Resolution for `:auto`
+
+Run this branch only when the attached suffix sets `execution_mode = "AUTONOMOUS"`.
+
+#### Tier 1 - Resolve Confidently
+
+1. Parse `$ARGUMENTS` for:
+   - Positional review target after removing mode suffixes and flags.
+   - `--max-iterations=N`
+   - `--convergence=N`
+   - `--dims=<all|comma-separated dimensions>`
+   - `--executor=<native|cli-codex|cli-gemini|cli-claude-code>`
+   - `--model=<id>`
+   - `--reasoning-effort=<none|minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh>`
+   - `--service-tier=<priority|standard|fast>`
+   - `--executor-timeout=<seconds>`
+   - `--no-resource-map`
+   - `--spec-folder=PATH`
+2. Scan the prompt body for a `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block using the schema below. Merge known marker fields over `$ARGUMENTS` values because the caller's explicit prompt-body binding wins.
+3. Apply defaults for every field with a documented default:
+   - `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true` unless `--no-resource-map` or marker `resource_map_emit: false`
+   - `review_target_type` auto-detects from `review_target`:
+     - `spec-folder` when the target is a spec path ending in `NNN-name/`, including nested `.opencode/specs/` phase paths
+     - `skill` when the target starts with `skill:`
+     - `agent` when the target starts with `agent:`
+     - `track` when the target starts with `track:` or names a `NN--name` track root
+     - `files` when the target is an existing file path, glob, or whitespace-separated file/glob list
+   - `spec_folder` resolves from `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or a target already recognized as `spec-folder`.
+4. Validate the resolved map:
+   - Required values: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `execution_mode`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`.
+   - Executor config uses `config.executor.*` fields and must pass the validation hook described below.
+   - Unknown marker fields are warnings, not errors.
+   - A malformed marker block emits a parse error naming the line, then falls through to Tier 2 or Tier 3 with the malformed fields unresolved.
+5. If every required value is resolved:
+   - Persist the resolved setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json` using the same shape the YAML consumes:
+     - `reviewTarget`
+     - `reviewTargetType`
+     - `reviewDimensions`
+     - `specFolder`
+     - `maxIterations`
+     - `convergenceThreshold`
+     - `executionMode: "auto"`
+     - `resource_map.emit`
+     - `config.executor.type`
+     - optional `config.executor.model`
+     - optional `config.executor.reasoningEffort`
+     - optional `config.executor.serviceTier`
+     - `config.executor.timeoutSeconds`
+   - Bind the equivalent runtime placeholders for the YAML: `review_target`, `review_target_type`, `review_dimensions`, `spec_folder`, `max_iterations`, `convergence_threshold`, `resource_map_emit`, and executor config.
+   - SET `STATUS: PASSED`.
+   - Load `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`.
+   - End §0. Do not emit the consolidated Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+#### Tier 2 - Targeted Ask
+
+Use Tier 2 only when Tier 1 leaves one or two required inputs unresolved, each unresolved field is genuinely ambiguous, and no sensible default exists.
+
+- Tier-2-eligible fields:
+  - `review_target_type` when `review_target` is present but cannot be confidently classified.
+  - `spec_folder` when the review target is not a spec folder and no `--spec-folder` or marker value was supplied.
+- Ordering rule:
+  - If `review_target_type` is ambiguous, ask only for `review_target_type` first. Do not also ask for `spec_folder` in the same prompt, because the target type answer may make the spec-folder rule obvious on the next Tier 1 pass.
+- Not Tier-2-eligible:
+  - Missing `review_target`. Absence is not ambiguity; go to Tier 3.
+  - Fields with defaults (`review_dimensions`, `maxIterations`, `convergenceThreshold`, executor, timeout, resource-map emission).
+
+Emit one narrow question per ambiguous field, never the full Q0..Q-Exec block.
+
+Examples:
+
+```
+`review_target_type` is ambiguous for `some-ambiguous-target`.
+Choose one: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files.
+```
+
+```
+`spec_folder` is unresolved for this review target.
+Provide --spec-folder=PATH or a PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: spec_folder value.
+```
+
+Wait briefly for a reply. If an answer arrives, merge it into the resolved map and rerun Tier 1 from the default/persistence step. If stdin is closed or no answer arrives, fall through to Tier 3. Never wait indefinitely.
+
+#### Tier 3 - Fail Fast
+
+Use Tier 3 when `:auto` still has unresolved required inputs after Tier 1 and Tier 2, or when Tier 2 produced no answer because stdin is closed.
+
+Emit this exact error shape, name every missing input, and exit non-zero:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+  - <field>: <why-unresolved>
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Do not emit setup questions in Tier 3. Do not load YAML.
+
+### PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema (for `:auto` non-interactive dispatch)
+
+The dispatched prompt body may contain one structured marker block. Parse it before applying defaults.
+
+```yaml
+PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:
+  review_target: specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure
+  review_target_type: spec-folder  # one of: spec-folder | skill | agent | track | files
+  review_dimensions: all  # or comma-separated subset: correctness, security, traceability, maintainability
+  spec_folder: existing  # one of: existing | new | update-related | phase-folder, or an explicit specs/.opencode/specs path
+  execution_mode: AUTONOMOUS  # from :auto suffix
+  maxIterations: 10
+  convergenceThreshold: 0.10
+  executor: native  # one of: native | cli-codex | cli-gemini | cli-claude-code
+  executor_model: ""  # optional, executor-specific
+  executor_reasoning: ""  # optional
+  executor_service_tier: ""  # optional
+  executor_timeout: 900  # optional
+  resource_map_emit: true  # optional
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- Any unspecified field falls back to its documented default.
+- Marker fields take precedence over `$ARGUMENTS` flags because the caller explicitly bound setup in the prompt body.
+- Unknown fields are warnings, not errors.
+- Malformed lines, including missing `:`, emit a parse error naming the offending line. Known fields parsed before the error may still be used, and unresolved fields continue to Tier 2 or Tier 3.
+- Empty strings count as unresolved for required fields.
+- Compact legacy answer strings are only for the consolidated `:confirm` prompt. They are not a `:auto` marker format.
+
+### Default Resolution Table
+
+| Field | Required | Resolves Via | Default | Tier-2 Candidate |
+|-------|----------|--------------|---------|------------------|
+| `review_target` | Y | `$ARGUMENTS` first positional target, or marker `review_target` | none | N |
+| `review_target_type` | Y | marker `review_target_type`, or auto-detect from `review_target` | inferred only | Y, when target is present but ambiguous |
+| `review_dimensions` | Y | flag `--dims` if supported by caller, marker `review_dimensions`, or default | `"all"` | N |
+| `spec_folder` | Y | flag `--spec-folder`, marker `spec_folder`, or target path when target is a spec folder | none | Y, when target is not a spec folder |
+| `execution_mode` | Y | attached suffix `:auto` or marker `execution_mode` | `AUTONOMOUS` under `:auto` | N |
+| `maxIterations` | Y | flag `--max-iterations`, marker `maxIterations`, or default | `7` | N |
+| `convergenceThreshold` | Y | flag `--convergence`, marker `convergenceThreshold`, or default | `0.10` | N |
+| `executor` | N | flag `--executor`, marker `executor`, config file, or default | `native` | N |
+| `executor_model` | N | flag `--model`, marker `executor_model`, or executor-specific validation | none | N |
+| `executor_reasoning` | N | flag `--reasoning-effort`, marker `executor_reasoning`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_service_tier` | N | flag `--service-tier`, marker `executor_service_tier`, or executor default | none | N |
+| `executor_timeout` | N | flag `--executor-timeout`, marker `executor_timeout`, or default | `900` | N |
+| `resource_map_emit` | N | flag `--no-resource-map`, marker `resource_map_emit`, or default | `true` | N |
+
+### Consolidated Setup Prompt for `:confirm` and No-Suffix Mode
+
+Use this block only when `execution_mode = "INTERACTIVE"` or when no suffix was supplied and Q2 must ask for the execution mode.

+Dry-Run Verification: 028 deep-review non-interactive setup bypass
+Date: 2026-05-11
+Scope: Read-back and mental setup-phase dispatch traces only. The full deep-review YAML loop was not run.
+
+## Trace A - Tier 1 pass
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure" --max-iterations=5`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch instead of the consolidated prompt.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `specs/skilled-agent-orchestration/102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`.
+3. `$ARGUMENTS` flag `--max-iterations=5` resolves `maxIterations = 5`.
+4. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block is present, so no marker values override the parsed arguments.
+5. Defaults fill the remaining values:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+6. The target path is a spec path ending in `102-sk-doc-skill-readme-and-structure`, so `review_target_type = spec-folder`.
+7. Because the target itself is a spec folder, `spec_folder` resolves to the same path.
+8. All required values are bound, so Tier 1 persists setup values to `{spec_folder}/review/deep-review-config.json`, sets `STATUS: PASSED`, loads `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/assets/spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`, and emits no Q0..Q-Exec setup question.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace B - Tier 2 targeted ask
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto "some-ambiguous-target"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` positional target resolves to `some-ambiguous-target`.
+3. No flags and no `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block are present.
+4. Defaults resolve:
+   - `review_dimensions = "all"`
+   - `maxIterations = 7`
+   - `convergenceThreshold = 0.10`
+   - `executor = native`
+   - `executor_timeout = 900`
+   - `resource_map_emit = true`
+5. Target-type auto-detection cannot classify the bare string confidently as `spec-folder`, `skill`, `agent`, `track`, or `files`.
+6. Tier 1 cannot pass because `review_target_type` is unresolved.
+7. Tier 2 sees one genuinely ambiguous required field. The ordering rule asks only for `review_target_type` first, because that answer may change how `spec_folder` resolves on the next Tier 1 pass.
+8. The emitted prompt is a single targeted question naming `review_target_type`. The full Q0..Q-Exec consolidated block is not emitted.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace C - Tier 3 fail fast
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:auto ""`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = AUTONOMOUS`, so §0 uses the three-tier `:auto` branch.
+2. `$ARGUMENTS` contains no non-empty positional target.
+3. No `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block supplies `review_target`.
+4. Defaults resolve every optional/defaultable field, but `review_target` remains missing.
+5. Missing `review_target` is not ambiguous. Tier 2 explicitly excludes it.
+6. Tier 3 emits the named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero without loading YAML:
+
+```
+[ERROR] /spec_kit:deep-review:auto — required inputs unresolved under autonomous mode:
+  - review_target: no target supplied in $ARGUMENTS or PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS
+Resolution: provide via $ARGUMENTS flags, PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS: block, or switch to :confirm mode for interactive setup.
+```
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Trace D - :confirm regression
+
+Dispatch input:
+
+`/spec_kit:deep-review:confirm "specs/.../X"`
+
+Step-by-step trace:
+
+1. Attached suffix sets `execution_mode = INTERACTIVE`, so §0 does not enter the `:auto` three-tier branch.
+2. §0 routes to `### Consolidated Setup Prompt for :confirm and No-Suffix Mode`.
+3. The existing `STATUS: BLOCKED` consolidated prompt remains present.
+4. The prompt still checks mode suffix, parses target and flags, searches related spec folders, loads prior context, asks applicable Q0/Q1_type/Q_dims/Q1/Q3/Q-Exec setup questions, waits for user response, parses the response, then sets `STATUS: PASSED`.
+5. Because the target is present, Q0 can still be omitted under the existing logic, but the setup path remains the full consolidated question block rather than the `:auto` bypass.
+
+Verdict:
+
+EXPECTED OUTCOME REACHED: yes
+
+## Read-Back Check
+
+- Three-tier branch is present and clearly labeled: yes.
+- PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS schema is documented: yes.
+- Per-field default-resolution table is present: yes.
+- Tier 3 error format is documented: yes.
+- `:confirm` mode behavior is unchanged: yes, the original consolidated prompt remains under the confirm/no-suffix branch.

+- Added a three-tier `:auto` setup branch in `.opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`:
+  - Tier 1 resolves from `$ARGUMENTS`, `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:`, and defaults, then loads the auto YAML without a question.
+  - Tier 2 asks one narrow clarification for genuinely ambiguous fields.
+  - Tier 3 emits the required named-missing-inputs error and exits non-zero.
+- Documented the `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` block schema, precedence rules, malformed-block handling, unknown-field behavior, and empty-string handling.
+- Added a per-field default-resolution table covering required status, resolution sources, defaults, and Tier-2 eligibility.
+- Updated the argument hint and execution protocol text so callers can discover the non-interactive bypass path.
+- Preserved the existing `:confirm` consolidated question block under its own heading.
+- Added dry-run verification evidence for Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and `:confirm` regression behavior.

 ## How It Was Delivered
 
-<!-- Voice guide:
-     Tell the delivery story. What gave you confidence this works?
-     "All features shipped behind feature flags" not "Feature flags were used."
-     For Level 1: a single sentence is enough.
-     For Level 3+: describe stages (testing, rollout, verification). -->
+The work was delivered as an inline Codex execution against the existing 028 packet. I read the spec, plan, tasks, command markdown, and auto YAML in the requested order, then kept the implementation in the command markdown because the YAML already consumes the setup values after the entrypoint binds them.
 
-[How was this tested, verified and shipped? What was the rollout approach?]
+Verification was intentionally dry-run only. The runtime instruction explicitly prohibited running the full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop, so the evidence file traces the setup phase through each required branch instead of dispatching the review loop.

 ## Key Decisions
-
-<!-- Voice guide: "Why" column should read like you're explaining to a colleague.

 | Decision | Why |
 |----------|-----|
-| [What was decided] | [Active-voice rationale with specific reasoning] |
+| Kept the change in `deep-review.md` and did not edit `spec_kit_deep-review_auto.yaml`. | The YAML already declares the required setup placeholders and creates the canonical review config after setup. The bug is the markdown entrypoint always asking before YAML load. |
+| Made `review_target_type` the first targeted-ask field when a bare target is ambiguous. | A target-type answer can determine whether `spec_folder` is derivable, so asking both at once would violate the narrow-question intent in Trace B. |
+| Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2. | Absence is not ambiguity. The spec explicitly expects empty target dispatches to fail fast. |
+| Documented marker fields as overriding flags. | The task states caller pre-binding in the prompt body wins over `$ARGUMENTS` flags. |
+| Documented unknown marker fields as warnings and malformed marker lines as parse errors that fall through to Tier 2 or Tier 3. | This preserves deterministic parsing without making benign forward-compatible fields fatal. |

+1. **Dry-run verification only.** The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed because the runtime instruction explicitly prohibited it.
+2. **Markdown contract, not a parser test.** This packet updates the command entrypoint contract and verifies the setup-resolution logic by trace. It does not add an executable parser fixture.
+3. **No YAML asset change.** The YAML consumer was read and found compatible with the resolved setup shape, so it was left untouched.

Implemented 028 inline, within the requested scope. No sub-agents, no full deep-review YAML loop.

**Files Modified**

**T010-T014**
- T010: landed. `:auto` now has a three-tier setup branch.
- T011: landed. `PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS:` schema documented.
- T012: landed. Tier 3 fail-fast error format documented.
- T013: landed. Per-field default-resolution table added; YAML change was not needed.
- T014: landed. Argument hint and execution protocol updated.

**V1-V4**
- V1: verified. Read-back confirmed the branch, schema, defaults table, Tier 3 error, and unchanged `:confirm` path.
- V2: verified. Four traces written to `evidence/dry-run-verification.txt`.
- V3: verified. `implementation-summary.md` populated and set to 100%.
- V4: verified. `tasks.md` updated for T010-T014 and V1-V3.

**Tests / Checks Run**
- `rg -n "Three-Tier Setup Resolution|PRE-BOUND SETUP ANSWERS Schema|Default Resolution Table|required inputs unresolved|Consolidated Setup Prompt" .opencode/commands/spec_kit/deep-review.md`
- `bash .opencode/skills/system-spec-kit/scripts/spec/validate.sh .opencode/specs/system-spec-kit/028-deep-review-noninteractive-setup-bypass --strict`
  - First run failed on verbose `next_safe_action` metadata.
  - Fixed metadata.
  - Final run passed: Errors 0, Warnings 0.

**Decisions**
- Kept the fix in `deep-review.md`; did not edit the YAML because the existing YAML already consumes the resolved setup placeholders/config shape.
- Made ambiguous bare targets ask only for `review_target_type` first, so Trace B emits one targeted question.
- Treated missing `review_target` as Tier 3, not Tier 2, because absence is not ambiguity.

**Concerns**
- Verification is dry-run only, per your instruction. The full `/spec_kit:deep-review:auto` YAML loop was not executed.
- This is a markdown command-contract implementation, not an executable parser test.
