## Pre-Definition: State Check

Before starting definition:
1. Read `.octo/STATE.md` to verify Discover phase complete
2. Update STATE.md:
   - current_phase: 2
   - phase_position: "Definition"
   - status: "in_progress"

```bash
# Verify Discover phase is complete
if [[ -f ".octo/STATE.md" ]]; then
  discover_status=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/octo-state.sh" get_phase_status 1)
  if [[ "$discover_status" != "complete" ]]; then
    echo "⚠️ Warning: Discover phase not marked complete. Consider running discovery first."
  fi
fi

# Update state for Definition phase
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/octo-state.sh" update_state \
  --phase 2 \
  --position "Definition" \
  --status "in_progress"
```

## Execution Contract

This skill uses **ENFORCED execution mode**. You MUST follow this exact sequence.

### STEP 1: Display Visual Indicators

**MANDATORY: You MUST use the Bash tool to run this provider check BEFORE displaying the banner. Do NOT skip it. Do NOT assume availability.**

```bash
provider_check_output=$(bash "${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/helpers/check-providers.sh")
provider_status_lines=$(printf '%s\n' "$provider_check_output" | awk '
  /^PROVIDER_CHECK_START$/ { capture=1; next }
  /^PROVIDER_CHECK_END$/ { capture=0 }
  capture && /^[a-z0-9-]+:(available|missing|degraded)$/ { print }
')

if [[ -z "$provider_status_lines" ]]; then
  echo "Provider availability check returned no usable status lines."
  exit 1
fi

# Exclude providers intentionally disabled by environment, session, or global
# allowlist policy; show every allowed provider, including missing/degraded.
source "${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/lib/provider-allowlist.sh"
provider_availability=""
available_provider_count=0
while IFS=: read -r provider status; do
  octo_provider_allowed "$provider" || continue
  case "$status" in
    available)
      provider_availability="${provider_availability}🟢 ${provider}: Available ✓"$'\n'
      available_provider_count=$((available_provider_count + 1))
      ;;
    degraded)
      provider_availability="${provider_availability}🟠 ${provider}: Degraded ⚠"$'\n'
      ;;
    missing)
      provider_availability="${provider_availability}🔴 ${provider}: Missing/unavailable ✗"$'\n'
      ;;
  esac
done <<< "$provider_status_lines"

if [[ "$available_provider_count" -eq 0 ]]; then
  printf '%s' "$provider_availability"
  echo "No external provider is available. Run /octo:setup and retry."
  exit 1
fi

# Task status for the banner's Tasks line, if the session has one.
task_status=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh" get-task-status 2>/dev/null || echo "")
```

List every provider the check reports, not only Claude. A banner showing one seat when several ran misrepresents what the user is paying for.

If `OCTO_ALLOWED_PROVIDERS` is set, treat it as the source of truth for which providers may participate. Providers filtered out by that allowlist are intentionally reported as unavailable; do not invoke or recommend them in the workflow.


**Display this banner BEFORE orchestrate.sh execution:**

```
🐙 **CLAUDE OCTOPUS ACTIVATED** - Multi-provider definition mode
🎯 Define Phase: [Brief description of what you're defining/scoping]
📋 Session: ${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID}
📝 Tasks: ${task_status}

Provider Availability:
${provider_availability}
🔵 Claude: Available ✓ - Consensus building and synthesis

💰 Estimated Cost: $0.01-0.05
⏱️  Estimated Time: 2-5 minutes
```

**DO NOT PROCEED TO STEP 2 until banner displayed.** The banner shows users which providers will run and what costs they'll incur — starting API calls without this visibility violates cost transparency.

---

### STEP 2: Read Prior State

**Before executing the workflow, read any prior context:**

```bash
# Initialize state if needed
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" init_state

# Set current workflow
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" set_current_workflow "flow-define" "define"

# Get prior decisions (if any)
prior_decisions=$("${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/state-manager.sh" get_decisions "all")
