Replaces the two-bullet `Crossing sessions` section with all five options at a phase boundary — continue, /clear, /handoff, subagent, /compact — and discloses the ordered tree into a new PHASE-BOUNDARIES.md. Corrections that come with it: - /handoff was oversold as the general bridge between context windows. It is narrow: a new harness, a new directory, a colleague, or a side task forked mid-phase. What it buys is portability. - /compact is the default at the bottom of the tree, not the first reach. - Continue and subagent were missing branches entirely. Context hygiene's escape hatch now says /compact rather than /handoff, and the smart zone figure moves from ~120k to ~150k tokens. Resolves the T5 grilling ticket on the v1.2 release map.

Give /ask-matt the phase boundary decision tree, replacing the two-bullet Crossing sessions section.
A phase is a chunk of work inside a session — the grilling, the implementation, the QA — and the boundary between two of them is where you decide what to do with the context you've built. The router now carries all five options in order (continue, /clear, /handoff, subagent, /compact), with the ordered tree and its reasoning disclosed in a new PHASE-BOUNDARIES.md. Three fixes come with it:
/handoffwas oversold. It read as the general bridge between context windows. It's narrow: you need it only when something has to travel — a new harness, a new directory, a colleague, or a side task forked mid-phase. What it buys is portability./compactis the default, not the first reach. It sits at the bottom of the tree, after the four cheaper or more precise questions above it. Starting there produces a session that's confidently wrong about whatever the summary flattened.- Two branches were missing entirely. Continue is the one to rule out first — it's the only move that keeps the conversation as a primary source rather than a summary of one — and a subagent handles anything scoped tightly enough to run AFK.
Context hygiene's escape hatch now says /compact rather than /handoff (same harness, same directory, at a boundary — the handoff clause doesn't apply), and the smart zone figure is updated from ~120k to ~150k tokens.
