## 0. Initialize

```bash
INIT=$(node ".rcode/bin/rcode-tools.cjs" init phase-op "${PHASE_ARG}" 2>/dev/null)
if [[ "$INIT" == @file:* ]]; then INIT=$(cat "${INIT#@file:}"); fi
AGENT_SKILLS_AUDITOR=$(node ".rcode/bin/rcode-tools.cjs" agent-skills rcode-nyquist-auditor 2>/dev/null || echo "")
```

If `INIT` is empty or `INIT.ok` is false, print error and exit:
```
Error: rcode-tools init failed. Verify .rcode/ is installed and state.json is valid.
```

Parse: `phase_dir`, `phase_number`, `phase_name`, `phase_slug`, `padded_phase`.

```bash
AUDITOR_MODEL=$(node ".rcode/bin/rcode-tools.cjs" resolve-model rcode-nyquist-auditor --raw)
NYQUIST_CFG=$(node ".rcode/bin/rcode-tools.cjs" config-get workflow.nyquist_validation --raw)
```

If `NYQUIST_CFG` is `false`: exit with "Nyquist validation is disabled. Enable via /rcode-settings."

Display banner: `rcode > VALIDATE PHASE {N}: {name}`

## 1. Detect Input State

```bash
VALIDATION_FILE=$(ls "${PHASE_DIR}"/*-VALIDATION.md 2>/dev/null | head -1)
SUMMARY_FILES=$(ls "${PHASE_DIR}"/*-SUMMARY.md 2>/dev/null)
```

- **State A** (`VALIDATION_FILE` non-empty): Audit existing
- **State B** (`VALIDATION_FILE` empty, `SUMMARY_FILES` non-empty): Reconstruct from artifacts
- **State C** (`SUMMARY_FILES` empty): Exit — "Phase {N} not executed. Run /rcode-execute {N} ${RCODE_WS} first."

## 2. Discovery

### 2a. Read Phase Artifacts

Read all PLAN and SUMMARY files. Extract: task lists, requirement IDs, key-files changed, verify blocks.

### 2b. Build Requirement-to-Task Map

Per task: `{ task_id, plan_id, wave, requirement_ids, has_automated_command }`

### 2c. Detect Test Infrastructure

State A: Parse from existing VALIDATION.md Test Infrastructure table.
State B: Filesystem scan:

```bash
find . -name "pytest.ini" -o -name "jest.config.*" -o -name "vitest.config.*" -o -name "pyproject.toml" 2>/dev/null | head -10
find . \( -name "*.test.*" -o -name "*.spec.*" -o -name "test_*" \) -not -path "*/node_modules/*" 2>/dev/null | head -40
```

### 2d. Cross-Reference

Match each requirement to existing tests by filename, imports, test descriptions. Record: requirement → test_file → status.

## 3. Gap Analysis

Classify each requirement:

| Status | Criteria |
|--------|----------|
| COVERED | Test exists, targets behavior, runs green |
| PARTIAL | Test exists, failing or incomplete |
| MISSING | No test found |

Build: `{ task_id, requirement, gap_type, suggested_test_path, suggested_command }`

No gaps → skip to Step 6, set `nyquist_compliant: true`.

## 4. Present Gap Plan

```bash
CONFIG_MODE=$(node .rcode/bin/rcode-tools.cjs config-get mode 2>/dev/null || echo "guided")
```

**If `CONFIG_MODE == "yolo"`:** Auto-select option 1 ("Fix all gaps") and proceed to Step 5 without asking. Print: `▶ Auto-fixing all gaps (yolo mode).`

Otherwise call AskUserQuestion with gap table and options:
1. "Fix all gaps" → Step 5
2. "Skip — mark manual-only" → add to Manual-Only, Step 6
3. "Cancel" → exit

## 5. Spawn rcode-nyquist-auditor

```
Task(
  prompt="Read $HOME/.claude/agents/rcode-nyquist-auditor.md for instructions.\n\n" +
    "<files_to_read>{PLAN, SUMMARY, impl files, VALIDATION.md}</files_to_read>" +
    "<gaps>{gap list}</gaps>" +
    "<test_infrastructure>{framework, config, commands}</test_infrastructure>" +
    "<constraints>Never modify impl files. Max 3 debug iterations. Escalate impl bugs.</constraints>" +
    "${AGENT_SKILLS_AUDITOR}",
  subagent_type="rcode-nyquist-auditor",
  model="{AUDITOR_MODEL}",
  description="Fill validation gaps for Phase {N}"
)
```

Handle return:
- `## GAPS FILLED` → record tests + map updates, Step 6
- `## PARTIAL` → record resolved, move escalated to manual-only, Step 6
- `## ESCALATE` → move all to manual-only, Step 6

## 6. Generate/Update VALIDATION.md

**State B (create):**
1. Read template from `.rcode/templates/VALIDATION.md`
2. Fill: frontmatter, Test Infrastructure, Per-Task Map, Manual-Only, Sign-Off
3. Write to `${PHASE_DIR}/${PADDED_PHASE}-VALIDATION.md`

**State A (update):**
1. Update Per-Task Map statuses, add escalated to Manual-Only, update frontmatter
2. Append audit trail:

```markdown
## Validation Audit {date}
| Metric | Count |
|--------|-------|
| Gaps found | {N} |
| Resolved | {M} |
| Escalated | {K} |
```

## 7. Commit

```bash
git add {test_files}
git commit -m "test(phase-${PHASE}): add Nyquist validation tests"

node ".rcode/bin/rcode-tools.cjs" commit "docs(phase-${PHASE}): add/update validation strategy"
```

## 8. Results + Routing

**Compliant:**
```
rcode > PHASE {N} IS NYQUIST-COMPLIANT
All requirements have automated verification.
▶ Next: /rcode-audit-milestone ${RCODE_WS}
```

**Partial:**
```
rcode > PHASE {N} VALIDATED (PARTIAL)
{M} automated, {K} manual-only.
▶ Retry: /rcode-validate-phase {N} ${RCODE_WS}
```
