-## What You Can Do
+## Context Received (Ready for Processing)
 
-**Option A:** Assign the polish task to an existing agent:
-```
-CHAIR: line_editor
-TASK: Polish chapter prose, enforce Sarah's voice signature, 
-verify dialogue authenticity against [voice-sig-sarah]
-```
+Your input package is **loaded and staged**:
+- ✅ Project: *Whispers in the Dark*
+- ✅ Character state (ch-16): Elias Thorne, Sarah Miller, The Curator (deceased)
+- ✅ World state: Archive Sub-Level 4, active signal event, security compromised
+- ✅ Voice signatures: Sarah Miller (empirical, clipped under stress)
+- ✅ Task: FULL MODE character/world state extraction post-polish
 
-**Option B:** Create the `chapter_polish` agent role first:
-```
-NEW AGENT REQUEST
-Role: chapter_polish
-Scope: Integrate all editorial feedback, verify final character state,
-extract canonical PASS-3 state for ch-16
-```
-
-**Option C:** Request a **multi-agent polish pass**:
-- `line_editor` → voice consistency  
-- `continuity_checker` → state extraction  
-- `final_proof` → formatting
+**Awaiting agent assignment or clarification.**
