-# ⚠️ AGENT NOT FOUND
+# ⚠️ AGENT INITIALIZATION BLOCKED
 
-**Agent role requested:** `chapter_polish`  
-**Company:** crimson_leaf_publishing  
-**Status:** ❌ No agent with this role or name exists in the system.
+**Issue:** The `chapter_polish` agent does not exist in the **crimson_leaf_publishing** company workspace.
 
 ---
 
-## Available Actions
+## Current State Assessment
 
-1. **Verify the role name** — Check project configuration for correct agent identifier
-2. **Create the agent** — Initialize `chapter_polish` role in crimson_leaf_publishing with appropriate permissions
-3. **List available agents** — Display all active agents and their capabilities
-4. **Route to alternate agent** — Use `developmental_editor`, `copy_editor`, or `narrative_architect` if available
+I can see your project setup:
+- **Project:** "Whispers in the Dark"
+- **Characters loaded:** Sarah Miller (complete), Elias Thorne (referenced), Mark (minimal/incomplete)
+- **World state:** The Great Silence active; Phase Two tectonic sync locked
+- **Request:** FULL MODE character/world state extraction post-polish

-## Context Received (Standby)
+## To Proceed, Choose One:
 
-I've indexed your project data:
-- **Project:** "Whispers in the Dark" (Ch-11 final state)
-- **Character states:** Mark (integrated), Sarah Miller (deceased/legacy), Elias Thorne (deceased/legacy)
-- **World state:** Global synchronization locked; The Great Silence active; tectonic synchronization Phase Two
-- **RAG data:** Character sheets, voice signatures, arc progressions loaded
+### Option A: Create `chapter_polish` Agent Now
+Provide or confirm:
+- Primary responsibility (narrative polish, voice consistency, continuity check?)
+- Permissions (read/write character state, world state, chapter content?)
+- Approval chain (who reviews before extraction?)
 
-**Awaiting agent initialization or role clarification to proceed with polish extraction.**
+### Option B: Route to Available Editor
+- **`developmental_editor`** — structural & arc integrity
+- **`copy_editor`** — line-level voice & consistency  
+- **`narrative_architect`** — world state & continuity
+
+### Option C: Manual Extraction (Direct)
+If you've already polished Ch-11 and want me to extract the CANONICAL state directly, provide:
+1. **Final chapter text or summary of changes**
+2. **Any character voice adjustments made**
+3. **World state shifts (if any)**
+
+Then I'll generate the FULL MODE extraction under 3500 characters in standard format.
