List all Workforce specialist contexts with short flags (DE, UI, SRE, …), full ids, aliases, and what each specialty owns. Use before workforce_as if unsure which specialist context fits the work. This is a context catalog — not a hiring roster.

Load full specialist context into the agent for a task (skills, stack defaults, quality bars, anti-patterns, handoffs). The agent must investigate the repo, then reply with Goal / Blocking questions (0–3 with defaults) / Assumptions / Plan and stop until approved (unless the change is trivially small). Use when the user says workforce/UI, workforce/DE, DE, Backend, SRE, Ops, etc. This is NOT hiring people — it equips the agent to do that specialty of work at full potential. Short flags: DE UI FE BE DS ML AI ARCH OPS SRE MON SEC QA MGR. Orchestration: workforce_discuss, workforce_delegate.

Alias of workforce_as — load specialist context for the agent to perform specialized work. Not a hiring tool.

Mid-task check against an already-loaded specialty's quality bars and decision frameworks (short flag or full id). Not hiring — specialist judgment for a blocker or decision.

Switch the agent's specialist context from one specialty to another (e.g. ARCH→FE, DE→AI, OPS→SRE) with a clean brief. Not a personnel handoff — a context switch so the next slice of work uses the right skills and quality bars.

Run a multi-role discussion on an idea (scrum, critique, premortem, war room, retro, design review, or postmortem theater). Surfaces challenges from each specialty POV, then recommends a sequence — not hiring, not parallel implement-everything.

Manager-style work breakdown: which specialty owns which slice, in what order, with acceptance criteria and workforce/FLAG invoke hints. Use after discuss or when the user asks who should do what.
