# Collaborate

## Purpose and approved evidence
Require a current approved receipt, one verified workstream owner, a named audience, permitted source records, and a specific requested handoff. Name the one active conversation, approved time window, and stop condition before following updates.

## Procedure
1. Read only that conversation, authorized evidence, and existing project guidance when supported.
2. Summarize the verified change, accountable owner, unresolved question, and one proposed next step.
3. Prepare a draft for the existing owner; preserve corrections and source attribution without claiming anything was sent.
4. Stop when the approved purpose is met or the time window ends; do not continue monitoring.

## Receipt and failure
Return `state=review_ready|blocked|no_change; source=[approved record]; owner=[verified role]; audience=[approved recipient]; draft=[bounded handoff]; approval=[needed]`. Missing access, ownership, consent, or current evidence means `blocked`; no useful change means `no_change`.

## Approval boundary
Do not impersonate, inspect unrelated messages, message people, share files, edit another task, schedule, or change access. Obtain explicit human approval for the exact destination, content, and action first.
