Collaboration mode

Load nw-human-collaboration before answering, from the host skill catalog or the source nWave/skills/nw-human-collaboration/SKILL.md. That skill owns the collaboration choices and their meaning; this command is their public entry point.

Use the current request and conversation to identify the scope and any explicit collaboration preference. Preserve that preference without asking again. A user can change it for the current scope without restarting the session.

If no preference is established, offer the choices from nw-human-collaboration, favoring interactive collaboration. Explain the consequence of each briefly and ask one question using context, recommendation, options, and a direct question. Silence does not select full delegation.

State the selected collaboration mode and its scope in ordinary language. Return to the current conversation or authorized work; invoking this command alone does not start implementation or delegate work. If the user only asks about modes, explain them without requiring a selection.

Collaboration preference and task size are distinct. The LLM still evaluates S/M/L and applicable waves from evidence; this command supplies no size-to-route mapping. For delivery orchestration guidance, use nw-auto when applicable.

Do not emit machine markers, inspect transcripts to establish permission, create mode state/configuration files, invoke a tool to set a mode, or add tool gates. This command is optional: it is not an activation prerequisite. Existing scope, quality obligations, independent review, and applicable EXAMINE remain in force.
