Create
Case and work-item creation, with story authoring remaining inside the Work-stage story path.
Create is for starting new work. Story authoring and review happen in the Work stage after a target exists. This keeps the initial prompt surface small and prevents creation UI from pretending to be release authority.
Prompt
Describe the task or case shape.
Match
Open a fitting workspace or draft a new one.
Handoff
Move into Work for evidence, review, story, and release steps.
No release authority
Create can propose setup and handoff. It cannot approve review gates, mint signer state, or publish a story.
Authoring lives in Work
The story editor still has a documented authoring contract, but that contract belongs to the Work-stage story path, not a standalone canvas world.
