 # CYA-WP-0001: Console-Native MVP — CLI Skeleton, Safe Assistance Flow, and Integration Boundaries
 
+## Status Update — 2026-05-26 (Activated)
+
+This workplan is moved from `ready` to `active` immediately following resolution of State Hub Decision `a644364b-11c4-49a9-bf17-99063382e27b`.
+
+**Stack technology choices (accepted per agent recommendations):**
+- Primary language/runtime: **Python**
+- CLI framework: **Typer**
+- Terminal presentation: **rich**
+- Configuration format: **TOML** (alignment with sibling patterns)
+- Packaging/layout: **Full modern Python package** (`pyproject.toml` + `src/` layout) from day 1
+
+**Additional operator direction recorded in the decision:**
+- **Phase-memory integration (T05):** Keep strictly minimal. Pure explicit ports / no-op implementations with clear "replace with real phase-memory integration" markers. No placeholder local JSON file or store in this slice.
+- **Safety / risk classification (T03):** Implement genuine rule-based assessment as the primary mechanism. Surface the classification results to the LLM as structured context where relevant. The LLM is allowed to propose actions or refine classifications, but any architecture-level, policy, or significant design decisions that arise must be captured as ADRs in this repository.
+
+The narrow MVP slice is now authorized to proceed. Implementation of T01 (scaffolding + Typer CLI entrypoint) can begin.

 ## Goal
 
 Deliver the first narrow, usable slice of `cya` (the can-you-assist console assistant) that proves the core loop:

   - `phase-memory` (foundational workplans complete; local runtime, ports, and contracts exist).
