Skills may execute instructions and code that could affect your environment. Marketplace scans reduce risk but do not guarantee safety. Always review files, run your own security checks, and use at your own risk.

I understand these skills can contain unsafe or unintended behavior, and I will review and security-scan before use. No warranty, suitability, or outcome is guaranteed.

# /cs:freeze — Cooldown Lock on a Decision

Locks a decision for a defined cooldown period. The chief-of-staff router refuses to re-litigate until the freeze expires or a kill criterion triggers.

Adapted from gstack's `/freeze` and `/guard` safety primitives.

## When to Use

- After any **irreversible** or **high-cost-to-reverse** decision (fundraise, layoff, market entry)
- After a **split-vote boardroom** (preserve the call against second-guessing)
- After a **founder gut-feel** override of advisor consensus
- During **personnel transition** (lock strategy, don't redebate)

## Default Freeze Periods

| Decision type | Freeze |
|---|---|
| Fundraise round / lead | 30 days |
| Pricing change | 60 days |
| Market entry / exit | 90 days |
| Layoff / RIF | 30 days |
| Strategic pivot | 90 days |
| Personnel (hire / fire) | 60 days |
| M&A LOI | 30 days |

## Workflow

1. Validate decision has APPROVED status
2. Write `freeze_until: YYYY-MM-DD` to the decision record
3. Add to active-freezes index
4. cs-chief-of-staff now blocks re-routing until expiry or kill criterion triggers

## Override

Run `/cs:unfreeze <decision> <reason>` to unfreeze early. All overrides logged for post-mortem audit.

## Routing

- `/cs:unfreeze` — explicit early release
- `/cs:post-mortem` — auto-triggered if kill criterion fires
- `/cs:boardroom` — blocked until unfreeze or expiry
