+   **Нужно решение:** <one exact question or required action>
+
+   **Контекст и риск:** <why continuing without this is unsafe>
+
+   **Варианты:** <only the materially different options, with consequences>
+
+   **Что нужно в ответе:** <the exact decision, information, or approval>
+
+   **Идентификатор gate:** `HG-<issue identifier>-<monotonic sequence>`
+
+   **Кто может ответить:** <GitHub login(s) authorized to decide, or a repository role that can be verified with `gh`>
+
+   <sub><em>Чтобы продолжить: оставьте новый комментарий с идентификатором gate, затем удалите label <code>human-gate</code> и добавьте <code>codex-ready</code>. Symphony проверит ответ и автоматически возобновит работу.</em></sub>
+   ```
+
+   Keep the `<sub>` reminder exactly as shown: it is intentionally secondary to
+   the gate itself, but must always tell the human how to resume the issue.
+2. Replace the `codex-ready` label with `human-gate`, preserving any unrelated
+   labels. Do not start a pull request review handoff while this gate is open.
+3. Stop the current run. Do not close the issue or remove `human-gate`.
+
+When a human posts a new comment citing the gate identifier and replaces
+`human-gate` with `codex-ready`, Symphony will schedule a new run. Re-read the
+issue comments and resume only after the answer passes the validation described
+above.
