itd-142 pre-populates a brownfield repository from embark probe coverage, but embark probe reads a lifeboat, not a repository
A sequencing impossibility (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.

.abcd/development/intents/drafts/itd-142-the-brief-creation-interview-abcd.md:68— "Common entry for both modes: brownfield pre-population fromembark probe" - End B:
.abcd/development/brief/01-product/02-context.md:9— "theprobe <lifeboat-dir>sub-verb reports what an unpack would write, coverage blanks first, and writes nothing"
itd-142's common entry draws brownfield pre-population from embark probe coverage. The context chapter defines embark's probe as taking a lifeboat directory and reporting what an unpack would write. A brownfield repository with no lifeboat gives embark probe nothing to read, so the entry depends on a verb that cannot supply the coverage it needs.
Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 157.

- itd-142The brief-creation interview: abcd elicits a repository's brief in a staged conversation — narrative first, then frontier rounds that ask only what the record cannot yet settle, options at conjectural questions (at most three candidate construals, a ceiling not a target, with a null answer always available), and a per-item confirmation — distilling committed products into the brief and a ledger while the transcript is discarded. Entry is one door for both modes: a brownfield repository arrives pre-populated from embark probe coverage, provenance-stamped and still requiring confirmation; a greenfield repository is the same interview run from the all-blank coverage state. Command-shaped, because it mutates state — abcd ships zero skillsrelated
