To run functional-design without advancing the main workflow, execute the stage in isolation using a conductor-driven run that emits a single directive and commits only a synthetic stage record, preserving the main workflow's Current Stage.

An isolated functional-design stage is a single-stage construction-phase execution that allows you to test, validate, or complete functional design independently while logging STAGE_STARTED and STAGE_COMPLETED events without moving the parent lifecycle forward.

You execute a single-stage functional-design run by invoking orchestration through next and report commands, which support grilling interactions and ensure the conductor-driven run commits a synthetic stage record without altering the main workflow state.

No, isolated functional-design execution does not modify the main workflow Current Stage. It commits only a synthetic stage record for the isolated run, ensuring the parent AI-DLC process remains untouched and unchanged.

You need to run a single-stage construction-phase workflow independently when a team requires functional-design work on a feature branch while preserving the parent AI-DLC process, allowing safe testing and validation without advancing the main lifecycle.
