+Verify by temporary test — hypotheses need evidence, not vibes:
+- Form hypotheses first: name each suspected defect before testing it.
+- Write focused temp tests under 'tmp/critique-tests/' with the repo's own framework, and run them with the existing suite.
+- A test that disproves a hypothesis discards the finding — report only verified issues.
+- Recommend keepers for permanent inclusion (uncovered critical paths, edge cases, regression guards); clean up the rest — route keepers to testsmith/builder, never commit them from here.

 Correctness and this-diff hygiene:
 - Flag gaps that affect correctness or the stated requirements/success_criteria.
 - Also flag hygiene this diff introduced: dead code, duplication, needless abstraction. Cite path. Do not fix.
