-Deep PR review is a **three-stage pipeline**: collect → domain review → synthesis. One PR gets multi-seat coverage (code + security, split by domain) but exactly **one verdict and one GitHub Review**, synthesized and published by the main agent. Every seat is a read-only audit seat; only the main agent posts.
+Deep PR review is a **three-stage pipeline**: collect → domain review → synthesis. One PR gets multi-seat coverage (code + security, split by domain) but exactly **one verdict and one GitHub Review**, synthesized and published by the main agent. Every seat is a read-only audit seat; only the main agent posts. At the `deep` tier the pipeline runs **two waves by default when the pinned diff pack exists** (the `worktree-setup` `diffFile` snapshot — § Worktree isolation): the Stage 1 collect wave **folds into the Stage 2 domain seats** (`collectFolded` seat prompts — each domain seat collects its own domain, then reviews it), leaving the domain-seat wave and main-agent synthesis. The collect wave runs as its own wave only in the kept-wave exceptions (Stage 1 below).
 
-- **Stage 1 — Collect**: PM fans out lightweight read-only agents by **domain** — business domain / change surface / tech stack; use the host's lightest read-only agent (`scout` / `explorer` / `general` — whatever the host offers). Each collect seat reads the changed files in its domain plus related context and returns **evidence in its result payload** (any seat may be **write-blocked** — read-only sandbox / EPERM; the main agent extracts the payload and writes the evidence file — § Local report archive / `references/pr-review-seat-evidence.md`): `file:line` observations, potential issue surfaces, and security-surface observations (the seat carries a security lens per `security-review.md` §2/§3 **research** discipline — trace origin, never invent an attacker, never record secret values — and still records MEDIUM / unverified items as **leads** in its evidence payload; the HIGH-only filter applies to formal findings, not leads). Collect seats produce **no** findings table, compute **no** verdict, and publish **nothing**.
-- **Stage 2 — Domain review**: mstar built-in roles (`code-reviewer` / `fullstack-dev` / `frontend-dev`) split along the same domain framing, each reviewing code + security in its domain (security via the `security-review.md` lens) and producing findings with **Merge class** (§ Merge class). Each domain seat returns its findings in the **result payload** — any seat may be **write-blocked**; the main agent writes the Stage 2 evidence file (§ Local report archive / `references/pr-review-seat-evidence.md`). A large PR (>~300 changed lines, or spanning multiple change surfaces/domains) or a security-sensitive surface (auth, LLM, supply chain, data — `security-review.md` §9 extended surfaces) adds an **independent cross-domain security seat**.
-- **Stage 3 — Synthesis (main agent)**: the main agent (the command's orchestrator) collects all domain findings + evidence files → **dedupe** → **three-way vet** (open each cited file yourself; `file:line` must genuinely support the claim) → **tally** (§ Tally and derived score — formula unchanged) → **verdict** → report + **publish GitHub Review** (§ Comment posting — publishing authority belongs to the main agent). The main agent does not backfill uncollected / unreviewed domains — a missing domain is declared in the report under `- unverified:` / `- notes:`. **The envelope is mandatory**: after the tally, the main agent **must** fold the accepted findings into a `mstar.review/v1` envelope (`synthesizeReview` — or the equivalent engine call) and persist it via `mstar-harness persist review --key <plan-or-pr-id> --stdin` (or `getArtifactStore().put`); the Markdown archive is an optional human copy, **not** a substitute for the envelope.

Collect seats produce **no** findings table, compute **no** verdict, and publish **nothing**. **Kept-wave only**: by default (pack exists) this wave folds into Stage 2 and **no collect seats are dispatched**; it runs as its own wave only when kept — **no snapshot** (`--diff` / `--working-tree` modes write no diff snapshot; `worktree-setup` prints `diffFile: null` there) or **PM judgment** (unfamiliar sprawling surface). Either way is declared in the report `- notes:` — `collect wave folded (pack)` / `collect wave kept (no pack / PM judgment: <reason>)`.
+- **Stage 2 — Domain review**: mstar built-in roles (`code-reviewer` / `fullstack-dev` / `frontend-dev`) split along the same domain framing, each reviewing code + security in its domain (security via the `security-review.md` lens) and producing findings with **Merge class** (§ Merge class). By default (pack exists) these seats are dispatched with the **`collectFolded`** option (CLI: `mstar pr-review seat-prompt --collect-folded`) — a fold bullet after the `## Budget` block tells each seat to do its own collection: pinned diff pack first, then changed files in its domain (§ Seat prompts) — so no separate collect wave precedes them. Each domain seat returns its findings in the **result payload** — any seat may be **write-blocked**; the main agent writes the Stage 2 evidence file (§ Local report archive / `references/pr-review-seat-evidence.md`). A large PR (>~300 changed lines, or spanning multiple change surfaces/domains) or a security-sensitive surface (auth, LLM, supply chain, data — `security-review.md` §9 extended surfaces) adds an **independent cross-domain security seat**. The fold removes only the collect wave — the **independent cross-domain security seat is never folded**.
+- **Stage 3 — Synthesis (main agent)**: the main agent (the command's orchestrator) collects all domain findings + evidence files → **dedupe** → **tiered three-way vet** (full for must-fix/should-fix; evidence-verify for nits — open the cited file; `file:line` must genuinely support the claim) → **tally** (§ Tally and derived score — formula unchanged) → **verdict** → report + **publish GitHub Review** (§ Comment posting — publishing authority belongs to the main agent). The main agent does not backfill uncollected / unreviewed domains — a missing domain is declared in the report under `- unverified:` / `- notes:`. **The envelope is mandatory**: after the tally, the main agent **must** fold the accepted findings into a `mstar.review/v1` envelope (`synthesizeReview` — or the equivalent engine call) and persist it via `mstar-harness persist review --key <plan-or-pr-id> --stdin` (or `getArtifactStore().put`); the Markdown archive is an optional human copy, **not** a substitute for the envelope.

When kept, Stage 1 collect seats scale with PR size; the extra security seat stays in Stage 2:
 
-| Size | Stage 1 collect seats | Extra Stage 2 |

+- The ~1000 band of § Sizing & change shape is unchanged (too large → advise split); the pipeline fan-out threshold **is** the ~300 band — there is no second set of numbers. The default (pack exists) dispatches **no collect seats** — the domain seats collect themselves (`collectFolded`).
 
 **Fan-out discipline**: every collect / domain seat is a **read-only audit seat** (shared contract → `mstar-roles` `references/_shared/leaf-executor-core.md` Audit Mode). PM creates the worktree and resolves the diff basis **first** (§ Worktree isolation), then fans out. Domain-seat Assignments may carry `Delegation: allowed (scout/explore only, read-only)` (reusing the full-audit pattern). **For three-stage seats, never-post is the permanent contract** — posting is Stage 3 only, by the main agent: the main agent (the command's orchestrator) posts the review; review seats never post. Audit Mode, Hard Rule 2, and Mode C are aligned; no seat-level POST carve-out exists.
 
-**Seat prompts** — every seat loads the **seat evidence contract** at `references/pr-review-seat-evidence.md` (return evidence / findings in the result payload — any seat may be **write-blocked**; the main agent writes the evidence files — § Local report archive).

Stage 2 domain / security seats additionally load the **findings contract**: `references/finding-format.md`, `references/security-review.md` (security seats), and the instruction to produce findings with **Merge class** (§ Merge class), return them in the result payload (writable seats may **best-effort** write the Stage 2 evidence file directly — the main agent merges — § Local report archive), and return only findings — no fixes; never post.

 ## Review depth (tiers)

Every tier keeps the same verdict contract: one verdict derived from the tally, one GitHub Review, posted by the main agent (§ Verdict synthesis / § Comment posting).
