+- Behavioral evaluation phase 2 (OPP-016): the scenario registry in `resources/evals/scenarios/` — five fixture scenarios covering the core behavioral contract (approval boundary, light-lane artifact skip, risk escalation, bugfix process entry, rejection → re-gate) — replayed against real harness CLIs with `aiw eval run --scenarios`. Deterministic state-outcome assertions only (no prose, no LLM-as-judge); missing harness CLIs mark scenarios `skipped-harness-unavailable` (never silent passes); one retry on transport failure reports `flaky-suspect`; per-scenario wall-clock and token ceilings plus pooled nightly budgets from `.aiw/budgets.yml` (`evals.tokenCeiling`); usage sidecar records tokens only when harnesses report them. Results serialize as `aiw.scenario-results/v1` to `.aiw/generated/evals/`. Advisory-first: report-only for two release cycles before the approval-boundary family gates (ratchet declared up front). The registry doubles as the canonical behavioral contract examples (`resources/evals/README.md`).
+- New `behavioral-evals` CI workflow: nightly + PR (registry/runner paths), advisory mode.

 ## Self-validation
 
 AI Workflow must use itself to validate changes whenever the current capabilities support the task. Changes affecting installation, scanning, generation, migration, adapters, or project configuration must be executed against this repository and their generated output must be inspected. Unit tests alone are not sufficient for these changes.

+# Behavioral evaluation scenarios (OPP-016)
+
+Each file in this directory is a **behavioral scenario**: a fixture repository, a
+bounded harness command, and deterministic state-outcome expectations. They
+double as canonical examples of the workflow's behavioral contract — reading
+them tells you exactly what a compliant agent does at the approval boundary,
+in the light lane, under escalation, in the bugfix process, and after a
+rejection.
+
+They are the behavioral layer on top of the deterministic layers (OPP-011 text
+invariants, OPP-006 command ratchet): OPP-011 proves the artifacts _say_ the
+right things; replaying these scenarios against real harness CLIs checks that
+agents _do_ them.
+
+## Run
+
+```sh
+aiw eval run --scenarios                    # all scenarios, harnesses detected on PATH
+aiw eval run --scenarios --harness=codex    # one harness only
+aiw eval run --scenarios --filter=approval  # one family/id substring
+aiw eval run --scenarios --advisory         # report-only: always exit 0
+```
+
+Results are written to `.aiw/generated/evals/scenario-results.yml` (schema
+`aiw.scenario-results/v1`). A missing harness CLI marks its scenarios
+`skipped-harness-unavailable` — never a silent pass. Failed scenarios exit 1
+unless `--advisory` is set.
+
+## Budgets
+
+Per scenario: `budget.wallClockS` (wall clock kill → `aborted-timeout`) and
+`budget.tokenCeiling` (reported usage above the ceiling → `aborted-budget`).
+Pooled nightly budgets live in the target repository's `.aiw/budgets.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+evals:
+  tokenCeiling: 2000000 # pooled across a run; exhausted → remaining scenarios aborted-pool
+```
+
+Token usage is recorded only when the harness reports it (usage sidecar);
+absence is never fabricated.
+
+## Statuses
+
+| Status                        | Meaning                                                  |
+| ----------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `passed`                      | state outcomes matched on the first attempt              |
+| `failed`                      | expectations violated (e.g. agent approved its own work) |
+| `skipped-harness-unavailable` | harness CLI not on PATH                                  |
+| `flaky-suspect`               | passed on the single retry after a transport failure     |
+| `aborted-timeout`             | wall clock killed the harness (retried once)             |
+| `aborted-budget`              | per-scenario token ceiling exceeded                      |
+| `aborted-pool`                | pooled budget exhausted before the scenario started      |
+
+## Advisory-first ratchet
+
+Scenarios are report-only for two release cycles before any of them becomes a
+CI gate (behavioral flakiness must be characterized before it can block). The
+approval-boundary family is scheduled to gate first.
