+# unconditional: decideVetoAction accepted it on the verdict string alone, the judge's own CHECK: lines were never run for a MEETS, and
+# R167's hold excluded MEETS by construction — 2–3 sessions per arm finished on a WRONG MEETS at 81–92% budget left and walked straight
+# through (html-js-filter, mvcc-lsm-compaction, gsea). FIX: with the lever on the judge persona demands one to three `CHECK:` lines whose
+# PASSING proves the task's own criteria; the harness runs them at once; a MEETS with no passing evidence (nothing named, or every named
+# check failed/inconclusive, and the workspace's own check entry point did not pass) with >= MIN_REMAINING (0.5) of the budget left is
+# HELD once — sharing CORTEX_FINISH_CONFIRM_MAX with R167 — with the check results, the budget and the junior's open_items; an
+# unverified MEETS also no longer silences the R151/R157 nudges. A MEETS backed by a passing check stands. Event: finish_confirm

+# a PROMPT clause did not take (pilot-12: 6% of tool-calling turns carried ANALYSIS + PLAN; 8/10 sessions ignored it). Terminus 2 does
+# not ask — its parser REJECTS a response missing the fields and re-prompts. This is that structural half: with ENFORCE=true a
+# tool-calling response whose visible text lacks a line-leading ANALYSIS and PLAN is rejected — its tool calls come back UNEXECUTED as
+# error results carrying the re-prompt — up to ENFORCE_MAX (2) times per turn, then the batch runs as-is (liveness). Finish batches
+# (EndTurn) are exempt. Pair with CORTEX_TURN_CONTRACT=channel (the prompt half). Events: turn_contract_reject {iteration, rejects,

+# HARNESS-DRIVEN text protocol over the existing single-shot helper call: the helper request path carries no tools (no tools/
+# tool_choice/tool role in any helper adapter), but the harness already RUNS judge-named checks (R166 runCheck) — the missing edge was
+# that the judge never saw the results of the commands it named in the same round. With ROUNDS > 1 the persona offers
+# `VERDICT: INVESTIGATE` + `CHECK: <cmd>` (read-only denylist: no rm/mv/git checkout/redirect-to-file/installs) + `READ: <path>[:a-b]`
+# (in-workspace file slices, 120 lines / 4 KB, binary + oversize refused); the harness executes them, appends an EVIDENCE block and
+# asks again, withdrawing the option on the last round or when the aggregate ROUND_BUDGET_MS (240 s) or 2x that of the wall budget is
+# gone; an INVESTIGATE after withdrawal abstains (never re-loops). Investigation checks that pass count as evidence for R168.
+# The thinking-on escalation is skipped when >1 round ran. Event endturn_resolver gains {toolRounds, roundsUsed, investigateChecks,
+# investigateReads, investigateRefused, roundLatencyMs, evidenceChars}; `mentor` describes the LAST call. Default 1 = 4.116.2.
