+For each module with high churn (top quartile in the 1m window), check how contract-heavy and how covered it is:
 
 - Does its code own cross-cutting contract surfaces (schema/data access, wire handlers, auth/authz, event dispatch, env/config readers)? Skim the module's files to judge — contract-heavy churn is where silent breakage lives.
 - Is the module's owning feature doc up to date? (cross-reference with the maintenance agent's last drift check if available)
 - Do the module's code paths appear under any feature doc's `owns:` globs?
 
-Flag risk zones: high churn × contract-heavy × low doc coverage. These are where silent breakage is most likely.

-- Run all classification subagents on the cheapest capable tier to minimize cost; they are independent and context-isolated
-- Always report progress: "Dispatching batch 1-5 of 12..." etc.
-- If git commands fail (bad branch, bad date range), stop and report the error clearly
-- Pipe characters in commit messages must be replaced with dashes before writing to CSV
-- Risk-zone identification judges contract-heaviness from the code itself (Step 7) — no persisted boundary docs exist or are needed

 1. Read `./docs/structure.md` to understand the documentation structure
 2. If `./docs/features/README.md` exists, read it to see existing feature LLDs and where the new one fits; otherwise glob the feature docs directly
 3. If `./docs/memory/lld-mode.md` exists (or the legacy `./docs/memory/spec-mode.md`), read it for feature doc inventory, ownership conflict zones, and lessons from previous research
 4. Read 1-2 existing feature LLDs in `./docs/features/` to calibrate format and depth
-5. Consult the **injected ownership index** (the generated `glob → doc · module · keywords · status` map — the union of every feature doc's `owns:` frontmatter) to build the ownership map. This is the source of truth for what code paths are already owned. If the index isn't present in context, glob `docs/features/**/*.md` and read each doc's `owns:` frontmatter directly.
