+1. **Stale spec.** The requirements file is UNCHANGED by this diff and the PR title or description presents the behavior change as intended → the file is behind the code. That is doc drift, not a conflict: record ONE \`issuesFound\` entry (severity \`medium\` is enough) naming the file and the section that needs updating. Emit no \`<requirement_conflict>\` block and no failing test.
+2. **Spec edited by the diff.** The diff changes the requirements file → its POST-EDIT text is the intent; judge the code against the NEW text only, never the old. A file edited to match a bug does not bless the bug — if the code contradicts even the newly written text, that is still a conflict.
+3. **Generated or URL specs carry no authority.** A file generated from the code (written by a build step, or served by the running app) or a spec given as a URL rather than a repo path (\`api.schemaPath\` accepts one) restates the code and cannot contradict it. It is never a requirement source — the code is its source of truth.
+4. **No guessing which file is the spec.** Only files the title or description actually NAMES are requirement sources. Never scan conventional locations (\`docs/requirements/\`, \`specs/\`, \`*.feature\`) for a file nobody mentioned. An empty, templated, or boilerplate description names none, so the requirement set is that (empty) description and nothing else — an unmentioned old spec never becomes a requirement, and never a CRITICAL one. The absence of a requirements file is not itself a finding: treat the description alone as the requirement set and move on — do not report the missing file in \`issuesFound\`.`;

+**Requirement-conflict coverage gate (runs alongside the bug gate, and is checked first):**
+Verify that every \`<requirement_conflict>\` mismatch promoted in Step ${EXEC_STEP_CODE_REVIEW} has exactly one GENERATE item with category \`requirement_conflict\` asserting the STATED requirement — meaning the test FAILS on the current code and PASSES once the code matches the description. Requirement conflicts hold the first slots of the promotion bound, so a run that finds one of each promotes both. For each promoted mismatch with no such GENERATE item:
+- Check ADDITIONAL for a matching test → promote it into the lowest-priority non-bug, non-requirement-conflict, non-CRITICAL GENERATE slot first.
+- If no ADDITIONAL candidate matches, create one and insert it, displacing the lowest-priority non-bug, non-requirement-conflict, non-CRITICAL GENERATE item; displace an attack-surface \`security_boundary\` item only when every GENERATE slot is higher priority.
+- If the requirement is not observable as a test at all, the VERIFY-style ADDITIONAL entry from Step ${EXEC_STEP_CODE_REVIEW} satisfies this gate — an empty GENERATE slot with no entry anywhere does not.
+A \`requirement_conflict\` test is NEVER considered a "duplicate" of a \`bug_caught\` test or of a non-bug test during the dedup below, even when both target the same endpoint or page: they assert different things about it.
+
 Each GENERATE item must exercise a **distinct code path** — not just different input values on the same path.
 
 For each pair of GENERATE items, ask: same HTTP method + path + step sequence + expected status? → DUPLICATE. Keep the richer item; replace the other with a test from a different path below. Move the displaced item to ADDITIONAL.

 **Validates line — applies to \`testType: "ui"\` entries.** The \`Validates:\` line for UI entries should describe an observable behavior the test verifies — what changes on the page after the action, or what state the user can see. Ground this description in the captured blueprint when possible. Reference structural facts (an element appears, a count changes, a status text updates, a URL transitions) rather than implementation language (component names, props, internal state). The line should be readable to someone who has not seen the source diff.
 
+**Negative assertions from the PR description (\`requirement_conflict\`).** When the description says an element should be gone and a captured page still renders it, write the failing absence assertion — the element name comes from the capture, so it IS grounded, and the assertion documents the conflict.

The "Fill in placeholders, then display verbatim" rule above refers to the CATALOG STRUCTURE (sections, ordering, test types); UI entries' \`reasoning\` and \`Validates:\` CONTENT follows this grounding rule.
 
 **If blueprint data isn't available** — agent skipped pre-scan, app unreachable, \`BlueprintInvariantError\`, or no candidate page covers the changed component — UI entries must fall back as follows: set \`targetElements: null\`, omit \`pageContext\`, prefix BOTH \`description\` and \`reasoning\` with \`[no-blueprint-data]\`, and log the failure in \`issuesFound\` with \`info\` severity. Do NOT silently produce ungrounded reasoning without the marker in both fields.
