+### Phase 1: Language Detection

+   *Command:* `ls package.json requirements.txt pyproject.toml go.mod Cargo.toml 2>/dev/null`
+2. **count_source_files**: Assess codebase size
+   *Command:* `find . -name '*.js' -o -name '*.ts' -o -name '*.py' | wc -l`
+
+
+### Phase 2: Automated Scanning
+
+1. **run_npm_audit**: Check for dependency vulnerabilities
+   *Command:* `npm audit --json 2>/dev/null`
+2. **check_env_files**: Find .env files in repo
+   *Command:* `find . -name '.env*' -type f 2>/dev/null | grep -v node_modules`
+3. **check_git_history**: Check for secrets in git history
+   *Command:* `git log --oneline --all -- '*.env' '.env*' 2>/dev/null | head -10`
+4. **scan_for_secrets**: Pattern match for hardcoded secrets
+   *Command:* `grep -rn 'API_KEY\|SECRET\|PASSWORD' src/ --include='*.js' --include='*.ts' 2>/dev/null`
+
+
+### Phase 3: Code Review

+   *Command:* `grep -rn 'jwt\|token\|auth\|session' src/ --include='*.js' --include='*.ts' 2>/dev/null`

+### Phase 4: Score Calculation
+
+1. **score_categories**: Award points per criterion based on evidence
+2. **check_auto_fail**: Check all 6 auto-fail conditions
+3. **determine_decision**: SECURE if >= 85, CONDITIONAL if 70-84, BLOCKED if < 70 or auto-fail
+
+*Before finalizing, verify all 6 auto-fail conditions are checked. Critical findings automatically trigger BLOCKED regardless of score.*

-## Priority & Severity Mapping
-
-When generating the JSON OUTPUT section, map issues as follows:
-
-**Priority (for triage):**
-| Severity | Priority | Meaning |
-|----------|----------|---------|
-| Critical | `critical` | Blocks progression, must fix now |
-| High | `critical` | Should fix before next phase |
-| Medium | `suggested` | Should fix soon |
-| Low | `backlog` | Optional improvement |
-| Info | `backlog` | Informational only |
-
-**Severity is derived from failure_code suffix:**
-| Suffix | Severity | Priority |
-|--------|----------|----------|
-| `/C` | critical | critical |
-| `/H` | high | critical |
-| `/M` | medium | suggested |
-| `/L` | low | backlog |
-| `/I` | info | backlog |
-
-## Failure Code Selection
-
-**1. Use the default code from the criterion that failed** (e.g., `→ SEM-COM/H`)
-
-**2. Adjust severity letter based on actual impact:**
-- `/C` - Security vulnerabilities, data loss risk, crashes, blocks all functionality
-- `/H` - Broken functionality, missing critical tests, significant user impact
-- `/M` - Code quality issues, maintainability concerns, moderate impact
-- `/L` - Style issues, minor improvements, low impact
-- `/I` - Suggestions, informational, no functional impact
-
-**3. Consider context when adjusting:**
-- A naming issue in a public API → elevate to `/M` or `/H`
-- A complexity issue in rarely-used code → may stay at `/L`
-- Missing error handling in user-facing code → `/H` or `/C`
-- Missing error handling in internal utility → `/M`
