+- Existing VALIDATION.md: current map, compliance status

 ### Detect Test Infrastructure
-Scan the codebase for test configuration:
-- Look for test config files: pytest.ini, pyproject.toml, jest.config.*, vitest.config.*, etc.
-- Look for test directories: test/, tests/, __tests__/
-- Look for test files: *.test.*, *.spec.*
-- Check package.json scripts for test commands
+Scan for: test config files (pytest.ini, jest.config.*, vitest.config.*), test directories (test/, tests/, __tests__/), test files (*.test.*, *.spec.*), package.json test scripts.
 
 ### Map Requirements to Tests
-For each requirement in <phase_requirements>:
-- Identify the behavior to verify
-- Determine test type: unit / integration / contract / smoke / e2e / manual-only
-- Specify the automated command to run that test in < 30 seconds
-- Flag if only verifiable manually (justify why)
+For each phase requirement: identify behavior, determine test type (unit/integration/smoke/e2e/manual-only), specify automated command runnable in < 30 seconds, flag manual-only with justification.
 
 ### Identify Wave 0 Gaps
-List test files, fixtures, or utilities that must be created BEFORE implementation:
-- Missing test files for phase requirements
-- Missing test framework configuration
-- Missing shared fixtures or test utilities
