-      Do NOT expand it. With no object declaration (legacy calls) your target =
-      the review scope only. Findings that touch something outside this scope

Targeted path: when the correction touches only modules with a clear test mapping, you may target `node --test <file>` per `_touchedFiles` — an explicit narrowing when `verify`'s git-diff granularity is insufficient; this does NOT violate the no-hand-write rule (no hand-write = never skip `verify` and never hand-write your own full suite; targeted = a narrowing consistent with `verify`'s own location result).

 ⑤ Audit clean → call `advisor(type="code", documents = design docs + your delivery file list)` for the code review — LLM#2.
 ⑥ Findings to fix → fix them (invent nothing new) → run L0 only; default is NO advisor re-review. Only if a fix touched files the last review did not cover, run ③ again first.
