+# Due Diligence Checklist
+
+## Workflow
+
+### Step 1: Scope the Diligence
+
+Ask the user for:
+- **Target company**: Name, sector, business model
+- **Deal type**: Platform acquisition, add-on, growth equity, recap, carve-out
+- **Deal size / complexity**: Determines depth of diligence
+- **Key concerns**: Any known issues to prioritize (customer concentration, regulatory, environmental, etc.)
+- **Timeline**: When is LOI / close targeted?
+
+### Step 2: Generate Workstream Checklists
+
+Generate a checklist across all major workstreams, tailored to the sector:
+
+**Financial Due Diligence**
+- Quality of earnings (QoE) — revenue and EBITDA adjustments
+- Working capital analysis — normalized vs. actual
+- Debt and debt-like items
+- Capital expenditure (maintenance vs. growth)
+- Tax structure and exposure
+- Audit history and accounting policies
+- Pro forma adjustments (run-rate, synergies)
+
+**Commercial Due Diligence**
+- Market size and growth (TAM/SAM/SOM)
+- Competitive positioning and market share
+- Customer analysis — concentration, retention, NPS
+- Pricing power and contract structure
+- Sales pipeline and backlog
+- Go-to-market effectiveness
+
+**Legal Due Diligence**
+- Corporate structure and org chart
+- Material contracts (customer, supplier, partnership)
+- Litigation history and pending claims
+- IP portfolio and protection
+- Regulatory compliance
+- Employment agreements and non-competes
+
+**Operational Due Diligence**
+- Management team assessment
+- Organizational structure and key person risk
+- IT systems and infrastructure
+- Supply chain and vendor dependencies
+- Facilities and real estate
+- Insurance coverage
+
+**HR / People Due Diligence**
+- Org chart and headcount trends
+- Compensation benchmarking
+- Benefits and pension obligations
+- Key employee retention risk
+- Culture assessment
+- Union/labor agreements
+
+**IT / Technology Due Diligence** (for tech-enabled businesses)
+- Technology stack and architecture
+- Technical debt assessment
+- Cybersecurity posture
+- Data privacy compliance (GDPR, CCPA, SOC2)
+- Product roadmap and R&D spend
+- Scalability assessment
+
+**Environmental / ESG** (where applicable)
+- Environmental liabilities
+- Regulatory compliance history
+- ESG risks and opportunities
+
+### Step 3: Status Tracking
+
+For each item, track:
+
+| Item | Workstream | Priority | Status | Owner | Notes |
+|------|-----------|----------|--------|-------|-------|
+| QoE report | Financial | P0 | Pending | | |
+| Customer interviews | Commercial | P0 | In Progress | | 3 of 10 complete |
+
+Status options: Not Started → Requested → Received → In Review → Complete → Red Flag
+
+### Step 4: Red Flag Summary
+
+Maintain a running list of red flags discovered during diligence:
+- What was found
+- Which workstream
+- Severity (deal-breaker / significant / manageable)
+- Mitigant or path to resolution
+- Impact on valuation or deal terms
+
+### Step 5: Output
+
+- Excel workbook with tabs per workstream (default)
+- Summary dashboard: % complete by workstream, outstanding items, red flags
+- Weekly status update format for deal team
+
+## Sector-Specific Additions
+
+Automatically add relevant items based on sector:
+- **Software/SaaS**: ARR quality, cohort analysis, hosting costs, SOC2
+- **Healthcare**: Regulatory approvals, reimbursement risk, payor mix
+- **Industrial**: Equipment condition, environmental remediation, safety record
+- **Financial services**: Regulatory capital, compliance history, credit quality
+- **Consumer**: Brand health, channel mix, seasonality, inventory management
+
+## Important Notes
+
+- Prioritize P0 items that are gating to LOI or close
+- Flag items where the seller is slow to respond — may indicate issues
+- Cross-reference data room contents against the checklist to identify gaps
+- Update the checklist as diligence progresses — it's a living document

+
+## Recompute the LP capital account
+

+Beginning capital (prior statement ending)
+  + Contributions (capital calls paid this period)
+  − Distributions (cash + in-kind)
+  + Allocated net income / (loss)
+      = LP% × (realized + unrealized P&L − management fee − fund expenses)
+  − Carried interest allocation (if crystallized this period)
+Ending capital
+```
+
+Pull each input from the NAV pack: LP commitment %, fund-level P&L components, fee and expense totals, waterfall outputs.
+
+## Compare
+
+For each line on the statement, compare to your recomputed value. Tolerance: `0.01`. For each mismatch, note which input drives it (e.g., "allocated P&L differs — statement used 12.40% ownership, NAV pack shows 12.38% after the Q1 transfer").
+
+## Additional checks
+
+- Ending capital on this statement = beginning capital on next period's draft (if available).
+- Sum of all LP ending capitals = fund NAV (within rounding).
+- Commitment, unfunded, and recallable figures agree to the commitment register.
+
+## Output
+
+A pass/fail per line, the recomputed values alongside the statement values, and a list of flags. Do not edit the statement — the publisher acts on the flags after review.

+# Root-cause a break
+
+Given a single break row (key, GL values, subledger values, bucket, likely cause), trace it to source and produce a root-cause statement.
+
+## Trace path
+
+1. **Pull the GL side** — via the internal-gl MCP, fetch the journal entry or posting that produced this GL line: entry id, posting date, source system, batch id, preparer.
+2. **Pull the subledger side** — via the subledger MCP, fetch the matching transaction: trade id, trade/settle dates, counterparty, source feed, FX rate used.
+3. **Diff the attributes** — line up posting date, FX rate/date, account mapping, quantity sign, amount sign. The differing attribute is usually the cause.
+
+## Cause → statement
+
+Write the root cause as a single sentence in the form **"⟨side⟩ ⟨did what⟩ because ⟨reason⟩"**, e.g.:
+
+- "GL posted on settle date (T+2) while subledger posted on trade date — timing break, will clear on 2026-05-07."
+- "Subledger used WM/R 4pm rate; GL used Bloomberg close — FX break of 12 bps on the base amount."
+- "Security ABC123 maps to GL account 11420 in the mapping table but the subledger fed 11410 — mapping break, raise to reference-data."

+
+### 1. Correctness doubts
+
+- What input could make this produce a wrong answer?
+- What boundary value did I not test?
+- Is the off-by-one I didn't think about possible?
+- Are there NaN / Infinity / negative-zero cases I assumed away?
+
+### 2. Coverage doubts
+
+- Which path through the code has zero test coverage?
+- Which error branch is asserted only by happy-path tests?
+- Did I test the failure mode, or only the success?
+- If a downstream caller passes `undefined`, what happens?

+### 3. Concurrency doubts
+
+- What if two callers race on this state?
+- What if the network response arrives after the timeout fires?
+- Is there a check-then-act gap?
+
+### 4. Assumption doubts
+
+- What did I assume about the runtime that isn't enforced?
+- What did I assume about the input shape?
+- What did I assume about the user's intent?
+- What did I assume the previous code did that I never verified?
+
+### 5. Reversibility doubts
+
+- If this is wrong, how does the user roll back?
+- Does this mutate state that won't survive a restart?
+- Did I add a migration that can't be reversed?
+
+### 6. Observability doubts

+- If this fails in production, can the user diagnose it?

+
+# Diagnose
+
+A discipline for hard bugs. Skip phases only when explicitly justified.
+
+When exploring the codebase, use the project's domain glossary to get a clear mental model of the relevant modules, and check ADRs in the area you're touching.
+
+## Phase 1 — Build a feedback loop
+
+**This is the skill.** Everything else is mechanical. If you have a fast, deterministic, agent-runnable pass/fail signal for the bug, you will find the cause — bisection, hypothesis-testing, and instrumentation all just consume that signal. If you don't have one, no amount of staring at code will save you.
+
+Spend disproportionate effort here. **Be aggressive. Be creative. Refuse to give up.**
+
+### Ways to construct one — try them in roughly this order
+
+1. **Failing test** at whatever seam reaches the bug — unit, integration, e2e.
+2. **Curl / HTTP script** against a running dev server.
+3. **CLI invocation** with a fixture input, diffing stdout against a known-good snapshot.
+4. **Headless browser script** (Playwright / Puppeteer) — drives the UI, asserts on DOM/console/network.
+5. **Replay a captured trace.** Save a real network request / payload / event log to disk; replay it through the code path in isolation.
+6. **Throwaway harness.** Spin up a minimal subset of the system (one service, mocked deps) that exercises the bug code path with a single function call.
+7. **Property / fuzz loop.** If the bug is "sometimes wrong output", run 1000 random inputs and look for the failure mode.
+8. **Bisection harness.** If the bug appeared between two known states (commit, dataset, version), automate "boot at state X, check, repeat" so you can `git bisect run` it.
+9. **Differential loop.** Run the same input through old-version vs new-version (or two configs) and diff outputs.
+10. **HITL bash script.** Last resort. If a human must click, drive _them_ with `scripts/hitl-loop.template.sh` so the loop is still structured. Captured output feeds back to you.
+
+Build the right feedback loop, and the bug is 90% fixed.
+
+### Iterate on the loop itself
+
+Treat the loop as a product. Once you have _a_ loop, ask:
+
+- Can I make it faster? (Cache setup, skip unrelated init, narrow the test scope.)
+- Can I make the signal sharper? (Assert on the specific symptom, not "didn't crash".)
+- Can I make it more deterministic? (Pin time, seed RNG, isolate filesystem, freeze network.)
+
+A 30-second flaky loop is barely better than no loop. A 2-second deterministic loop is a debugging superpower.
+
+### Non-deterministic bugs
+
+The goal is not a clean repro but a **higher reproduction rate**. Loop the trigger 100×, parallelise, add stress, narrow timing windows, inject sleeps. A 50%-flake bug is debuggable; 1% is not — keep raising the rate until it's debuggable.
+
+### When you genuinely cannot build a loop
+
+Stop and say so explicitly. List what you tried. Ask the user for: (a) access to whatever environment reproduces it, (b) a captured artifact (HAR file, log dump, core dump, screen recording with timestamps), or (c) permission to add temporary production instrumentation. Do **not** proceed to hypothesise without a loop.
+
+Do not proceed to Phase 2 until you have a loop you believe in.
+
+## Phase 2 — Reproduce
+
+Run the loop. Watch the bug appear.
+
+Confirm:
+
+- [ ] The loop produces the failure mode the **user** described — not a different failure that happens to be nearby. Wrong bug = wrong fix.
+- [ ] The failure is reproducible across multiple runs (or, for non-deterministic bugs, reproducible at a high enough rate to debug against).
+- [ ] You have captured the exact symptom (error message, wrong output, slow timing) so later phases can verify the fix actually addresses it.
+
+Do not proceed until you reproduce the bug.
+
+## Phase 3 — Hypothesise
+
+Generate **3–5 ranked hypotheses** before testing any of them. Single-hypothesis generation anchors on the first plausible idea.
+
+Each hypothesis must be **falsifiable**: state the prediction it makes.
+
+> Format: "If <X> is the cause, then <changing Y> will make the bug disappear / <changing Z> will make it worse."
+
+If you cannot state the prediction, the hypothesis is a vibe — discard or sharpen it.
+
+**Show the ranked list to the user before testing.** They often have domain knowledge that re-ranks instantly ("we just deployed a change to #3"), or know hypotheses they've already ruled out. Cheap checkpoint, big time saver. Don't block on it — proceed with your ranking if the user is AFK.
+
+## Phase 4 — Instrument
+
+Each probe must map to a specific prediction from Phase 3. **Change one variable at a time.**
+
+Tool preference:
+
+1. **Debugger / REPL inspection** if the env supports it. One breakpoint beats ten logs.
+2. **Targeted logs** at the boundaries that distinguish hypotheses.
+3. Never "log everything and grep".
+
+**Tag every debug log** with a unique prefix, e.g. `[DEBUG-a4f2]`. Cleanup at the end becomes a single grep. Untagged logs survive; tagged logs die.
+
+**Perf branch.** For performance regressions, logs are usually wrong. Instead: establish a baseline measurement (timing harness, `performance.now()`, profiler, query plan), then bisect. Measure first, fix second.
+
+## Phase 5 — Fix + regression test
+
+Write the regression test **before the fix** — but only if there is a **correct seam** for it.
+
+A correct seam is one where the test exercises the **real bug pattern** as it occurs at the call site. If the only available seam is too shallow (single-caller test when the bug needs multiple callers, unit test that can't replicate the chain that triggered the bug), a regression test there gives false confidence.
+
+**If no correct seam exists, that itself is the finding.** Note it. The codebase architecture is preventing the bug from being locked down. Flag this for the next phase.
+
+If a correct seam exists:
+
+1. Turn the minimised repro into a failing test at that seam.
+2. Watch it fail.
+3. Apply the fix.
+4. Watch it pass.
+5. Re-run the Phase 1 feedback loop against the original (un-minimised) scenario.
+
+## Phase 6 — Cleanup + post-mortem
+
+Required before declaring done:
+
+- [ ] Original repro no longer reproduces (re-run the Phase 1 loop)
+- [ ] Regression test passes (or absence of seam is documented)
+- [ ] All `[DEBUG-...]` instrumentation removed (`grep` the prefix)
+- [ ] Throwaway prototypes deleted (or moved to a clearly-marked debug location)
+- [ ] The hypothesis that turned out correct is stated in the commit / PR message — so the next debugger learns
+
+**Then ask: what would have prevented this bug?** If the answer involves architectural change (no good test seam, tangled callers, hidden coupling) hand off to the `/improve-codebase-architecture` skill with the specifics. Make the recommendation **after** the fix is in, not before — you have more information now than when you started.
