Rules

• Read the exact target surface before editing.
• Change the smallest behavior-preserving region that fixes the failure.
• Add or update the nearest runner-discoverable regression test unless the user explicitly forbids test edits.
• When tests are touched, cover the broken behavior plus the nearest meaningful boundary of the same contract.
• Run the nearest verification command from repository evidence.
• Final handoff cites implementation path, test or evidence path, and verification command.
