description	Prove a change works end-to-end by driving the real flow — the dynamic counterpart to hima-verdict's static review.

Purpose

Exercise the actual runtime surface a change touches instead of trusting tests, a diff read, or a code review alone. hima-warden is the dynamic proof step: it drives the affected flow (UI, API, CLI) and observes real behavior before a completion claim is trusted.

When to use

Force at M+ for any change with a runtime surface (UI flow, API endpoint, CLI command).
Skip explicitly for docs-only or test-only diffs — there is nothing to drive.
Pairs with hima-verdict: verdict reviews statically, warden proves dynamically; neither substitutes for the other.

Steps

Identify the runtime surface the change actually touches (endpoint, screen, command).
Drive it for real — not a mock, not a dry-run: real request, real render, real invocation.
Walk the happy path first, then edge cases (empty/error states, boundary inputs).
Compare observed behavior against the charter's acceptance criteria, not against the implementer's own description of what it should do.
Record the evidence (command output, screenshot, transcript) that proves the flow ran.

Done when

The affected flow has been driven for real with recorded evidence, and the observed behavior matches (or explicitly deviates from, with a named gap) the charter's acceptance criteria.
