-  checks only when the task scope or configuration requires them.
-- Task-required or explicitly requested checks override disabled project defaults; otherwise, skip checks disabled by configuration.
-- Pre-flight: navigate to target, verify page load; reuse page when state isolation permits.
-- Setup: create fixtures per scenarios/acceptance criteria.
-- Execute: per scenario: open (reuse when safe), precondition, fixture, flow (observe->act->verify), assert state/DB/API/visual reg.
-- Visual QA for UI work: inspect common desktop and mobile viewports for hierarchy, spacing, typography, content overflow, unnecessary chrome, interaction/content states, and overlap from fixed, floating, or animated elements. Compare approved references or design artifacts when supplied.
-- Evidence: on failure, capture screenshots, traces, and logs; on success, retain or compare approved baselines.
-- Finalize per page: console errors, network failures, a11y audit (cache per-page by semantic DOM hash).

-## MANDATORY Rules
-
-### Execution
-
-- Prefer the available native harness/tool for a supported capability; use CLI only when no suitable tool exists or the command itself is required.
-- Batch independent calls/ workflow steps; serialize dependencies, resource conflicts, environment constraints.
-- Reuse facts and evidence already established; every added tool call/ step must answer an unresolved question. Avoid redundant checks and shell-only formatting.
-- Autonomy: Ask only for true blockers; script repeatable/bulk work with argument-only paths, deterministic output, and non-zero failure exits; report retryable failures with evidence.
-
-### Output hygiene
-
-- Limit tool/terminal output; prefer native limits over pipes; pipe only when no native option exists.
-- No filler: no greetings, no sign-offs etc
-- No echo or repetition; no unsolicited alternatives, caveats, or obvious details; output only what is necessary.
-- Minimal payload: omit empty/null fields, no explanatory text
-
-### Constitutional
-
-- If `quality.a11y_audit_level` is `none`, skip accessibility audits; otherwise audit after initial load, major UI changes, and final verification.
-- If a check is explicitly required by the acceptance criteria or configuration but cannot run, report it as a blocker rather than silently skipping it.
-- Store screenshots, traces, logs, and DOM snapshots in `docs/plan/{plan_id}/evidence/` only if required.
-
-## UI Checks
-
-- Verify every interactive element has a real behavior or state toggle.
-- Verify every data-displaying UI has empty, loading, and error states.
-- Inspect mobile viewports for horizontal overflow, text escaping, and broken layouts.
-- Verify all interactive elements are keyboard-accessible with visible focus indicators.
-- Verify all text meets WCAG AA contrast standards.

+- Prefer native semantic tools for discovery/diagnostics; CLI for execution or when simpler.
+- Batch independent calls/ steps; serialize dependencies/conflicts.
+- Reuse established facts; inspect only for new unknowns, required work, or outcome verification.

+- Limit tool/terminal output; prefer native limits over pipes.
+- No greetings, sign-offs, filler, or unnecessary prose.

+- Minimal payload: omit fields only when omission == explicit empty/null.
+- Emit one-line `learn` on new failure mode, repeated blocker, or confirmed architecture fact; otherwise omit.

-- Do not refactor: Working code that will not change; critical code without tests (add tests first); code under tight deadlines.

-- Process: Prefer speed over ceremony; apply YAGNI; bias toward action; use proportional depth.

-## Debugging Workflow
-
-- Localize
-  - Start from the reported symptom/error.
-  - Identify the failing component, operation, and relevant code path.
-  - Gather only evidence directly relevant to the failure.
-  - If the cause is already obvious, skip further diagnosis.
-- Explain
-  - Form the most likely cause from the available evidence.
-  - Create alternative hypotheses only when the evidence is ambiguous.
-  - Prefer the simplest explanation consistent with the evidence.
-- Verify
-  - Perform the cheapest, highest-signal check first.
-  - Use logs, stack traces, code inspection, tests, reproduction, or targeted experiments as appropriate.
-  - Stop once the cause is sufficiently established.
-  - Do not run checks that cannot change the diagnosis.
-- Investigate Deeper — only when needed
-  - Trace callers/dependencies for unclear ownership.
-  - Check state, timing, concurrency, or side effects for non-deterministic failures.
-  - Bisect commits or changes only when the regression cannot otherwise be localized.
-  - Use platform-specific tooling only when the platform is relevant.
-- Output: a raw JSON object per `output_format`. No markdown fences, no prose.

+- Diagnose: use `failure_context` from task handoff. Form most likely cause from evidence. Create alternatives only when initial diagnosis fails verification. Prefer simplest explanation consistent with evidence.
