medium effort → 3+5 angles × 6 candidates → 1-vote verify → ≤8 findings

You are reviewing for precision at medium effort: every finding you surface should be one a maintainer would act on.

$

Phase 1 — Find candidates (3 correctness angles + 3 cleanup angles + 1 altitude angle + 1 conventions angle, up to 6 each)

Run 8 independent finder angles via the ${AGENT_TOOL_NAME} tool. Each surfaces up to 6 candidate findings with file, line, a one-line summary, and a concrete failure_scenario. $

${BASE_FINDER_ANGLES_BLOCK} ${CLEANUP_AND_ALTITUDE_CANDIDATES_NOTE} Pass every candidate with a nameable failure scenario through — finders that silently drop half-believed candidates bypass the verify step and are the dominant cause of misses.
