# TRIAGE & VALIDATION
One wrong answer = STOP **this finding**. Kill **the finding**. Move on **to the next test class**.
> **Scope of "STOP" in this skill:** This skill's gates kill INDIVIDUAL FINDINGS that fail validation. They do NOT authorize stopping the engagement. Killing a finding via the 7-Question Gate just means *that finding* doesn't get submitted — every other test class in the engagement is still pending. See `redteam-mindset` "DO NOT STOP primary directive" for the coverage-axis rule.
> "N/A hurts your validity ratio. Informative is neutral. Only submit what passes all 7 questions."

## THE 7-QUESTION GATE
Ask IN ORDER. One wrong answer = STOP immediately.
