## Activation Contract

Load when the frontmatter trigger terms apply to a defect workflow.

This skill guides public collaboration. It does not grant issue approval, label, review, exception, or merge authority.

## Hard Rules

- Check the user-owned RDD kill switch first. When disabled, do not start receipt reviews or fabricate approval; follow ordinary policy and report `disabled/unmanaged`.
- Require an approved issue (`status:approved`) and clean current `main` reproduction before implementation. Audit existing PRs for supersession or conflict; stop or narrow stale claims.
- Group by causal authority invariant. Use one issue and one PR or explicit chain per independent invariant and rollback boundary. Split independent causes; never merge a superseded or conflicting authority line.
- Inventory every operator flow claimed by the issue or PR, including entry, mode, environment, expectation, and negative controls. Require one truthful black-box bench journey per CLI or lifecycle flow, or actual runtime E2E proof when the core bench cannot represent it. Synthetic proxy coverage never proves another runtime.
- Use CodeGraph-first impact mapping, a dedicated worktree, and behavior-first tests. Run source-mutating normalization before candidate freeze.
- Forecast authored changes before edits. The hard limit is 400 additions plus deletions; above it, STOP for a chain or explicit maintainer-approved exception.
