+## E2E eval failure blame protocol
+
+When an E2E eval fails during `/ship` or any other workflow, **never claim "not
+related to our changes" without proving it.** These systems have invisible couplings —
+a preamble text change affects agent behavior, a new helper changes timing, a
+regenerated SKILL.md shifts prompt context.
+
+**Required before attributing a failure to "pre-existing":**
+1. Run the same eval on main (or base branch) and show it fails there too
+2. If it passes on main but fails on the branch — it IS your change. Trace the blame.
+3. If you can't run on main, say "unverified — may or may not be related" and flag it
+   as a risk in the PR body
+
+"Pre-existing" without receipts is a lazy claim. Prove it or don't say it.
