+For /qa and /qa-only:
+- Browser Quick: SECONDS=30. Browser Full/Regression: SECONDS=900.
+- Functional Full, Quick and Regression have no default total timer.
+Set SECONDS to the shorter mode/caller limit; an unlimited mode uses the caller's bound.
+Without a total time limit, do not start D; announce finite command timeouts.
+Stop when scoped contracts are tested or blocked.
+Clocks/checkpoints use REPORT_DIR; mixed standalone runs use REPORT_DIR/browser and REPORT_DIR/functional, with one final report at REPORT_DIR. Caller paths win.
+R = owned probe directory; D = R/deadline.json. Quote paths.

+--public requires approved public/synthetic output; Q screens credentials. For complete private captures, await a safe Read of \`R/.qa-evidence/NNN/observation.json\`. Sensitive/incomplete captures cannot anchor checkpoints.

+${reportOnly ? `   For guarded text, copy the complete span between the guard's started and finished receipt lines.
+   Keep its whitespace and content fences verbatim. Do not summarize, relabel or add timing text.
+   The guard adds one newline before its finished receipt; that separator is not child text.
+   For unguarded text, copy the complete result instead.
+   If capture is incomplete, report that limit instead of reconstructing it.
+` : ''}   hypothesis: why nextCommand. nextCommand: exact command/request, guarded if bounded.
+   Preserve every safe program-JSON key/value and identity hash unchanged.
+   Withhold unsafe values, disclose limits and stop that chain.
+   Check fields before publication. No drafts/placeholders or invented safe-path redactions; corrections cannot repair published notes.
+   Functional: \`bun Q checkpoint R NNN CAPTURE_ID 'observationCommand' 'hypothesis' 'nextCommand'\` with literal arguments. Q supplies observed; never transcribe it.
+   Browser checkpoints use Write.
+   Wait for successful checkpoint publication before dispatch.
+   Never backfill or overwrite notes.
+3. Run that exact probe; G enforces the deadline when bounded.
+   Report refusals as not-run; retain initial state/inputs/results. Repeat from step 2.
+4. Replay the exact failing command/request from the same initial fixture state via steps 2–3 (same native command, fresh capture ID)
+   ${reportOnly ? 'to confirm it' : 'before repair'}, then minimize via those gates. Expiry leaves confirmation/minimization incomplete.

+## 3. Parent handoff
+
+${reportOnly ? `Never change product code, tests, configuration, dependencies or Git through any tool,

+with their failing contract and expected assertion; never create tests or freeze buggy output.` : `- **/qa:** parent owns severity, root-cause and Phase 8 regression gates before verified repair.
+- **/review:** return before Fix-First; test_stub proposals require ASK approval.
+- **Planning:** propose charters only; no execution.
+
+Choose the smallest native test: unit for logic, integration for state/requests; E2E only if smaller tests miss the journey, not automatically both.
+Mock only unrelated services.
+Never freeze buggy output, weaken tests or delete valid red tests.`}
+
+## 4. Final report
+
+Use the surface report template; link each checkpoint. Separate browser scores, functional outcomes and proposed/executed tests.
+For evidence.json, Write R/annotations.json: {revision, runtime, cwd, evidence: [{capture, command, contract, expected, classification}], learning: [checkpoint IDs], limits}.
+Run \`bun Q materialize R annotations.json\` before Markdown; Q fills observed/learning, not classifications. Retain all safe probes, including failures/replays; disclose withheld/incomplete evidence.
+Evidence is invocation-local${reportOnly ? '.' : '; /ship reruns once per invocation.'}
+Missing prerequisites/expectations/observations, timeouts and refusal never pass.
+Pass requires all required current-input contracts to pass with no required remainder.
+${reportOnly ? 'Report blocked, inconclusive and not-run coverage without claiming success.' : `Required failure leaves /review incomplete and /ship blocked unless the user explicitly accepts that named risk; noninteractive runs return blocked.

+## Functional modes
+
+For /qa and /qa-only, within the selected scope:
+- **Full** (default): cover every applicable documented contract below.
+- **Quick** (\`--quick\`): check success and the highest-risk changed edge; mark other
+  contracts not run.
+- **Regression** (\`--regression <previous-report>\`): before probes, read the supplied
+  functional report and linked replay evidence. A missing, unreadable or wrong-target
+  baseline blocks regression mode. A browser-only \`baseline.json\` is not a functional
+  baseline. Re-establish owned setup; replay prior failed probes against the documented
+  expectation, never recorded buggy output, then check changed adjacent behavior.
+  Preserve the prior report; report fixed, still failing and new findings separately.
+  Missing safe replay inputs block affected probes, never count as passes.
+
+Mixed runs apply each surface's mode separately. /review and /ship retain their caller's
+bounded smoke and explicit plan checks, not Full exploration.
+
+## Contract map
+
+Record each contract/source, isolated setup, exact probe, expectation and outcome:
+pass/fail/blocked/not run/inconclusive/not applicable (reason).
+
+| Contract | Observe |
+|---|---|
+| Successful execution | Expected return/output and final business effect, not just launch/acceptance |
+| Invalid/missing input | Declared rejection, correct status and no forbidden state change |
+| Authentication/authorization | Valid identity, missing/invalid identity, wrong owner/role and durable no-effect boundary |
+| CLI process contract | Exact exit code, stdout and stderr separately; resulting file/state changes |
+| State transitions | Initial, intermediate and completed/failed states and their permitted transitions |
+| Timeout/cancellation | Deadline, partial state, termination of owned work and recovery |
+| Retry | Attempts/backoff/terminal state promised by the repository; no unbounded retry |
+| Duplicates/idempotency | Repeated request/event and number of durable effects under the documented guarantee |
+| Concurrency/order | Controlled competing operations in both relevant completion orders; final invariant |
+| Partial-failure recovery | Interrupt after an effect, restart/replay, inspect completion/dead-letter state and duplicates |
+
+Do not impose universal exactly-once delivery. Separate acceptance, enqueue, processing,
+retry/dead-letter and final effect; 2xx is not completion. Expected rejection/injected
+failure may pass; a missing service preventing execution blocks coverage.
+
+## Execute and retain evidence
+
+1. Apply the shared isolation/permission preflight. Verify cwd, command, environment
+   NAMES and safe reset; use synthetic data/credentials.
+2. Follow the shared exploratory loop's order and written checkpoints.
+   For every probe, inspect initial/final durable state and retain exit/status and
+   stdout/stderr separately without masking failure.
+3. On timeout, retain partial output/state and stop only owned work. Record setup errors
+   and untested contracts; never patch product code to hide missing prerequisites.
+4. Record exact command or method/path/headers/body, setup/reset, expected contract/source,
+   observed output/state, revision/runtime, evidence paths and limits. Secrets are referenced
+   only by environment name. Disclose replay limits caused by redaction.
+5. Use \`templates/functional-report-template.md\` relative to the installed QA SKILL.md.
+   Preserve evidence before owned cleanup and disclose leftovers. Return to the caller
+   without expanding discovery authority.`;

+**3. Run smoke and plan checks.**

+
+**4. Check freshness before reporting.**
+Before every completion report or log, even with zero fixes or skipped specialists:

+   with current inputs, even without updates. Never rerun valid current passes.
+c. Re-review changed or uncertain coverage and repeat step 3 for affected checks.
+   Reporting reserves cannot stop required revalidation within the caller's deadline.
+d. Compare again after revalidation or edits/updates. Failed or unavailable Reads or
+   insufficient time block affected required checks. List failed, blocked, inconclusive and not-run checks.
+   Report clean/completed only when all required checks pass on current inputs; optional untested ideas do not block it.
+
+Return verified defects to Fix-First: \`path\`, \`line\`, \`category\`,
