When something goes wrong at 3am, the request either fails with no log line or, worse, continues as if nothing happened. A flat sequence of three named steps with one error boundary at the end turns every failure into a named result (validation failed, access denied, dispatch failed) that gets logged with the tenant and reason and handed back to the caller.

(2) Intentional differences: typed outcomes (ValidationFailed / Denied / DispatchFailed) instead of swallowed errors (D4 → A); any further difference must be added to this list before merge.

re-enable with `gstack-config set codex_reviews enabled` and rerun for a second opinion.\n\n**VERDICT:** Not clear — eng review required. 12 of 13 findings are resolved by accepted amendments (D1–D8); implementation may begin with T1 (adapter probe) and T2 (SessionMint contract), but the plan is not fully approved until the R3 guard question is answered.\n\n**UNRESOLVED DECISIONS:**\n- R3 guard remedy — recheck-before-write guard for the cache adapter, conditional on the pre-implementation probe (D3 → Investigate). If the adapter accepts writes after invalidation unguarded, raise a new D-numbered decision (guard yes/no and its form) before T5/T6 start." ] }
