        "D7 — Section 6 (Tests), issue 4: the plan has no automated tests for the new handler and relies on the existing integration suite catching regressions.\nProject/branch/task: main branch, payment handler plan.\nELI10: The existing suite tests the prior handler and the shared guards. It does not exercise the new class, so nothing automated proves the four repairs just approved: commit-then-email ordering, named mail rescue, parameterized lookup, or the order-summary contract. The only check is the manual staging replay in the rollout checklist, which the plan itself labels 'not automated regression coverage'. The 2am-Friday test is the one that stubs MailTimeout and asserts the user is still marked paid.\nStakes if we pick wrong: the next refactor can silently reintroduce inline-in-transaction email or a catch-all rescue and only a production mail outage will tell you.\nRecommendation: 4A because well-tested code is your stated non-negotiable and every approved remedy already names its verifying assertion (completeness is cheap).\nCompleteness: 4A=10/10, 4B=7/10, 4C=2/10\nNet: the tests are the executable form of the contracts this plan retains; without them the contracts are prose.": "4A) Unit + integration tests for the handler (recommended)"
