//! **G2.5 — adversarial review.**
//!
//! A second pass against `conventions.md` and any lessons in force, looking
//! specifically for the two things a passing G2 cannot see:
//!
//! * **test-invalidation** — the test suite is green because a test was
//!   weakened, not because the code was fixed. This is `TEST-INVALID` in the
//!   Phase 3 taxonomy, and it is the single most dangerous green build there is.
//! * **scope creep** — the change is larger than what was agreed, in a way the
//!   blast-radius check did not catch because the files were technically in
//!   scope.
//!
//! The heuristics here are deliberately crude and deliberately loud about being
//! crude: each produces a `blocked` verdict inviting a human look, not a `fail`,
//! except where the evidence is unambiguous. A reviewer plugin (a driver run in
//! critique mode) can be configured to do the real work; until Phase 3 populates
//! the lesson store, these heuristics are what stands between a green G2 and a
//! merge.
