docs(review-suite): run the preregistered v2 ablation and integration closeout (#57) - #88

## Summary
- Add an optional `--skill-root` argument to `runner.py`'s evaluation CLI (and
a `skill_root` keyword on `evaluate()`/`target_skill_documents()`/
`target_skill_prompt()`), defaulting to the real `skills/` tree so every
existing call site and report is unaffected.
- Record the resolved root verbatim as `configuration.skill_root` in every
report, so a run against an alternate root can never be mistaken for a
standard-configuration one.
- Add two eval-only `review-correctness/SKILL.md` overlays under
`review-suite/evals/v2/ablation-skill-roots/{traversal-only,verification-only}/`,
each disabling exactly one of the two required passes (consumer/impact
traversal, verification-sufficiency) for measurement purposes only. Neither
overlay is installed, distributed, or referenced by the shipped skill.
## Why
- #57 (the epic's acceptance-gate ticket) requires scoring
`s1-correctness-orchestrator` in three configurations preregistered by
`gate-manifest.json`: traversal-only, verification-sufficiency-only, and
both together. The shipped `review-correctness` skill deliberately performs
both passes unconditionally, by design (`SKILL.md`: "not routed specialist
modules"), so no runtime toggle exists or should be added to the shipped
skill itself.
- This gives the ablation measurement a way to isolate each pass's
contribution without touching the shipped skill, without duplicating the
full `skills/` tree in git (only the one changed file per configuration is
committed; the rest is mirrored from the real tree at run time), and without
changing behavior for any existing caller of `runner.py`.
## Summary - Backfill 16fc32a's SHA onto the previous top entry and add a new bullet for the skill-root ablation override commit, per AGENTS.md's changelog convention. ## Why - review-code-change's initial pass on this checkpoint flagged the missing entry as a gating strong_recommendation finding; this is the exact, smallest fix.
…ntegration closeout (#57) ## Summary - Score `s1-correctness-orchestrator` in the two ablation configurations `gate-manifest.json` still needed (traversal-pass-only, verification-sufficiency-pass-only), 35 attempts each under the fixed (`1.1`) grader, using the new `--skill-root` override. Reuse the already-run "both passes together" configuration and the `s2`/`s3` non-regression figures from predecessor measurement tasks in this epic rather than re-spending on them. - Add `FROZEN-V2-CONFIGURATION.md` (the exact scored configuration, the reviewed grader-version transition, and the ablation mechanism), `S1-ABLATION-MATRIX.md` (the three-configuration comparison against the settled per-case gate, including the honest finding that neither pass demonstrates unique causal contribution to its own target case, and the real non-regression floor violation found under the isolated verification-only configuration), `DETERMINISTIC-AND-INTEGRATION-EVIDENCE.md` (every required deterministic gate and caller-integration scenario cited against its exact existing #51-#56 test), and `CLOSEOUT-REPORT.md` (the full synthesis, mechanism-by-mechanism recommendation, residual risks, and spend against the $20 ceiling). - Update `review-suite/evals/v2/README.md` and the top-level `README.md` to point at the new scored closeout documents. ## Why - #57 is the epic's (#49) acceptance-gate ticket: it must run the preregistered scored comparison, verify deterministic and caller-integration invariants, and report - per mechanism - whether it earned its complexity. This candidate does the reporting; it does not remove any mechanism or file any follow-up issue, since #57 is explicitly withheld that authority. ## Spend - $7.44 of this ticket's own $20.00 ceiling ($0.009 runtime/model sanity check + $3.560 traversal-only + $3.867 verification-only); $12.56 headroom never approached.

## Summary
- The committed `ablation-skill-roots/{traversal-only,verification-only}/`
directories only ever held the one changed `review-correctness/SKILL.md`
file per configuration, not a full mirror of the four-skill dependency
closure `--skill-root` requires. The two scored runs actually pointed
`--skill-root` at a fresh local mirror of the real `skills/` tree with that
one file overlaid, and each report's own `configuration.skill_root` field
records that ephemeral, machine-local path, not the committed directory.
- Correct `FROZEN-V2-CONFIGURATION.md` and `S1-ABLATION-MATRIX.md` to state
this accurately: what path was actually recorded, why the committed
directories can't be pointed at directly, and the exact steps to reproduce
either scored configuration from the committed overlay files.
## Why
- A fresh full review-code-change pass on the complete candidate found that
the previous wording claimed the committed overlay directories were used
directly as `--skill-root`, which both reports' own `configuration` field
contradicts. The scored numbers themselves are unaffected (the ephemeral
content used is verified byte-identical to the committed overlay files
modulo a later `mdformat` line-wrap pass), but the epic's final,
permanent acceptance-gate record must describe its own methodology
accurately.

Summary
Runs the preregistered v2 scored ablation and reports the epic's (#49)
acceptance-gate closeout for #57. Verifies every required deterministic gate
and caller-integration scenario against existing #51-#56 evidence, adds the
one piece of new infrastructure needed to score
s1-correctness-orchestrator'stwo remaining ablation configurations (an eval-only
--skill-rootoverride),runs them for real ($7.44 of this ticket's own $20 ceiling, $12.56 headroom
never approached), and reports a mechanism-by-mechanism recommendation.
This PR reports; it does not remove any mechanism or file any follow-up
issue - both are explicitly withheld authority for #57. #51/#52/#53/#56 are
untouched, and no new GitHub issue was created.
What's new
review-suite/scripts/evals/runner.py: optional--skill-rootoverride(default: the real
skills/tree, every existing caller unaffected), so amechanism ablation can be scored without editing the shipped
review-correctnessskill, which deliberately performs both its requiredpasses unconditionally.
review-suite/evals/v2/ablation-skill-roots/{traversal-only,verification-only}/:two eval-only
review-correctness/SKILL.mdoverlays, each disablingexactly one required pass, used only as scored-measurement fixtures.

s1-correctness-orchestrator-ablation-{traversal,verification}-only.report.json).Key finding (reported plainly, not smoothed over)
Both
s1target cases pass their settled gate in every configuration tested,including the one where their nominal owning pass is disabled - extending
a predecessor task's own finding that even a pre-#53, zero-pass reviewer
already resolved both cases once graded by the fixed (
1.1) grader. Passingthe numeric gate is real; neither pass demonstrates unique causal
contribution to its own target case on this evidence. Separately, the
verification-sufficiency pass, when isolated (no traversal pass alongside
it), regresses
session-continuation-summary's false-positive floor (3/5against a required 0/5) - a real, disclosed quality cost that does not appear
in the as-shipped combined configuration. See
CLOSEOUT-REPORT.mdfor thefull mechanism-by-mechanism recommendation.
