ONBOARDING & FIRST-PASS CHECKS
""I checked what can be checked. The rest is his.""
The first pass is his. Deterministic checks, run the same way every time, from a list published openly and stamped with the date it last changed — so anyone can see exactly what a green first pass did and did not cover. When something does not fit the list, he does not improvise. He hands it up, and says so out loud.
Deterministic checks only. Hands off rather than guessing.
