Whiteboard answer shape

1. Name baseline manifest and failing domain boundary.
2. Name owner and escalation path.
3. Explain mechanism driving metric movement.
4. Ask for artifact proving first failure.
5. Propose minimal reversible fix.
6. Define focused + full regression scope.

Reports and artifacts

• closure dashboard

• owner matrix

• regression summary

Mini case study

Capture baseline and owner before proposing fixes.

Debug branches

• Check baseline

• Check owner mapping

Senior review question

Ask: what baseline, owner, and artifact prove this topic is truly closed?
