# Review Checkpoint

The final human checkpoint. Organize the review around intent and risk first, then
provide file and line references. Do not ask a human to review an unexplained file
list.

## Original intent (one sentence)

What we set out to accomplish, from the intent contract or spec.

## Implemented behavior

What the system now does, stated in observable terms.

## Files and systems affected

- Files changed.
- Systems or services touched.
- External effects (deployments, data, credentials) — if any.

## Highest-risk decisions

- The decisions with the largest blast radius, and why they were made.
- Alternatives considered (briefly) and why they were rejected.

## Verification performed

- Tests run (and their outcomes).
- Manual observations.
- Independent review performed (who/what) or explicitly skipped and why.

## Review findings and disposition

| Finding | Severity | Disposition (fixed / deferred / won't fix) |
|---|---|---|
|  |  |  |

## Residual risks and deferred work

- Risk:
- Deferred item (and where it is tracked):

## Decision

- [ ] **Accept** — result is fit for purpose.
- [ ] **Rework** — specific findings must be addressed.
- [ ] **Investigate** — evidence is insufficient; more work needed before a call.
