Debug a false result

1. Reproduce on current main with --format json --quiet. Save one command that shows the wrong result. Change no code before this command exists. After a restart or an update, clear the .fallow/ cache first.
2. Reduce to a minimal fixture without losing the behavior.
3. Write 3 to 5 ranked hypotheses. Each one predicts a result that one probe can disprove. Test one hypothesis per probe.
4. Trace the finding through extract, resolve, graph, reachability, analysis, suppression, filters, and report assembly.
5. Fix the earliest incorrect layer. Fix the pattern, not the instance (see test evidence in docs/development/quality-gates.md). After 3 failed fixes, stop and write down the premise that they share. Question that premise before a fourth fix.
6. Add a regression test that fails without the fix.
7. Run the fixed binary on a real consumer project with a cleared .fallow/ cache and compare old versus new output.
8. Run review with the affected surface reviewers.

Do not tune expected output around one fixture when the semantic model requires a broader correction.
