33+- **Trigger:** nullable surprises, runtime validators, "should never happen" comments, fragile state.
44+- **Playbook:**

66+ - Design a stronger invariant via types, parsers, typestates, or smart constructors.
77+ - Sketch before/after shapes showing the illegal state removed.
88+ - Recommend verification: property test, check, or proof; note expected coverage.
99+- **Output:** Risk scenario, stronger invariant, sketch, verification plan; finish with an **Insights/Next Steps** line.

44+- **Playbook:**
55+ - Classify the text (prompt, doc, email, spec, comment) and optimization goal.
66+ - Prune redundancy and filler while preserving mandated language.
77+ - Elevate vocabulary and structure using Enhanced Semantic Density; stay TRACE-compliant.
