fix(factory): make artifact inspection deterministic

 Writer completion is valid only when its structured `completed` is true, `open_questions` is valid, and caught file validation confirms the four expected physical files (`research.md`, `meta.yaml`, `external.md`, and `speakeasy.md`) and allowed paths. Revision completion is valid only when its structured `completed` is true, `addressed` and `disputed` are valid arrays, caught file validation confirms allowed paths/artifacts, and a later confirmatory review wave verifies the edits. Structured claims never substitute for physical verification.
 
+Perform phase artifact validation only through the repository-owned helper, using the exact command for the current phase: `bash factory/scripts/inspect-guide-artifacts.sh <slug> research`, `bash factory/scripts/inspect-guide-artifacts.sh <slug> writer`, or `bash factory/scripts/inspect-guide-artifacts.sh <slug> revision`. Run it from `/workspace` in a caught boundary and validate its JSON result. Do not construct ad hoc artifact-validation commands with `find`, `test`, `jq`, or another tool, and do not substitute the linter for this check.
+Accept only the exact keys `slug`, `stage`, and `artifacts`, with string slug/stage values equal to the command arguments and a sorted, unique string artifact array. Research accepts exactly `["meta.yaml","research.md"]` or the full four-file array `["external.md","meta.yaml","research.md","speakeasy.md"]`. Writer and revision require the full four-file array. Any other output is a caught validation failure.

 ## Phase 1 — read inputs and resolve identity
 
 Begin Phase 1 with one caught boundary executing exactly `bash factory/scripts/inspect-inputs.sh /input/issue.json /input/catalog.json`. Read issue evidence, catalog identity fields, available personas, and existing guide slugs only from that command's JSON output; do not construct another initial-inspection tool program or read either raw input another way. Resolve exactly one provider and lowercase kebab-case slug from this output. Prefer an existing slug on a confident match; never create an alias duplicate. If provider/slug is missing, conflicting, or ambiguous, choose `blocked`, leave all three identity fields null, and report without guide edits.

 Scope-gate classification is strict. Material uncertainty is limited to an unknown authentication model, endpoint, required credential, security-sensitive operator choice, provider capability or feasibility, or an unresolved authoritative-source conflict that could make the guide unsafe or unusable. Presentation-only uncertainty never selects `awaiting_scope`. Missing exact UI labels, control names or locations, and equivalent Save/Update/Apply chrome are presentation-only when the underlying operation and required value are known. After a reasonable source search, preserve documented identifiers, write a resilient hedge such as the visible or equivalent control, record the documentation silence, and continue. Open questions alone do not select `awaiting_scope`; classify each by its effect on safe first connection.
 
-Start the technical-research subagent in a caught boundary with the selected persona file, authority files, resolved identity/catalog facts, issue evidence, existing artifacts, primary-source requirement, and write access only to `research.md` and `meta.yaml`. Set `output_schema` to the exact `factory/schemas/research-status.schema.json`. Apply the universal transport/schema check and one-repair limit. In another caught file-validation boundary, confirm both artifacts are physical regular files and agree with the valid output. Only material unanswered decisions select `awaiting_scope`; authoritative evidence blockers select `blocked`; operational/caught errors select `failed`. Each terminal state skips later model phases and reaches reporting.

Only material factual decisions under the Phase 2 scope-gate definition select `awaiting_scope`; presentation-only uncertainty must be hedged and rendered, and caught errors select `failed`.

 ## Phase 4 — bounded concurrent review/revision state machine

 Each reviewer runs in its own caught boundary with `output_schema` equal to `factory/schemas/review-findings.schema.json` and the universal one-repair protocol. The full concurrent dispatch/collection runs in an enclosing caught boundary. Run the shell/linter in its own caught boundary from `/workspace`, exactly `/usr/local/bin/lint-guide --json /workspace/guides/<slug>`; never invoke `go` or `go run`. Validate parsed linter JSON before use. A completed review wave means valid output from all 3 reviewers plus a successfully parsed linter result. A failed reviewer output, malformed output after repair, linter failure, or invalid linter JSON fails the wave and must not complete the wave and therefore do not increment `review_rounds`; it selects `failed` and routes to reporting.
 
-Only after a completed review wave increment actual `review_rounds` by one (maximum 3). Normalize semantic duplicates without dropping sources; linter blockers equal reviewer blockers. If there are no blockers, select `converged`. If blockers remain and `review_rounds < 3`, start exactly one revision in a caught boundary with all normalized findings, doctrine, current files, and the selected persona; forbid external research and outside edits. Revision agents must not run validation commands; the coordinator owns post-edit file validation and the next complete review wave. Explicitly prohibit validation including `go`, `go run`, `npx`, Python, and `/usr/local/bin/lint-guide`; tell the revision agent to make only the requested allowed-path edits and return its structured result. Its strict `output_schema` has only `completed` (boolean), `addressed` (array), and `disputed` (array). Apply one repair and revision completion verification, then always run a confirmatory review wave; a revision can never directly converge. Repeat while capacity remains. If the confirmatory third wave has final-round blockers, select `blocked`; do not revise again. Thus at most three review/revision rounds occur, represented by at most three complete waves, and the report records the actual count.

 Deterministic scenario rulings: failed reviewer output -> `failed`, zero increment, report; malformed output -> one same-session repair then `failed` on exhaustion; successful revision -> mandatory confirmatory review wave; final-round blockers -> `blocked` with `review_rounds = 3`.
