The self-improving loop fired for `itemlist-doubled-best` (now at 5 triggers). However, four high-volume defect classes are stuck at exactly 25 findings each (`product-name-truncation`, `missing-why-we-like-blurb`, `live-title-orphan-modifier`, `live-missing-faq-coverage`) — suspicious clustering suggesting detector saturation or batch-size limits, not actual code health. Multiple external service failures: IndexNow 403s (unauthorized), DataForSEO and analytics ticks returning HTTP 402 (payment/quota), Composio browser 401 (invalid API key), Google Sheets 403 (permissions). These are degrading observability and editorial feedback loops. | WHAT'S NOT HAPPENING (but should be): `rewrite-seo-regression`, `rewrite-jsonld-regression`, `rewrite-wirecutter-voice`, and `live-thin-h2-count` show zero findings despite editorial agent identifying 36 actionable fixes and 6 structural weaknesses.
