However, three defect classes hit or exceeded the 5-in-24h trigger: itemlist-doubled-best (6), product-name-truncation (25), missing-why-we-like-blurb (25), live-title-orphan-modifier (25), live-missing-faq-coverage (25), and faq-near-duplicate-questions (12). Despite this, zero self-improvement triggers fired in this window. Multiple external service failures: Analytics/SEO API returning HTTP 402 (credit exhaustion), DataForSEO audit failing, Apify quota exceeded, Google Sheets 403 permission denied, and IndexNow 403 unauthorized (appears to be API key/site verification issue). | WHAT'S NOT HAPPENING (but should be): The rewrite-fragment-not-document class sits at 4/5 threshold but hasn't triggered — detector may be too narrow if quality gaps exist. More critically, high-volume defects (25 hits each on truncation, blurb, orphan modifier, FAQ coverage) show detectors firing but improvement loop not engaging.
