Observed

Implementation 2 (dispatches 16-26) returned implementation_complete after only StepResult#summary of seven tasks; the orchestrator rejected it and opened implementation 3 (dispatches 27-86), which landed the other six tasks but hit dispatch_cap:60 escalation on the final increment's suite-check (suite green, only contract-auditor and behavior-verifier remained).

Budget Consumers

Two flaky suite-check reds (AutocorrectPrepassTest trailing-whitespace race, PreToolUseHookTest getcwd race)
Three contract-auditor fail loops
Two test-reviewer rejections
Reviewers diffing against HEAD seeing prior increments' production edits until the orchestrator committed each increment

Candidates

Behavior-verifier must check every ticket task before pass
Dispatch cap per ticket should scale with task count or reset per verified increment
Per-increment auto-commit so reviewers see test-only diffs

Brief reads every fact from the Implementation aggregate; project config binds at open (was: brief ignores target) #534
