# Reality Check

Compare an explicit claim with observable evidence. Cite every confirmed or
missing behavior with a file, command result, or artifact. Separate:

- confirmed behavior;
- concrete gap;
- incomplete evidence;
- changed assumptions.

Return the report to the caller. Plan may use concrete gaps to refine the
existing bead or caller intent. Reality Check does not create work, schedule,
claim, implement, validate, retry, or deliver.
