Rank is a permission, not a compliment — and none has been granted yet. Until one is, work at every rung is approved by you or a peer reviewer; a grant comes only after clean reviews and captured lessons.

Recorded in the UX guide: this product is something you review, not something you keep up with. Shapes scroll, density, and notification behavior.

Returned Revise. Three blocking state issues; assigned the fixes back to Julius rather than redesigning around them.
