claim (unverified): **Done.** 

The defect was in `src/internals/helpers.ts` at the `isObject` function (line 16). It had an inverted comparison:

```typescript
typeof value !== 'object'   // BUG: returns true for primitives
```

When the pattern was a primitive (string, symbol, etc.), `isObject` incorrectly returned `true`, causing `matchPattern` to enter the object branch and call `Reflect.ownKeys(pattern)` on a non-object value — throwing the TypeError seen in otherwise.test.ts and cascading through dozens of other tests. Fixed by changing `!==` to `===`. All 48 test suites (453 tests) now pass.

step 10: calling local:qwen3.6:35b-a3b
claim (unverified): The defect has been fixed and all tests pass. Here's the summary:

**Defect found:** In `src/internals/helpers.ts`, the `isObject` helper function had an inverted type guard predicate:
```typescript
// BUG (original): returns true for NON-objects
export const isObject = (value: unknown): value is Object =>
  Boolean(value && typeof value !== 'object');
```

**Fix applied:** Changed `!== 'object'` to `=== 'object'`:
```typescript
// FIXED: returns true for objects
export const isObject = (value: unknown): value is Object =>
  Boolean(value && typeof value === 'object');
```

This function is used throughout the pattern-matching logic (e.g., in `matchPattern` and `getSelectionKeys`) to determine whether a pattern or value should be treated as an object. The inverted predicate caused 171 tests across 32 test suites to fail because primitive values were incorrectly treated as objects and vice versa.

**Test results:** All 48 test suites (453 tests) now pass.

step 11: calling local:qwen3.6:35b-a3b
claim (unverified): **Summary:**

The defect was a single-character typo in `src/internals/helpers.ts` line 13:

```diff
-Boolean(value && typeof value !== 'object');
+Boolean(value && typeof value === 'object');
```

The function `isObject` was checking `!== 'object'` (is **not** object) instead of `=== 'object'` (is object). This inverted type guard caused all object pattern matching to fail silently, cascading into 32 failed test suites and 171 failed tests. The fix — changing `!==` to `===` — resolved everything: all 48 test suites and 453 tests now pass.
