## Result

R9-E completed cleanly with `prompt-language ci` exit 0 and the external oracle passed 11/11. The run used `review grounded-by "node verify.cjs" max 3` instead of the R1 retry block, and the final completion gate was the oracle itself.

The review loop repaired through three observed oracle states: initial syntax failure at 4/11, then 8/11 with record-count and empty-field failures, then 11/11.

## Timeout Controls

- Outer orchestration command timeout: 3600 seconds.
- Aider turn timeout: `PROMPT_LANGUAGE_AIDER_TIMEOUT_MS=600000` (10 minutes).
- In-flow oracle capture timeout: `run: node verify.cjs > review-output.txt 2>&1 [timeout 60]`.
- `review max 3` bounded the repair loop to three review rounds.

## Local Inference

`ollama ps` samples showed `qwen3:8b` at 100% GPU during active inference. The first sample was empty because the model had been stopped before the run to avoid stale runner state.

## Notes

Earlier R9 variants were excluded: v1/v2 hit PLR-007 Ollama TCP reset failures, and v3 reached 11/11 but was blocked by the known `file_exists` gate cwd bug. V4 removes the redundant `file_exists` gate because `verify.cjs` already asserts `csv2json.js` existence.
