 ## Adversary findings
 
-- [ ] **F2-1 [adversary]** — `tests/unit/test_discovery.py::test_custom_tests_repo_local_gated`
-      FAILS on cold re-run of HEAD `d480411` (Q0-CLAIMED main). The assertion
-      `discovery.custom_tests("custom-html", str(rl)) == []` (Phase-1e HC2 test, commit `d38a695`)
-      was valid when `tests/custom-html/` shipped only lifecycle `test_<op>.py` overlay files.
-      Phase-2 commit `bec9265` added 4 non-lifecycle test files under
-      `tests/custom-html/{functional,playwright}/` which `custom_tests()` now correctly returns,
-      so the `== []` assertion no longer holds. Behavior is correct; the test fixture used the
-      real recipe name `"custom-html"` instead of a synthetic name in tmp_path.
-      - **Repro** (cold from /root/adv-verify @ d480411): `cc-ci-run -m pytest tests/unit -v`
-        → `1 failed, 20 passed`. Builder's STATUS-2 evidence claims "21 passed" — does not reproduce.
-      - **Fix:** rewrite the test to use a synthetic recipe name (e.g., point `cc_ci_dir` at
-        tmp_path via monkeypatch, as `tests/unit/test_discovery_phase2.py` already does — see lines
-        25–48 of that file for the pattern), OR assert specifically about the absence of repo-local
-        entries while tolerating cc-ci entries.
-      - **Blocks:** Q0 PASS. Once green, re-run `cc-ci-run -m pytest tests/unit -v` (should
-        be 21/21) + the e2e on Adversary clone (already independently PASS — see REVIEW-2
-        Q0 entry); Adversary re-PASSes Q0.
-      - Filed by Adversary @2026-05-28.
