+**/gsd-review no longer down-weights plan-grounded reviews for a citation shape the prompt made impossible** — each plan in the review prompt now carries a repo-relative #### path header, and the budget copies are named after their source plan id instead of a bare index, so source-grounded lanes can cite plans in a form the consensus step resolves.

 ### Plans to Review
-{all PLAN.md contents}
+For each `*-PLAN.md` in the phase directory, in glob order, include its full content preceded by a `####` header carrying the plan's **repo-relative path** (e.g. `#### .planning/phases/<phase>/<NN>-PLAN.md`). The path header is the citable anchor for findings about the plan itself — cite it as `<repo-relative plan path>:<line>` (name the heading in prose beside the citation if it helps the reader); reserve `path:line` for repo files the plan references.
