+# Phase 10.2 — Validation Strategy
+
+## Test Infrastructure
+
+| Property | Value |
+|----------|-------|
+| **Framework** | Go test, shell fail-closed gate |
+| **Config file** | `go.mod`, `go.work`, `scripts/check-phase10.2.sh` |
+| **Quick run command** | `scripts/check-phase10.2.sh --self-test` |
+| **Full suite command** | `scripts/check-phase10.2.sh --all` |
+| **Estimated runtime** | ~30 seconds with warm caches |
+
+## Sampling Rate
+
+- **After migration changes:** Run `go vet ./... && go test ./...` plus explicit nested-module and Fonoteka plugin-module checks.
+- **After documentation/gate changes:** Run `scripts/check-phase10.2.sh --self-test`.
+- **Before phase verification:** `scripts/check-phase10.2.sh --all` must be green.
+- **Max observed feedback latency:** under 60 seconds outside the restricted sandbox.

+## Per-Task Verification Map
+
+| Task ID | Plan | Wave | Requirement | Threat Ref | Secure Behavior | Test Type | Automated Command | File Exists | Status |
+|---------|------|------|-------------|------------|-----------------|-----------|-------------------|-------------|--------|
+| 10.2-01-01 | 01 | 1 | D-01–D-04 | T-10.2-01, T-10.2-02 | Tracer move leaves no shadow root package and all three consumers compile | integration | tracer package/importer test command from Plan 01 | ✅ | ✅ green |
+| 10.2-01-02 | 01 | 1 | D-01–D-06 | T-10.2-01–05 | All packages and path literals use the nested layout without extra modules | hygiene | Plan 01 Task 2 layout/path assertions | ✅ | ✅ green |
+| 10.2-01-03 | 01 | 1 | D-05 | T-10.2-02, T-10.2-03 | Framework, examples, application, and plugin modules compile and test | integration | Plan 01 Task 3 vet/test matrix | ✅ | ✅ green |
+| 10.2-02-01 | 02 | 2 | D-07 | — | Every module has concise code-derived onboarding | contract | `scripts/check-phase10.2.sh --readmes` | ✅ | ✅ green |
+| 10.2-02-02 | 02 | 2 | D-08 | — | Root onboarding contains current run/status/module facts | contract | `scripts/check-phase10.2.sh --status` plus Plan 02 README assertions | ✅ | ✅ green |
+| 10.2-02-03 | 02 | 2 | D-01–D-08 | T-10.2-01–05, T-10.2-SC | Gate refuses layout/import/docs regressions and runs both repositories | integration | `scripts/check-phase10.2.sh --self-test && scripts/check-phase10.2.sh --all` | ✅ | ✅ green |
+
+## Wave 0 Requirements
+
+Existing Go and shell-test infrastructure covers all phase requirements. No Wave 0 additions were needed.
+
+## Manual-Only Verifications
+
+| Behavior | Requirement | Why Manual | Test Instructions |
+|----------|-------------|------------|-------------------|
+| README explanations are concise and useful to a newcomer | D-07, D-08 | Editorial quality is judgment-based; automation verifies presence and required facts | Read root README and a representative sample of module READMEs against current exported APIs |
+
+## Validation Audit 2026-09-28
+
+| Metric | Count |
+|--------|-------|
+| Gaps found | 0 |
+| Resolved | 0 |
+| Escalated | 0 |
+
+## Validation Sign-Off
+
+- [x] All tasks have automated verification.
+- [x] Sampling continuity has no unverified task sequence.
+- [x] No Wave 0 references are missing.
+- [x] Commands are one-shot; no watch-mode flags are used.
+- [x] Feedback latency is below 60 seconds outside sandbox restrictions.
+- [x] `nyquist_compliant: true` is set.
