# Performance Check - Chapter 12

Trigger: quality gate WATCH `ruleset-three-part-cadence` x2.

## Evidence

- Line 37: "sat, though, and pulled..."
- Line 107: "the formula, the coats, the slop sink..."

## Criterion Verdicts

- Cadence used for applause/keynote effect: PASS. Both are procedural action lists, not rhetorical crescendo.
- Three-part rhythm accumulates into prose tic: PASS WITH WATCH. Only two instances, and both are tied to objects/actions.
- Ending performs a thesis: WATCH. Final note is strong, but object-bound; Plain Translation should test it.

## Verdict

PASS. No repair ordered now.
