# Chapter 12 Genericization Repair Memo

Source audit: `output/critiques/claude/chapter_12.genericization.md`

Verdict: `REGRESSED (4)`

Disposition: accepted all four orders.

Repairs made:

1. Restored the Coney Island kite particulars from the raw Claude draft: cousin-made garbage-bag tail and windless afternoon.
2. Restored the Riccis' cat as the cause of the bent screen in Theo's airshaft memory.
3. Restored June's `like the paint is deciding` image in the dead-salmon primer stage.
4. Cut the orphaned `I know.` after the functional `Seven?` / `Seven.` exchange.

Mechanical check after repair:

`bash scripts/quality_gate.sh output/chapters/chapter_12.md`

Result: PASS, open=0, allowlisted=0, watch=53.

Verification:

No additional Claude verification round planned. The four specificity regressions were direct restorations from the raw Claude draft or a deletion of an orphaned line, and will be covered in the synthesis memo.
