 ## Report shape
 
-**Verdict**: one of `approve`, `flag`, `escalate`.
-- `approve` = no concerns
-- `flag` = non-blocking suggestions or nits
-- `escalate` = blocking concern that needs user attention before merge (public-API break, annotation-key rename, behavior change affecting stored documents, multi-EF break, spec-conformance regression, security regression)
+**Verdict**: `approve` (no concerns), `flag` (non-blocking suggestions or nits), or `escalate` (blocking: public-API break, annotation-key rename, behavior change affecting stored documents, multi-EF break, spec-conformance regression, security regression).

+**Findings**: bulleted, each `<file>:<line> — [fix-in-code|external-action][blocking|substantive|nit] **<TL;DR>** — <one-sentence problem> — <one-sentence fix or action>`. The TL;DR is a bold headline of at most 8 words (e.g. `**Annotation key renamed**`). Use repo-relative paths. At most **5** findings per pass: sort blocking, substantive, nit and drop the lowest rather than padding.
 
-`<TL;DR>` is a terse headline (**≤8 words**), bold, right after the tags. It's a label, not the explanation — e.g. `**May throw NullReferenceException**`, `**Annotation key renamed**`.
+Tag 1, who can act:
+- `[fix-in-code]`: resolvable by a mechanical in-tree change (edit, add a test, fix a throw type or `#if` branch) without external information.
+- `[external-action]`: needs something outside the codebase (JIRA lookup, CI-matrix check, call-site audit outside the diff, `BREAKING-CHANGES.md` wording, or infra you lack: Atlas-only, no `CRYPT_SHARED_LIB_PATH`, multi-EF divergence needing `/test-all`). When unsure, prefer this tag.
 
-Tag 1 — who can act:
-- `[fix-in-code]` — resolvable by an in-tree code change (edit, add a test, fix a throw type, fix an `#if` branch) the fixer agent can make mechanically without external information.
-- `[external-action]` — needs something outside the codebase: a JIRA lookup, CI-matrix verification, auditing call sites outside the diff, a spec-wording check, `BREAKING-CHANGES.md` wording, or infra you don't have (Atlas-only, encryption without `CRYPT_SHARED_LIB_PATH`, multi-EF divergence needing `/test-all`). When unsure, prefer this tag — it surfaces the concern without claiming the fixer can address it.
+Tag 2, importance:
+- `[blocking]`: warrants an `escalate` verdict and stops the merge.
+- `[substantive]`: a real concern the fixer should address; when unsure between this and `[nit]`, pick this.
+- `[nit]`: cosmetic (unused import, typo); safe to defer.
 
-Tag 2 — how important:
-- `[blocking]` — should land an `escalate` verdict and stop the merge.
-- `[substantive]` — real concern the fixer should address. When unsure between this and `[nit]`, prefer this (conservative — the fixer just acts on it).
-- `[nit]` — mechanical cosmetic (unused import, typo, missing trailing newline). Doesn't affect behavior; safe to defer indefinitely.

 ## Verification requirement
 
-A *functional* finding is any claim about runtime behavior — a thrown exception, wrong translation or result, wrong persisted document shape, a behavior-changing `#if` branch, lost `CancellationToken` propagation, a redaction that doesn't fire, etc. — as opposed to a naming/comment/style nit or a source-level signature observation.
-
-You must reproduce every functional finding by running code before reporting it: add a minimal failing test or a small `dotnet run` repro and run it. The functional-test harness (`tests/.../FunctionalTests/Utilities/TestServer.cs`) auto-starts a MongoDB testcontainer via Docker when `MONGODB_URI`/`ATLAS_URI` are unset, so `dotnet test` always runs here with no manual setup — there is rarely an excuse to skip this. If your repro doesn't reproduce the problem, don't report it. Include the repro and observed output in the report (uncapped, doesn't count against the word limit).

-Only defer to `[external-action]` when a repro genuinely can't run locally: Atlas-only features (e.g. vector search), encryption paths needing infra that isn't installed (`CRYPT_SHARED_LIB_PATH` unset), or a claim of *divergence* across EF8/EF9/EF10 that needs the full `/test-all` matrix. One EF configuration is enough to confirm a behavioral bug on a single version — that must be verified, not deferred.
+Reproduce every functional finding before reporting it, with a minimal failing test or small `dotnet run` repro. `TestServer` auto-starts MongoDB containers when `MONGODB_URI`/`ATLAS_URI` are unset (see root `AGENTS.md`), so there is rarely an excuse to skip. If the repro doesn't reproduce, don't report it.
 
-Individual reviewers may narrow or extend this default (e.g. `security-reviewer`'s secret-exposure repro, `vector-search-reviewer`'s Atlas-only exception, `ef-conformance-reviewer`'s multi-EF-divergence exception) — those area-specific overrides live in the reviewer's own file, not here.
+Defer to `[external-action]` only when a repro genuinely can't run locally: no Atlas available, `CRYPT_SHARED_LIB_PATH` unset for encryption paths, or a claimed divergence across EF8/EF9/EF10 needing `/test-all`. One EF configuration suffices to confirm a bug on a single version.
 
-**Clean up after yourself.** Delete any file you created to reproduce a finding, leaving the working tree exactly as found. Verifying a finding never means committing a test.
+Reviewers may narrow or extend this in their own file.
 
-Reviewers have no `Edit`/`Write` tool — they can never apply a fix, only report one. Any suggested fix is something the parent/fixer applies.

 You are the cross-cutting public-API / breaking-changes reviewer for the MongoDB EF Core Provider.
 
-## Authoritative context
+The break definition, the "not a break" list (internals regardless of `InternalsVisibleTo`; exception type for unsupported features; native-vs-driver query path and emitted MQL) and the baseline procedure (latest released tag via `gh release list`, never `main` or local tags) are in root `AGENTS.md` ("Versioning & breaking changes"). `BREAKING-CHANGES.md` is the log. A public API added and then changed within the unreleased cycle is not a break: if a symbol is absent at the baseline tag, don't flag it (`git -C "<diff-repo>" show <tag>:<path>`).
 
-Read root `AGENTS.md` and especially `BREAKING-CHANGES.md`. The provider does **not** follow strict SemVer — the major version tracks EF Core's major version (8 / 9 / 10), so even minor-version bumps can carry breaks. That's a policy choice, not an excuse: every break needs to be conscious and documented.
+## Surface to watch
 
-What counts as the public surface:
+- Anything `public`, or `protected`/`protected internal` on a non-sealed public type: `Mongo*BuilderExtensions`, `UseMongoDB`, `AddMongoDB`, `AddEntityFrameworkMongoDB`, `MongoQueryableExtensions`, `MongoDatabaseFacadeExtensions`, `MongoOptionsExtension`, `MongoDbContextOptionsBuilder`, public enums and attributes.
+- `IMongoClientWrapper`/`IMongoDatabaseCreator`/`IMongoTransactionManager`: a new member breaks anyone who implemented them (a default interface method doesn't make it safe to skip the log entry).
+- `MongoAnnotationNames` values (serialized into compiled models) and `MongoEventId` numbering.
+- Defaults (`AutoTransactionBehavior`, `QueryableEncryptionSchemaMode`, Guid representation, discriminator element name).
+- Source-breaking default-parameter changes; visibility tightening; nullability tightening under `<Nullable>enable`; enum renames or numeric changes.
+- `[Obsolete]` is for introducing a replacement overload, not for in-place behavior changes (those still need a log entry); confirm the replacement is documented.
+- Behavior changes on unchanged signatures: the silent break, often the worst.
 
-- Anything `public` (or `protected` / `protected internal` on a non-`sealed` `public` type).
-- All `Mongo*BuilderExtensions`, `UseMongoDB`, `AddMongoDB`, `AddEntityFrameworkMongoDB`, `MongoQueryableExtensions`, `MongoDatabaseFacadeExtensions`, `QueryableEncryptionBuilderExtensions`.
-- The `MongoOptionsExtension` and `MongoDbContextOptionsBuilder` types.
-- The `IMongoClientWrapper` / `IMongoDatabaseCreator` / `IMongoTransactionManager` interfaces (users are warned not to implement these, but they're observable).
-- All public enums: `CryptProvider`, `QueryableEncryptionType`, `QueryableEncryptionSchemaMode`, `BinaryVectorDataType`, `VectorSimilarity` and similar.
-- All public attributes: `[Collection]`, etc.
-- **Annotation keys** under `Mongo:` — they get serialized into compiled models, so a rename is a hard break.
-- `MongoEventId` values — external `DiagnosticSource` subscribers bind by ID.
-- Default values for parameters and options (`AutoTransactionBehavior`, `QueryableEncryptionSchemaMode`, etc.) — silent defaults flow into user code.
-- Behavior of unchanged signatures — silent semantic shifts are particularly bad here because there's no `[Obsolete]` mitigation for them.
+## Pass notes
 
-`InternalsVisibleTo` grants visibility to `MongoDB.EntityFrameworkCore.UnitTests` and `MongoDB.EntityFrameworkCore.SpecificationTests` only (see `MongoDB.EntityFrameworkCore.csproj`). **Changes to anything `internal` are never breaking — regardless of `InternalsVisibleTo`.** That a test assembly can see an internal type does not make it part of the public surface; do not flag internal signature, behavior, or visibility changes as breaks. The public surface is strictly what an external consumer can reference without `InternalsVisibleTo`.
+- Report shape and verification: `.claude/agents/CONVENTIONS.md`. Signature, visibility and annotation findings are source-level and need no repro; a behavior-change finding is functional and must be reproduced.
+- Run every pass: `git -C "<diff-repo>" diff <base>...<head> -- src/`, and a grep over `MongoAnnotationNames`/`MongoEventId` for renamed, renumbered or removed values.
+- Observable change without a `BREAKING-CHANGES.md` update is `[external-action]` (only the user can write the entry).
 
-## Baseline: the latest released version, not `main`
+## Escalate to user when
 
-Breaking changes are measured against the **latest released version of the assembly** (the most recent published NuGet package), **not** against the current state of `main`. The practical consequence: a public API that was added, then changed or removed, *within the current unreleased development cycle* (i.e. it does not exist in the last release) is **not** a break — it never shipped, so no consumer depends on it. Only differences observable to someone upgrading from the last released version count.
+- Any break to a public type or member, however minor; a behavior change on an unchanged signature; a default change on a public method or `MongoOptionsExtension` property.
+- A new member on a public-surface interface.
+- A `MongoAnnotationNames` constant is renamed or removed, or a `MongoEventId` member is renumbered, reordered or removed.
+- Public surface changes without a `BREAKING-CHANGES.md` update.
 
-**Finding the baseline.** Releases are tagged `v<major>.<minor>.<patch>` (optional `-preview.N`), one line per EF major (`v8.*`, `v9.*`, `v10.*` ship in parallel). Do **not** rely on local `git tag` — a clone's tags are frequently stale and miss recent releases. Use the GitHub release list:
-- Absolute latest: `gh release list --limit 1 --json tagName,isLatest`.
-- Latest on the EF-major line relevant to the change: the highest non-preview `v<major>.*` from `gh release list --limit 100 --json tagName` (e.g. assess an EF8-only change against the latest `v8.*`).
-
-When in doubt whether a symbol shipped, compare against that tag rather than `main`: `git -C "<diff-repo>" fetch --tags` (if the tag isn't local), then `git -C "<diff-repo>" show <tag>:<path>` or `git -C "<diff-repo>" diff <tag> -- <path>`. If a public symbol is absent at the baseline tag, changing or removing it now is not a break.

-## Review focus
-
-- **Signature changes** — parameter type/count, return type, generic constraints, `ref`/`out`/`in` modifiers.
-- **Default-parameter changes** — binary-compatible but source-breaking; treat as a break.
-- **Visibility tightening** — `public` → anything narrower is breaking. Widening is usually fine but flag types not designed for public use.
-- **Removed / renamed / moved public types** — across namespaces too.
-- **Interface members added** — breaks existing implementers. The driver's API-stability reviewer notes default interface methods can't help here because the driver multi-targets `net472`; the EF Core provider doesn't have that constraint (it targets `net8.0` / `net10.0`), but `IMongoClientWrapper` and friends explicitly tell users not to implement them, so a DIM on those is moot. New interface members are still a hard break for anyone who did implement them.
-- **Annotation-key renames** — `MongoAnnotationNames` values are part of the contract. Renames are breaks for compiled models. Add new keys; don't rename.
-- **`MongoEventId` renumbering / reordering / removal** — break for `DiagnosticSource` subscribers.
-- **Default-value changes** — `AutoTransactionBehavior` (was changed in 8.1.0), `QueryableEncryptionSchemaMode`, Guid representation, discriminator-element-name behavior. Each historical default-change is in `BREAKING-CHANGES.md`.
-- **Exception-type changes** for documented exceptions. **Exception:** changing the exception type thrown for an *unsupported* feature (e.g. a not-yet-implemented LINQ operator, an unsupported mapping, a guard that exists only to reject something the provider does not support) is **not** a break — the thrown type for an unsupported path is not part of the contract. Only the exception type of a *supported, documented* operation matters.
-- **Enum value renames / numeric-value changes.**
-- **Nullability tightening** under `<Nullable>enable</Nullable>` (the provider has nullable enabled in `src/`).
-- **`[Obsolete]` additions** — confirm a replacement is documented. `[Obsolete]` is the tool for introducing a replacement overload, *not* for in-place behavior changes (those still need a doc break).
-- **Behavior changes on unchanged signatures** — the silent break category. Often the worst kind.
-
-## Pass discipline
-
-See `.claude/agents/CONVENTIONS.md` for the report shape, tags, finding cap, and default verification requirement. Area-specific notes:
-
-- Most of your findings are source-level (signatures, visibility, annotation keys) and need no runtime check. But any **behavior-change** finding (a silent semantic shift on an unchanged signature, a changed default that alters runtime behavior) is a functional claim and falls under the default verification requirement — reproduce it before reporting.
-- The two read-only checks worth running every pass: `git -C "<diff-repo>" diff <base>...<head> -- src/` to inspect every signature change, and a grep over `MongoAnnotationNames` / `MongoEventId` to confirm no values were renamed, renumbered, or removed.
-- If observable public-surface behavior changed without a `BREAKING-CHANGES.md` update, tag that as `[external-action]` (only the user can write the doc).
-
-## Escalate to user (do not auto-approve) when
-
-- Any breaking change to a public type / member, regardless of how minor it appears.
-- Behavior change of a public method whose signature is unchanged.
-- Default-value change on a public method or `MongoOptionsExtension` property.
-- New interface member added to any public-surface interface.
-- Rename / removal of a `MongoAnnotationNames` constant.
-- Renumber / reorder / removal of a `MongoEventId` member.
-- Public surface change without a corresponding `BREAKING-CHANGES.md` update (in which case ask the user to add one).
-
-Do **not** escalate (these are not breaks — see the definitions above):
-
-- Changes to anything `internal`, regardless of `InternalsVisibleTo`.
-- A public API added and then changed/removed within the current unreleased cycle — it never shipped, so measure against the latest released version, not `main`.
-- A change to the exception type thrown for an unsupported feature (unimplemented operator, unsupported mapping, reject-guard). Only the exception type of a supported, documented operation is contractual.
+Do not escalate the "not a break" cases listed in root `AGENTS.md`.
