Simulate adding the feature the user names — WITHOUT writing a single line of code.
This is a pre-flight check of both the plan and the knowledge layer.

## Phases to walk (score each: smooth / friction / blocked)
1. **Locate** — can MODULE_MAP + FEATURE_MAP/CATALOG identify the target modules
   without crawling? Name them.
2. **Plan** — draft the touch list per layer; note Stability of every file you'd
   change. Any `frozen` or `?` file ⇒ blocked pending human approval.
3. **Verify** — which suites would prove it works; do they exist and are commands
   confirmed?
4. **Knowledge update** — which ai/ files would need updating after the change?

## Output
A friction report in chat (and, if asked, saved to ai/analysis/audit-reports/):
per-phase score with the specific missing knowledge that caused friction, total
estimated context cost, and a go / no-go recommendation. Knowledge gaps found here
are the cheapest bugs you will ever fix — file each as an audit TODO.
