## 2. Mode × Check Matrix

| Check | `self-check` | `review` | `gate` | `polish` |
|-------|:------------:|:--------:|:------:|:--------:|
| format | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
| grammar | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |
| logic | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ |
| sentences | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ |
| deai | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |
| bib | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
| figures | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |

| checklist | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ | ❌ |
| consistency (+ZH) | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
| gbt7714 (+ZH) | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |

> **Note**: `polish` mode runs `logic` + `sentences` as a fast precheck, then dispatches to Critic agent.
