 ### Report sf-internal observations
 
 If during this unit you observe sf-the-tool friction — ambiguous prompts, missing context, misleading instructions, surprising behavior, prompt-quality issues, or improvement ideas — file them via `sf_self_report` before sealing the unit. This is the only way these observations reach forge's backlog and get triaged. Over-reporting is preferred to under-reporting; dedup happens later. Do NOT use this to file bugs in the user's project; only sf-the-tool itself. Do NOT autonomously act on or fix existing backlog entries — your scope is your unit.
