type:scanner
Failure pattern scanning and risk assessment for WinDAGs DAGs. Runs after decomposition but before execution. Performs a lightweight scan on EVERY DAG (BC-PLAN-004), escalating to deep analysis when recognition confidence is low or known failure patterns are found. Activate on "premortem", "failure scan", "risk assessment", "DAG validation", "timing analysis", "failure patterns", "pre-execution check". NOT for post-execution learning (use windags-curator), retrospective analysis (use windags-looking-back), or DAG construction (use windags-architect).
