+## Success Criteria
+
+A passing e2e run means **100% of tests pass with zero failures**. There is no "close enough" — if any test fails, the run has failed and the failures must be investigated and fixed. Do not dismiss failures as pre-existing or infrastructure-related without verifying on main and fixing them.
