 Snapshot script results:
 - Total spec IDs in `docs/spec`: `422`

-- IDs without direct test trace references: `102`
+- IDs with direct test trace references: `361`
+- IDs without direct test trace references: `61`
+- Non-deferred IDs without direct test trace references: `23`
 
 Largest uncovered buckets:
 - `SPEC-15`: 38 IDs (documented deferred lean-REPL scope)
-- `SPEC-14`: 17 IDs
-- `SPEC-17`: 12 IDs (mostly covered by Go tests rather than Python trace tags)
-- `SPEC-13`: 10 IDs
+- non-deferred residual buckets: `SPEC-00/01/02/03/04/08/09/12`
 
 Interpretation:
 - Core system behavior is empirically green end-to-end.
-- Remaining traceability work is primarily explicit trace-tag coverage/documentation alignment rather than failing behavior.
+- Prioritized non-deferred traceability gaps in SPEC-13/14/16/17 are now explicitly tagged and covered.
+- Remaining non-deferred traceability work is in earlier baseline specs (00/01/02/03/04/08/09/12).
 
 ## Remaining Follow-Up Work (Tracked Separately)
 
-1. Add a repo-level `make check` target or align AGENTS defaults to existing gate commands.
-2. Expand explicit test trace tags for non-deferred uncovered IDs in SPEC-13/14/16/17.
-3. Add a time-bounded benchmark execution mode for CI/sandbox reliability (`tests/benchmarks` can be long-running in restricted environments).
+1. Expand explicit trace coverage for residual non-deferred IDs in SPEC-00/01/02/03/04/08/09/12 (`23` IDs remaining).
+2. Keep `make benchmark-bounded` as the default benchmark path in constrained environments and capture longitudinal perf baselines.
