Assessment at Change: Feature Merge Risk: 🔵 Low This change adds the natural-philosopher agent, its provider configuration, documentation, and regression coverage. The remaining risk is limited to test-style and lint compliance in the new test file; resolve these small issues before merging. Caution Pre-merge checks failedPlease resolve all errors before merging. Addressing warnings is optional.

Reviewer's GuideIntroduces and documents a Natural Philosopher subagent responsible for parent-reviewed, evidence-led GIST step design, with explicit hypothesis, delegation, authority, and hand-off boundaries; configures it for all supported providers and adds regression tests for its deployment and load-bearing prompt contract.

unchanged.

Use lists rather than tuples for both `pytest.mark.parametrize` argvalues collections, matching the convention used throughout the existing suite, and give every assertion an explanatory failure message describing the contract it pins. Document `natural-philosopher` in the developers' guide subagent manifest section: add it to the managed-subagent enumeration, correct the now-stale claim that only the journeyman receives Firecrawl and DeepWiki, and list `tests/test_natural_philosopher.py` among the suites consuming the loader.

Add Codex `nickname_candidates` for `natural-philosopher`, drawn from the natural philosophers who established evidence-led inquiry (Ibn al-Haytham, Boyle, Faraday, Maxwell, and others). This matches the themed pools the other Codex roles carry: dragons for wyvern, essayists for scribe, alchemists for alchemist, and engineers and scientists for scrutineer. No name repeats across pools. Pin the pool in the Codex contract test, following the alchemist and scrutineer tests, and note the theme in ADR 004's provider section.

Give journeyman a pool of civil engineers who delivered large works end to end (Telford, Smeaton, Roebling, Bazalgette, and others), and artisan a pool of master craftspeople known for single, bounded, finished pieces (Stradivari, Cellini, Boulle, Chippendale, and others). Both themes echo the roles' remits, and no name repeats across pools. Pin each pool in the deployment-contract tests, following the alchemist and scrutineer precedent. Follow ab54adb, which retuned natural-philosopher's Codex provider to `gpt-5.6-sol` at medium reasoning effort, by updating the test and ADR 004 that pinned the previous Terra/high configuration.

Add a state diagram to the users' guide tracing one hypothesis from `untested`, through its verdict and decision gate, to the status the report returns. The prose already described verdicts, gates, and statuses separately; the diagram shows how they connect, and makes it visible that a verdict describes a single hypothesis whereas a status describes the whole report. This is the repository's first Mermaid diagram, so it establishes the accessibility pattern: `accTitle` and `accDescr` carry the diagram into the rendered SVG's title and description for assistive technology, and a visible caption follows the figure for readers whose renderer does not support Mermaid.

Route the `stop` gate to `ready-for-review`. The manifest lists "proceed, revise, defer, or stop recommendations" as decision-gate content of the Step Design Report, so a stop is a recommendation the parent weighs, not a halt. Leaving it terminal implied the role could abandon an assignment without reporting, which no part of its contract permits. Give `not_falsified` and `ready_for_review` display labels, so the rendered nodes read `not-falsified` and `ready-for-review` to match the verdict and status strings the role actually emits. The underscored forms remain as Mermaid identifiers only. Match the accessible description to the corrected diagram. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
