Re-anchor the discipline that purely deterministic sub-work — counting, diffing, sorting, transforming, matching, sweeping, arithmetic — gets a script that runs and returns real output, and the model reasons only afterward over that output — then audit the work in flight for transforms executed by hand and re-derive them from a script's result. Use when: 'script the deterministic work', 'you should have scripted that', 'don't eyeball that', 'you counted that by hand', 'compute that, don't estimate', 'diff it with a tool', 'stop hand-tallying', 'run it instead of guessing', or at conversation start on count-, diff-, or transform-heavy work. Not for authoring a requested script or migration ('script it' as a work order is script-writing, not this corrector), and not for a first-turn count/diff/transform work order ('diff these files', 'count the routes', 'convert all of these') — doing that task with a tool is just doing the task; this corrector fires on drift, mid-flight or retrospective, or as posture at the start of transform-heavy work.
