 "how_to_use": [
  "Download the agent pack and add it to Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini. Use one that can read files. The agent will not run without the closing cash workflow (reconcile-seller-closing-cash) and the fee checker (adviser-fee-tier-checker), so add both from the pack too.",
  "Say if this is a first run. If not, attach your last approved review and paste its record.",
  "Attach the changed documents and the figures above. State the closing date, the currency and the scale once.",
  "Read \"Changed since last review\" first. Check each change against its source document.",
  "Read the double count tests. Each says pass, or names the line that fails. Fix that line and run it again.",
  "Fill every MISSING line before anyone acts. This agent pays nothing and sends nothing. For a workbook, use an AI that can build spreadsheets. In plain chat you get the same tables as text."
 ],
 "checks": [
  "Working-capital amounts already paid and actual escrow disbursements appear once; final settlement signs and payer are explicit. Never overwrite an accepted baseline with an unapproved scenario; record which branch ran or was skipped.",
  "Trace each material input to its source, date, currency, scale, sign and reporting period. Retain unresolved MISSING: lines.",
  "Keep hardcoded inputs separate from live formulas. Inspect changed inputs, actual recalculation, exported formulas and saved-file reopening."
