Research direction

Start with the §9 severity rules and the nestjs eval, including expected.md; the issue identifies the nested DTO and mass-assignment findings to compare. Update the example so data-shape gaps grade should while access or money gaps grade must, then run the eval three times and confirm those grades each time.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

bug eval

What

In a v0.2.0 re-run the nestjs review graded the unvalidated nested DTO as must; expected.md grades it should, because it corrupts stored data but grants no access.

Why

Grade inflation makes musts less trustworthy and blocks merges that only need a follow-up.

Acceptance criteria

  • The §9 severity rules give an example that separates data-shape gaps (should) from access or money gaps (must).
  • The nestjs eval grades the nested DTO finding should in three consecutive runs, and the mass-assignment finding stays must.
