Write the next autonomous Ralph task as a single Markdown document.

Requirements:

- Output only the Markdown task document, with no preface and no code fences.
- This task is for Ralph swarm automation, not a human chat response.
- The task must be actionable, specific, and based only on repository truth and run artifacts.
- The task must continue the current line of development.
- Prefer runtime validation, exact evidence, and concrete acceptance criteria.
- If the previous run failed, focus on the highest-signal blockers first.
- If the previous run succeeded, focus on the next most valuable improvement.
- Keep the task self-contained so it can be submitted directly into the inbox.
