The PR description states that the removed pattern was /^acceptance$/i (with anchors), but the actual removed pattern shown in the diff and code history is /acceptance/i (without anchors). The pattern without anchors is actually MORE overly broad than the description suggests, since it matches "acceptance" anywhere in the heading text, not just as an exact match. While the fix is correct, the PR description should be updated to accurately reflect which pattern was removed.

P2 Badge Match plain Acceptance headings in cascade guard

Dropping the broad acceptance pattern also removes detection of the supported Acceptance heading alias, so isAcceptanceHeading no longer suppresses cascade in sections titled ## Acceptance. Since section parsing still accepts Acceptance (issue_scope_parser.js aliases), this mismatch allows parent-to-child auto-checking inside acceptance criteria for that heading style, which can incorrectly reduce unchecked counts and let completion logic advance too early.

P1 Badge Do not mark fix-verification runs as verified

This change now treats reason === 'fix-verification-gaps' as a verification attempt and sets verification.status to done on any successful run, but that run is not guaranteed to be an acceptance verification pass (the routing logic still maps fix-* reasons to fix_ci mode in keepalive_prompt_routing.js). Because evaluateKeepaliveLoop stops when verificationDone is true, a successful fixer run can prematurely end the loop without a fresh verifier pass, leaving acceptance gaps unverified.
