+# Phase 9 — Validation Strategy
+
+> Per-phase validation contract for feedback sampling during execution.
+

+
+## Test Infrastructure
+
+| Property | Value |
+|----------|-------|
+| **Framework** | go test |
+| **Config file** | none — standard Go test runner |
+| **Quick run command** | `go test ./synth/... ./config/...` |
+| **Full suite command** | `go test ./...` |
+| **Estimated runtime** | ~5 seconds |
+
+---
+
+## Sampling Rate
+
+- **After every task commit:** Run `go test ./synth/... ./config/...`
+- **After every plan wave:** Run `go test ./...`
+- **Before `/gsd:verify-work`:** Full suite must be green
+- **Max feedback latency:** 5 seconds
+
+---

+
+## Wave 0 Requirements
+
+- [ ] `synth/bank_test.go` — TestIntervalConstraint: verify all within-family pairs have ratio >= 1.122
+- [ ] `synth/bank_test.go` — TestGroupFieldPopulated: verify all ClassFreqConfigs entries have non-empty Group
+- [ ] Update `TestHarmonicsNonEmpty` to accept >= 1 harmonic (for WaveformSine entries)
+
+*Existing infrastructure covers most phase requirements. Wave 0 adds targeted assertions for new constraints.*
+
+---
+
+## Manual-Only Verifications
+
+| Behavior | Requirement | Why Manual | Test Instructions |
+|----------|-------------|------------|-------------------|
+| Frequency table documented in planning doc | FREQ-01 | Documentation artifact | Inspect 09-RESEARCH.md or code comment for complete Hz/waveform/group table |
+
+---
+
+## Validation Sign-Off
+
+- [ ] All tasks have `<automated>` verify or Wave 0 dependencies
+- [ ] Sampling continuity: no 3 consecutive tasks without automated verify
+- [ ] Wave 0 covers all MISSING references
+- [ ] No watch-mode flags
+- [ ] Feedback latency < 5s
+- [ ] `nyquist_compliant: true` set in frontmatter
