Two gaps in code-tidying:batch-simplify (0.23.2), both found in the hygiene sweep of melodic-software/.github#153.
1. The preferred simplifier agent never resolves. skills/batch-simplify/SKILL.md:184 (and the matching line in context/repo-mode.md, "Execution and spawn contract") says to use subagent_type: "pr-review-toolkit:code-simplifier" when that plugin is installed, else general-purpose. On a machine with the official marketplace installed, the available agent is code-simplifier:code-simplifier (plugin code-simplifier, agents/code-simplifier.md), and pr-review-toolkit is not installed. The rule never matches, so every sweep falls back to general-purpose. Fix: list code-simplifier:code-simplifier in the ladder, or check for any installed agent named code-simplifier.
2. No model tier for the spawned agents. Repo mode makes a refutation verifier mandatory for each group, but neither file says which model the simplifiers and verifiers should run on. In this sweep the orchestrator first planned a cheaper tier for both, and the user had to correct it. On Opus, the group-2 verifier then caught a real behavior change in the simplifier's diff. Fix: say that refutation verifiers keep the parent session's model (they are the judgment stage), and that simplifiers default to it unless the sweep is wide.
