Purpose: Verify that implementation is complete, correct, and meets all acceptance criteria
Type: Implementation Verification
Created: 2025-02-17
Feature: F15 Speculative Router
Last Updated: 2025-02-17
NOTE: F15 was implemented as part of Phase 2.5 and merged in PR #178. This is a retrospective verification of existing code — TDD history items are marked [-] (N/A) since the spec was written after the implementation.
