Location: .agents/agents/document-auditor.md, the paragraph that sorts passages into kinds, as the fix for #83 leaves it.

Evidence: three kinds now outrank each other in a loop. Noise outranks a duplicate told to another reader ("where they are not noise"), that duplicate outranks misplaced ("rather than misplaced"), and misplaced outranks noise ("misplaced rather than noise").

Scenario: a late paragraph that lists the files of a folder and contradicts the README fails a noise rule, comes after its reader needs it, and contradicts a home written for another reader. One audit reads "not noise" by the noise rules, so the passage is no duplicate and, being misplaced, is moved with its contradiction kept; another reads "misplaced rather than noise" as making it not noise, so it is a duplicate that is corrected and moved. The kinds and edits differ, which #83 set out to prevent.

Smallest fix: on the misplaced sentence only, "is misplaced, rather than noise for that alone, and its edit moves it", which gives one order: same-reader duplicate, noise, other-reader duplicate, misplaced, rule finding. It also settles a passage that is both noise and late, which the brief already labelled misplaced before #83.

Seen at: the fix/auditor-kinds branch for #83, whose review rounds the user capped.
