fix(e2e): assert all-through phases via visible sub-headings, not tooltip-colliding text

The Batch E all-through journey used `#results getByText('Attainment 8').first()`,
which matched 14 nodes — mostly hidden MetricTooltip labels — so `.first()`
landed on a visibility:hidden node and `toBeVisible()` failed on staging.

Assert instead on the unique, visible all-through sub-headings
("Primary — KS2 SATs" / "Secondary — GCSEs"), which directly prove each
phase block rendered. Full suite green against staging (17/17).

+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Fix the five promotion-blocking findings from the expert's final staging review: (1) blank all-secondary compare view, (2) report cards dated with pre-Nov-2025 legacy inspection dates, (3) FSM chip benchmarked against the wrong measure, (4) KS4 "national averages" that are dataset means presented as official DfE figures, (5) factually wrong "DfE didn't publish 2021/22" footnote.
+
+**Architecture:** One branch/PR touching all three layers. Pipeline: a new tap field carries the report-card inspection's own date; a new EES stream ingests official KS4 national headlines; a new census-benchmarks mart replaces junk KS2-derived context medians. Backend: serialize the new fields, stop mislabelling computed KS4 means as official. Frontend: fix the phase-detection effect that leaves all-secondary comparisons stuck on an empty "primary" tab, date report cards correctly, drop the FSM→disadvantaged fallback, fix the footnote copy.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Meltano/Singer taps (Python), dbt-postgres, FastAPI/SQLAlchemy/pandas, Next.js app router + Jest, Playwright e2e.
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Never push to `main`; work on branch `fix/compare-final-review-mustfix`, open a PR. Never trigger the "Promote to Production (manual)" workflow — promotion is exclusively the human's call.
+- User-facing behaviour changes must extend the `e2e/` journeys in the same PR (they gate staging fitness and promotability).
+- All user-facing copy on the compare screen comes verbatim from `docs/superpowers/specs/mockups/compare-desktop.html` / `compare-mobile.html` — except where this plan explicitly changes copy to fix a factual error (Task 6); the spec/mockup gets the same wording in the same commit.
+- Benchmark provenance house style: official figures = "England average"; computed figures = "state-school average (computed from our dataset)".
+- A report card must NEVER be displayed with a pre-November-2025 date. Report cards exist only from November 2025.
+- Backend tests: `uv run --with-requirements requirements.txt --with pytest --with "httpx==0.27.0" python -m pytest backend/tests -q` (repo root; there is no local pytest).
+- dbt: `cd pipeline/transform && uv run --with dbt-postgres python -m dbt.cli.main parse --profiles-dir .` (never bare `dbt` — the Fusion binary shadows dbt-postgres).
+- Frontend: `cd nextjs-app && npx tsc --noEmit && npm test` (run tsc un-piped so exit codes are not masked).
+- Do NOT start a local server to test the application (CLAUDE.md).
+- Commits end with the Claude Code `Co-Authored-By` + `Claude-Session` trailers used on this branch's history.
+
+## Root-Cause Evidence (verified 2026-07-16, do not re-derive)
+
+- **Finding 1:** `nextjs-app/components/ComparisonView.tsx:164-176` — the auto-phase effect returns early when `selectedSchools.length === 0` (basket hydrates a beat after mount) and its dep array is only `[comparisonData]`, so it never re-fires; `comparePhase` stays `'primary'`, `activeSchools` is empty, the page renders "No primary schools in your comparison" (a11y snapshot confirmed). No console errors — not a crash.
+- **Finding 2:** In the Ofsted MI CSV (`Management_information_-_state-funded_schools_-_latest_inspections_as_at_31_May_2026.csv`) the report-card grade columns (cols 38–55, "Safeguarding standards", "Inclusion", …) belong to the **latest full inspection** block whose date is col 30 "Inspection start date" (Barclay 138690: `03/02/2026`). The tap's `inspection_date` COLUMN_PRIORITY matches col 60 "Inspection start date of latest OEIF graded inspection" first (the *legacy* date; NULL for Barclay, so stg coalesces to the 2021 *ungraded* date). The rc data is **real Ofsted data, not fabricated** — it is mis-dated. Also `discover_csv_url()` returns `matches[0]` = the oldest (2017) link on the GOV.UK page; staging works only because `mi_url` is set in the environment. Staging raw is stale for at least Watford Grammar 136276 (staging shows rc grades; the current MI file has all rc columns NULL for it) — a fresh extract fixes that via upsert on `(urn, inspection_date)`.
+- **Finding 3:** `nextjs-app/components/compare/CompareCommunity.tsx:36` — `bench?.fsm_pct ?? bench?.disadvantaged_pct` falls back across definitions. `benchmarks.primary.fsm_pct` is null because `compute_benchmarks` (backend/data_loader.py:528) medians the *performance* df, which has no `fsm_pct` (school FSM comes from `census.fsm_pct` = `fact_pupil_characteristics`). `disadvantaged_pct` / `eal_pct` are KS2-only columns, so the "secondary" medians (50.0 / 10.0) are computed over the few all-through schools' KS2 rows — junk.
+- **Finding 4:** `fact_ks4_national_averages.sql` computes unweighted school means (A8 38.94 vs official 46.0; national P8 −0.27, impossible). Official series exists on EES: data-set `1b649e16-01e8-435b-a814-56be2faf9054` ("National characteristics summary data", KS4 performance publication), CSV endpoint same pattern as the KS2 national stream, national level, 2018/19→2024/25, `establishment_type_group = 'All state-funded'`, `breakdown_topic = 'Total'`, `breakdown = 'Total'`. Verified values: 2024/25 A8 46.0, P8 `z` (not published — no KS2 baseline for that cohort), EM 9-5 45.4%, EBacc entry 40.5%. It has **no** `gcse_91_percent` column.
+- **Finding 5:** `ComparisonChart.tsx:245-246` claims "DfE didn't publish school-level figures for 2021/22". False — DfE published school-level KS2 for 2021/22 in Dec 2022; spec §8.1 itself lists loading it as a pipeline task. The honest claim is that the figures aren't in our dataset.

+
+### Task 1: All-secondary comparison renders (phase-detection fix)
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `nextjs-app/components/ComparisonView.tsx:176`
+- Create: `nextjs-app/__tests__/components/ComparisonView.phase.test.tsx`
+- Modify: `e2e/tests/journeys.spec.ts` (add helper + journey after the existing `twoPrimaryUrns` helper / primary compare journey)
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: existing `ComparisonView` props (`initialData`, `initialUrns`, `metrics`, `selectedMetric`), `ComparisonProvider`.
+- Produces: no API changes; the auto-phase effect re-runs when the basket hydrates.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing Jest test**
+
+Create `nextjs-app/__tests__/components/ComparisonView.phase.test.tsx` (mirrors the mock setup of `ComparisonView.refresh.test.tsx`):
+
+```tsx
+/**
+ * Regression: an all-secondary comparison must render the secondary sections.
+ *
+ * The basket hydrates from the URL a beat after mount, so the auto-phase
+ * effect must re-run once selectedSchools arrives — with deps of only
+ * [comparisonData] it fired once against an empty basket, bailed, and the
+ * page stayed on an empty "primary" tab ("No primary schools in your
+ * comparison") even though all schools were secondary.

+});
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run it to verify it fails**
+
+Run: `cd nextjs-app && npx jest __tests__/components/ComparisonView.phase.test.tsx`
+Expected: FAIL — "No primary schools in your comparison" is rendered / "At a glance" never appears.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Fix the effect dependencies**
+
+In `nextjs-app/components/ComparisonView.tsx`, the auto-phase effect currently ends:
+
+```tsx
+  }, [comparisonData]); // eslint-disable-line react-hooks/exhaustive-deps
+```
+
+Change to:
+
+```tsx
+    // selectedSchools is a dep because the basket hydrates after mount: the
+    // first run sees an empty basket and bails, so it must re-fire when the
+    // schools arrive. primarySchools/secondarySchools/metrics/selectedMetric
+    // are intentionally omitted (derived or would cause loops).
+  }, [comparisonData, selectedSchools]); // eslint-disable-line react-hooks/exhaustive-deps
+```
+
+(`phaseLockedByUser` still suppresses re-detection after a manual tab click; re-running with unchanged inputs sets the same state, which React treats as a no-op.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run the new test and the existing suite**
+
+Run: `cd nextjs-app && npx tsc --noEmit && npm test`
+Expected: PASS, including `ComparisonView.refresh.test.tsx` (the refresh regression must stay green).
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Add the e2e secondary journey**
+
+In `e2e/tests/journeys.spec.ts`, add below `twoPrimaryUrns`:
+
+```ts
+async function twoSecondaryUrns(page: Page): Promise<[string, string]> {
+  const res = await page.request.get('/api/schools?search=school&per_page=100');
+  expect(res.ok()).toBeTruthy();
+  const body = await res.json();
+  const urns: string[] = (body.schools ?? [])
+    .filter((s: { phase?: string; attainment_8_score?: number | null }) =>
+      s.phase === 'Secondary' && s.attainment_8_score != null,
+    )
+    .map((s: { urn: number }) => String(s.urn));
+  expect(urns.length).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(2);
+  return [urns[0], urns[1]];
+}
+```
+
+(If `/api/schools` list rows lack `attainment_8_score`, filter on `s.phase === 'Secondary'` only — check the response first.) Then add a journey test next to the primary compare journey:
+
+```ts
+test('comparing two secondary schools renders the secondary sections', async ({ page }) => {
+  const [urn0, urn1] = await twoSecondaryUrns(page);
+
+  await page.goto(`/compare?urns=${urn0},${urn1}`);
+  await expect(page.locator(`a[href*="${urn0}"]`).first()).toBeVisible({ timeout: 15_000 });
+
+  // The parent-first sections must render — this page was completely blank
+  // for all-secondary baskets (expert review must-fix #1).
+  await expect(page.getByRole('heading', { name: 'At a glance' })).toBeVisible();
+  await expect(page.getByRole('heading', { name: 'Ofsted inspection' })).toBeVisible();
+  // A KS4 measure proves the secondary academics variant rendered.
+  await expect(page.getByText(/Attainment 8/i).first()).toBeVisible();
+  await expect(page.getByText(/No primary schools in your comparison/)).toHaveCount(0);
+});
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add nextjs-app/components/ComparisonView.tsx nextjs-app/__tests__/components/ComparisonView.phase.test.tsx e2e/tests/journeys.spec.ts
+git commit -m "fix(compare): render all-secondary comparisons — re-run phase detection after basket hydration"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 2: Report-card inspection date through the pipeline
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `pipeline/plugins/extractors/tap-uk-ofsted/tap_uk_ofsted/tap.py` (COLUMN_PRIORITY, schema, `discover_csv_url`)
+- Modify: `pipeline/transform/models/staging/stg_ofsted_inspections.sql`
+- Modify: `pipeline/transform/models/intermediate/int_ofsted_latest.sql`
+- Modify: `pipeline/transform/models/marts/fact_ofsted_inspection.sql`
+- Modify: `pipeline/transform/models/marts/_marts_schema.yml` (add column doc if other fact_ofsted columns are documented there)
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: MI CSV column `Inspection start date` (the latest **full** inspection = the report-card inspection in the renewed framework; NULL when a school's only inspections are legacy OEIF/ungraded — verified for Watford Grammar).
+- Produces: `marts.fact_ofsted_inspection.rc_inspection_date` (DATE, null unless the row carries report-card grades). Task 3 depends on this exact column name.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add the tap field**
+
+In `tap.py` COLUMN_PRIORITY, after the `rc_sixth_form` entry, add:
+
+```python
+    # Date of the latest FULL inspection — in the renewed framework this is
+    # the report-card inspection's own start date (col "Inspection start
+    # date"), distinct from the legacy OEIF graded/ungraded dates above.
+    "rc_inspection_date": ["Inspection start date"],
+```
+
+and in the stream schema, next to the other rc properties:
+
+```python
+        th.Property("rc_inspection_date", th.StringType),
+```
+
+Note: `inspection_date`'s own priority list also contains `"Inspection start date"` as a lower-priority candidate — that stays; in renewed-framework files the higher-priority OEIF column exists so they map to different columns, and in legacy files both map to the same column but rc grades are absent, and staging nulls `rc_inspection_date` in that case (Step 3).
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Fix `discover_csv_url` to pick the newest file, not `matches[0]`**
+
+The GOV.UK page lists 2017 files first; `matches[0]` is a 2017 CSV. Replace the body of `discover_csv_url()` to date-sort the `latest_inspections_as_at` links, mirroring `discover_independent_csv_url`:
+
+```python
+def discover_csv_url() -> str | None:
+    """Scrape GOV.UK page to find the latest MI CSV download link.
+
+    The page lists a decade of monthly files, oldest first — take the
+    newest 'latest inspections as at <date>' link by parsing its date,
+    never matches[0].
+    """
+    resp = requests.get(GOV_UK_PAGE, timeout=30)
+    resp.raise_for_status()
+    csv_links = re.findall(
+        r'href="(https://assets\.publishing\.service\.gov\.uk/[^"]+\.csv)"',
+        resp.text,
+    )
+
+    months = {
+        'january': 1, 'february': 2, 'march': 3, 'april': 4, 'may': 5, 'june': 6,
+        'july': 7, 'august': 8, 'september': 9, 'october': 10, 'november': 11, 'december': 12,

+        'jul': 7, 'aug': 8, 'sep': 9, 'oct': 10, 'nov': 11, 'dec': 12,
+    }
+    parsed_links = []
+    for link in csv_links:
+        normalized = link.lower().replace('-', '_')
+        if 'latest_inspections_as_at' not in normalized:
+            continue
+        match = re.search(r'as_at_(\d{1,2})_([a-z]+)_(\d{4})', normalized)
+        if match:
+            day, month_str, year = match.groups()
+            month = months.get(month_str)
+            if month:
+                try:
+                    parsed_links.append((datetime(int(year), month, int(day)), link))
+                except ValueError:
+                    continue
+    parsed_links.sort(reverse=True)
+    if parsed_links:
+        return parsed_links[0][1]
+    if csv_links:
+        return csv_links[-1]
+    matches = re.findall(
+        r'href="(https://assets\.publishing\.service\.gov\.uk/[^"]+\.ods)"',
+        resp.text,
+    )
+    return matches[0] if matches else None
+```
+
+(`mi_url` config still wins when set — `self.config.get("mi_url") or discover_csv_url()` is unchanged.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Parse and guard the date in staging**
+
+In `stg_ofsted_inspections.sql`, inside the `renamed` CTE after the `rc_sixth_form` line, add:
+
+```sql
+        -- Start date of the latest FULL inspection (the report-card
+        -- inspection in the renewed framework). Guarded below: only kept
+        -- when the row actually carries report-card grades, because in
+        -- legacy-format files this column is the legacy inspection date.
+        to_date(nullif(trim(rc_inspection_date), 'NULL'), 'DD/MM/YYYY') as rc_inspection_date_raw,
+```
+
+and replace the final select:
+
+```sql
+select
+    *,
+    case
+        when rc_safeguarding_met is not null
+          or rc_inclusion is not null
+          or rc_curriculum_teaching is not null
+          or rc_achievement is not null
+          or rc_attendance_behaviour is not null
+          or rc_personal_development is not null
+          or rc_leadership_governance is not null
+        then rc_inspection_date_raw
+    end as rc_inspection_date
+from renamed
+where inspection_date is not null
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Propagate through int + mart**
+
+Add `rc_inspection_date,` to the explicit column lists of `int_ofsted_latest.sql` and `fact_ofsted_inspection.sql` (after `rc_sixth_form`). Do NOT propagate `rc_inspection_date_raw`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Parse-check dbt**
+
+Run: `cd pipeline/transform && uv run --with dbt-postgres python -m dbt.cli.main parse --profiles-dir .`
+Expected: parse OK, no compilation errors.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add pipeline/plugins/extractors/tap-uk-ofsted pipeline/transform/models
+git commit -m "feat(pipeline): carry the report-card inspection's own date; pick newest MI file in discovery"

+### Task 4: Census-based context benchmarks; kill the FSM fallback
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `pipeline/transform/models/marts/fact_census_benchmarks.sql`
+- Modify: `pipeline/transform/models/marts/_marts_schema.yml`
+- Modify: `backend/models.py` (new `CensusBenchmark` model)
+- Modify: `backend/data_loader.py` (`compute_benchmarks`)
+- Modify: `backend/app.py` (compare endpoint call site, only if the signature change requires it)
+- Test: `backend/tests/test_benchmarks.py`
+- Modify: `nextjs-app/components/compare/CompareCommunity.tsx:36`
+- Test: `nextjs-app/__tests__/lib/compareLogic.test.ts` or the community section's existing test home (add a fallback-removal test where the FSM chip logic is tested today)
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `marts.fact_pupil_characteristics` (urn, year, phase_type_grouping, total_pupils, fsm_pct, eal_pct).
+- Produces: `marts.fact_census_benchmarks` — one row per phase (`'primary'`/`'secondary'`), columns `phase, year, fsm_pct, eal_pct, median_pupils`. `fsm_pct`/`eal_pct` are **pupil-weighted means** (so they approximate the national pupil-level rate, answering the expert's objection to school-median anchors). API `benchmarks.{primary,secondary}` keeps its existing keys; `fsm_pct`/`eal_pct`/`median_pupils` now come from this mart; `disadvantaged_pct` becomes primary-only (the KS2-column median was junk for secondary).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: dbt mart**
+
+Create `pipeline/transform/models/marts/fact_census_benchmarks.sql`:
+
+```sql
+{{ config(materialized='table') }}
+
+-- Mart: state-school context benchmarks from the pupil census — one row per
+-- phase, latest census year. Computed at import time (never per request).
+-- fsm_pct / eal_pct are pupil-weighted means, i.e. "what % of pupils", not
+-- "the median school" — this matches how DfE quotes national FSM/EAL rates.
+-- Consumers must label these "state-school average (computed from our
+-- dataset)" (spec §8.6), never "England average".
+
+with latest as (
+    select max(year) as year from {{ ref('fact_pupil_characteristics') }}

+    round(percentile_cont(0.5) within group (order by total_pupils))::integer as median_pupils
+from classified
+where phase is not null
+group by phase
+```
+
+Add a `fact_census_benchmarks` entry to `_marts_schema.yml` in the file's existing style (name + description; column tests only if sibling marts have them).
+
+Run: `cd pipeline/transform && uv run --with dbt-postgres python -m dbt.cli.main parse --profiles-dir .` — expected PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Failing backend test**
+
+In `backend/tests/test_benchmarks.py` add:
+
+```python
+def test_benchmarks_use_census_mart_for_context(monkeypatch):
+    census = {
+        "primary": {"year": 202425, "fsm_pct": 25.3, "eal_pct": 21.8, "median_pupils": 240},

+def test_benchmarks_context_none_when_mart_missing():
+    result = compute_benchmarks(_sample_df(), census_benchmarks=None)
+    assert result["primary"]["fsm_pct"] is None   # never silently fall back
+```
+
+(`_sample_df()` = this file's existing dataframe fixture.) Run the file; expected: FAIL (unexpected keyword `census_benchmarks`).
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Backend implementation**
+
+`backend/models.py` (next to the national-average models):
+
+```python
+class CensusBenchmark(Base):
+    """State-school context benchmarks from the pupil census — one row per phase."""
+    __tablename__ = "fact_census_benchmarks"
+    __table_args__ = MARTS

+    eal_pct = Column(Float)      # pupil-weighted mean
+    median_pupils = Column(Integer)
+```
+
+`backend/data_loader.py` — change the signature and `_block`:
+
+```python
+def compute_benchmarks(df: pd.DataFrame, census_benchmarks: dict | None = None) -> dict:
+```
+
+Inside, keep `_median` and `_weighted_disadvantaged` as-is, and replace `_block` with:
+
+```python
+    def _block(sub, phase, with_disadvantaged):
+        census = (census_benchmarks or {}).get(phase) or {}
+        block = {
+            # Context measures come from the census mart (pupil-weighted):
+            # the performance df has no fsm_pct, and its eal/disadvantaged
+            # columns are KS2-only — medianing them for "secondary" produced
+            # junk anchors from the handful of all-through schools.
+            "eal_pct": census.get("eal_pct"),
+            "sen_support_pct": _median(sub, "sen_support_pct"),

+            "median_pupils": census.get("median_pupils"),
+        }
+        if with_disadvantaged:
+            block["disadvantaged_rwm_expected_pct"] = _weighted_disadvantaged(sub)
+        return block
+```
+
+and the return:
+
+```python
+    return {
+        "source": "state-school average (computed from our dataset)",
+        "year": int(latest_year),
+        "primary": _block(prim, "primary", with_disadvantaged=True),
+        "secondary": _block(sec, "secondary", with_disadvantaged=False),
+    }
+```
+
+In `backend/app.py`'s compare endpoint, load the mart and pass it (same defensive style as the national-averages queries):
+
+```python
+    census_benchmarks = None
+    try:
+        rows = db.query(CensusBenchmark).all()

+    except Exception:
+        db.rollback()
+    ...
+        "benchmarks": compute_benchmarks(df, census_benchmarks=census_benchmarks),
+```
+
+(Import `CensusBenchmark`; use the endpoint's existing db session pattern.) Run the backend suite; expected: PASS (update any existing benchmark tests that asserted the old median-sourced fsm/eal values).
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Frontend — remove the cross-definition fallback**
+
+`nextjs-app/components/compare/CompareCommunity.tsx:36`:
+
+```tsx
+    const anchor = bench?.fsm_pct ?? null;
+```
+
+If the FSM chip has unit coverage, update/add the case: `anchor` null ⇒ no verdict chip rendered (bare value only). Run `cd nextjs-app && npx tsc --noEmit && npm test` — expected PASS.

+- [ ] **Step 4: Backend — official provenance, no computed fallback**
+
+`backend/models.py`: change the `Ks4NationalAverage` docstring to `"""Official DfE KS4 national headline averages — one row per academic year."""`.
+
+`backend/app.py` `_national_averages_payload`: delete the entire `if not any(secondary_by_year.values()):` fallback block (it computes dataset means that the UI footnote then labels official). Update the function docstring's KS4 sentence to: `official DfE KS4 figures (fact_ks4_national_averages). If the KS4 mart hasn't been built yet, the secondary series is empty — never a computed stand-in, because the UI labels these figures as official.`
+
+Update `backend/tests/test_national_averages_marts.py`: the test that exercised the fallback now asserts the opposite —
+
+```python
+def test_ks4_secondary_empty_when_mart_missing(...):
+    # No computed stand-in: the UI labels national figures as official DfE
+    # data, so an empty mart must yield an empty secondary series.
+    payload = _national_averages_payload(df)
+    assert all(not e["secondary"] for e in payload["by_year"])

+
+(adapt to the file's existing fixtures/monkeypatching). Run the backend suite — expected PASS.

+
+### Task 6: Honest 2021/22 footnote
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `nextjs-app/components/ComparisonChart.tsx:243-247`
+- Modify: `nextjs-app/lib/compareChartData.ts` (comment lines 7, 53–55 — comments only, no logic)
+- Modify: `nextjs-app/__tests__/lib/compareChartData.test.ts` (test name/comment wording only)
+- Modify: `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-11-compare-screen-redesign-design.md` §8.1
+
+**Interfaces:** none — copy and docs only. This is the one place the plan changes reviewed copy, because the reviewed copy is factually wrong (Global Constraints exception).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Fix the user-facing copy**
+
+In `ComparisonChart.tsx` replace the note:
+
+```tsx
+      {built.showUnpublished202122Note && (
+        <p className={styles.chartNote}>
+          No national tests were held in 2019/20 and 2020/21 (COVID), and our dataset doesn&apos;t
+          yet include school-level figures for 2021/22 — the England average is shown for that
+          year.
+        </p>
+      )}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Fix the lying comments**
+
+In `compareChartData.ts`, update the header comment (line 7) and the `showUnpublished202122Note` doc comment (lines 53–55) to say the 2021/22 school-level figures are *absent from our dataset* (DfE published them in Dec 2022; ingesting them is a backlog pipeline task), not "unpublished". Rename nothing (the flag name stays — pure rename churn). In `compareChartData.test.ts`, adjust the test description/comment wording the same way.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Correct spec §8.1**
+
+In the spec's §8.1, replace any wording that calls 2021/22 school-level KS2 a "permanent DfE gap" with: DfE published school-level KS2 results for 2021/22 in December 2022 (with comparability caveats); they are not yet ingested — loading them remains an open pipeline task, and the chart footnote says "our dataset doesn't yet include" accordingly.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Verify + commit**
+
+Run: `cd nextjs-app && npx tsc --noEmit && npm test` — expected PASS.
+
+```bash
+git add nextjs-app docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-11-compare-screen-redesign-design.md
+git commit -m "fix(compare): stop attributing the missing 2021/22 school-level year to DfE"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 7: Full verification, PR, and post-deploy checklist
+
+**Files:** none new (verification + PR).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Run everything**
+
+```bash
+uv run --with-requirements requirements.txt --with pytest --with "httpx==0.27.0" python -m pytest backend/tests -q
+cd nextjs-app && npx tsc --noEmit && npm test && cd ..
+cd pipeline/transform && uv run --with dbt-postgres python -m dbt.cli.main parse --profiles-dir . && cd ../..
+```
+
+Expected: all PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Open the PR**
+
+Push `fix/compare-final-review-mustfix`; open a PR via the Gitea API using `git credential fill` basic auth (token-header auth 401s). PR body: summarize the five findings and fixes, link the expert review, end with the standard Claude Code attribution + session URL. Note in the body that findings 2 and 4 also need a **DAG run after the staging deploy** before the UI shows corrected data.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Post-merge staging verification (after the user merges and the daily DAG runs — record results, do not promote)**
