Resolves #13910

managePrReview now accepts the documented Micro-Delta Review format from the review-loop cost circuit breaker as a first-class review body shape. Full and follow-up reviews still use the existing canonical template validation; Micro-Delta reviews take their own narrower path with state-vector, focus, verdict, and remaining-blocker-class checks so they cannot become a semantic-review shortcut.

Evidence: L2 local unit/static evidence achieved for the close-target validator ACs. Residual: none.

Deltas from ticket

• The implementation keeps the existing full/follow-up validator behavior intact by moving selected body-shape validation behind local helper functions.
• The Micro-Delta template is now discoverable as .agents/skills/pr-review/assets/pr-review-micro-delta-template.md.
• The circuit-breaker audit now points to the asset instead of burying the full template inline.
• Failed Micro-Delta attempts point callers at .agents/skills/pr-review/SKILL.md, .agents/skills/pr-review/audits/review-cost-circuit-breaker.md, and .agents/skills/pr-review/assets/pr-review-micro-delta-template.md.

Turn-Memory Pre-Flight / Slot Rationale

Disposition: move. The detailed Micro-Delta template is not always-turn substrate and does not belong in SKILL.md; it is a conditional pr-review asset loaded only when the review-loop cost circuit breaker reaches state (a). The always-loaded delta is minimal: the existing audit keeps a one-line pointer to the asset, while the reusable body lives in .agents/skills/pr-review/assets.

Review Response — Micro-Delta Asset Discoverability

Reviewer feedback: peers cannot know the Micro-Delta review shape if it is not exposed under .agents/skills/pr-review/assets.

• [ADDRESSED] Added .agents/skills/pr-review/assets/pr-review-micro-delta-template.md as the discoverable template contract.
• [ADDRESSED] Changed .agents/skills/pr-review/audits/review-cost-circuit-breaker.md to point state (a) at the asset instead of carrying the full template inline.
• [ADDRESSED] Updated PullRequestService.mjs failure guidance so attempted Micro-Delta bodies point to the skill, circuit-breaker audit, and asset template paths.
• [ADDRESSED] Added/updated focused validator assertions for the asset path in PullRequestService.spec.mjs.
• [ADDRESSED] Posted the required source-ticket contract ledger on #13910: https://github.com/neomjs/neo/issues/13910#issuecomment-4781393702
• [ADDRESSED] Updated the PR body with the turn-memory pre-flight / slot-rationale audit.

CI hold: current head 6e6f65809d has GitHub checks still in progress, so I am not claiming re-review-ready until they are green.

Follow-up lifecycle note: current head 6e6f65809dab83cf9f3faefc2067527c30d1b0ce is now green after the earlier CI hold.

All GitHub checks are passing on the same head that addressed the requested Micro-Delta asset discoverability gap. Grace is already requested for re-review.
