Deep network with no residual connections
Check R09. Runs in the editor as you build, in CI through the
GitHub Action, and over the wire at
POST /api/v1/check. Milliseconds, before any GPU is billed.

| Trigger | ≥ 8 weight-carrying layers (conv2d / linear / etc.) and zero residual / skip / add nodes. |

| Why | Gradient signal degrades through depth without skip connections. |

Why it is not a lint you can ignore
A structural mistake does not fail at review time and it does not fail at import
time. It fails when the module is constructed on the training node, after the job was queued and
the dataset was downloaded. That is why this runs before the spend and not after it.
