Two gaps found by validating the repair chain against a real German novel:
Split quotes whose inquit uses a pronoun rather than a name (»Ja, ungewöhnlich«
+ ", antwortete er knapp.") stayed Unknown, because every existing rule
requires a literal name after the speech verb. The antecedent is unambiguous,
so it now resolves the same way the colon rule does — to the last character
named in the narration immediately before the quote. Verified on the book: 2
further lines resolved with no LLM call, including the reported case.
The repairNarration pass also only received the verification prompt when
launched from the menu button; called from auto-repair or programmatically it
fell back to the general casting prompt, which is not written for the "is this
narration actually speech?" question. It now defaults to the verification
prompt in every entry path.
