Edward Langley 42cbf0932b docs: name the follow-up, and stop the scratch dir looking like a ticket id
improvise-udt2 is the ticket context/code/cli.md section 3 points at: a status
message carries no severity, so a refusal that does not abort cannot set a
non-zero exit. It names both disproved classifiers, so the next attempt does
not rediscover them.

And the per-test scratch directory was named `improvise-cli-<tag>`, which
matches the ticket-id shape the AGENTS.md audit greps for. An ID-shaped
non-ID is worse than a dead ID, because the diagnosis is identical and the
repair is not.
