1. Compare the request to the invoice or capital call notice.
2. Check the bank details against our approved payee list.
3. Flag if any of these are true:
   - New or changed bank account
   - Urgent tone or pressure to skip steps
   - Amount differs from the source document
4. Write a one-line verdict: CLEAR or HOLD, with the reason.
5. Never send the wire. A person calls back and approves it.
