test(baseline): add 3 Phase 7 invariant tests (Batch E complete)

TIER-2 READ conductor/code_styleguides/error_handling.md end-to-end before Phase 7.

Phase 7 Batch E migrated 8 sites (1 of 8 was done in 57b67780; 7 added here).
Total tests: 22 pass (4 Phase 1 + 3 Phase 2 + 3 Phase 3 + 3 Phase 4 + 3 Phase 5 +
3 Phase 6 + 3 Phase 7).

Audit: mcp_client BC 9 -> 3. Total MIG 56 -> 48 (8 sites migrated).
