-- [ ] Task 2.1: Delete duplicate `import json`.
+- [x] Task 2.1: Delete duplicate `import json`. [02b10098]
   - WHERE: `src/code_path_audit.py:655` and `:658`
   - WHAT: Remove one of the two `import json` statements. Keep the first; remove the second (or vice versa, both produce identical behavior).
   - HOW: Use `manual-slop_edit_file` with `old_string = "import json\n\n\nimport json\n\ndef read_input_json(path:"` and `new_string = "import json\n\ndef read_input_json(path:"` (preserves whitespace, removes the duplicate).
