ClawSweeper now collects selective evidence within the original review, aligns reviewer network access with its promise, and fixes attachment retrieval for GitHub-hosted images.

ClawSweeper's proof machinery gets a substantial upgrade [1]: it now supports maintainer-requested evidence reassessment, binding proof to the validated prior review and exact head/body/base, while keeping normal reviews read-only and automatic proof retired. Reviewers also get a truthful capability prompt: the sandbox now grants allowlisted network access and a managed proxy, matching the previously promised GitHub token access [2]. In a separate fix, reviews of PRs with embedded screenshots no longer fail when images are uploaded via GitHub's drag-drop or user-attachments API; GitHub attachment URLs are now fetched for evidence [3].
