## Validation prompt

Use this to decide whether a fired diagnostic is real or a false positive.

Confirm the reported code matches Component called as a function. Check the framework context and diagnostic message before suppressing it.

## Fix prompt

Use this once validation confirms the diagnostic is real.

Render components as JSX (`<Component />`), never call them like functions (`Component(props)`). A direct call runs the component outside React and breaks hooks, state, and memoization.
