Use b bruk as a base, no other bruk is needed. Actually, you should use c bruk instead, for blocking and plastering.
 
To start with, I wouldn't plaster against the frame directly, but rather with something shock-absorbing against the frame. For example, floor foam or similar so you get a few mm gap that flexes.

Then the next question is how thick the plaster needs to be.

Regarding down towards the floor, it looks damp, which would justify increasing the strength of the plaster.

When it comes to plastering the wall, I would probably cut the guide rail to the right thickness and get started.

When it comes to the plastering on the wall itself, I would have cut the right thickness of the drawing list and started off.
The craftsman who applied gypsum plaster did not remove it from the wall, which is an internal wall.
Instead, additional B-plaster fine was applied.

Should one complain or wait to see if it cracks?

As for going down to the floor, it looks damp which would justify going up in strength on the mortar.

When it comes to plastering itself on the wall, I would probably have sawed the gauge rod to the right thickness and started.

Unfortunately, I cannot comment on how gypsum and plaster work in this way.
But I wouldn't want to have them in that order.

Haha, say it's done wrong and don't pay.
You can pour water on it and see what happens.

Flushing water on an indoor wall is a bit more than what a wall is expected to withstand😉

The wall gets damp from below.
It's the dampest period now, so it should reveal itself during the summer.

Thanks for your input, everywhere I've read / said that the strongest should be at the bottom and the weakest on top. Now it becomes something you don't want as you write.
We'll see tomorrow if they can do better when the concrete floor is laid. Otherwise, the entire renovation will be postponed 😁🙈😇

Thanks, now there's more to add.
Did you see the picture when you zoom in on the unevenness, where the plaster shone through?

With such limited space on the old wall, the question is whether it has settled or if you can expect it to move.
After all, you're going to pour and they can move the wall...

Were there cracks before you started fixing it?

Your last image is a bit difficult to interpret in terms of what one sees.

Although you are going to pour concrete, and that could affect the wall...

Your last picture is a bit hard to interpret.
In the room where the craftsman worked, there were no cracks.
It was like white splatter + wallpaper. The outer wall is made of concrete hollow blocks
the partition wall is built with gråsuggor

And the interior walls are Wallategel, and it is the walls with Wallategel that he has applied with plaster.

Beforehand, I had applied a primer A + mesh
Went all in 😁🙈

If painting with silicate paint and you notice it doesn't work because he said it wouldn't show with paint. Can anything be done about the unevenness?

As someone who has worked on this, can a real mason
Smooth out the wall without losing too much plaster? Since I'm thinking they have to redo it after we lay the concrete floor.
 
Different colors on the plaster can be easily concealed, but not the irregularities.
Regarding dropping plaster... put something on the floor and it's no problem at all.
