# Seventh independent audit remediation closure

**Result: source findings remediated; operational readiness remains BLOCKED.**

The checked-in package remains `partnerReady=false`, `pilotReady=false`,
`v2Default=true`, with zero active design partners and no network actions.
No human, entity, authority, evidence, acceptance, signature, audit,
deployment, or legal conclusion is fabricated.

## Finding closure

- **H-01:** closed in source: separate disabled legal-registry trust policy/root; exact issuer/root pinning; external response path/digest resolution; signature, exact entity semantics, ordering, expiry, and 30-day freshness checks.
- **H-02:** closed in source: actual methodology inputs, unique logs/transcripts, event-derived component and combined counts, exact arithmetic, and recomputed one-sided Hoeffding upper bound.
- **H-03:** closed in source: no uncapped categories, exact category units/caps, cumulative remedy sum and category-allocation sum bounded by aggregate/maximum loss, explicit non-additive remedy treatment.
- **M-01:** closed in source: candidate-interval and 30-day exercise freshness, exact participant role/identity/org binding, exact ACTUAL-CONTACTS cross-binding, unique typed objective logs and ordered timestamps.
- **M-02:** closed in source: unique resolved receipts with exact candidate/commit/tree/scope/function/role/identity/org/channel/nonce/outcome/timing binding and assigned-controller Ed25519 signature.

## Verification

- 178/178 tests passed normally.
- 178/178 tests passed under `python -O`.
- All 15 named seventh-generation attack regressions passed.
- The focused seventh harness rejected all 17 probes; zero were accepted.
- Original, third, fourth, fifth, expanded, and sixth harness logic was replayed.
- Two organizational gate runs were byte-identical.
- Aggregate package gate passed while preserving the blocked state.
- Strict JSON, Python AST, cache, generated-file, symlink, checksum, and package-only status checks passed.

## Remaining external blockers

- No pinned genuine independently administered external human-identity authority.
- No pinned genuine independently administered external legal-registry authority or fresh signed registry responses.
- No established legal entities, independently attested people, organization memberships, key ownership, role assignments, or signatory authority.
- No actual security/privacy/incident/support/change/commercial contacts or signed reachability receipts.
- No insurance decision/evidence, counsel signoff, privacy signoff, partner acceptance, executed commercial agreement, or signatures.
- No exact clean committed source/evidence/attestation candidate, canonical candidate-bound test/log/transcript/input artifacts, deployment evidence, or partner-approved rollout.

This closure is an engineering verification record, not legal advice and
not evidence that a legal entity, person, partner, authority, deployment,
audit, agreement, acceptance, or signature exists.
