+"""Fail-closed host adapter for the C6 governed source-patch pilot.
+
+The adapter owns no worker registration, authority database, effect ledger, or
+Git mutation implementation.  Those are host-owned.  It only joins an exact C6
+operation binding and v3 TaskPlane claim to an existing durable external
+transaction owner.
+
+The transaction owner is a security boundary.  Its ``execute_prepared`` method
+must durably record the send phase before an external call, call
+``before_external_call`` while holding its own lease/fence, acquire and persist
+the real WriterLease, enforce expected-OID CAS at the write linearization point,
+and leave an ambiguous call in EFFECT_UNKNOWN.  A callback by itself is not an
+atomic revocation or CAS fence.
+
+``RootActionConsumer`` exposes an exact-key facade only after the host installs
+a trusted operation-to-review binding provider.  C6 callers cannot synthesize
+review_id, mission_id, root_task_id, root_revision, plan digest, or execution
+key.  The facade reuses the consumer's existing review, fence, and effect rows.

+# C4 capability contract provenance
+
+The C4 checkout has no `aios_capability_contract.py`, although
+`active-runtime/app/aios_agent_task_protocol.py` imports it at module scope.
+The read-only QA capture used for the missing source closure is:
+
+- source: `C:\\Users\\ImRuY\\.codex-restored\\work\\v2r2c5-release-20260926\\qa\\capability-contract.txt`
+- SHA256: `c97c9f8a3cf199a9c0348da1212aa26d161aad8ddaed84db534e46f490f2422f`
+- 140 lines
+
+The contract preserves separate task and worker alias maps, maps unknown task
+names to `exact:<token>`, ignores unknown worker names, and returns false for
+unknown or mismatched eligibility. It is used by formal AgentTask poll and
+claim paths only. Generic `task_plane` matching remains outside this lane.
+
+The authoritative runtime overlay is captured separately by QA:
+
+- base SHA256: `953de1d491b4f1bc47c71f502027fd488e6c48ecc49da8a91dc9d8754c320d17`
+- overlay SHA256: `7555aa067fc01c6a25276a834dda4924b404f3b0c529ed3f99e9f1d83d18798e`
+
+The consolidated module preserves the base mappings and adds only the seven
+explicit lifecycle labels: `agent-task:control`, `governed.task.create`,
+`governed.write.files`, `task.principal.issue`, `testing`, `verification`, and
+`writer.lease`. It does not depend on an absolute deployed path.
+
+Validation logs:
+
+- `PYTHONPATH=active-runtime/app python -m pytest -q tests/test_v2r2c5_capability_contract.py` -> 6 passed.
+- `PYTHONPATH=active-runtime/app;active-runtime python -m pytest -q tests/test_task_admission_bootstrap.py tests/test_task_admission_bootstrap_chain_contract.py` -> 45 passed.
+- `tests/test_task_admission_bootstrap_http.py` could not collect on Windows because the existing `gitea_tag_publication.py` imports unavailable `fcntl`; no capability assertion ran in that file.

+# C5 控制面闭合报告
+
+状态：本地工程闭合候选已形成；live control plane 尚未闭合。本文是交付准备记录，不是生产发布、activation、Task admission 或 RC 成功证明。
+
+## 已闭合的工程边界
+
+架构决定和实施计划将 unattended runner 定义为编排客户端。它不拥有 Owner authority、epoch issuer、Task DB、Git writer、approval verifier 或 production executor。现有组件仍是唯一权威：`TaskAdmissionBootstrapService`/`AgentTaskAdmissionPort` 负责 envelope、grant 和 Task admission；既有 lease/principal/writer chain 负责写入；trusted builder 和 `SilentReleaseActionService` 负责 candidate/provider evidence；`ReleaseSagaStore`、`ReleaseOrchestrator` 和 `ReleaseRecoveryWorker` 负责部署、回滚与未知副作用恢复。旧的 `release_state_machine.py` 不应再作为第二状态权威。
+
+本地 runner `active-runtime/app/governed_unattended_release.py` 已提供以下受限组合接口：
+
+```text
+GovernedUnattendedReleaseRunner.intake(intent)
+GovernedUnattendedReleaseRunner.admit(intent, authorization)
+GovernedUnattendedReleaseRunner.publish(intent, admission_receipt)
+GovernedUnattendedReleaseRunner.postpublication_rc(event_id, source_commit, version, source_readback)
+GovernedUnattendedReleaseRunner.deploy(candidate_id)
+```
+
+`SourcePublicationIntent` 对 repository、source/tree/base OID、精确 target branch、generation、execution digest、file allowlist、capability set 和 risk 做不可变规范化，并派生稳定 `task_id` 与 idempotency key。`admit` 在 envelope 已创建后遇到超时、连接断开或 5xx 时先 reconcile，不把未知结果当作未应用，也不重复提交；禁止错误不会重试。`publish` 要求同一 Task 的 `task_lease`、`task_principal`、`writer_lease`、authenticated commit receipt、base/branch/generation/execution digest/source/tree 全部绑定。缺一即阻断。
+
+本地模拟器 `scripts/simulate_c5_unattended_release.py` 从 Git object 读取 source/base/tree/diff/archive，运行候选 C5 contract tests，使用临时 Owner key 和真实 admission/bootstrap/TaskStore 实现完成隔离签名与 admission，再写入现有模型的 candidate/manifest/RC JSON。输出明确标记 `SIMULATION`、`official_release=false`、`authority_source_commit=null`、`acceptance=PENDING_AUTHENTICATED_PRODUCTION_PROVIDER_EVIDENCE`、`approval=NOT_REQUESTED`、`deployment=NOT_ATTEMPTED`。这条链路可证明结构、签名验证、隔离 TaskStore、幂等和非权威 artifact 写出；不能证明 live authority、live publication、trusted production provider、release approval、runtime health 或 deployment。
+
+`governed_release_evidence_producer.py` 的 `produce_evidence_closure(...)` 可生成现有 RC evidence closure，但要求 tests、canary、Gitea、rollback、secret-scan 每一类均有 trusted-provider receipt，并校验 artifact/manifest/package closure/source/tree。相同 closure 幂等，内容变化为冲突。该闭合器不得被调用来伪造 provider pass。
+
+现有 release service 的正式接口仍应按以下顺序复用：
+
+```text
+SilentReleaseActionService.create_release_intent(payload)
+  -> get_release_candidate(candidate_id)
+  -> get_release_plan(candidate_id)
+  -> get_acceptance(candidate_id)
+  -> verify_release_acceptance(candidate_id)
+  -> get_approval_envelope(candidate_id)
+  -> submit_owner_approval(signed_payload)
+  -> start_deployment(candidate_id)
+```
+
+`create_release_intent` 只能接收 event/source/version，并从 authenticated source admission resolver 得到版本与 admission ID；不能接收 caller evidence。`submit_owner_approval` 必须经既有 signed release-plan verifier 和 durable approval store。`start_deployment` 会重新加载 durable approval，调用既有 saga/orchestrator；caller 传入的 approval 不作为授权来源。
+
+## 当前 live 未闭合
+
+以下条件仍未证实，不能写成 PASS 或 COMPLETE：
+
+- `authority_source_commit` 仍为 `null`；没有正式 live source publication receipt、authority Git readback、TaskLease/TaskPrincipal/WriterLease/commit closure。
+- 没有 live C5 exact source-only policy 的 Owner-signed activation、policy digest、issuer、revocation source 和 fresh epoch。不能用本地 policy/request hash、旧 activation binding、simulation epoch 或借用 credential 替代。
+- 没有 live registered machine caller 的可用 admission route；当前 runner 不能自行成为 authority issuer 或把 `engineering` 风险提升为全局允许值。
+- 没有真实 trusted builder/provider resolver 的完整绑定，尤其是 authenticated tests、canary、Gitea、rollback、secret-scan receipts；本地 candidate artifact 不是生产 evidence closure。
+- 没有 pre-authorized Owner approval broker 为精确 candidate/release plan 签名。source-only authorization 不等于 release approval。
+- 没有完成 live `SilentReleaseActionService` 的 candidate、acceptance、release plan、saga readback，也没有 deployment composition、runtime health、rollback 和 post-tag/finalization readback。
+- C6 已冻结；C5 自动化支持若进入后续发布，必须重新计算 source/tree/file binding、execution plan 和 signed authority，不能把支持代码自动并入既有 candidate。
+
+## 最终本地验证
+
+2026-09-26，在 Linux/Python 3.12.3 的隔离目录中完成 **184 passed** 定向回归（5.53 秒）。范围包含 epoch v1/v2、source policy、runner、真实 release service/Owner signature 集成、既有 admission/bootstrap/recovery、production contract 和 provider evidence producer。没有重跑历史全量业务测试，也没有把旧的 598 passed 计为本次新增代码的结果。
+
+新增集成覆盖实际 signed builder、signed Owner approval、source substitution 拒绝、无 verifier 拒绝及 durable attestation 篡改拒绝。公开 acceptance 接口包含脱敏字段；`verify_release_acceptance` 在现有 service 内加载原始 durable 数据重新验签，保持公开脱敏规则，向 runner 返回验证摘要。
+
+最终 `demo-run-4` 从不可变候选 `536a2af0f07962495c88526061ce43fb27994c15` 的 archive 执行 C5 capability N01/N02/N03，经过真实 SSHSIG 验签、真实隔离 Task admission、幂等重放和 scope/revocation 负例，成功写出 `V2R2C5_RC.simulation.json`。该 candidate 保持 `BUILDING`；正式 source OID 为空，provider acceptance 待补、approval 未请求、deployment 未执行。
+
+可复核证据位于集成工作树相邻的 `../evidence/final-targeted-tests.xml`、`../evidence/demo-run-4/V2R2C5_RC.simulation.json` 和 `../evidence/demo-run-4/SHA256_MANIFEST.json`。这些结果证明隔离工程闭环，不证明 live 发布闭环。
+
+## 可恢复下一步
+
+1. 在现有 governed Task → TaskLease → TaskPrincipal → WriterLease → Governed Commit 链上发布 runner/epoch compatibility/exact policy guard 支持，并 read back commit/tree/receipt。
+2. 由已有 Owner authority 通过控制面激活精确 C5 source-only policy，记录 signed activation、policy digest、issuer、expiry、revocation source；随后请求 fresh epoch。禁止直接写受信任目录或复用旧 epoch。
+3. 用真实 registered caller 执行 admission；对 envelope、admission receipt、Task 状态和 authority OID 做 readback。任何 unknown effect 先 reconcile。
+4. 仅在 publication receipt、lease chain、commit receipt 和 authority readback 完整后，调用 `create_release_intent`，再由真实 provider 生成并验证 candidate、acceptance、plan、saga 和 RC evidence。
+5. 由预授权 Owner approval broker 对精确 release plan 签名，经 `submit_owner_approval` 验证并 durable 存储。缺 broker 时保持阻断，不降低 risk、不 mint client signature。
+6. 若另有明确生产授权，再调用 `start_deployment`；依赖既有 pre-switch/canary、health、rollback、tag/finalization reconciliation。否则将结果保留在已签名、可重放的 RC/approval-ready evidence，而不触碰生产。
+
+## 运行时假设
+
+真实组合依赖 Linux/POSIX `fcntl` locks、`fsync`/atomic rename、受限 symlink/open、Git authoritative bare repo、Gitea/ref readback、systemd service identity/restart、health endpoint、Ed25519 verification，以及 KMS/HSM/secret-manager reference。`execution_enabled=false`/shadow mode 是默认安全状态；生产执行缺少 approval verifier、trusted builder、builder attestation verifier、orchestrator、pre-switch validator 或 trusted policy 时必须 fail closed。

+# C5 release automation implementation and rollout
+
+The engineering task implements a repeatable orchestration path and isolated executable proof. It does not treat local artifacts as an activated production capability. V2R2C6 is frozen.
+
+## Parallel implementation ownership
+
+1. Epoch compatibility: admission bootstrap and signed-epoch provider; v1 regression, original-byte v2 verification, tamper/schema/revocation tests.
+2. Exact policy lifecycle: existing structured Owner issuer plus an exact source-publication guard; TTL, current trust, revocation, scope and configured-risk checks.
+3. Thin runner: generated immutable intake, admission/reconciliation, publication proof gate, existing trusted candidate service and signed approval/deployment entry points.
+4. Integration: isolated executable demo, targeted contract tests, architecture/gap reports and immutable local commit/archive evidence.
+
+Each implementation lane uses a separate Git branch/worktree. Integration uses ordinary local commits without force-push, main mutation, TaskDB mutation or production writes.
+
+## Minimum executable closure
+
+Run the simulation CLI with a Git repository, committed source/base and a new output directory. It must derive the file list, tree and source archive from Git objects; run the selected checks; issue a fresh test-only Owner policy/epoch using ephemeral keys; verify them with the actual registry verifier and dual-schema provider; submit an envelope through the actual admission service against an isolated Task transport; and write an existing-model RC artifact with all evidence hashes.
+
+The output must say `SIMULATION`, `official_release=false`, and retain `authority_source_commit=null`. It must not invent live provider receipts or set `READY_FOR_APPROVAL` without the existing acceptance path. Ephemeral private keys are confined to a temporary directory and excluded from exported evidence. A signed test receipt authenticates only its stated isolated environment.
+
+From this implementation checkout on Linux/POSIX, with Git, OpenSSH, pytest and cryptography available:
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/simulate_c5_unattended_release.py \
+  --repository /path/to/local/candidate/repository \
+  --source 536a2af0f07962495c88526061ce43fb27994c15 \
+  --base e5f8209f57b43fc39e55c4555776e6362ce326eb \
+  --output /path/to/new/isolated/evidence-directory
+```
+
+The command creates its own isolated Task store and ephemeral signing domain. It has no live transport or deployment adapter. No manually assembled JSON, existing Owner credential, service restart or production endpoint is needed.
+
+## Required checks
+
+- v1/v2 consumer compatibility, original bytes, issuer/key/namespace/digest, unknown schema, invalid fields, expiry and revocation.
+- Existing medium policy still denies engineering; exact source policy denies any changed branch/base/source/tree/files/caps/execution binding.
+- Missing verifier and missing/failing revocation lookup deny; admission replay rechecks authorization.
+- Stable intake identity, bounded retry, no retry for policy rejection, unknown side-effect reconciliation and conflicting receipt rejection.
+- Missing TaskLease/principal/WriterLease/commit/readback cannot produce a live RC.
+- Existing signed approval, provider evidence, saga integrity, deployment verification, rollback and post-tag reconciliation contracts.
+- C5 capability negatives N01/N02/N03 and affected regression tests only; historical full-suite counts are not reused as evidence for new changes.
+
+## Governed rollout after local verification
+
+1. Publish the support commit through the existing Task -> TaskLease -> TaskPrincipal -> WriterLease -> Governed Commit chain. Read back its OID/tree/receipt.
+2. Governed-install the dual-schema consumer and exact source-only policy guard on the existing control-plane service, preserving the old artifact for rollback.
+3. Activate the exact policy and dedicated machine caller using the existing Owner authority. Record signed activation, policy digest, issuer and revocation source. This is a provisioning step, not an implicit authority granted by the runner.
+4. Request a fresh epoch and execute C5 admission/publication. Rebind evidence to the authority-readback OID; it may differ from the local candidate.
+5. Run actual build/test/security/canary/rollback providers and their authenticated resolver. Invoke `create_release_intent` against the authority source; read back candidate, acceptance, plan and saga.
+6. Have the pre-authorized Owner broker sign the exact release plan, and submit it through `submit_owner_approval`. Source-only authorization is insufficient here.
+7. Call the existing deployment controller with approved durable state. Canary/pre-switch, health, promotion, registry/baseline finalization and rollback follow the existing saga. Verify runtime identity and final consistency.
+
+Missing live authority or provider composition is a durable blocker, never a reason to lower risk, bypass G0, mint signatures in the client or call production restart directly.

+# C5 governed unattended release: architecture decision
+
+Status: selected for isolated implementation; live activation is not implied.
+Task: TASK-AIOS-C5-GOVERNED-UNATTENDED-RELEASE-PLATFORM-DESIGN-AND-IMPLEMENTATION-20260926-R1
+
+## Decision
+
+Select **B, additive v1/v2 epoch consumption**. Verify the producer's original canonical signed bytes and retain the actual schema, issuer, key, policy digest and revocation semantics. Project common typed fields only after verification. A v2 payload is never relabelled v1 and its signature is never copied onto another payload.
+
+The producer's `policy_digest` hashes the Owner policy. It is not interchangeable with the default Task Admission policy digest. The existing policy factory propagates this digest; the compatibility change preserves that binding. A v2 `canonical_payload_digest` covers the payload before that field is added, while the signature authenticates the complete original canonical payload.
+
+Option A would either be the same dual-schema verification hidden behind a misleading v1 label, or require a new signature. Option C would change more producers and consumers without resolving the immediate authority/composition gap. B preserves v1 operation and has the smallest rollback surface.
+
+## One control plane
+
+The unattended runner is an orchestration client. It does not become an authority issuer, Task database writer, Git writer, approval verifier, release state machine, or production executor.
+

+| Claim, principal and WriterLease | Existing Task/lease/governed writer chain |
+| Source commit proof | Governed commit receipt plus authority Git readback |
+| Build, provider evidence and candidate | Trusted builder, provider resolver, `SilentReleaseActionService` |
+| Approval | Existing signed release-plan approval verifier and durable approval store |
+| Deployment and recovery | `ReleaseSagaStore`, `ReleaseOrchestrator`, `ReleaseRecoveryWorker` |
+
+The older linear `release_state_machine.py` is not added as another release state authority. The runner consumes durable state from the existing stores. Recovery of an unknown mutation reconciles that state before another write.
+
+## Least privilege and unattended authority
+
+The source-only policy binds repository, source commit/tree, base commit, exact target branch, generation, execution digest, file set, capability set, engineering risk, expiry and fresh identity. It cannot authorize main writes, tags, deployment, baseline mutation or historical Task mutation. The global admission ceiling stays `medium`; an exact verified request may use its separately signed engineering policy. A different request must be denied before envelope creation.
+
+Recognizing the `engineering` rank in the issuer does not raise any configured ceiling. An existing `medium` Owner policy still rejects engineering issuance. The structured policy issuer must narrow its configured Owner policy; it cannot install or activate a policy for itself.
+
+Each authorization rechecks signature, current key trust, expiry, revocation and scope. No automatic extension of expired epochs is allowed. A controller requests a fresh epoch under an already activated Owner policy. Source-only authority cannot be exchanged for release approval. Automatic release approval requires a separately delegated Owner broker to sign the exact candidate and release plan; missing or revoked delegation stops the workflow.
+
+“No interaction” is an execution property after governed provisioning. It is not permission to create a trust root or grant the controller new powers. Current production has not been provisioned for this new composition.
+
+## Retry and recovery
+
+Task and event identities derive from immutable input. Retries retain them. Policy rejection is terminal until policy/input changes. A timeout is not proof that a write failed: use the admission receipt/official Task readback, publication receipt and authority OID, or existing release saga/operation journal to reconcile. Unknown or conflicting effects remain blocked. Transport calls require bounded timeouts; a controller deadline alone cannot cancel a remote mutation.
+
+Build and acceptance evidence are obtained through trusted providers, not caller-supplied pass flags. A local simulation artifact is explicitly marked non-authoritative. Its source OID, archive hash and cryptographic checks can be real without proving live publication, runtime acceptance or deployment.
+
+## Risks and rollout
+
+1. Schema acceptance alone does not activate a usable policy. Roll out the consumer and exact policy guard together through governed control-plane publication.
+2. The existing deployed Owner policy does not authorize the C5 scope, and the current caller has no usable authenticated activation/epoch route. Provision the narrowly scoped service identity and policy through the existing governance plane. Do not use direct root file writes as a substitute.
+3. Signed source policy and epoch must agree on the Owner policy digest. Mixing epochs, digests or request identities fails closed.
+4. The local source candidate `536a2af0f07962495c88526061ce43fb27994c15` is preserved. Automation support changes are separate commits. Any decision to include them in the release must regenerate the governed execution plan and exact file/source bindings.
+5. The existing deployment engine contains canary/pre-switch, runtime verification, rollback and post-tag reconciliation logic. Tests establish adapter contracts; they do not prove current production composition or health.
+
+## Rollback
+
+Disable the new runner, revoke its source-only policy/epoch and stop new admissions. Preserve journals, receipts, immutable Tasks and candidate records. Revert the consumer/support module deployment to the prior governed control-plane artifact; v1 remains supported throughout migration. Never rewrite already issued signed payloads or historical Task state.
+
+Production deployment rollback remains the existing signed plan's rollback operation and release saga. A post-tag/finalization uncertainty requires reconciliation; it must not be hidden by an automatic tag rewrite. C4 stays the production baseline until a separately approved C5 deployment completes runtime verification.

+
+## 信任和执行接口
+
+1. `release_host_authority.VerifiedCurrentRecordReader` 每次生成随机 challenge，校验响应目的、查询摘要、父授权摘要、时间窗口、已登记密钥与原始 Ed25519 签名。主机配置固定 purpose→key；响应不能带入新信任根。权威端必须每次读真实当前状态后签 challenge，不能给旧 ACTIVE snapshot 重新加时间。
+2. `HostReleaseAuthorityReaders` 将验签后的精确记录转换为既有 StandingReleaseAuthorization / ReleaseExecutionScope。执行范围绑定同轮父授权记录。broker 在签发前后和 effect 前重读，不用旧签名掩盖撤销、完成、关闭、根或范围变更。
+3. `RegisteredReleaseSignerCommand` 只向已登记 release approval signer 提交既有 `SignedReleasePlanApproval.canonical_bytes()`；校验 key、算法、消息摘要和 raw Ed25519 签名后返回原合同。SSHSIG armor 不是 raw Ed25519 签名，禁止解码冒充。发布 broker 不代替 TaskPrincipal、WriterLease、promotion/source authority。
+4. `task_plane.host_patch_executor` 连接现有 C6 pilot seam 与外部持久事务所有者。解析真实 ExecutablePatchV1；claim 不是 WriterLease。实际提交必须在外部事务线性化点检查当前授权代次、租约/fence 和 expected OID CAS。内存 callback、本地进程锁或测试事务不能证明生产跨主机原子性。
+5. `HostOperationReceiptReaders` 读取独立 verifier 与 business acceptor 的签名挑战响应。主机固定角色身份、不同 key 与 acceptance revision；执行者不能验证/验收自己。输入不得携带 `authenticated` 字段，只有验签和角色绑定成功才在内部观测中派生该值。原 closure reducer 再核对 effect receipt、结果摘要、verification receipt、时效和 acceptance revision。
+
+RootAction 的 host binding 固定授权引用、授权代次、公钥指纹、Task/Job/claim/fence、补丁、计划与实际提交内容。短期观测的 challenge 和有效窗口单独验证，不成为新动作身份。普通旧式 `run_once` 不得领取这些已绑定 C6 动作；C6 的恢复先枚举既有账本未闭合 intent，再做领取发现，避免任务退出候选列表后遗留未知效果。恢复入口仅允许精确对账，不能重新 acquire/commit。
+
+动作提交成功与三层验收闭合分别记录：尚缺独立验证或业务验收的已提交动作仍属于重启后的待闭合集合。闭合记录必须从受信回读重新核算精确 receipt 与摘要链，并在原 effect 行保存验收证据摘要；调用方自报成功不能移除待闭合动作。该记录用于恢复调度，不替代原始独立服务回执。
+
+## 验收回读协议
+
+`compose_host_release_controller` 提供实际组合入口，分别注入 current-record 与 approval 的目的受限 keyring，并配置 key_id→raw 公钥 SHA256；不同别名不能绕过目的隔离。组合冷启动不读取短期服务，实际签发/执行时才读并核验。内置 `BoundedCommandTransport` 只支持 POSIX 主机，以进程组、总时间和总输出上限管理提供方及子进程；Windows 在启动子进程前拒绝此 transport。字节协议 reader、签名适配及控制器仍可在 Windows 做隔离验证。
+
+purpose 分别为 `operation-verification`、`operation-acceptance`。query 包含完整 OperationBinding、binding_digest、expected_identity、expected_key_id、expected_key_fingerprint；acceptance 另含 expected_acceptance_revision。响应使用 current-record v1 envelope；record 是原 operation-verification/acceptance-observation v1 的 schema 与对应 observation，省略 authenticated。acceptance 的 expected 身份和 revision 来自主机配置，不能由外部 receipt 自报。两角色的已登记身份、key_id 和 raw Ed25519 公钥 SHA256 均须不同，不能用同一公钥的不同别名绕过独立性检查；keyring 轮换必须显式更新对应主机策略，不能静默换钥。
+
+公开业务检查、部署/恢复检查由实际独立服务生成。适配器不生成成功回执、不写平台 registry，也不把聊天角色当正式 worker 身份。缺服务、密钥、授权或当前记录时停止相关 effect，仍可继续诊断与其他独立工程。
+
+## 安装和证据
+
+`c6_host_lab.py` 验证 immutable artifact、sidecar、组件配置与 unit 字节，拒绝危险归档路径、链接、占位符及摘要漂移。实验服务使用独立目录、非 root UID 和 loopback 端点；必须分别记录进程启动/重启、真实组件加载和权限拒绝，不能把静态 systemd verify 或自定义 health JSON 当生产验收。
+
+隔离测试使用临时密钥、仓库和事务，证据仅证明实现行为。正式主机仍需已登记 authority/scope/signer、patch worker 与 transaction owner、独立 verifier/acceptor。最终版本必须重新绑定 Agent-A 真实验收的 C5 source/tree/artifact/config/rollback。所有 provisional 制品维持 deployable=false；签名、candidate 或 source 变更必须重建摘要，不能复用旧批准。
+
+存储迁移只在既有 root-action effect 账本增加可空字段和唯一索引，保留旧状态与未知副作用语义；旧 DB 重开回归独立验证。生产恢复到 C5 还必须关闭 C6 执行调度并使旧消费者不能领取遗留 C6 动作，未知效果保持隔离对账。不能仅切旧代码后继续消费新账本，也不能删除新增列、回灌旧 DB 或丢弃新任务来伪造恢复成功；这属于最终 C5 恢复合同尚需实测的门槛。
+
+当前 Public Bridge 的 WriterLease 返回合同若没有真实 lease ID 和 fence，精确执行入口拒绝提交；不能由客户端自行生成这些字段。外部授权代次、租约与 OID 的原子校验仍必须由正式写入端兑现。崩溃后的纯对账路径不会因为本地记录为 LEASE_ACQUIRED 就自动重发提交；恢复调用方和正式写入端必须证明可安全续行后才能接通对应恢复能力。
+
+`deploy/aios-v2/c6-host-lab.requirements.lock` 固定 Linux x86_64 / CPython 3.12 的 27 个 wheel 版本和 SHA256。这是隔离验证环境锁，不声明其他平台兼容。交接 wheelhouse 可用 `python -m pip install --no-index --find-links wheelhouse --require-hashes -r c6-host-lab.requirements.lock` 离线安装到新 venv；本次已实际重建并通过 `pip check` 和 cryptography/FastAPI/Uvicorn/pytest/jsonschema/yaml 导入。不要安装到系统 Python 或修改生产环境。
+
+## 给 Agent-A 的串行配置边界
+
+交接包给出固定源码、配置模板、协议、测试和摘要后，由 A 协调正式共享变更窗口。需要核对现有服务身份和 exact signer 协议，注册/配置只能走已有治理能力；不让 Owner 手工拼接签名。B 在正式写权交接前只操作自己的隔离 lab。未观测到可用服务时，缺口按 authority/signer/worker/fence/verifier 分项登记，不简写成“只等 C5”。

+`92ece1e9646ac2d12b4b467c82b1279ac1e11608`) and preserves its V2R2C6 source
+and security changes. The original reviewed selection was made against
+`b915386ccbed46a7ae77220887da8ae666649a79`. Current main already contains the
+product source commit; the remaining five reviewed source commits and isolated
+fixtures are carried by this candidate. This is a source and test consolidation
+only. It does not create a production baseline, update the runtime registry,
+activate a Task or Agent, publish a tag, or authorize a protected merge. The
+production source, tag, artifact, and existing baseline records remain immutable
+inputs to their validators.
+

+The reviewed selection manifest contained 41 paths and eight non-identical
+overlap records. No receipt, journal, live baseline, runtime registry record,

+
+## Per-file decisions
+
+| Classification | Paths | Decision |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| source | `active-runtime/app/aios_baseline/service.py`; `aios_capability_contract.py`; `aios_task_principal_v3_receipt_provider.py`; `approved_release_executor.py`; `c5_exact_deployment_adapter.py`; `c5_registered_installer_executor.py`; `c5_staging_installation.py`; `governed_publication_client.py`; `release_source_admission.py`; `task_plane/live_governed_writer_adapters.py` | Integrated G1/product behavior and fail-closed validators. |
+| builder source | `active-runtime/app/aios_trusted_candidate_builder.py` | Kept the later builder contract and integration validation. Replaced historical live policy identity constants with values read from the governed policy. |
+| completion source | `active-runtime/app/c5_completion_api.py`; `c5_completion_phase.py`; `c5_completion_renewal.py`; `c5_completion_signer.py`; `silent_release_hardening.py` | Retained completion-only successor validation. Authority root, state root, Owner key, predecessor fingerprint, and historical Saga head now require a root-owned digest-bound bindings file. |
+| shared completion/boundary source | `active-runtime/app/c5_release_execution_host.py` | Retained the completion host and added the boundary integration-policy checks. Source-admission Task identity is now supplied by the digest-bound host configuration. |
+| deployment source | `active-runtime/app/c5_production_deployment_adapter.py` | Applied the later strict symlink-resolution check to the integrated installer version. |
+| provider source | `active-runtime/app/trusted_evidence_providers.py` | Retained artifact-to-extracted-tree binding and structured gitleaks JSON handling. |
+| helper | `scripts/build_c5_live_principal_overlay.py`; `scripts/build_c5_staging_artifact.py`; `scripts/probe_issuer_v3_r2_readonly.py` | Kept deterministic/read-only helper behavior. Overlay creation now requires explicit Task and Agent bindings; the checked-in example uses synthetic fixture identities. The staging artifact producer emits the final consumer's fixed 128-tilde `c5-r14-source.conf` drop-in path. |
+| fixture | `tests/fixtures/c5-r14-execution-plan.json`; `tests/fixtures/issuer-v3-base/*`; `tests/fixtures/trusted-candidate-builder-policy-c5.json` | Kept only isolated synthetic Task/Agent identities. Moved the C5 builder policy from runtime config to test fixtures. |
+| tests | `tests/baseline_v1_1/test_claim_heartbeat.py`; `tests/baseline_v1_1/test_loop.py`; `tests/task_plane/test_live_governed_writer_adapters.py`; `tests/test_c5_builder_contract.py`; `tests/test_c5_completion_renewal.py`; `tests/test_c5_exact_deployment_adapter.py`; `tests/test_c5_production_deployment_adapter.py`; `tests/test_c5_registered_installer_executor.py`; `tests/test_c5_release_execution_host.py`; `tests/test_c5_staging_artifact.py`; `tests/test_c5_staging_installation.py`; `tests/test_governed_publication_client.py`; `tests/test_issuer_v3_overlay_builder.py`; `tests/test_issuer_v3_receipt_provider.py`; `tests/test_signer_contract_compatibility.py`; `tests/test_trusted_candidate_builder.py`; `tests/test_trusted_evidence_providers_harness.py`; `tests/test_v2r2c5_capability_contract.py` | Integrated the selected regression coverage and resolved overlap tests in favor of the combined security contract. Execution-enabled heartbeat fixtures explicitly install trusted identity and evidence verifiers. The staging-artifact fixture builds a disposable Git source repository and never reads a live release tree. |
+
+## Overlap resolution
+
+1. Builder source and tests use the later builder contract while preserving G1
+   admission and rollback validation.
+2. Deployment source and tests retain the integrated adapter and add the later
+   strict symlink target checks.
+3. The release host retains completion-only support and the boundary/provider
+   integration checks; the boundary host was not accepted wholesale because it
+   would remove completion behavior.
+4. `silent_release_hardening.py` retains the completion dependency and derives
+   its state-root check from the registered completion authority while keeping
+   the C6 standing-authorization guard and credential fencing.
+5. The six current-main overlaps were reconciled without whole-file selection:
+   the baseline evidence changes were identical, the capability vocabulary kept
+   the C6 digest additions, staging tests kept C6 file-mode fixtures, and the C5
+   completion dependency was combined with C6 authorization guards.
+6. The unsigned staging producer and the final consumer now share the governed
+   fixed drop-in identity. The consumer's path, mode, archive, hash, and signature
+   validators remain unchanged and fail closed on any other producer path.
+
+## Excluded ephemeral material
+
+The candidate contains no live one-time Task or Agent identity, TTL, nonce,
+approval fingerprint, activation file, or default historical Saga-head binding.
+It also contains no copied receipt, live journal, baseline, registry projection,
+signer credential, or production service state. Immutable source/tree/artifact,
+lineage, hash, expiry, authentication, and compare-and-swap checks remain in the
+code. Test-only identities are explicitly named `fixture-*` or `FIXTURE-*`.
+
+## Verification record
+
+Verification is recorded against the committed candidate and its exported
+snapshot. Windows results are treated as development evidence only where POSIX
+ownership, mode, or symlink semantics are unavailable. The authoritative full
+regression is run from the exported tree in a disposable Linux unit with empty
+capabilities, private network and temporary directories, a read-only system,
+and no signer, live configuration, or Task database access.

+# V2R2C6 acceptance record
+
+Current review: see [V2R2C6_MAINLINE_VERIFICATION_20261001.md](V2R2C6_MAINLINE_VERIFICATION_20261001.md).
+The 2026-09-26 facts below are historical. C6 is now based on the accepted
+`V2R2C5` tag (`5f65e458957dd51c9973cfa956a624f3cbf54990`); source integration,
+component tests, and isolated Linux proofs have advanced. Production C6
+acceptance remains unestablished. Do not use the historical base or gate rows
+below as current deployment facts.
+
+Status: **DEVELOPMENT CANDIDATE — NOT RELEASE ACCEPTED**.
+
+This record separates source verification from package, host, governed runtime,
+and business acceptance. Final commit/tree and artifact identities are recorded
+in the delivery `SOURCE_MANIFEST.json`; validation commands/logs accompany it.
+
+## Identity and provenance
+
+| Item | Recorded fact | Acceptance effect |
+|---|---|---|
+| C5 base | local candidate `536a2af0f07962495c88526061ce43fb27994c15` | Pinned development ancestry only. It is not evidence that C5 was authority-published. |
+| C6 branch | `agent/v2r2c6-autonomy-20260926` | Local development branch; no protected-ref or publication claim. |
+| Final C6 HEAD | delivery `SOURCE_MANIFEST.json` | Exact committed source is required before merge/release review. |
+| Remote publication | not performed in this work | No C6 branch, tag, mainline, artifact, or deployment publication is claimed. |
+
+## Acceptance gates
+
+| Gate | State | Evidence and remaining requirement |
+|---|---|---|
+| A. Requirement/file traceability | LOCAL SOURCE MAPPED | F1-F7, the architecture input and implementation mappings are recorded in the C6 documents. Delivery inventory binds changed files to committed hashes; runtime gaps remain listed below. |
+| B. Local source behavior | PASS IN RECORDED SCOPE | 734 passed, 3 POSIX skips, 17 subtests passed. Includes the full TaskPlane test directory and selected related C5/C6 suites; it does not prove production behavior. |
+| C. Repository-wide supported-platform regression | NOT ESTABLISHED | Windows cannot collect all Linux-only modules and absent external dependencies. The successful related-suite command is recorded separately and is not a repository-wide result. |
+| D. Component artifact/config | NOT ACCEPTED | Component/build-spec code and tests exist. Final immutable archive identity, extracted-package import, service-UID load, actual config digest, governed install receipt, readback and rollback evidence are required. |
+| E. Host composition | NOT TESTED | C6 is default-off. A real Root reader, pinned registry, registered worker authority, verifier, effect/readback owner, durable-intent owner, governed pilot and WriterLease/CAS adapter have not been bound and observed together. |
+| F. Governed end-to-end | NOT TESTED | No live admission → claim/heartbeat → TaskPrincipal → WriterLease → durable intent/effect → exact readback → independent verification → authorized acceptance run is recorded. |
+| G. Linux/restart/rollback | NOT TESTED | Clean Linux install, effective systemd config, service UID, listener owner, restart, stale observation, rollback and post-rollback readback remain required. Windows POSIX no-follow tests were skipped and the implementation fails closed there. |
+| H. Release/business acceptance | NOT ACCEPTED | C5 publication ancestry, C6 governed publication, independent release review, deployed runtime identity and authorized business acceptance are absent. |
+
+## Functional acceptance statements
+
+- Authorization planning is read-only. It may find an existing exact Root path,
+  but cannot manufacture or extend Root authority. Any write still requires the
+  existing governed WriterLease/CAS path.
+- Automatic claim is authoritative only when the store adapter performs all
+  schedulability and authorization rechecks in the claim transaction. Its claim
+  receipt is not a WriterLease.
+- Parallelism is accepted only for disjoint local resource scopes. Same-effect
+  and same-branch writes remain serialized by the authoritative effect owner and
+  WriterLease/CAS, including across processes and hosts.
+- Missing or ambiguous effect evidence stays `UNKNOWN`; it does not authorize a
+  retry. ACK-loss recovery uses exact effect-key readback.
+- P6 is intentionally narrow: it accepts an exact, unexpired Owner-signed
+  terminal decision and emits an idempotent `NOOP` receipt. It provides no
+  resume, terminal reopen, effect execution, or successor creation path.
+- ARO Phase A is default-off and read-only across eight dimensions. Its six-value
+  decision output and audit report do not grant authority or mutate task,
+  policy, Git, release, or business state.
+- Execution recorded, independently verified, and business accepted remain
+  separate gates. A component test, self-report, Shadow result, health endpoint,
+  archive checksum, or verifier `UNKNOWN` cannot close business acceptance.
+
+## Evidence accepted at this stage
+
+The following evidence is accepted only as local component evidence:
+
+- operation/readback/patch focused suite: 24 passed;
+- ARO/decision focused suite: 28 passed;
+- auto-claim, schedulability and capability contract workstream suite: 57 passed;
+- signed terminal-NOOP recovery plus lineage/API workstream suite: 38 passed;
+- external API security and related legacy tests: 25 passed, 2 Windows skips.
+
+The skips cover POSIX directory-descriptor/no-follow behavior and require a Linux
+run. Package, runtime identity, evidence composition, full regression and live
+host totals are intentionally not inferred or filled from the presence of test
+files. Final commands, environment, exit codes/counts and artifact hashes
+accompany the delivery manifest. Source regression ran on Windows 11 / Python
+3.14.7: 734 passed, 3 skipped, 17 subtests passed in 112.85 seconds (runner wall
+time 115.27 seconds). Six Windows socket shutdown thread warnings remain in the
+log. The first aggregate failed six fixture time assertions; observation-time
+clocks fixed them, then the same complete related suite passed. No production
+behavior was relaxed to satisfy the fixture.
+
+## Required release evidence still absent
+
+1. Authority-published C5 identity and ancestry reconciliation against the local
+   C5 candidate used for development.
+2. Independent release review and complete CI/test record on supported Linux
+   environments; local HEAD/tree and related-suite inventory are delivered.
+3. Immutable component archives, build spec/config digests, dependency and
+   rollback identities, governed installation receipt and readback.
+4. Trusted Linux host observation of loaded module/config/process identities,
+   restart behavior, rollback, and drift detection.
+5. A real default-off-to-enabled composition with Root/registry/worker/evidence/
+   intent/readback/WriterLease adapters and the registered governed source-patch
+   pilot.
+6. The complete governed vertical flow, independent verifier result, authorized
+   business acceptance and exact OID/effect reconciliation.
+
+Until those records exist, the release verdict remains **NOT ACCEPTED**. This
+does not invalidate the focused source tests; it limits what they prove.

+# V2R2C6 architecture and compatibility
+
+2026-09-29 update: `V2R2C6_TWO_LAYER_AUTHORIZATION.md` specifies the concrete
+standing release broker, signed parent/actor binding, short credential renewal,
+stable action identity and actual effect guards. It builds on C6 `faf6eb2` and
+retains the existing Saga, approval store and capability ledger. Local host
+composition is provided; registered production readers/signer and external
+write fencing still require host integration and runtime acceptance.
+
+2026-09-28 update: the branch incorporates reviewed C5 source
+`2af1dfbc40277ba1d89c8fae8b18098d40e51672` through merge `d54f832`.
+The release controller, standing-authorization routing and task/event projection
+changes are described in `V2R2C6_RELEASE_CONTROL_INTEGRATION.md`. These are local
+source changes; host composition and production acceptance remain separate.
+
+Original development base: C5 local candidate `536a2af0f07962495c88526061ce43fb27994c15`
+(tree `9f27f76e7fa5561f90ff8bfe26fd18865b4a5ebb`). This is a source ancestry
+statement, not proof that C5 has been released. C6 is developed on
+`agent/v2r2c6-autonomy-20260926`; protected refs and deployed state are outside
+this development change.
+
+## Authorization and automation
+
+The Owner's existing authorization remains the trust boundary. A read-only
+planner checks the pinned Git capability declaration, exact task/actor/mission,
+repository/branch/source/file scope, time, budget and revocation. It never signs
+or extends a Root. `acquire_authorized_writer` re-reads those inputs and delegates
+only to the existing `GovernedWriterAutomation.acquire_verified` path. A valid
+Root can support the existing bounded Epoch issuance; an expired or widened
+Root requires the established Owner authorization flow.

+The API host owns the optional tick; no second scheduler daemon, authorization
+database, signer, Task database or ExecutionLease is introduced. An installed
+module, enabled flag, or healthy HTTP response does not grant execution rights.
+
+The only execution pilot is `governed_source_patch_apply`. A task must carry its
+immutable `c6_operation_binding_digest` and generation; that digest binds actor,
+tenant, task/job, source, branch, capability namespace, input/patch/plan/policy,
+scope and effect identity. Runtime preflight is read-only and repeated before
+effect. A pilot must persist an exact execution intent and the host must read
+that receipt back before execution. The current claim, authorization, freeze
+and exact effect state are checked again under the host authority guard before
+the pilot's short write critical section. Planning, model calls and general
+agent work must occur outside that section. The registered executor remains
+responsible for write-time Root/revocation/budget/WriterLease/CAS checks and
+effect-key idempotency at its own linearization point. No executor adapter
+is synthesized from an agent-provided `live=true` assertion.
+
+## Concurrency, claims and recovery
+
+Formal AgentTask capability tokens retain their C5 vocabulary; negotiated
+clients additionally bind its deterministic schema digest on registration,
+admission, polling and claim. Legacy clients retain C5 behavior. Generic
+TaskPlane wildcard capabilities stay in a different namespace.
+
+The TaskPlane adapter rechecks authorization, scope, worker registration revision,
+capabilities, heartbeat, task revision/generation, dependencies, freeze and
+capacity inside the same authority/SQLite transaction that creates the claim.
+Its v3 receipt contains actual claim/revision/attempt/digest fields. An attempt
+number is never relabelled as a WriterLease fencing generation. Existing claim
+renewal is fenced by holder, claim identity and task operation digest. Enabled
+C6 HTTP heartbeats require the exact v3 claim receipt and use this same scoped
+controller; missing authority assertions deny renewal.
+
+`MutationGuard` uses ticket identity and thread ownership. Replayed, forged,
+foreign or already-finished tickets cannot release another holder's lock.
+Optional resource scopes permit independent local targets to proceed in parallel;
+the existing WriterLease/CAS remains authoritative across processes and hosts.
+
+Unknown effect outcomes are reconciled by the same immutable effect key. A
+missing reader, 404 or lost ACK does not authorize re-execution. The host keeps a
+pending unknown operation on readback only. Existing durable intents also block
+execution after a host restart; readback or formal recovery must resolve them.
+Durable effect knowledge belongs to
+the existing Task/Job authorities, not the host's in-memory observation cache.
+Terminal recovery validates exact signed identity/CAS/nonce before returning a
+NOOP, and does not rewrite historical tasks.
+
+## Evidence and closure
+
+Execution requires explicit finite trusted identities and an injected evidence
+verifier. Service construction preserves a store's configured verifier and
+rejects conflicting verifier identities. Legacy unsigned evidence producers
+receive a migration error before writing; complete signed envelopes bind the
+task, claim, producer, domain sequence, digest chain and expiry. The included
+HMAC adapter consumes an externally supplied key resolver; it creates no trust
+root or persisted key. A deployment must bind its approved verification provider.
+
+Task/Job execution, independent verification and authorized business acceptance
+are separate facts. Shadow completion, self-verification, untrusted signatures,
+stale/cross-scope receipts or absent acceptance cannot become business success.
+Rejected terminal transitions are audited after the failed mutation transaction
+rolls back. Each evidence domain rejects duplicate/regressing sequence numbers;
+there is no invented global sequence across authorities.
+
+ARO Phase A reads eight dimensions (function, performance, exception, usage,
+defect, history, deadlock and long-running work). It writes only immutable audit
+reports and exposes the six decision values. Missing facts remain UNKNOWN. It
+does not acquire authority, sign, execute, or automatically expand task scope.
+
+## Components, runtime identity and configuration
+
+`deploy/aios-v2/c6-components.json` declares formal AgentTask, Bridge, TaskPlane
+and health component roots. The builder reads dependency bytes from the exact
+Git commit with replacement objects disabled, resolves only selected local
+modules, and records every packaged file's digest. Tests import extracted
+components without a worktree PYTHONPATH. Dynamic/data dependencies must be
+explicit; production host bindings must be checked separately.
+
+`BUILD-SPEC.json` freezes nonsecret effective config as a separate hashed build
+input. It permits credential reference names, not credential values or arbitrary
+environment/drop-in dictionaries. `COMPONENT-MANIFEST.json` records module,
+config, explicit per-component data/unit files, source/tree, entrypoint,
+dependency contract and rollback identities.
+The detached receipt records the final archive digest, avoiding self-reference.
+Exclusive publication prevents accidental overwrite; it is not a claim of
+filesystem immutability. Consumers must verify receipt and file hashes whenever
+opening an artifact. A source rollback reference is not a tested service rollback.
+The legacy health-only installer explicitly rejects C6 component deployment.
+These source packages require an approved component host installation binding.
+
+Runtime status separates declared identity from trusted observed identity and
+uses PASS/FAIL/UNKNOWN. A 40-character Git OID is not an artifact SHA-256. Empty
+inventory, stale/missing observations and self-reported environment/health values
+cannot produce readiness or independent runtime verification. Liveness remains
+available. Clean Linux service installation/restart/rollback and independently
+observed module/config hashes are release gates, not inferred from package tests.
+
+## Compatibility and later integration
+
+Explicit-trust fixture/API migration is intentional: callers enabling execution
+must configure trusted identities and a verifier; unsigned evidence is rejected.
+C5 formal protocol exports and default legacy capability negotiation remain.
+Single-segment filenames and nested relative file paths have separate validators;
+protected path writes use POSIX directory descriptors/no-follow and fail closed
+on unsupported platforms. Runtime selection and event/context/observability
+ingress use server-derived identity and tenant scope. Development authorization
+bypass requires an explicitly isolated staging profile on loopback.
+
+After C5 publication, verify the released C5 commit against this recorded base.
+If C5 changed, merge that released ancestry into the C6 branch and rerun affected
+checks. C6 review, governed repository publication, mainline merge, deployment
+and runtime/business acceptance remain separate gates. Do not infer any of them
+from a local source test, archive checksum, or this document.

+# V2R2C6 architecture input reconciliation
+
+Status: read-only reconciliation of the 2026-09-26 architecture review input
+against the current local C6 development candidate. This is not a new product
+requirement package, implementation authorization, runtime observation, or
+release decision.
+
+## Input identity and evidence boundary
+
+- Review ZIP SHA-256:
+  `f5121258ac8b1308bc8b1f50ccea40ef686f5727aede2433df65eaba0372d166`.
+- The integration owner reported safe extraction and successful verification of
+  all 395 checksum entries before this reconciliation.
+- Read scope was deliberately limited to `00-README.md`,
+  `08-open-work-and-conflicts.md`, `10-reviewer-handoff.md`,
+  `13-reference-review-reconciliation.md`, and the necessary
+  `12-platform-capability-map.md`.
+- The package's source evidence is fixed to historical main
+  `e5f8209f57b43fc39e55c4555776e6362ce326eb` (tree
+  `743caa498fcaaa150d7a3097d1c402e9b20bb819`) and its runtime observations are a
+  2026-09-26 snapshot. Neither is current C6 runtime truth.
+- Current C6 development remains based on the unpublished local C5 candidate
+  `536a2af0f07962495c88526061ce43fb27994c15` on
+  `agent/v2r2c6-autonomy-20260926`. The different baselines are retained rather
+  than merged into one claim.
+
+Commands and remediation suggestions inside the review package were treated as
+review data only. No production read/write, service action, authorization,
+Task/Job mutation, Git ref update, or package command was executed from it.
+
+## Compatibility with the approved v15/C6 direction
+
+| Review direction | Current C6 treatment | Reconciliation |
+|---|---|---|
+| One control plane and one write authority per domain | `OperationView` is a reconstructible read-only projection; C6 introduces no MissionRun/task/effect authority database. | Aligned. Do not expand DOPC into a universal state machine. |
+| Separate declared, installed, callable, authorized and fresh capability facts | Authorization planner, runtime observation and six-state operation preflight keep these facts distinct. | Aligned at source-contract level; installed/callable live evidence remains absent. |
+| Formal admission and claim use one vocabulary; unknown capabilities fail before a claimable row | Formal AgentTask schema digest and rejection tests are preserved separately from generic TaskPlane wildcard semantics. | H-02 is absorbed in source work; installed mixed-version routing is still unverified. |
+| Root/delegation cannot create an executor or reopen terminal state | Planner is read-only; WriterLease/CAS remains external authority; P6 only returns a signed terminal NOOP. | Aligned. No resume, effect execution, terminal reopen, or successor creation is attributed to P6. |
+| Exact pilot must exist before authorization can make it executable | `GovernedSourcePatchPilot` is an injected protocol and the only registered operation name is `governed_source_patch_apply`. | Partially aligned. The production executor/caller/install/readback chain is still a blocking absence. |
+| Unknown effect reconciles before retry | Exact immutable effect-key readback returns committed/not-committed/conflict/unknown and does not convert missing evidence into retry authority. | Aligned in component logic; restart and live authority ownership remain unverified. |
+| Independent verification and business acceptance remain separate | C6 evidence and closure contracts separate execution, verification and acceptance. | Aligned in source; real verifier and acceptor have not completed a live vertical flow. |
+| ARO must not self-authorize or self-modify safety policy | C6 delivers only default-off, read-only ARO Phase A over eight dimensions. | No conflict. The package's mutation gates, budget, rollback and independent acceptance apply to later ARO phases and are outside this C6 implementation. |
+
+The review package therefore does not require a broad architecture rewrite. Its
+main contribution is sharper evidence and deployment closure criteria for work
+already represented in the approved v15 design.
+
+## Requirements already absorbed by current C6 source
+
+| Review index | Current source response | Remaining evidence limit |
+|---|---|---|
+| H-02 capability admission | `aios_capability_contract.py`, `aios_agent_task_protocol.py`, C6 capability tests | Real installed route/package negotiation not observed. |
+| H-03 selected security findings | Model/actions hardening plus `agent_context_api.py`, `agent_observability_api.py`, `agent_event_api.py`, `agent_event_bus.py` address M-1/M-2/M-4/M-5/M-6/M-7/M-12 source paths. | All 13 gates still require final production-module evidence; source fixes do not prove effective mounting or deployment. |
+| H-06 read-only preflight | `task_plane/operation_view.py` implements exact binding and six mutually exclusive outcomes with bounded evidence references. | Real runtime observations and pre-effect host revalidation are not bound. |
+| H-08 projection/readback | `operation_readback.py` preserves authority-over-projection and treats stale/conflicting facts as unknown. | No live lag/divergence/restart observation exists. |
+| H-11 event tenant/target isolation | Event ingress requires trusted-principal `tenant_id` and exact `allowed_event_targets`; publish persists tenant binding and list/get/transition/stats enforce it before mutation. Missing host scope fails closed. | Effective host principal projection and externally mounted routes remain unverified. |
+| H-14 ARO Phase A | `aro_readonly.py` and `decision_policy.py` provide eight dimensions, immutable reports and six decisions without business mutation. | Later autonomous remediation gates are deliberately absent. |
+| H-23 reference-review security threads | Context identity, observability scope, event path handling, runtime selection and unknown-action negative paths have C6 tests. | Historical V1.1 test/deployment claims were not reused as current PASS. |
+
+## Current C6 implementation blockers confirmed by the new input
+
+These are concrete composition gaps, not requests for another framework:
+
+1. **Exact governed pilot (H-05).** C6 defines the input contract and host
+   protocol, but no production `governed_source_patch_apply` executor has been
+   identified and bound with its real caller, artifact, install path and exact
+   authorization consumer. Until then preflight must return
+   `EXECUTION_ENTRYPOINT_ABSENT` or another precise non-ready result.
+2. **Durable intent and effect owner (H-07).** The host requires an injected
+   durable-intent reader and authoritative effect reader. A fixture or in-memory
+   cache cannot satisfy this. The real Task/Job authority must own persistence,
+   ACK-loss readback and restart reconciliation without creating a second DB.
+3. **Authority composition (H-04).** Default-off C6 has not been bound to the
+   deployed verified Root reader, pinned Git registry, registered-worker
+   authority, revocation/budget checks, or actual WriterLease/CAS path.
+4. **Independent closure (H-09).** The source supports explicit verifier
+   identity and acceptance separation, but there is no current independent
+   verifier plus authorized business acceptor result for the C6 candidate.
+5. **Runtime/component identity (H-01/H-20).** Component packaging contracts are
+   present, but no clean Linux install, service-UID import, effective config,
+   loaded byte digest, rollback or on-site C6 readback exists.
+6. **Test truth (H-19).** Focused Windows component suites are evidence only for
+   their tested units. Linux-only no-follow, systemd, packaging, restart and full
+   production imports remain required.
+
+These blockers already fit the default-off host contract documented in
+`V2R2C6_CHANGE_MATRIX.md`; they do not justify enabling a generic shell writer,
+minting new authorization, or treating health/HTTP 200 as readiness.
+
+## Newly explicit follow-up work outside the current C6 boundary
+
+The review package also covers broader AIOS platform work. The following should
+remain separately owned follow-up routes unless a later requirement explicitly
+brings them into a release:
+
+- **H-12 durable message architecture:** C6 now enforces event tenant and exact
+  target scope from the trusted principal, but does not merge the file event
+  bus, TaskPlane outbox and Agent-OS message/memory prototypes into one durable
+  fabric. Delivery receipts, ordering, deduplication and DLQ ownership need a
+  separately approved route. A new universal message service is not implied.
+- **H-13 model/tool governance:** registry freshness, provider probes, fallback,
+  cost and audit are separate capability domains; C6 runtime-selection hardening
+  does not prove upstream model/tool availability.
+- **H-15 retirement:** old Task/Bridge/model entrypoints require caller and
+  in-flight-task inventories, single-writer proof and controlled drain before
+  sunset.
+- **H-17 disaster recovery:** Git/DB/artifact/receipt backup and isolated restore
+  must preserve nonce, lease and idempotency protections; no exercise occurred.
+- **H-18 API convergence:** source routes, OpenAPI, effective overlays and live
+  methods need a per-operation compatibility table. Current source-level tests
+  cannot establish effective routing.
+- **H-21/H-22 performance and non-core products:** real SLO/cost/manual-event
+  measurements and WebOps/search/channel E2E belong to their product owners.
+- **ARO later phases:** capability allowlists, deny-lists, budgets, rollback and
+  independent acceptance are prerequisites for any future mutation phase. They
+  are not silently added to Phase A.
+
+## Acceptance effect
+
+The new architecture input strengthens the existing `NOT RELEASE ACCEPTED`
+verdict but does not change it to a new failure or a completed review. Current
+C6 source has absorbed several design and security contracts; package integrity,
+historical main inspection and focused tests remain separate from live component
+identity, governed execution, independent verification, rollback and business
+acceptance. Closing the six blockers above is the minimum C6 integration route.

+Its fixed main (`e5f8209...`) and runtime observations are historical evidence,
+not current C6 truth. It confirms the present default-off blockers: no proven
+production exact pilot, durable-intent/effect owner, live Root/registry/worker/
+WriterLease composition, independent verifier/acceptor flow, Linux component
+readback, or complete production-module test evidence.
+
+Its broader platform items do not expand this C6 into a universal rewrite.
+Event tenant/target authorization was absorbed into the M12 source patch;
+durable message delivery, model/tool registry freshness, legacy entrypoint
+retirement, disaster recovery, route/OpenAPI/overlay convergence, and later ARO
+mutation phases remain explicit follow-up work.
+
+## F1-F7 traceability
+
+| Finding | Implemented source | Focused verification surface | Current boundary |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| F1 component artifact coverage | `scripts/autonomous-release/component_release.py`, `deploy/aios-v2/c6-components.json`, `scripts/autonomous-release/build_trusted_release_artifact.py`, `active-runtime/app/trusted_production_adapter.py` | `tests/test_c6_component_package.py` | Source-level component manifests and package checks exist. Service-UID import, governed installation, component readback, rollback, and vertical live E2E are not verified. |
+| F2 runtime identity truth | `active-runtime/app/component_runtime_identity.py`, `active-runtime/app/aios_chatgpt_bridge_v2_server.py`, `active-runtime/app/deployment_state.py`, `active-runtime/app/v2r1c6_privacy_tools.py` | `tests/test_c6_runtime_identity.py` | Declared and observed identities, Git OID and artifact SHA-256, and PASS/FAIL/UNKNOWN are separated in source. No independently observed live module/config/process identity has been collected. |
+| F3 verifier composition and producer migration | `active-runtime/app/task_plane/evidence_verifier.py`, `active-runtime/app/task_plane/{api,models,policy,store,evidence}.py`, `active-runtime/app/task_plane/c6_composition.py` | `tests/test_c6_evidence_composition.py`, `tests/task_plane/test_c6_composition.py`, `tests/task_plane/test_c6_terminal_audit.py` | Execution-mode trust is explicit and conflicting/missing verifier bindings fail closed. The included HMAC verifier needs an external resolver and is not a production trust root. A real provider, migrated live producers, restart readback, and fault-atomic live flow remain unverified. |
+| F4 reproducible configuration | `scripts/autonomous-release/component_release.py`, `deploy/aios-v2/c6-components.json` (`BUILD-SPEC.json`/component manifest contracts) | `tests/test_c6_component_package.py` | Nonsecret effective configuration and credential references have build-time contracts. Clean Linux installation, real systemd effective configuration, listener owner, restart, and rollback equivalence remain unverified. |
+| F5 exact preflight | `active-runtime/app/task_plane/operation_view.py`, `operation_readback.py`, `patch_contract.py`, `c6_composition.py` | `tests/task_plane/test_operation_view.py`, `test_operation_readback.py`, `test_patch_contract_c6.py`, `test_c6_governed_pilot_integration.py` | Operation binding, six preflight outcomes, stale/unknown handling, exact effect readback, and source-patch contract are implemented. READY is read-only and must be rechecked before effect. Live Root, registry, durable intent, governed pilot, and WriterLease/CAS adapters are not proven. |
+| F6 capability domain contract | `active-runtime/app/aios_capability_contract.py`, `aios_agent_task_protocol.py`, `active-runtime/app/task_plane/c6_composition.py` | `tests/test_c6_capability_contract.py`, `tests/test_capability_registry_c6.py`, existing AgentTask protocol regressions | Formal AgentTask vocabulary/schema digest remains distinct from generic TaskPlane capabilities; unknown formal tokens fail closed. Installed route/package interoperability and live mixed-version negotiation remain unverified. |
+| F7 trust and acceptance semantics | `active-runtime/app/task_plane/{policy,models,evidence,evidence_verifier,c6_composition}.py` | `tests/test_c6_evidence_composition.py`, `tests/task_plane/test_c6_composition.py`, `test_c6_terminal_audit.py` | Execution recorded, independently verified, and business accepted are separate facts. Shadow, missing/untrusted verifier, and absent acceptance cannot close business success. A real acceptor and production consumer have not been exercised. |
+
+## Original C6 capability goals
+
+| Goal | Implemented source and behavior | Verification and explicit limit |
+|---|---|---|
+| Authorization automation | `task_plane/authorization_planner.py` reads a pinned Git declaration and verified Root snapshot; `authorization_composition.py` delegates only through existing governed writer automation. | `tests/task_plane/test_authorization_planner_c6.py`. The planner does not sign, create a Root, widen scope, or authorize a write by itself. |
+| Automatic claim and renewal | `task_plane/schedulability_store_adapter.py`, `auto_claim.py`, and existing store/schedulability modules recheck worker, task, authorization, scope, dependency, freeze, capacity, revision/generation, and active claim in the authority transaction. | `tests/task_plane/test_auto_claim_store_c6.py` plus existing schedulability tests cover contention, stale proof, expiry, holder and renewal denial. A TaskPlane claim generation is not a WriterLease fencing generation. |
+| Parallel work | `task_plane/governance_control_kernel.py` uses ticket identity/thread ownership and optional resource scope; disjoint work can proceed while same resource serializes. Cross-process writes remain governed by WriterLease/CAS. | `tests/task_plane/test_mutation_guard_ownership_c6.py`, `test_c6_governed_pilot_integration.py`. No multi-host live concurrency run has been performed. |
+| Unknown-effect recovery | `operation_readback.py` reconciles exact immutable effect keys and keeps missing/conflicting outcomes UNKNOWN; `aios_task_parameterized_recovery.py` adds the bounded terminal recovery adapter. | `test_operation_readback.py`, `tests/test_task_parameterized_recovery_c6.py`. **P6 supports only an exact Owner-signed terminal `NOOP`. It does not resume an effect, reopen a terminal task, or create/authorize a successor.** |
+| ARO Phase A | `task_plane/aro_readonly.py` evaluates function, performance, exception, usage, defect, history, deadlock, and long-running dimensions; `decision_policy.py` exposes six deterministic decisions. | `test_aro_phase_a_c6.py`, `test_decision_policy_c6.py`. Default off; read-only inputs; immutable audit output; no authority, signer, policy mutation, task mutation, or `AUTO_FIX` for Phase A. |
+| External API residual security | `agent_context_api.py`, `agent_observability_api.py`, `agent_event_api.py`, `agent_event_bus.py`, shared `security_path_guards.py`, plus model/actions hardening owned by integration. | `tests/test_c6_security_residuals.py`, `test_c6_model_api_security.py`, and adjusted legacy negative fixtures. Server principal and loopback checks precede mutation; event tenant and exact targets come from trusted principal attributes and missing host scope fails closed; protected file operations fail closed without supported no-follow primitives. |
+
+## Host and authority boundary
+
+`task_plane/c6_composition.py` is default-off. Enabling it safely requires the
+real host to bind all of the following, with mutually consistent identities:
+
+1. an existing trusted `TaskPlaneService` with explicit identity/evidence trust;
+2. a pinned Git capability registry OID and manifest digest;
+3. registered worker and authorization readers;
+4. authoritative operation/effect readers and a durable-intent reader;
+5. the single registered `governed_source_patch_apply` pilot whose write path
+   revalidates Root, revocation, scope, budget, generation, WriterLease and CAS.
+
+No test fixture, `enabled=true`, health response, installed module, or in-memory
+intent is a substitute for those bindings. Clean Linux package installation and
+rollback, service-UID imports, actual systemd configuration, live governed E2E,
+independent runtime observation, and on-site release have not been verified.
+
+## Focused test evidence available before final integration
+
+| Command/scope | Observed result | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| `pytest tests/task_plane/test_operation_view.py tests/task_plane/test_operation_readback.py tests/task_plane/test_patch_contract_c6.py -q` | 24 passed | Operation/readback/patch component behavior only. |
+| `pytest tests/task_plane/test_aro_phase_a_c6.py tests/task_plane/test_decision_policy_c6.py -q` | 28 passed | Read-only ARO and decision component behavior only. |
+| auto-claim focused suite plus existing schedulability tests | 45 passed (workstream result) | Local store/authority-adapter claim and renewal behavior only. |
+| terminal-NOOP recovery focused suite plus lineage/API tests | 38 passed (workstream result) | Signed terminal NOOP/replay/schema behavior only. |
+| `pytest tests/test_c6_security_residuals.py tests/test_g7_auth_negative.py tests/test_agent_event_bus.py tests/test_agent_observability_loop.py -q` | 25 passed, 2 skipped | API security behavior, including event tenant/target denial; skips are POSIX descriptor/no-follow cases on Windows. |
+
+The final whole-suite count is not recorded here. A Windows collection attempt
+was blocked before execution by unavailable POSIX modules (`fcntl`, `grp`),
+missing optional packages (`cryptography`, `yaml`), and a concurrent test-module
+import. This is an environment/integration limitation, not a PASS and not a
+runtime acceptance result.

+
+这批补丁提供 C6 的源码实现、宿主装配契约、架构和回归测试。当前是默认关闭的
+开发候选；生产 executor、真实权限和证据适配尚未形成现场纵向验收。
+
+## 已纳入的输入
+
+- v15 完整需求、pre-launch 评审、C5 修改与 C6 建议。
+- 2026-09-26 架构评审交接包，其增量对账见

+
+## 合并和启用
+
+C5 正式发布后先核验其真实提交与本分支基线的祖先关系；若 C5 又有修订，先将
+已发布的 C5 祖先合入 C6，再运行受影响的测试。不要通过重写 C5、main 或 tag
+来使历史看起来一致。本次仅创建本地 C6 开发提交，未推送或修改受保护分支。
+
+启用前需要宿主明确提供 Root/registry/runtime reader、可信 worker receipt、
+领取事务中的授权/freeze 锁、证据验签、持久 intent/readback、正式 source-patch
+executor 和 WriterLease/CAS，以及独立 verifier 和业务 acceptor。
+缺少任一必要适配时保留默认关闭或明确拒绝。Linux 服务安装、服务 UID 下模块
+加载、重启、回滚、现场 E2E 和业务验收需独立完成。
+
+新架构参考中的消息 outbox/排序/去重/DLQ、DR 演练、旧入口退役及 ARO 自动修复
+是后续工作。当前补丁没有用“源码存在”或“测试通过”把这些项目标成完成。

+# V2R2C6 主线合入与问题核验
+
+核验时间：2026-10-01。Owner 已明确要求主线源码合并。此次合并基于已验收的
+`V2R2C5` tag，源码 `5f65e458957dd51c9973cfa956a624f3cbf54990`。
+原 C6 补丁 `d841948c21a9947a1d141ed46e189c80eb455eca` 已经由
+`034a07a05e2463973632f1a8e09eb4754ed7147e` 合入；后续
+`765f337b82c16ae944e8183b0ed2df53ca4d16a8` 只修正 C5 测试 fixture 的权限。
+最终主线提交、tree 和远端读回记录由交付清单绑定，避免文档自引用提交 OID。
+主线合并提交为 `83b77a53d2b626563d1f3fc285647192c292131f`，已通过正常
+Git 快进推送写入权威远端 `refs/heads/main` 并读回相同 OID；未使用 force push。
+此后文档验证结果的追加提交同样由最终交付清单绑定。
+
+## 之前讨论的问题是否已解决
+
+| 问题 | 当前源码结论 | 实际运行结论及剩余工作 |
+|---|---|---|
+| 版本业务授权被机器短 TTL 耗尽 | 已实现两层授权：根授权支持验收完成、撤销、取消、重大范围变更终止；短凭证受根授权与 verifier 上限约束。 | C6 正式 authority/scope reader 和 signer 组合尚未在生产观察。不能宣称最近发布中的授权空窗已消除。 |
+| 临用签发、提前或到期后自动续发 | broker 核验谱系、当前根授权和已知 effect；原审批存储通过锁和旧指纹 CAS 更新，保留 Saga 和动作身份。到期瞬间现在严格拒绝。 | 发布审批机制有源码验证；TaskPrincipal、WriterLease、source/promotion authority 仍需各自正式 issuer/续发 caller 接线，不能由审批 broker 代替。 |
+| 普通技术故障反复要求 Owner | 控制器区分 `WAITING_AUTHORITY` 与真实业务边界；撤销/关闭和风险边界先阻止相关副作用。常规路径目标为追加交互 0。 | 生产零追加交互尚无 C6 端到端证据。实时授权控制器 service inactive，Result=exit-code，ExecMainStatus=243；本次未观察到对应 timer。 |
+| 任务自动领取、续租 | claim/renew 在同一 TaskPlane 权威事务中重新核对能力、范围、worker、依赖、冻结、容量、proof、claim 和 CAS。 | 长时间阻塞执行期间缺少自动 claim heartbeat 或已强制的执行时限；当前只有显式 renew API及阶段前后检查。该活性缺口仍存在。 |
+| 多 Agent 并行 | 不同资源可并行；同一任务、动作和资源通过 claim、root/claim fence、动作账本和 CAS 串行。 | 生产跨主机 WriterLease/fence/expected-OID CAS 组合尚未验证。进程锁和本地测试不等于分布式写互斥。 |
+| ACK 丢失、重启重复执行 | durable intent、同一账本与 exact readback 让 UNKNOWN 进入只读对账；已持久化 `LEASE_ACQUIRED` 恢复不重复 acquire。 | 外部 lease 成功但 phase 尚未持久化的窗口仍依赖 Bridge 幂等和 Job/readback；缺少当前 C6 实际故障注入证据。 |
+| 重复失败和历史遗留可见性 | 原任务事件与 Mission/Run 起点保留，交互/决策/选择分别计数。 | dashboard 尚无独立 failure/retry/attempt 聚合；不能声称所有历史重复问题已解决。 |
+| SSE 断线与游标接续 | 已实现退避重连、polling fallback、410 snapshot 重置、watermark 和旧 stream generation 防护。 | 客户端去重缓存上限 1024；更早的 event ID 重放仍依赖 revision 和服务端冲突处置。 |
+| 执行、独立验证与业务验收混淆 | 三层证据和独立 receipt 验证接口已实现；缺失/冲突保持 UNKNOWN。 | 实际注册 verifier/acceptor、完整 governed 任务链与 C6 Production Acceptance 未建立。 |
+
+## 本次核验发现并修正
+
+执行凭证有效期改为 `not_before <= now < expires_at`。原实现的闭区间会在恰好
+到期时放行。修正 verifier、实际 effect guard 和服务入口 guard，并补入受控时钟
+回归；到期凭证可在当前根授权允许且 effect 已知时恢复续发，但不能据此执行旧凭证。
+
+Linux 对照还确认原 C5 fixture 用 `write_bytes()` 受 umask 影响产生 0600 文件，
+契约却记录 0644。测试 fixture 现在显式写入记录中的 mode；生产权限校验未放宽。
+
+## 验证范围
+
+- 先前精确 C5/C6 集成：重点授权/能力 82 passed；TaskPlane/C6/host 858 passed，
+  6 平台 skips。首次 7 个组件 fixture 错误来自未提交 HEAD，提交后组件组
+  15 passed、1 Linux-only skip。
+- C5 跨平台相关测试：52 passed、1 POSIX skip。
+- 隔离 Linux：baseline loop 20 passed、C6 capability 5 passed、修正后的
+  C5 staging installation 33 passed。staging artifact 缺独立 `live-release`
+  fixture，仍未完成有效验证。
+- 本次独立授权审查后的修正：renewal/controller 34 passed。
+- 扩展授权/发布加固回归：Windows 157 passed，2 项因当前账户没有 symlink
+  创建权限而在 fixture 阶段失败；同一源码 tree 的隔离 Linux 完整组
+  158 passed、1 Windows-only skip，覆盖两项 symlink 用例。
+- 本次独立自动化审查：decision/preflight 26 passed；SSE recovery JavaScript
+  测试通过。历史测试组存在重叠，不相加为总数。
+
+实时只读证据：生产 baseline 为 C5/`5f65e458…`；Task API WorkingDirectory 仍为
+`396ea981…-formal-lineage-canonical-v17`；C6 隔离 service inactive。C5 主线 tag
+与源码合并不代表 C6 已部署。历史交付中的真实 TaskPlane systemd 启动/重启与
+401 证据只证明隔离安装，不证明生产授权或业务完成。
+
+结论：可以确认表中已有源码与测试覆盖的问题已在对应范围内修正；完整无人值守
+发布仍需正式主机接线、自动租约活性、当前权限链和独立生产验收。主线源码合并
+应保留 C6 的显式启用门槛，并继续按这些未完成项验收。

+# C6 发布控制修改：v1.1.0 输入整合
+
+2026-09-29 补充：下文保留 9 月 28 日输入整合时的实现与验证范围。持续授权
+已进一步补齐具体 broker、JIT 签发/续发、签名父授权绑定、稳定动作身份和
+实际执行 guard；当前设计及接口以 `V2R2C6_TWO_LAYER_AUTHORIZATION.md` 为准。
+主机正式 reader/signer、分布式写入 fence 和线上验收仍是独立条件。
+
+本轮在既有 C6 分支 `agent/v2r2c6-autonomy-20260926` 上整合评审意见。
+原始 C6 提交为 `64eed3b11982305812b819647f63b79faff51bcf`，新 C5 源码为
+`2af1dfbc40277ba1d89c8fae8b18098d40e51672`，通过合并提交
+`d54f83266803a4df349385ea92dd7e6e4d040b91` 纳入，保留两侧提交历史。
+原始 C5/C6 工作成果和 9 月 26 日交付包保留。
+
+## 输入与实现边界
+
+v1.1.0 ZIP 的 SHA256 为
+`bc6f98cf3e1e4fdcef5dd04600a8f3f8b331eabe3818226f6469ff4914787820`。
+本轮重新验证 28 项包内摘要、19 项 C5 源码锚点和摘要、36 项离线测试。
+逐文件来源见 `V2R2C6_RELEASE_CONTROL_INPUT.json`。
+
+附件里的 T00–T07 是目标实施及验收要求，不是已发生的运行事实，也不授予
+生产写入权限。本轮交付范围是本地源码、测试、架构与可复现候选制品。
+没有从附件复制生产 Task、授权、端口或服务状态作为当前执行依据。
+
+四份 JSON Schema 位于 `contracts/release/v1/`，唯一参考策略位于
+`deploy/aios-v2/release-policy.v1.json`；它保留 `NOT_INSTALLED` 状态。
+Schema 描述接口结构，不能证明有效授权，也不会自动注册签名权或部署入口。
+
+## 复用的运行结构
+
+| 职责 | 现有实现 | 本轮约束 |
+|---|---|---|
+| 发布入口与阶段衔接 | `governed_unattended_release.GovernedUnattendedReleaseRunner` | 接通原 broker 和正式回读；不持有第二套状态机 |
+| 常驻接续 | `silent_release_execution.PersistentSilentReleaseController` | 根授权覆盖范围内先自动处理；人工通知由真实边界决定 |
+| 发布副作用与恢复真相 | `silent_release_hardening.ReleaseSagaStore` / `ReleaseOrchestrator` | journal 为真相；快照可重建；UNKNOWN 先对账 |
+| 短期签名与持续授权 | `release_campaign_authorization.CampaignAuthorization` / 原 `SignedApprovalVerifier` | 新控制器注入当前授权读取与发布签名适配；不能将 Task writer broker 当成发布签名方 |
+| 决策与写入互斥 | `task_plane.governance_control_kernel` | 复用 DecisionEngine、ActionLedger、MutationGuard；真实边界优先 |
+| 任务展示与事件 | `task_dashboard_view` / `task_center_api` / 现有 Portal | 只读投影，不直写 Task 表；未知时长和交互数显式未知 |
+| 候选制品 | `scripts/autonomous-release/component_release.py` | 精确 Git 提交打包上述模块、契约和前端；不从未提交工作区取字节 |
+
+原 C6 的认证 worker、原子领取、执行意图回读、WriterLease/CAS、证据签名和
+独立 runtime identity 机制保持在同一分支。发布控制接续不代替这些写入检查。
+
+## 本轮行为变化
+
+控制器通过 `StandingAuthorizationBroker(envelope) -> StandingAuthorizationResult`
+读取当前授权上下文。配置该入口后，每次准备副作用和恢复 effectful worker 前
+都会重新读取生命周期与精确范围，并调用已有 `AutonomousDecisionEngine`。
+缓存中的短签名不能跳过根授权关闭、撤销或 scope 变化。审批仍须通过原
+`SignedApprovalVerifier` 的签名、时效、撤销和精确候选/计划检查。
+
+技术错误、缺配置、未知授权进入 `WAITING_AUTHORITY`；撤销、关闭或取消禁止
+新 effect；只有四类明确 Owner 边界产生人工通知。UNKNOWN effect 优先走原
+Saga 的恢复/对账路径；未查明之前不为新 main 事件生成下一候选。
+
+决策器增加类型化 `DecisionEffectIntent`、`AuthorityDecisionContext` 和
+生命周期/scope 枚举。显式风险边界优先于机制修复，字符串和布尔值不能伪装
+成类型化授权上下文。`FILE_ALLOWLIST_MISSING`、`ACCEPTANCE_REVISION_MISSING`
+和 `TASK_EXPIRED_OWNER_RECOVERY_REQUIRED` 依据实时 scope 分流，不仅凭错误名
+决定问 Owner 或放行。决策输出仅用于路由，不具有签发凭据的能力。
+
+授权规划器沿用 governed writer 的同一份 `RISK_ORDER`，修复新 C5 的
+`engineering` 风险等级被 C6 旧字典误拒绝的问题；未知等级仍拒绝。
+
+Task Center 在既有 router 中提供受同一身份解析器保护的 overview、SSE 和
+poll 读取接口。投影提供任务谱系、当前责任与授权引用字段，人工统计分别记录
+初始请求、追加交互、决策、提供选项和选择提交次数。自动任务事件和系统通知
+不计成人工输入；缺历史覆盖证据时为 `null`，不能从空事件列表推导为 0。
+当前 TaskPlane 列表源只含简要任务记录，不含完整 executor/issuer/授权责任链；
+缺失字段保持未知，完整链路仍需通过正式领域读取补齐，不从浏览器角色反推。
+
+前端使用实体 revision 和续传 cursor，断线显示 STALE，按有界退避重连并
+降级轮询；游标失效后重新读取快照。旧响应和重复事件不能倒退新任务状态。
+原有 GitOps 事件流保留，Task Center 事件仅更新相关任务投影。
+任务卡片保留展开状态及阅读滚动位置。游标按每个任务的持久事件序号续传，
+不使用可能迟到的时间戳作为分页位置；传输容量超限明确报错，不循环重置。
+
+## A26–A31 覆盖与限制
+
+以下是源码与本地验证覆盖，不是完整运行验收 PASS。
+
+| 验收项 | 已实现或复用的本地覆盖 | 仍需的完整验收证据 |
+|---|---|---|
+| A26 恢复缓存 | 原 Saga journal 链校验、截断/篡改拒绝、journal 后快照前崩溃恢复；控制器重启幂等、UNKNOWN 阻断新候选、恢复执行前当前授权检查 | Linux flock、多 Run、旧 worker/fence 以及真实多域 effect 故障注入 |
+| A27 持续授权 | 类型化当前授权入口、每次重新读取、根授权关闭/撤销拒绝、scope 改变、短签名到期/篡改拒绝、原验签保留 | 当前根授权读取器与已登记发布签名方的正式组合；子孙任务/successor、真实撤销竞态与 0 追加交互 |
+| A28 错误分流 | 三种历史错误分别覆盖 in-scope/out-of-scope/unknown；四类明确 Owner 原因；只读诊断可单独路由 | 实际 caller、Task/capability、修复操作及回读绑定 |
+| A29 交互与耗时 | 五类计数、稳定身份去重、冲突/缺历史未知、任务谱系投影；未知耗时不填 0 | 实际输入端生成持久交互证据、完整跨 Mission/Run/attempt 原始起点、计时及预算观测 |
+| A30 混合故障 | 明确 Owner 边界优先于机制故障；重启/缓存不能掩盖关闭或 scope 变化；原执行验签仍强制 | 写边界检查后撤销、进程指纹变化的真实 runtime 故障注入 |
+| A31 事件恢复 | 受权 overview/SSE/poll、cursor 恢复、重复/旧 revision 拒绝、旧连接代次保护、实体更新与 STALE 展示 | 实际服务挂载、鉴权中间件、浏览器与反向代理环境下的续传/切换/历史阅读验收 |
+
+没有新增全局 `current-release.json`、第二套决策器、动作账本或后台服务。
+T00–T07 的主机接线和在线验收不因本地覆盖而自动完成。
+
+## 主机接入契约
+
+1. 发布控制器注入 `StandingAuthorizationBroker`。适配器每次调用读取当前
+   Campaign/Bundle 生命周期、撤销和精确 ReleasePlan scope，并返回带持久
+   evidence refs 的 `AuthorityDecisionContext`。只有 ACTIVE + IN_SCOPE 可调用
+   已登记的发布审批签名方，产生原 ApprovalKeyRing 接受的完整
+   `SignedReleasePlanApproval`。缺少适配器时等待 authority，不创建伪签名。
+2. `OwnerAuthorizationBroker` 是 Task writer 准入，明确拒绝 production/tag/
+   baseline/main 能力；TaskPrincipal 签名属于另一契约，不能替代上述发布审批。
+   `CampaignAuthorization` 读取 campaign 事实但不签发发布审批；Bundle 的
+   epoch 摘要也不具有候选/ReleasePlan 的完整签名语义。本轮没有改变这些边界。
+3. 实际 FastAPI host 挂载 `task_center_api.router` 并调用
+   `configure_task_plane_projection(service, principal_resolver)`。resolver 必须从
+   服务端认证上下文得到 `task_plane_identity`；adapter 通过已有
+   `TaskPlaneService.list_tasks/get_events` 执行领域授权读取。缺失 reader 或
+   resolver 返回 503，领域未认证/无权限分别返回 401/403，不采信浏览器传入的 role/scope。
+4. 当前 repository 没有上述 host 的完整注册调用链。本地 TestClient 可验证
+   router 行为，不能据此声称线上 endpoint、页面或 signer 已部署。
+
+## 验证记录与部署边界
+
+完整 TaskPlane 回归通过 633 项及 17 个子测试；风险等级兼容修复后另补跑
+20 项通过。独立授权/合并范围评审通过 138 项、跳过 1 项 POSIX 检查；其计数
+与其他测试有交集，不能累加为独立用例总数。控制器专项通过 13 项。
+最终发布/视图回归、JavaScript 恢复测试和精确提交制品验证以交付包
+`evidence/` 下各自 JSON、原始日志为准。
+
+Windows 上 Linux `fcntl`、`fork` 与 symlink 权限相关检查，以及依赖外部
+C5 `live-release/staging-source-snapshot` 的测试，应明确记录为未验证。
+不能使用空实现、跳过验签或模拟 POSIX 锁来声称这些检查已经通过。
+控制器逻辑专项的 `PortableLeaderLock` 仅隔离 POSIX 依赖以验证路由，不是锁
+互斥、跨进程并发或生产运行证据；相关实际 POSIX 用例保留为未运行。
+
+真实 authority caller、正式 broker 注册、撤销竞态、Linux 安装／重启／回滚、
+持续后台执行、生产业务验收和上线页面仍需部署环境证据。分钟级发布目标和
+追加交互 0 次是验收目标，本地测试不产生历史耗时或真实交互次数。

+# V2R2C6 两层发布授权补丁
+
+## 目标与范围
+
+在 C6 `faf6eb22898ad5d361824f21dc649527489f16a4` 上补齐持续版本授权与短期执行凭证的组合。沿用 C5/C6 的发布控制器、ReleasePlan、Saga、审批存储、CapabilityLedger 和恢复机制。版本目标不因机器凭证到期而要求重复 Owner 决策；过期执行凭证仍不得执行受保护动作。
+
+本次交付是本地源码补丁与验证证据，不注册生产签名方、不修改生产信任根、不发布受保护分支。此前材料中的历史耗时和空窗为需求背景，本轮不据此声称重新核验过线上状态。
+
+## 设计决策
+
+1. 业务授权由可信 authority reader 读取并验证，绑定版本、仓库、生产范围、授权基线 OID、信任根、能力上限、回滚目标、Mission/Run 和授权代次。生命周期由可信验收关闭、撤销、取消或重大范围变更终止。可配置绝对截止期；3–7 天不是强制重批周期。
+2. 已登记发布签名方派生短期执行凭证，保留原 Ed25519 验签与精确 ReleasePlan 绑定。子凭证签名覆盖父授权和执行者身份。旧直接审批格式保持兼容，不能据此伪装成持续授权子凭证。
+3. 在现有控制器调用链内临用签发、提前刷新；没有第二个定时控制器或动作账本。短期默认值维持现有 verifier 上限内；不批量拉长 promotion epoch、TaskPrincipal 或 WriterLease。
+4. 续发保持同一候选/ReleasePlan/Saga 与动作键，变更 nonce、签发时间、到期时间和签名。存储替换有并发控制和预期旧指纹约束，旧 worker 不能覆盖新凭证。已执行动作不可因续发再次执行；未知副作用先对账。
+5. 新候选摘要可以变化，但须通过可信 successor/lineage 校验，并获得新的精确绑定凭证。新范围、信任根、授权基线不允许静默迁移。
+6. 每次签发与实际副作用前检查当前根授权。单进程检查不能替代远端写入 CAS/fence；主机接入必须在写边界兑现撤销代次和执行 fencing。
+7. 凭证过期或 authority 暂不可用仅阻断对应写入。只读诊断、状态查询和安全恢复入口不应依赖有效执行 token 才能启动。读取器、签名方在调用时工作，不在模块导入时读取短期凭证。
+
+## 实施分工与顺序
+
+- 持续授权模块：严格类型化当前授权及执行范围，可信谱系校验，fresh 子凭证派生，刷新窗口，当前授权检查。
+- 原审批/执行模块：签名绑定的兼容扩展，安全续发存储，稳定动作身份，执行前授权检查。
+- 控制器组合：注入正式 broker，状态和恢复沿用原 Saga；完成包组件清单与接入说明。
+- 独立验证：多次到期、重启、撤销竞态、越界、未知结果、并行领取/刷新、签名篡改和兼容回归；生成固定 Git 提交对应的补丁、bundle、摘要和验证记录。
+
+## 验收与证据边界
+
+验收必须区分：本地模型/契约测试、现有服务集成测试、打包导入验证、主机正式接入与在线生产验收。局部测试不代表线上持续授权已生效。最终运行结果随补丁包的 `evidence/final-regression.json`、日志和独立审查记录交付。
+
+## 已实现的组合接口
+
+`silent_release_execution.compose_standing_release_controller` 接受现有 `SilentReleaseActionService`，注入两个可信 reader 和一个已登记 signer，安装实际执行入口的 guard，返回原 `PersistentSilentReleaseController`。
+
+| 参数/接口 | 责任与边界 |
+|---|---|
+| `authority_reader() -> StandingReleaseAuthorization` | 验证并读取当前业务授权。返回真实 Owner 身份、允许的 actor 集合、授权代次/摘要、版本/仓库、稳定生产范围、基线/信任根、谱系根、Mission/Run、生命周期及可信验收状态。必须来自正式 authority，不接受请求体构造的授权。 |
+| `execution_scope_reader(envelope) -> ReleaseExecutionScope` | 验证实际 actor、Mission/Run、当前候选、ReleasePlan、根候选和 predecessor/successor 证据，以及已对账的 effect 状态。正式任务谱系读取器须验证继承关系；仅填写摘要不是证明。 |
+| `signer.key_id`、`signer.sign(unsigned_approval)` | 使用已登记发布签名身份，仅给完整待签载荷添加签名；服务继续用原 `ApprovalKeyRing` 和验签器核对。生产模式拒绝显式 test-only signer。 |
+| `execution_ttl_seconds=1200` | 发布执行凭证默认 20 分钟，允许范围不超过现有一小时验签上限，实际还受 verifier 配置和父授权剩余有效期约束。 |
+| `renewal_margin_seconds=120` | 剩余两分钟时可提前签发；已经到期时，在核验旧凭证真实性、当前根授权和动作状态后也可恢复续发。 |
+| `broker.check_current(approval, capability, operation)` | 重新读取当前根授权与精确范围，验签并检查当前有效期。实际执行还叠加存储中最新凭证指纹检查，不能用“续发”操作名绕过。 |
+
+调用链：
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    A[可信版本授权 reader] --> B[StandingReleaseAuthorizationBroker]
+    L[可信 Task / lineage / effect reader] --> B
+    P[原 Candidate 与 ReleasePlan 存储] --> B
+    B --> S[已登记发布 signer]
+    S --> V[原 SignedApprovalVerifier]
+    V --> C[原审批存储 CAS 轮换]
+    C --> R[原控制器与 Saga 恢复]
+    R --> G[当前根授权 + 最新凭证 + 原动作 claim]
+    G --> E[切换 / 回滚 / tag / registry / baseline]
+```
+
+Owner 与 actor 分开记录。一个业务授权可以预先列出多个允许的 agent，每份子凭证仍绑定具体 actor；对同一动作续发不能更换 actor 或放宽能力。不同任务可以并行，同一动作由原 ledger/claim 互斥。跨 actor 的接管需要正式 Task/谱系授权，不能靠更换 nonce 隐式接管。
+
+新字段 `SignedReleasePlanApproval.authorization_binding` 存在时纳入签名载荷。旧直接审批不包含该字段，旧 canonical payload 保持原样。持续授权模式的存储续发只允许时效字段、nonce 和签名更新；签名身份、Owner、actor、父授权、候选和 ReleasePlan 等执行绑定必须一致。正常续发不重置 Saga、不清空 ledger、不重记 Mission/Run 起点。
+
+组合接口启用持续授权模式后，所有实际执行入口均要求父授权绑定，缓存的旧式直接审批不能绕过 broker 经服务入口执行。未启用该模式的既有直接审批流程继续兼容。底层控制器分别要求当前根授权和当前子凭证检查；仅注入其中一个不能放行绑定凭证。
+
+回滚也通过原 CapabilityLedger 领取稳定动作执行权。多个进程恢复同一个 `ROLLBACK_PENDING` 时不会直接重复调用回滚 adapter；结果未知时必须先通过可信只读 probe 对账，没有 probe 时保持阻断。回滚权限、当前根授权与最新子凭证检查仍然适用。
+
+## 失败分流与恢复
+
+| 观察到的状态 | 自动处理 |
+|---|---|
+| 当前根授权有效，子凭证即将/已经过期，effect 已知 | 在原授权范围内 fresh 签发、原存储 CAS 接替；不生成追加 Owner 通知。 |
+| reader/signer 暂不可用或授权状态未知 | `WAITING_AUTHORITY`，保留现有任务与恢复状态；不把技术故障包装为 Owner 决策。 |
+| 根授权撤销、取消、关闭或可信验收已完成 | 拒绝后续副作用，仍可读取状态；旧子凭证即使未到期也不覆盖根授权终止。 |
+| 版本、仓库、信任根、生产边界或能力确实越界 | 拒绝相关副作用，交给已有 Owner 边界分流。不能自动扩大父授权。 |
+| 新候选摘要变化但谱系及稳定目标范围符合授权 | 派生新的精确候选凭证；不沿用旧候选签名。 |
+| effect 为 UNKNOWN | 禁止靠续发重放动作；先通过正式只读对账获得可信结果。 |
+| 新旧 agent/进程同时续发或领取同一动作 | OS 文件锁与 expected-fingerprint CAS 序列化更新；动作键跨凭证轮换保持稳定，已执行结果仍幂等。 |
+
+凭证过期不应成为 API 进程能否启动的条件。本补丁修复的是本地发布服务 `serve_shadow` 初次轮询异常处理：使用与后续轮询相同的 fail-closed 状态记录，保持 GET 诊断可用。这不等于已修复或验证历史服务器 `/v2/` 冷启动故障；该服务器的实际启动接线仍需单独核查。
+
+## 凭证命名空间与上线条件
+
+本补丁提供可运行的发布审批派生与续发组合，不把所有凭证合并到一个签名器。TaskPrincipal/WriterLease 沿用其已有短租约、续租和 claim 机制；promotion epoch、source admission/source-publication policy 的正式签发入口及撤销规则由其 authority 负责。不会把发布审批签名当作这些命名空间的凭据，也没有修改它们的全局 TTL。后续主机组合应把同一已验证业务授权传给各自正式 issuer，并分别验收。
+
+主机接入必须提供：
+
+1. 具有签名验证、当前撤销/关闭读取能力的 authority reader，以及可验证谱系、actor 与未知 effect 对账状态的 scope reader。数据类类型校验不替代密码学验证。
+2. 与现有发布 `ApprovalKeyRing` 一致的已登记签名方；这里不创建私钥、不自动登记信任根、不使用 Task writer 签名冒充发布审批。
+3. 执行者与任务/租约身份的正式绑定，以及外部写入端的授权代次、CAS/fence。进程内“检查后再调用”仍存在最后一次检查后的撤销竞态，只有实际写入端可以原子拒绝旧代次。
+4. 可信 Production Acceptance 事件写入原 authority 生命周期并使 reader 返回关闭；关闭后回滚需要仍有效且明确覆盖回滚的授权，不能复用已结束的业务授权。
+5. 本地文件锁只覆盖共享同一锁文件的进程；多主机需原正式资源锁/CAS，不能将 Windows/POSIX 本地并发测试等同于分布式互斥证据。
+
+上述主机条件缺失时保持 fail closed。本地补丁交付完成与生产无人值守验收是两个不同状态。
