+# Codex task: apply and verify AIOS Orchestrator Gateway v1
+
+Contract: `cbe33ecab8e9794ba5f318bea43aeaf447a56fbc`
+
+Use the strongest actually available Codex model for the initial security review.
+If unavailable or timed out, record TIMEOUT/NOT_EXECUTED and let OpenClaw run
+the deterministic test path. Do not count a timeout as PASS.
+
+## Apply
+
+1. Create a new clean append-only branch and isolated worktree.
+2. Validate the delivery tarball and `SHA256SUMS`.
+3. Run the external `scripts/apply_gateway_patch.sh` with `SOURCE_DIR` and
+   `WORKTREE`; do not alter unrelated paths.
+4. Review all added code, especially:
+   - exact contract and optimistic state-version checks;
+   - event/decision idempotency;
+   - SQLite leases and retry behavior;
+   - Workspace Agent `202` asynchronous callback flow;
+   - Responses background creation and polling;
+   - file-inbox and Git-ref polling;
+   - traversal/symlink protections;
+   - OpenClaw lifecycle synchronization;
+   - systemd sandbox;
+   - install and rollback transactions.
+
+## Tests
+
+Run from the final source tree:
+
+- Python compile for all gateway and helper files;
+- unit tests;
+- JSON schema/config parsing;
+- Bash syntax;
+- `systemd-analyze verify`;
+- event duplicate and payload-conflict tests;
+- stale state-version rejection;
+- lease/double-claim test;
+- Workspace trigger failure and Responses fallback;
+- response queued/in-progress/completed polling;
+- file-inbox recovery after HTTP failure;
+- Git-ref initial baseline and subsequent-change event;
+- task start/end and project summary synchronization;
+- dispatch traversal and symlink rejection;
+- retry/backoff/dead-letter;
+- install dry-run;
+- rollback test in an isolated fixture;
+- `git diff --check`;
+- full repository tests;
+- final Gitleaks.
+
+## Commit and review
+
+1. Create an append-only implementation commit.
+2. Push without force.
+3. Confirm `WORKTREE_OID == BARE_OID == GITEA_OID`.
+4. Create an independent RESULT-only branch and exact-one result commit.
+5. Record the source bundle SHA-256, implementation OID, RESULT OID, tests,
+   Gitleaks, systemd validation and remaining external configuration blockers.
+
+## Forbidden
+
+No reset, amend, rebase, force push, direct main push, controller mutation,
+secret disclosure, fabricated test result, production deployment or B3 evidence
+fabrication.
+
+Success:
+
+`GATEWAY_CODE_REVIEW=PASS IMPLEMENTATION=<oid> RESULT=<oid> OID_MATCH=YES`

+# OpenClaw A0 Three-Party Self-Healing and Release Supervision
+
+CONTRACT_ACK=cbe33ecab8e9794ba5f318bea43aeaf447a56fbc
+
+## Mission
+
+Close the GPT/OpenClaw/Codex unattended loop before any main merge or production release. OpenClaw is the default state writer and long-running supervisor, but work may be reassigned dynamically under the shared contract.
+
+## Authoritative inputs
+
+- Governance contract: `cbe33ecab8e9794ba5f318bea43aeaf447a56fbc`
+- Governance dispatch head before this task: `9195470ceb78fd57ffface3dcc38f40b75efa9d8`
+- Gateway integration implementation: `c3984ca2b4388875d2875b4fdfdf95a2984f6ab3`
+- Gateway integration RESULT: `4e63b1559aa3fc07b1384154c97b2c90b84353ed`
+- Three-party self-healer candidate branch: `patch/a0-three-party-self-healing-20260718-20260718T043256`
+- Production baseline: `V1R4C6`
+- Release status: `paused`
+
+## Priority invariant
+
+Continuously evaluate exactly three parties:
+
+1. `central_gpt` — Orchestrator Gateway plus a valid Workspace Agent or Responses API decision channel.
+2. `openclaw` — OpenClaw watcher, lifecycle sync, durable task execution and heartbeat.
+3. `codex` — Codex watcher, auto-claim, lifecycle sync, durable task execution and heartbeat.
+
+When exactly two parties are HEALTHY and the third is explicitly UNHEALTHY, create a P0 repair work unit for the unique unhealthy party before every other task. UNKNOWN is not UNHEALTHY and must fail closed. Do not repair when fewer than two are healthy or any health result is ambiguous.
+
+## A0-SH1: supervise implementation completion
+
+Codex owns the high-risk code changes. Independently verify that the final implementation contains:
+
+- strict root-owned configuration validation and no symlink chain;
+- fixed built-in party adapters rather than arbitrary untrusted repair commands;
+- bounded stdout/stderr redaction so tokens and secrets cannot enter audit logs;
+- exclusive lease, cooldown, circuit breaker and stale lease recovery;
+- event trigger plus periodic polling;
+- OpenClaw lifecycle events: `TASK_DISPATCHED`, `TASK_STARTED`, `TASK_ENDED`, `DECISION_APPLIED`, `PROJECT_SUMMARY`, `PROJECT_COMPLETED`;
+- durable file outbox fallback when HTTP callback is unavailable;
+- systemd service and timer;
+- health and repair adapters for central GPT, OpenClaw and Codex;
+- install, verify and rollback scripts;
+- deterministic tests for all health combinations and failures.
+
+Reject the current candidate if it only contains `automation/three_party_self_healer.py` without these controls.
+
+## A0-SH2: live three-party validation
+
+After Codex implementation RESULT passes, deploy only to a non-production acceptance context and run:
+
+1. All-three healthy steady state for at least three poll intervals.
+2. GPT unhealthy while OpenClaw and Codex healthy: GPT repair becomes P0 and recovers.
+3. OpenClaw unhealthy while GPT and Codex healthy: OpenClaw repair becomes P0 and recovers.
+4. Codex unhealthy while GPT and OpenClaw healthy: Codex repair becomes P0 and recovers.
+5. One healthy plus two unhealthy: no repair; fail closed.
+6. Any UNKNOWN health: no repair; fail closed.
+7. Repair timeout: retry with backoff, then circuit open.
+8. Service restart: state, lease and pending work recover.
+9. HTTP event path unavailable: file inbox polling recovers.
+10. Git webhook unavailable: Git ref polling detects change.
+11. Duplicate event ID: no duplicate dispatch.
+12. Main Workspace Agent channel unavailable: Responses fallback takes over only with a valid approved credential.
+13. OpenClaw receives every task start/end and project summary notification.
+14. Two consecutive unattended decision/execution/result cycles complete with no chat message or manual dispatch.
+
+Do not use dummy API keys or environment-variable presence as proof of a valid central decision channel.
+
+## A0-SH3: authoritative closure
+
+Only after independent verification of the above create one append-only state update and an exact-one RESULT file. Required output:
+

+
+Any missing item keeps `AUTOMATION_CLOSED=NO`.
+
+## Release continuation
+
+After and only after `AUTOMATION_CLOSED=PASS`, automatically resume the governed release sequence:
+
+1. Real B3 evidence intake and independent review.
+2. B4 implementation and validation.
+3. Full integration, regression, security and migration tests.
+4. Normal PR/GitOps merge to main; never direct-push main.
+5. Immutable release artifact, digest, SBOM and signature.
+6. Staging and rollback exercise.
+7. Canary and monitoring validation.
+8. Owner/admin GitOps production deployment using existing approved release controls.
+9. Production smoke tests and production RESULT-only commit.
+
+External facts that cannot be fabricated — real WeChat credentials/raw-wire, valid secret references and owner-only release approval — remain fail-closed blockers. The loop must monitor them and resume automatically when they become available.

+# OpenClaw task: deploy and supervise AIOS Orchestrator Gateway v1
+
+Contract: `cbe33ecab8e9794ba5f318bea43aeaf447a56fbc`
+
+You are the default orchestrator and deployment supervisor.
+
+## Preconditions
+
+- Codex has applied and independently reviewed this source bundle on a clean,
+  append-only branch.
+- Implementation and RESULT OIDs are identical across worktree, bare repo and
+  Gitea.
+- Final Gitleaks and repository tests are PASS.
+- No force push, reset, amend or rebase occurred.
+
+## Responsibilities
+
+1. Validate the source bundle SHA-256 and `SHA256SUMS`.
+2. Review the generated systemd service, poll timer, tmpfiles and sysusers files.
+3. Install through `scripts/install_aios_orchestrator_gateway.sh`.
+4. Configure one or both central-model channels:
+   - published Workspace Agent API channel with `agtch_...` trigger ID and a
+     Workspace Agent access token stored outside Git; or
+   - Responses API fallback with an approved model and API key stored outside Git.
+5. Publish the callback endpoint securely and configure the Workspace Agent
+   action from `workspace-agent/orchestrator-decision-action.openapi.yaml`.
+6. Confirm that the Workspace Agent instructions match
+   `workspace-agent/CENTRAL_AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md`.
+7. Enable both:
+   - the continuously running gateway service;
+   - the independent `aios-orchestrator-gateway-poll.timer`.
+8. Verify HTTP event ingestion, file-inbox polling, Git-ref polling,
+   Workspace Agent trigger acceptance, callback decision, Responses background
+   polling fallback, dispatch queue generation, retry leases and loop guards.
+9. Verify OpenClaw receives and synchronizes:
+   - TASK_DISPATCHED
+   - TASK_STARTED
+   - TASK_ENDED
+   - PROJECT_SUMMARY
+   - PROJECT_COMPLETED
+10. Run a harmless bootstrap work unit through OpenClaw and Codex and confirm
+    duplicate event submission is idempotent.
+11. Run rollback, reinstall and heartbeat/health verification.
+12. Create one RESULT-only review recording exact commits, artifact digest,
+    tests, systemd security, polling recovery, lifecycle synchronization and
+    rollback.
+
+## Fail-closed boundaries
+
+- Do not put Workspace Agent tokens, API keys, callback tokens or gateway
+  credentials in Git, logs, command arguments or RESULT files.
+- Do not claim the gateway resolves the existing B3 credential/raw-wire blocker.
+- Do not advance B4 or production merely because this gateway is healthy.
+- Do not bypass owner/admin production release approvals.
+- Do not use reset, amend, rebase, force push, direct main push or bare-ref edits.
+
+## Required final status
+
+Success:
+
+`ORCHESTRATOR_GATEWAY_LIVE=PASS POLLING=PASS OPENCLAW_SYNC=PASS ROLLBACK=PASS`
+
+Blocker:
+
+`ORCHESTRATOR_GATEWAY_LIVE=BLOCKED reason=<stable_reason>`

+# AIOS Codex automatic command watcher
+
+The watcher polls the governed `commands/active` queue without a chat trigger. It uses SQLite transactions for exclusive leases, records the exact command digest, rejects contract drift, retries transient failures, dead-letters exhausted work, and resumes from the last durable phase so an end-event retry does not execute a work unit twice.
+
+Commands are JSON documents validated by `schemas/codex-command.schema.json`. `acceptance_probe` is the only built-in action and has no external side effect. Production `codex` work requires an administrator-provisioned absolute executor path; the instruction is passed on standard input, never argv or environment. The executor receives a sanitized environment and must obtain credentials through its approved file or exec provider. If the executor is absent, the task fails closed and follows the retry/dead-letter policy.
+
+The watcher provides at-most-once execution. It writes the `EXECUTING` phase before launching an external executor; if the host dies after an external effect but before a result is durably recorded, recovery does not replay the work and instead dead-letters the ambiguity for human review. Start and end event JSON is persisted before transmission, so response-loss retries reuse the exact event ID and payload and are deduplicated by the Gateway.
+
+Lifecycle evidence is appended to `/var/log/aios-codex-watcher/audit.jsonl` as `CODEX_AUTO_CLAIM`, `TASK_STARTED`, `TASK_EXECUTED`, `TASK_ENDED`, and `EVENT_POSTED`. Inputs, tokens, stdout, and stderr are not logged; only result digests are retained.
+
+Install from a reviewed commit with `sudo scripts/install_aios_codex_watcher.sh`. The installer creates a content-addressed release, atomically updates `current`, writes a receipt, and enables the five-second systemd timer. The existing Gateway inbound token file is referenced in place and never copied.

+# AIOS Orchestrator Gateway v0.2
+
+This component turns the current passive GPT orchestration pattern into a
+durable, unattended loop:
+
+```text
+Gitea/OpenClaw/Codex event
+  -> HTTP event endpoint or polled file inbox
+  -> durable SQLite state machine
+  -> Workspace Agent API trigger
+  -> strict callback decision
+  -> Responses API background fallback and polling
+  -> OpenClaw/Codex dispatch queues
+  -> start/end/result events
+  -> next orchestration cycle
+```
+
+## Reliability mechanisms
+
+The gateway does not depend on one timer, webhook or model call:
+
+- HTTP event ingestion.
+- Periodic file-inbox polling for missed webhooks and offline producers.
+- Local bare-Git ref polling for `main`, governance, patch and result refs.
+- Workspace Agent retries with a stable event `Idempotency-Key`.
+- Workspace Agent callback timeout and Responses API background fallback.
+- Responses status polling until completion or fail-closed terminal status.
+- SQLite optimistic state versions, idempotency records and processing leases.
+- Exponential retry with a maximum retry count and dead-letter state.
+- Same-blocker and maximum-hop guards to stop non-progress loops.
+- A systemd timer runs `--poll-once` as an independent reliability watchdog.
+
+Workspace Agent trigger runs are asynchronous and do not expose a retrievable
+final response. The central Workspace Agent must therefore call the
+`submit_orchestration_decision` action.
+
+## OpenClaw synchronization
+
+Every lifecycle stage is durably written to the OpenClaw synchronization queue:
+
+- `TASK_DISPATCHED`
+- `TASK_STARTED`
+- `TASK_ENDED`
+- `DECISION_APPLIED`
+- `PROJECT_SUMMARY`
+- `PROJECT_COMPLETED`
+
+An optional authenticated OpenClaw HTTP endpoint can receive the same records.
+A failed HTTP delivery remains in the lifecycle retry queue. OpenClaw remains
+the default project-status synchronizer and authoritative progress presenter.
+
+## Agent execution contract
+
+Each dispatched JSON envelope contains:
+
+- exact contract commit;
+- source event;
+- clean base commit;
+- primary and fallback agent;
+- allowed paths;
+- required checks;
+- forbidden operations;
+- completion event callback format.
+
+OpenClaw and Codex must send a `work_unit_started` event before execution and a
+`work_unit_completed`, `work_unit_blocked`, or `work_unit_failed` event when
+they stop. This guarantees that OpenClaw can synchronize every task start,
+finish, and overall project summary.
+
+## Security
+
+- Model and callback credentials are read only from root-owned secret files.
+- Credentials never enter Git, dispatch payloads or logs.
+- The gateway runs as a dedicated unprivileged user.
+- Dispatch and sync paths are protected against traversal and symlink targets.
+- All state changes require the exact contract commit and current state version.
+- Production evidence, credentials and approvals stay fail-closed.
+- Git history operations remain controlled by the committed governance contract.
+
+## Deployment sequence
+
+1. Apply this source bundle to a clean append-only branch.
+2. Run unit, repository, shell, JSON, systemd and Gitleaks checks.
+3. Configure one or both model channels:
+   - published Workspace Agent API channel and Workspace Agent access token;
+   - Responses API key and approved fallback model.
+4. Publish the decision callback as a Workspace Agent action or MCP tool.
+5. Install the service through `scripts/install_aios_orchestrator_gateway.sh`.
+6. Run `scripts/verify_aios_orchestrator_gateway.sh`.
+7. Submit a harmless event and verify:
+   - trigger acceptance;
+   - strict decision callback;
+   - dispatch file;
+   - OpenClaw task-start/task-end/project-summary synchronization;
+   - duplicate idempotency;
+   - polling recovery after suppressing the HTTP webhook.
+
+The installer copies an explicit gateway-only allowlist into a release directory
+named by its SHA-256 digest, atomically updates `/opt/aios-orchestrator-gateway/current`,
+and persists `/var/lib/aios-orchestrator-gateway/install-receipt.json` with the
+current and previous release. `--dry-run` performs source validation and emits
+`AIOS_ORCHESTRATOR_INSTALL_DRY_RUN=PASS` without changing installed state.
+
+Rollback reads that root-owned `0600` receipt, verifies both release directory
+names and `SOURCE_DIGEST` files, coordinates the gateway and poll units, and
+atomically switches `current` to the previous release. Repeating the same
+rollback is a no-op and emits `NOOP_ALREADY_ROLLED_BACK`.

+# AIOS GPT + one-executor automation quorum
+
+## Authority and release boundary
+
+The Gateway is the only authoritative state writer. It must hold the SQLite writer lease before changing task state. A model response, service process, configured credential, or agent presence does not establish health. Release remains paused until all live acceptance rows are backed by logs and exit codes.
+
+Minimum quorum:
+
+```text
+central_gpt=HEALTHY AND (openclaw=HEALTHY OR codex=HEALTHY)
+```
+
+`UNKNOWN` never counts as healthy. If one executor is proven healthy, an unhealthy or unknown standby is P3 telemetry only and cannot block the active gate. If no executor is proven healthy, the controller blocks. Central GPT `UNKNOWN` or `UNHEALTHY` always blocks.
+
+## Live health receipts
+
+The controller reads three root-owned metadata-only JSON receipts from `/run/aios-health`. Files must be regular files, must not be symlinks, and neither files nor parent directories may be group/world writable. The controller rejects fields named `secret`, `token`, `password`, `api_key`, `authorization`, `credential`, `private_key`, `environment`, `env`, `argv`, `stdout`, or `stderr` at any depth.
+
+A receipt claiming `HEALTHY` must contain:
+
+```json
+{
+  "subject": "codex",
+  "health": "HEALTHY",
+  "live_probe_succeeded": true,
+  "observed_at_epoch": 1784347200
+}
+```
+
+The central GPT receipt additionally requires either `workspace_agent.validated_live=true` or `responses_api.validated_live=true`. Responses fallback is allowed only after a real Responses decision probe succeeded; credential/configuration presence is insufficient.
+
+The controller and probes use only the fixed loopback endpoint
+`http://127.0.0.1:18920/v1/orchestrator/events`. The bearer is read from
+`/etc/aios-orchestrator-gateway/inbound.token`; the file must be absolute,
+root-owned, regular, non-symlinked, no wider than `0640`, nonempty, and contain
+no CR/LF. It is never accepted through argv, environment, logs, receipts, or
+Git. HTTP `401`, `403`, `409`, and `422` are terminal fail-closed results for a
+probe attempt.
+
+The authenticated metadata query
+`GET /v1/orchestrator/events/<event_id>` returns only the event ID, public
+status, selected central channel, whether the decision was applied, and the
+resulting state version. It never returns the submitted event, model output,
+credential, or work-unit instruction.
+
+## Durable behavior
+
+SQLite persists ingress event digests, optimistic task state versions, leases, checkpoints, lifecycle events, effect IDs, outbox messages, blocker counts, observed Git refs, and project summaries. Reusing an event/effect/outbox ID with different content fails closed. An expired lease may be reclaimed; a live lease cannot be stolen.
+
+On active-executor failure, a healthy standby receives the same `contract_commit`, `event_id`, state version, and checkpoint. The former executor is recorded as `INTERRUPTED_AGENT_FAILOVER`. Unique effect IDs prevent replay of completed side effects.
+
+The Gateway persists these events even when OpenClaw is offline:
+
+```text
+TASK_DISPATCHED
+TASK_STARTED
+TASK_ENDED
+DECISION_APPLIED
+PROJECT_SUMMARY
+PROJECT_COMPLETED
+```
+
+OpenClaw mirroring is optional and uses the durable outbox with bounded retry and dead-letter. HTTP ingress failure spools a metadata-only file for polling; the configured local Git refs are also polled and changes missed by webhooks become idempotent events. Repeated blockers beyond the configured threshold enter `DEAD_LETTER`.
+
+## Install, verify, and rollback
+
+Installation is versioned and does not overwrite an existing release:
+
+```bash
+sudo scripts/install_automation_quorum_controller.sh "$PWD" 20260718.1
+sudo systemctl enable --now aios-automation-quorum-controller.timer
+sudo systemctl enable --now aios-central-gpt-health-probe.timer
+sudo systemctl enable --now aios-codex-executor-health-probe.timer
+```
+
+Run deterministic verification before enablement:
+
+```bash
+scripts/verify_automation_quorum_controller.sh "$PWD"
+```
+
+The two root probes are fixed, bounded, side-effect-free programs. They write
+receipts atomically with mode `0600` below the root-owned `0750`
+`/run/aios-health`. The Codex probe may write only one `acceptance_probe`
+command into the controlled watcher queue; it cannot accept arbitrary command
+text from configuration.
+
+Run the strict two-cycle closure only after both services are installed from an
+immutable committed release:
+
+```bash
+sudo /opt/aios-automation-quorum/current/bin/a0-unattended-loop-probe \
+  --config /etc/aios-automation-quorum/health-probes.json
+```
+
+Each cycle requires a live central decision that dispatches the named Codex
+acceptance work unit through the Gateway. The verifier then requires exactly
+one claim/start/execute/end/post marker, both lifecycle events in the Gateway,
+and a persisted `PROJECT_SUMMARY`. Directly queuing a command cannot satisfy
+this two-cycle closure.
+
+Rollback accepts only an existing non-symlink directory below `/opt/aios-automation-quorum/releases`. Repeating rollback to the current target is a no-op:
+
+```bash
+sudo scripts/rollback_automation_quorum_controller.sh \
+  /opt/aios-automation-quorum/releases/20260718.0
+```
+
+## Live acceptance matrix
+
+Each row requires captured logs, timestamps, exit codes, committed OIDs, Gitleaks output, and where applicable live Gateway DB evidence. Static unit tests are necessary but cannot close the gate.
+
+1. GPT + OpenClaw healthy, Codex stopped: two unattended cycles.
+2. GPT + Codex healthy, OpenClaw stopped: two unattended cycles.
+3. Both executors healthy: OpenClaw gets repetitive infrastructure; Codex gets complex code/security.
+4. Active stops mid-task: standby continues from checkpoint with no duplicate effect.
+5. Standby alone stops: active flow continues and no repair gate is created.
+6. GPT stops: execution blocks even with two healthy executors.
+7. GPT healthy and both executors stop: `BLOCKED_NO_HEALTHY_EXECUTOR`.
+8. `UNKNOWN` is never counted as healthy.
+9. HTTP ingress failure recovers through file polling.
+10. Missed webhook recovers through Git ref polling.
+11. Gateway restart restores events, leases, and outbox.
+12. Repeated event ID does not create a second dispatch; changed payload dead-letters.
+13. Repeated blocker beyond threshold dead-letters.
+14. Workspace Agent failure falls back only with a live-validated Responses channel.
+15. OpenClaw offline: Codex lifecycle and project summary remain complete in Gateway.
+16. Codex offline: OpenClaw lifecycle and project summary remain complete in Gateway.
+
+Until all rows pass against the live service, retain:
+
+```text
+AUTOMATION_CLOSED=NOT_STARTED
+BASELINE=V1R4C6
+RELEASE=paused
+PRODUCTION_RELEASE=NOT_STARTED
+```

+# A0 callback transport and pending-decision recovery
+
+This runbook separates code acceptance from live callback acceptance. Passing
+unit tests does not prove that a cloud Workspace Agent can reach the installed
+tool endpoint.
+
+## Transport configuration
+
+Choose exactly one mode in the owner-managed remote-tool configuration:
+
+- `remote_https_action`: `endpoint` must be the real public HTTPS Action URL.
+- `secure_mcp_tunnel`: `endpoint` must exactly match an entry in
+  `approved_mcp_tunnel_endpoints`.
+
+The configuration stores only `access_secret_ref` and `callback_secret_ref`.
+It must not contain resolved credentials. Startup rejects HTTP, loopback,
+unspecified/private literal addresses, URL credentials, query/fragment data,
+unapproved tunnel endpoints, and known placeholder markers.
+
+Generate the cloud-facing manifest only after owner configuration exists:
+
+```bash
+PYTHONPATH=/opt/aios-orchestrator-gateway/current \
+python3 /opt/aios-orchestrator-gateway/current/scripts/generate_orchestrator_tool_manifest.py \
+  --transport-config /etc/aios-orchestrator-gateway/remote-tool.json \
+  --output /var/lib/aios-orchestrator-gateway/orchestrator-tool-manifest.json
+```
+
+The generated Action manifest exposes only
+`submit_orchestration_decision`. The MCP manifest lists the same single tool
+with write-side-effect and idempotency annotations.
+
+## Recovery
+
+Plan mode is read-only:
+
+```bash
+PYTHONPATH=/opt/aios-orchestrator-gateway/current \
+python3 /opt/aios-orchestrator-gateway/current/scripts/recover_pending_decisions.py \
+  --config /etc/aios-orchestrator-gateway/config.json --plan
+```
+
+Application handles at most one leased record and never resends a model prompt
+or replays a decision:
+
+```bash
+PYTHONPATH=/opt/aios-orchestrator-gateway/current \
+python3 /opt/aios-orchestrator-gateway/current/scripts/recover_pending_decisions.py \
+  --config /etc/aios-orchestrator-gateway/config.json --apply-one
+```
+
+## Required live acceptance
+
+Do not mark the live Gate PASS until metadata-only evidence proves, in order:
+
+1. Workspace trigger returned HTTP 202.
+2. The remote callback tool received one authenticated request.
+3. The bridge returned HTTP 202 from the loopback 18920 decision endpoint.
+4. The event reached `DECIDED`, `callback_state=APPLIED`, and
+   `decision_applied=true`.
+5. Recovery planning and one apply cycle did not create a second outbox side
+   effect for the same event.
+
+Never include Authorization, token values, resolved SecretRefs, prompts, or raw
+model output in logs or RESULT files.
