FIX7 Authority Seal Rejected by Codex — Current State

• Date: 2026-06-10
• Current status: CODEX_FIX7_AUTHORITY_REJECT
• Production mutation: NO

State

• Engineering basis remains PASS and unchanged.
• Owner supplied sufficient authorization for the limited blueprint seal review/act.
• No N7, N8, or P7 seal was authored.
• Canonicalizer rev3 49c386a9b9666c09786fc4f89bc79776b6046eaee6f4da6d8537d2c753b734d0 @ revision 3 / 38756 bytes remains an engineering-verified candidate, not an official authority pin.
• Packet V3 tree b95df0a5d2f41f80bea0cef8621c1f8bb0f6b49a40175116418494ed4141ca6d remains an engineering-verified candidate.

True blockers

The authority closure packet lacks executable byte-exact N7/N8/P7 seal contracts. It also instructs N7 to bind N8 even though the authoritative DAG makes N8 depend on N7. This is cyclic and not sealable.

Boundary

FIX7 implementation remains blocked. No production mutation, PG/Directus/registry/system_issues mutation, REAL_RUN, QT001 apply, permit, activation, repoint, cutover, registries-pivot, or auto-birth repair is authorized.

Next

T1 should repair only the authority-seal contract layer: enact executable byte-exact N7/N8/P7 encoders/rosters and an acyclic order consistent with the authority DAG, then route a corrected closure packet to Codex. Do not redo the Packet V3 engineering work unless a new engineering contradiction appears.
