0. Status and non-authorization

STATUS: PASS — engineering / decision-prep. Suggests Macro-4's deliverable scale, anti-fragmentation. Engineering PASS ≠ authority PASS. Default: HOLD.

1. Purpose

Right-size Macro-4 so it stays one coherent macro (no fragmentation, no mega-deliverable).

2. Sources / evidence read

Macro-2 next-macro3 scope plan (45→ this prompt set 60); prompt MANDATORY PREAMBLE. Main process, no reader-agents.

3. Accepted baseline (carried)

Scale at the orchestration layer (count), not coupling; every deliverable independently reviewable/replaceable/discardable. Note: Macro-2 forecast a 45-file Macro-3; the live Owner-delegate prompt superseded it with exactly 60 + Option-D.

4. Evidence / analysis

Macro-4 (if B-A) covers two design-only surfaces: staging build readiness + actual-B2-TD entry gate. Each decomposes into independent LEGO files (readiness obligations, no-prod-touch, delete-fast, bad-input oracle design, promotion firewall, entry-gate map, proof obligations, locks, review/handoff).

5. Recommendation / matrix / result

Recommend a Macro-4 scale in the ~40–70 deliverable band (matching the established growth curve), split across: staging-readiness group, TD-entry-gate group, proof/oracle group, locks group, review/handoff group. No mega-deliverable. Exact count set by the Owner-delegate prompt at launch.

6. Owner-gated future work

Macro-4 scope/launch is Owner-gated; forbidden now.

7. What remains unresolved

Macro-4 not scoped to final count; conditional on B-A.

8. Ready for GPT/Codex review

Yes — Codex should flag if any proposed Macro-4 group risks becoming a mega-deliverable.
