Date: 2026-06-23 Macro: T2 APR APPROVAL CHANNEL DISCOVERY AND MINIMAL DOT BOOTSTRAP Scope: Find or stage the smallest legal channel for real president/ai_council approval of APR-0415. Mode: Read-only investigation + design-only staging. 0 governed writes. before==after.

VERDICT

APR_APPROVAL_CHANNEL_HOLD_PRIMITIVE_MISSING_DOT_APR_APPROVE_REQUIRED

Co-hold (deployment dimension): APR_APPROVAL_CHANNEL_HOLD_BOOTSTRAP_REQUIRES_QUORUM

No existing lawful, identity-bound, proposer-excluding, audited channel exists for a real president / ai_council to cast a vote into apr_approvals. The smallest missing primitive is dot-apr-approve — designed here, staged only, not deployed. Deploying it is itself a high-risk patch_ops_code change that needs the very quorum that has no channel yet (bootstrap paradox) → only the owner/operator can break the bootstrap.

What did NOT happen (hard locks honored)

• APR-0415 not executed, not approved, not deployed.
• 0 approvals recorded · 0 manual SQL · 0 manual Directus · 0 fabrication · 0 self-approval.
• No root/SYNC_SECRET/GCP-owner used as quorum. No handler deploy/bind. No dot-c1-grant-issue register.
• No W1→W9. No C1 dry-run. No Codex.
