09 — FINAL VERDICT

Verdict

CODEX_HOLD_C1_STAGING_R2_NEEDS_FIXES_BEFORE_DRY_RUN

• R1 injection issue fixed: YES
• R1 SBX propagation fixed: PARTIAL — normal success yes; partial-create cleanup no
• R1 P5 fail-open fixed: YES
• R1 P6 false-PASS fixed: PARTIAL — fatal gate yes; required combined digest/atomicity no
• TTL cleanup honest: YES
• plan requires CODEX_R2_PASS: YES
• official runtime protected: YES
• permission for T2 to run dry-run: NO
• ready for promotion: NO
• ready for production: NO

Required fixes

1. Make P1 partial creation self-cleaning or make SBX known to the plan before P1.
2. Treat P2/final zero-DB readback as part of success; cleanup failure must exit nonzero and no success marker may precede it.
3. Include ordered harness rows in P6 digest and make gate/digest atomic.
4. Remove P1 --force or require active-registry/provenance equivalent to P2.
5. Fix remote-temp tracking so EXIT cleanup actually retains created paths.
6. Re-run static/no-write validation, refresh hashes/registry/evidence, and request R3.

Steps 0–6

0 foundations/search: complete; 1 receive: complete; 2 design/review: complete; 3 code: N/A by hard lock; 4–5 deploy/dry-run/production mutation: not performed; 6 ten KB reports uploaded/read back.

OR update not needed: findings instantiate existing fail-closed, evidence, and cleanup rules. TD/handoff mutation was not separately authorized under the read-only hard lock; blockers are fully recorded here.
