Gate: REGISTRATION_HOLD · REGISTRATION_CAN_PROCEED = NO · 0 runtime mutations (only read-only query_pg + KB design-doc uploads).
PASS level claimed: design-review-ready PASS / engineering-design PASS only — not authority / implementation / runtime / production / registration PASS.
1. One-screen summary
| dimension | result |
|---|---|
| Verdict | RS5B_READY_FOR_GPT_REVIEW |
| Scope | G2 Owner-of-record execution-design / authorization-design, non-mutating; does NOT reopen accepted RS5A/PATCH1–4 lifecycle, quorum, G02, owner, handler, identity, U1/U2/U3, prerequisite semantics |
| State reconstruction | LIVE re-verified this macro (ownership=0; 6 scopes, none registration; register_dot absent; assign_governance_owner high/unimplemented; 0 effect/artifact columns; GOV-DOT/SIV/COUNCIL active) — [[01-source-register-and-current-state-reconstruction]] |
| Bootstrap problem | stated explicitly; circularity named; only legitimate source = Constitution + Chairman ("AI proposes, does not promulgate") — [[02-g2-owner-of-record-bootstrap-problem-statement]] |
| Candidate models | A reject, B reject (subject-only), C reject, D preferred (design-only), E safe runtime posture — [[03-authority-chain-candidate-models-and-rejection-matrix]] |
| Preferred design | non-mutating founding-act runbook; read-only preflight first; every write [GATE]; per-block rollback — [[04-preferred-non-mutating-execution-design-runbook]] |
| Authorization packet | 13 conjunctive elements; item 13 (Chairman) unconditional+last; none satisfied today — [[05-authorization-packet-requirements-before-any-write]] |
| Adversarial self-check | BI01–BI10 + 2 self-traps; no invalid input produces PASS/digest/seal — [[06-fail-closed-adversarial-self-check-and-bad-inputs]] |
| Owner/scope/APR/register_dot created | none |
| Registration gate | REGISTRATION_HOLD retained; REGISTRATION_CAN_PROCEED = NO |
| Single next step | GPT review of RS5B → on accept, Codex review → on accept, a separately-authorized P2 execution lane under Chairman authority |
2. Why RS5B_READY_FOR_GPT_REVIEW and not a HOLD
The ten completion criteria (RS5B §2) are all met: (1) state reconstructed from governed KB and LIVE; (2) no Owner/scope/APR/action created; (3) bootstrap explicit; (4) ≥5 models compared; (5) broad/implicit/self-mint models rejected; (6) preferred design non-mutating; (7) authorization packet defined; (8) bad-input probes applied with no fail-open; (9) REGISTRATION_HOLD retained; (10) next step = GPT then Codex.
The HOLD verdicts were each tested and do not apply:
| HOLD candidate | applies? | why not |
|---|---|---|
RS5B_HOLD_BOOTSTRAP_AUTHORITY_UNRESOLVED |
no | bootstrap is design-solvable (Model D grounded in promulgated law); the marker describes runtime state, not the design verdict |
RS5B_HOLD_AUTHORIZATION_PACKET_INSUFFICIENT |
no | packet is fully defined (13 elements); "not yet satisfied" is the correct fail-closed state, not an insufficiency of the design |
RS5B_HOLD_EXECUTION_DESIGN_TOO_MUTATING |
no | runbook is non-mutating; all writes [GATE] |
RS5B_HOLD_OWNER_SCOPE_BOUNDARY_AMBIGUOUS |
no | 10-scope taxonomy + Option B clusters are explicit; MUST_NOT_IMPLICIT_INHERIT named per edge |
RS5B_HOLD_LEGO_BOUNDARY_INSUFFICIENT |
no | LEGO proof holds (§4 below) |
RS5B_REJECT_SCOPE_DRIFT / RS5B_REJECT_FAIL_OPEN / RS5B_REJECT_RUNTIME_MUTATION |
no | no scope drift, no fail-open (BI01–BI10), no runtime mutation |
3. PASS-level labeling (explicit, non-upgradable)
| PASS level | claimed? | basis |
|---|---|---|
| design-review-ready PASS | YES | this package is complete, fail-closed, ready for GPT/Codex review |
| engineering/design PASS | YES | the design is internally consistent and traced to governed sources + LIVE |
| authority PASS | NO | requires Chairman authorization (packet item 13) + bound owner — absent |
| implementation PASS | NO | nothing implemented |
| runtime PASS | NO | nothing run; suite remains DEFINED_NOT_EXECUTED |
| production / registration PASS | NO | REGISTRATION_HOLD retained |
Engineering PASS is never upgraded to authority PASS (BI08). Where any fact's tier was uncertain, it was labeled lower ([[01-source-register-and-current-state-reconstruction]] §3 F5).
4. LEGO boundary proof (born / tested / changed / rolled back separately)
RS5B introduces no mega-system: it adds a design over the existing governance_object_ownership / governance_responsibility_scope / governance_registry substrate and the 10-scope taxonomy, with each part separable.
| part | born separately | tested separately | changed separately | rolled back separately | joined by explicit contract |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| owner designation | one ownership row per scope (W3) | RS5A-09 A/B groups | per-row supersede | per-row rollback_ref |
FK owner→registry |
| scope definition | one scope_code row each (W1) |
C/H/I groups | per-scope deprecate | per-row delete/deprecate | FK ownership→scope |
| approval quorum | DOT_APPROVAL_QUORUM_AUTHORITY (GOV-COUNCIL only) |
F + identity cases | supersede council row | per-row | MUST_NOT_IMPLICIT_INHERIT to registration |
| principal identity | canonical-principal surface (future) | PATCH2-03 cases, PATCH4 fixtures | re-version contract | drop surface | principal_resolution_ref |
| registration authority | DOT_REGISTRATION_AUTHORITY head (GOV-DOT) |
A/B/C/D groups | supersede row | per-row | admission edges |
| artifact admission | DOT_ARTIFACT_ADMISSION + DOT_HASH_CARRIER |
E/H08 groups | per-block | drop carrier | artifact_hash_ref |
| activation | DOT_ACTIVATION_AUTHORITY (only post-reg-capable) |
I group | supersede row | per-row | explicit, never inherited |
| replay surface | DOT_REPLAY_SURFACE (hard pre-runtime) |
G group | per-block | drop surface | nonce/U1/U2 |
| audit surface | DOT_AUDIT_SINK (hard pre-runtime, failure-only) |
H06/H07 | per-block | drop sink | audit_policy_ref |
Every part is born by one row/surface, tested by its own RS5A-09 group, changed by per-row supersession, rolled back by its own rollback_ref/drop, and joined to others only by explicit FK/admission/MUST_NOT_IMPLICIT_INHERIT edges. LEGO_BOUNDARY_HELD.
5. Carried blockers & must-not-do
Carried unchanged: G2–G7 + STATUS_DOMAIN_NOT_DB_ENFORCED + U3_PARTIAL_UNIQUE_SURFACE_ABSENT + OWNER_MINT_PATH_FAIL_CLOSED + QUORUM_EFFECT_BINDING_INSUFFICIENT + QUORUM_APPROVER_IDENTITY_UNVERIFIED + BOOTSTRAP_AUTHORITY_UNRESOLVED + CANONICAL_PRINCIPAL_SURFACE_REQUIRED_NOT_PRESENT. No new blocker; no new reject code (RS5B adds only design markers: ROLLBACK_PLAN_ABSENT as a design-time gate label, already implied by OR §4/NT15). All must-not-do (1–24) held: no runtime mutation, no DDL/DML, no Owner/scope/principal-registry/APR/register_dot/approval/handler created, no registrar/validator patch, no RS-VALIDATOR, no implementation/registration/activation, REGISTRATION_HOLD not cleared, engineering PASS not upgraded to authority PASS.
6. PATCH4 caveat carried forward (corrected)
Per the accepted Codex PATCH4 report: future summaries must say nine fixtures / CQ01–CQ09 (the PATCH4 closure-map's "eight" was the editorial slip). No PATCH5 is required. RS5B repeats the corrected count here so it propagates.
7. Single next step
GPT reviews RS5B (this package only). On accept → Codex review. On Codex accept → a separately-authorized P2 execution lane under Chairman authority builds the carriers/policies (replace-not-wrap) and only then a later independent gate decides P3 registration. Residual from review ⇒ RS5B-PATCH1. REGISTRATION_HOLD remains until that later gate, not before.
