1. Readback table (pre-work verification)

Question	Answer (live-read 2026-06-10)
Codex V3 verdict	CODEX_RECHECK_9_V3_AUTHORITY_BLOCKED — engineering PASS; seal NOT authored by design
Engineering checks passed	Fresh KB reconstruction 32 files tree b95df0a5d2f41f80bea0cef8621c1f8bb0f6b49a40175116418494ed4141ca6d; RERUN 13 gates exit 0; HASH_MANIFEST 32/32; manifest verify 6 REAL CLI executions; black-box 10/10; fail-open 6/6; adversarial 25/25; V2 attack replay rejected fail-closed; Article 13 PASS; Article 14 PASS; hardcode PASS; candidate/rehearsal discipline PASS
Canonicalizer rev3 candidate	revision 3 · 38756 bytes · SHA-256 49c386a9b9666c09786fc4f89bc79776b6046eaee6f4da6d8537d2c753b734d0 (byte-verified by Codex V2 §6 + V3 §8; candidate until P7)
Remaining authority blockers	N7 (approval-event inputs), N8 (Codex-only detached seal), P7 (Codex pin of rev3), OWN-1 (owner approval beyond closure lane); R9-B5-RES = optional tooling residual; NA-DUP = N/A-with-rationale
Who can close each	N7: Codex with owner inputs · N8: Codex · P7: Codex · OWN-1: owner · R9-B5-RES: owner/KB platform (optional)
Exact missing input/event	Approval-event fields A1–A5 (event id, approver identities, timestamp, sealed sub-digests, owner blueprint decision) → then A6 envelope_manifest_sha256 computable by Codex
What T1 may prepare	Closure packet, N7 candidate inputs, N8/P7 requests, owner options, precondition checklist, ledger/current-state/governance updates
What T1 may NOT decide	Any approval, any seal value, lifting do-not-approve beyond the closure lane, implementation start, any production mutation

2. Engineering contradiction check

While assembling the packet, all Codex V3 PASS evidence was cross-read against the V3 handoff, current-state, ledger rev3, and the live packet root (23 root files listed, revisions matching the handoff: README rev17, RERUN.sh rev2, manifest.json rev5, manifest_tool.py rev3, adversarial_suite.py rev2, blackbox_negative_suite.py rev1, failopen_regression.py rev1, HASH_MANIFEST rev2). No contradiction found. Tree hash, rev3 identity (49c386a9…/3/38756), gate counts (13), and suite counts (10/10, 6/6, 25/25) are consistent across all four sources. Therefore the engineering-contradiction stop status was not triggered.

3. Workstream results

WS	Deliverable	Verdict
A	packets/fix7-authority-closure-2026-06-10/n7-approval-event-input-envelope.md + .json (rev1 each)	READY — packet V3 identity, tree hash, rev3 doc/revision/bytes/sha256, Article 13/14 verdicts, engineering evidence, A1–A6 missing-authority table with exact actors, explicit non-self-approval statement
B	n8-detached-seal-request.md (rev1)	READY — what is sealed (tree + rev3 + N7), why engineering is ready, what remains outside engineering, explicit "T1 cannot author this seal"
C	p7-codex-reseal-request.md (rev1)	READY — rev3 object, supporting evidence set (Codex V3 report/checkpoint paths, packet V3, ledger rev4), requested fresh-hash-then-seal procedure
D	owner-decision-packet.md (rev1)	READY — passed/not-authorized, the on-record 2026-06-10 limited authorization, 4 cumulative options, risks/boundaries, standing non-authorization list
E	fix7-implementation-precondition-checklist.md (rev1)	READY — 11 gates: seal required, owner approval required, seal-vs-bytes recheck first, enumerated mutations only, rollback verified before apply, REAL_RUN + QT001/permit/activation/repoint/cutover each separately approved, evidence + governance discipline, required first step
F	checkpoints/fix7-recheck9-remaining-authority-blocker-ledger-2026-06-10.md → rev4	DONE — only authority-class blockers remain (N7/N8/P7/OWN-1) + R9-B5-RES (TOOLING-RESIDUAL, non-blocking, retained and disclosed) + NA-DUP; every row has class, exact actor, next action, blocks-implementation flag
G	knowledge/current-state/reports/fix7-authority-closure-packet-ready-2026-06-10.md (rev1)	DONE — engineering complete; Codex V3 authority-blocked; no implementation; next decision = owner/Codex authority closure
H	Governance: object registry md+json updated (TKT-OBJ-103..112), 00-index updated	DONE — see §5; no orphan objects

4. Honest boundaries

• This packet contains no sealed value. N7/N8/P7 remain unauthored; codex_sealed_values_present:false everywhere.
• OWN-1 is partially lifted only: the 2026-06-10 owner authorization covers preparation + routing; blueprint approval and implementation remain ungated decisions for owner/Codex.
• The KB writes in this lane (closure packet, ledger rev4, current state, checkpoint, this report, registry/index updates) are governed KB documents, not production/PG/Directus mutations.
• Codex V3's disclosed structural limit stands: governed KB hashes + Codex fresh-fetch rerun are the external backstop against total-rewrite attacks.

6. Minimal safe next step

Route packets/fix7-authority-closure-2026-06-10/ to Codex/authority for the seal/approval decision (owner supplies approval-event inputs per the N7 envelope §6; Codex authors N7→N8→P7). Until then, preserve Packet V3 and the rev3 candidate unchanged; do not implement FIX7.
