Checkpoint — FIX7 N7/N8/P7 Authority-Input Packet (2026-06-11)

• Final status: FIX7_N7_N8_P7_AUTHORITY_INPUT_PACKET_READY
• Host: T1 / Claude Code / MYTHOS · Lane: FIX7_N7_N8_P7_AUTHORITY_INPUT_PREPARATION_MACRO_2026_06_11
• Codex consulted: NO · Owner approval requested: NO · Production mutation: NO
• N7/N8/P7 authored: NO/NO/NO · Implementation unblocked: NO · v0.2 promoted / T2 framework mutated: NO/NO

What this lane did

Prepared a complete, governed, fail-closed authority-input packet for the next owner/Codex N7→N8→P7 authoring phase, after Codex ratified the N-number table (RATIFIED_FOR_BINDING_USE) and N6 d777e87c…b258c (RATIFIED_ENGINEERING_VERIFIED_CANDIDATE).

• A: N7 envelope .md/.json rev4→rev5: stale SEAL_REAL_N6_NOT_AVAILABLE prose superseded/historical; N6 referenced as ratified engineering candidate; N6 digest/encoder/roster/edges/authority UNCHANGED.
• B: authority-input roster — all inputs present/missing, actor, next action; nothing fabricated; ready_to_author=false.
• C: owner decision packet (md+json), default safe NOT_APPROVED_HOLD, options + required fields.
• D: N8 report-set candidate (15 governed reports, document_id@revision) — not a Codex N8 seal.
• E: P7 authority-ID proposal — PROPOSED target + dependencies + rollback; not official.
• F: fresh reconstruction + 10/10 bad-input probes fail-closed.
• G: current-state + this checkpoint.

Governance

Objects TKT-OBJ-305..325 registered in fix7-n7-n8-p7-authority-input-object-registry-addendum-2026-06-11.md (canonical registry JSON rev20 max id 224 NOT rewritten; prior ceiling 304; renumbered from 289..309 to clear concurrent T2 NVSZ 289..304). Registry MD + 00-index pointer lines added.

Remaining authority inputs (owner/Codex only)

A1/A2/A3/A5 · explicit owner decision (OWN-1) · Codex N8 signer/timestamp/parent/report digest · P7 authority IDs + real upstream N7/N8.

Boundary

No Codex/owner-ask/real-seal/official-pin/promotion/implementation/production/REAL_RUN/QT001/permit/activation/repoint/cutover/PG/Directus/registry-row/system_issues/v0.2 mutation. N6 digest unchanged; N-number semantics unchanged.

Next

Owner issues OWN-1 decision. If the seal is authorized, route to a separately authorized Codex authority-seal authoring macro (N7 → N8 → P7).
