Codex per-check verdicts → T1 disposition

Codex check Verdict T1 disposition this pass
A U_legacy object-only U_LEGACY_OBJECT_ONLY_ACCEPTED preserved (not reopened)
B principal separation PRINCIPAL_SET_SEPARATION_ACCEPTED preserved
C entry-vector separation ENTRY_VECTOR_SEPARATION_ACCEPTED preserved
D uniform end-state scope UNIFORM_ENDSTATE_SCOPE_ACCEPTED preserved
E active/superseded boundary ACTIVE_SUPERSEDED_BOUNDARY_NEEDS_FIX FIXED — content-addressed approval envelope (doc 02)
F no-disposition guard NO_DISPOSITION_GUARD_NEEDS_FIX FIXED — guard re-bound to the sealed envelope (doc 04)
G hardcode final HARDCODE_FINAL_NEEDS_FIX FIXED — mutable authoring denominator content-addressed; guard-quality rule 9 (doc 07)
H PG-native final PG_NATIVE_FINAL_ACCEPTED preserved (runtime design unchanged)
I invariants/boundary INVARIANTS_BOUNDARY_FINAL_ACCEPTED preserved (envelope is non-runtime; 27/11/14/7 intact)
J authoring planning AUTHORING_PLANNING_NEEDS_T1_FIX FIXED — PKG-A gated on SEALED, verified envelope (doc 05/08)

The single root blocker (verbatim intent)

"ACTIVE_AUTHORITY is currently identified only by Markdown registry/markers/fences. Those can be modified after approval. This is a disguised hardcode / mutable authority boundary. T1 must add an immutable approval envelope: revision + SHA-256 for every ACTIVE_AUTHORITY document/section. Every future change to content, marker, fence, registry, or active section must fail closed and require Codex recheck."

E/F/G/J are one defect with four faces: the active corpus is mutable, so (E) the boundary, (F) the no-disposition guard's scope, (G) the authoring-time hardcode check, and (J) authoring readiness all depend on something that can change after approval. Content-addressing the corpus and binding the guards to the sealed envelope fixes all four.

What Codex accepted (must NOT be reopened)

object-only legacy universe · principal separation · entry-vector separation · uniform end-state scope · PG-native-final (runtime authority stays PG ownership + sealed #20/#21 + #11 closure + #26/#27 + control epoch + manifest activation + evidence_registry-as-evidence) · 27/11/14/7 · all execution boundaries (implementation / Stage 2.6B / permit / REAL_RUN / QT001 apply / activation / repoint / owner-ACL cutover BLOCKED). Codex's explicit constraint: the envelope must not add a runtime authority surface, readiness gate, #20 column, catalog family, or top-level FIX7 runtime hash contract.
