I read this as an adversarial verification of Todo 3 r5 only - I will inspect the implementation and evidence, run the specified probes and quality gates, then write the required independent verification receipt without altering product files.


I read this as an adversarial verification result - I found one authority-binding blocker.

AdversarialVerify: needs-fix

Exact repro: creating an owner-only extra child changes authority-root `nlink` 2→3; fresh open with the original binding succeeds because binding has no `root_links`.

Needed fix: pre-create `customers-v1`, bind root link count, and verify it on active/fresh authority opens with a RED regression.

47 focused and 49 regression tests passed; privacy, marker replacement, restart, corruption, and static gates passed. Receipts written under evidence.
