I read this as an independent verification audit - I will inspect the r8/r9 evidence, reproduce the specified checks without modifying the sealed candidate, and record results outside it.


I read this as an adversarial Task12 r9 verification request - I completed the sealed-only audit and recorded independent evidence.

**CONFIRMED** - `e15933d...daf49b5b` is `QUALIFIED_PENDING_LIVE_AUTHORIZATION`.

- Seal verifier, physical inventory, derivations, wheel RECORDs, reproducible build pairs, LOC, and tamper matrix passed.
- Static delta: 0 added basedpyright/ty diagnostics, 0 new suppressions; no-excuse `1651 -> 1627` with `0 new / 24 resolved`.
- E2E source and wheel-staged Golden Path passed; privacy-negative verification correctly failed.
- Tests passed: profile 1040, weekly 286, Golden 10, affected gateway 165, Todo11 12x8, Todo5 transfer 40 plus 24 atomic FD-interruption probes.
- Gateway collected/executed all 7,751 nodeids; 11 failures exactly match the sealed baseline classification, with no candidate-only or unclassified failures.
- No live authorization, deployment, publication, network operation, or installation was performed.
