I read this as an independent read-only upgrade preflight verification - I will inspect the governing procedure, package artifacts, and live state without mutating anything.


I read this as a read-only upgrade authorization decision - I verified v3 independently and recorded the result.

DO_NOT_AUTHORIZE

Blockers:
- Canonical suffix parser accepts a wrong-day schedule row and duplicate terminal reservation ID.
- Required static gates fail: Ruff 32, basedpyright all-mode 62, no-excuse 18.
- No fsync-failure fault injection exists.

Positives: package seal/manifest verified, v3 namespace empty, v2 remains invalid, live read-only check passed unchanged with no external network syscalls, 47 tests passed, and disposable exact-wheel OFF smoke/rollback passed.
