I read this as an independent read-only upgrade-preflight verification - I will audit the package and live-read-only evidence, run only non-mutating validators/probes, then issue the required authorization verdict.


I read this as a final read-only authorization decision - I found mandatory static-gate failures.

DO_NOT_AUTHORIZE

- Direct Ruff ALL: 40 CPY001 findings.
- Direct ty: 6 diagnostics, including an unsound return.
- 66 packaged tests passed; live revalidation, physical seal, empty namespace, and service state remained clean.
