I read this as a final read-only authority audit - I’ll inspect the r35 rehearsal evidence and underlying policy/tests, verify every named r34 blocker condition, and return an unconditional verdict with blocker_count without mutating files.


The r35 evidence resolves to a sealed candidate plus a v15 preseal package. I’m now tracing the recovery-manifest contract and its adversarial coverage directly from those immutable candidate sources, then cross-checking the 13-case report bindings and digests.


I read this as the final r35 authority verdict - I completed the read-only audit against the sealed candidate, preseal, tests, and rehearsal report.

# UNCONDITIONAL PASS

**blocker_count: 0**

Verified:

- `created_files` and `created_directories` now require exact equality with independently derived rollback-owned sets.
- Adversarial coverage rejects created-file omission and weekly-path substitution.
- Protected paths require exact set equality.
- External authority root, pin, and candidate paths require exact sealed-target equality.
- Candidate policy is rebound to r35 digest `cc55847b...`.
- Candidate-specific weekly root is exactly:
  `/home/cube/.hermes/profiles/dualcoachtest/data/weekly-operations-authority-cc55847b134a769f`
- r35 package/candidate/report bindings match.
- Rehearsal report is PASS with 13/13 unique cases, zero external events, and unchanged live source.
- Preseal inventory is exact: 566/566 entries, no hash mismatches or writable/symlink entries.
- Execution, authorization, successor-runtime, and candidate weekly roots remain absent.

No mutation performed.
