I read this as a final read-only closure audit - I’ll independently verify the r43 candidate and preseal across qualification constants, inventory, derivation, reproducibility, immutability, and r42 supersession, then return only a pass or exact blockers.


The artifact surfaces are identified; I’m now validating the manifests and verifier logic against the filesystem itself, with r42 as the independent supersession baseline.


The canonical candidate and preseal verifiers both pass, and independent inventory/mode checks agree. I’m closing the only remaining audit edge: proving the r43 UX qualification is fresh and wheel-bound rather than merely inherited from r42’s receipt.


I read this as final closure disposition - all requested r43 checks passed read-only.

UNCONDITIONAL PASS
