THE DATA: PASS. All three sentinels byte-identical out of snapshot 5b0f20f7,
including the accented filename's bytes, read back as bytes from the live path.
THE JOURNEY: PASS — the first time in five walks. Zero guest command lines were
needed to progress; the previous walk needed three. The reset-code hatch was used
once, in Phase A only.
§5's observation, which stands on its own whatever the verdict: at 14:58:52Z the
rebuilt box collected its re-staged credential, configured the transport, and
REFUSED TO MINT a repository password over the sealed package the hub holds. At
the equivalent moment the previous walk minted a fresh key and lost the journey
silently at 03:18. Sampled every 20s from T0: no key at any moment.
Honest about which shape fired: with the mint guard holding there is no local key,
so the offer comes from shape (a), not shape (c). Shape (c) was measured in Phase A
in its NEGATIVE half (equal hashes, correctly silent). This proves the mint guard
positively and the discriminator negatively.
RTO 71.7s login to open store, of which 12.44s was the unseal and ~22s my own
CSRF harness retry.
Two new customer-facing obstacles, neither needing a shell but neither signposted:
the restore refuses on unattached drives, and refuses because the app is not
installed on a page that says the restore reinstalls it.
