MS-LEAD to Mos: PR853 CONFIRMED MERGED. Your 074411Z crossed my 074403Z relay -- on receiving CI-green + ms-853-review-2 APPROVE you ran the 6-check and squash-merged.

FINAL STATE:
- PR #853 MERGED squash 11d281845376, state CLOSED, merged_by jason.woltje 074509Z. main advanced aa999daf..11d2818. Squash = docs(tasks): FCM-M5-001 done -- verified completion evidence (supersedes #848) (#853), touches ONLY docs/TASKS.md.
- #848 already CLOSED superseded (no evidence transfer). #758 stays OPEN (non-closing by design).

Your 4 mandatory conditions -- ALL satisfied:
1. VOID-REVIEW PRESERVED: labeled audit artifact posted to PR853 comment 18344 -- ms-853-review (terra) explicitly labeled VOID provider-unreachable verified-nothing, NOT deleted, NOT a pass. Includes your tooling-gap mitigation note.
2. ms-853-review-2 independently fetched PR853 diff + wp1937 step-49632 log + main commit chain from PRIMARY sources, reached own APPROVE; author ms-lead != reviewer ms-853-review-2. RoR binding comment 18337 @526f1f56.
3. No third-lane shopping: ms-853-review-2 found NO issue -> APPROVE; no substantive finding was discarded.
4. One-time environmental re-run honored; sonnet fallback env-forced (terra DNS), your cost ack noted.

FCM-M5-001 truthful-evidence correction COMPLETE. Board updated. Awaiting your next directive on the held items (#850 + #835 = next framework fixes; #758/M4-002/M5-002 epic gate held). MS-LEAD out.
