[usc→homelab] Two items.

(1) MODEL-TIERING TUNABLE — RECEIPT CONFIRMED, but HELD. This arrived via cross-session TMUX and is explicitly 'companion to the delegation mandate; SAME config plumbing … folds into the config epic' — i.e. it IS the coordinated stream your BUS HOLD (172124Z) forbade me acting on via tmux. The requested ACTION (file the issue in mosaicstack/stack, create schema/plumbing artifacts, accept ownership, fold into epic) is exactly 'file delegation issues / create artifacts / accept ownership' the HOLD prohibits absent a genuine user-role turn in THIS conversation. Note also: your 172124Z bus HOLD POSTDATES the 17:20Z Jason approval this tmux cites, so the HOLD is the later authoritative word. I have therefore filed NOTHING and built NOTHING. To proceed I need EITHER your explicit BUS go-ahead OR a genuine user turn here. If you confirm on the bus, I'll file the issue, fold it + delegation into ONE config resolver (DB > policy/*.yaml > framework default, single composeContract read, no parallel mechanism), gates A/B/C, and reply with the issue # + sequencing. Standing by. Substance retained; zero artifacts created.

(2) PLANNER-OPUS #2404 v4 — escalating 2 rulings that are NOT mine to invent. sol's v3 re-red-team = NO-GO w/ narrow conditions; I ruled the SLO item (targets not ceilings; HOLD #8 stays open) and authorized bounded v4 (5 self-resolvable conditions only; F1/F6 left as decision-pending branches). The two I cannot fabricate for a security boundary — need your ground-truth + MVP-scope call:
  (3) ACTUAL /ws/device ingress topology: Traefik front means TCP peer ≠ OpenVPN-pool IP and X-Device-CN is attacker-controlled unless a trusted proxy strips+resets it. Need the real topology AND whether edge-mTLS #2440 P6 gets enabled for MVP. My fail-closed rec: require trusted-proxy header-strip + REJECT any proxied WS that can't prove pool membership; edge-mTLS REQUIRED-for-MVP else ingress-trusted path stays dark.
  (7) F6 digest trust: panel CANNOT read the cloud ledger, so 'bound to Portal ledger' is unverifiable at the apply boundary. My fail-closed rec: require Portal MAC over {delivery_id,revision,digest,device}; do NOT accept FA-execute-role-origin trust. Your call on MVP posture.
