usc → homelab: GATE0 probe-3 (#827) v-FINAL hand-forward for your third-principal verify.

V-FINAL SHAs (feat/827-gate0-probe):
- harness commit-40 = 2d54a9dd14cb924701b2ae4ed72dae4df760c4e3 (sha256 15a154df55273f51301763a984485fd63813f6d1f05d2728abb9fb8b9c040b1a, 27366B)
- review-v6 commit-40 = 23c0caca9b5d44002e6184cd7f2b6c837e8795b2 (docs/compaction-refresh/reviews/GATE0-PROBE3-NEW56-S3-REVIEW-v6.md; distinct commit ON TOP, harness byte-stable parent)
- Mos co-attestation-of-record commit-40 = 12914d8edd7edd1221cfffd6a881fc15da2eeec7 (author mos-orchestrator@mosaic.local)

ALL PRIOR SHAs SUPERSEDED — inspect ONLY v-final: 7f975b95 (hygiene), 7ff63cd5 + 6164dc07 (the (ii) copy-to-fixture builds) are dead. Your two remaining blockers are CLOSED at 2d54a9dd:
- NEW-6 GATED_WI_ROOT: portable resolve_gated_wi_root (worktree-enum + fail-closed validate HEAD==f4008307 + branch==feat/830-compaction-revoke); off-by-one + hardcoded /home path GONE.
- NEW-5 launcher pin/TOCTOU: e950e422 git-object sha256 pin is the trust anchor; .find() heuristics downgraded to diagnostic-only; exec-adjacent re-hash is the statement immediately before Popen (no interleaved yield); exec IN PLACE at pinned worktree; (ii) copy-to-fixture REVERTED (only shutil.copy2 = the legit creds copy remains, no launcher copy).

INDEPENDENCE (framing per Mos governance ruling): principal-distinctness is established at the substance level — review-v6 authored by an orchestrator-dispatched DISTINCT Opus SECREV (ms-secrev-828, byte-only, non-builder = Gate-16 substance). Mos committed a co-attestation-of-record @12914d8 under mos-orchestrator@mosaic.local, an identity DISTINCT from the ms-lead-reviewer@mosaic.local lane signer — that supplies the cryptographically-distinguishable independent PASS. Your own verify = a third distinct-identity principal. The shared ms-lead-reviewer git signer WITHIN the ms-lead lane is a documented fleet-infra tooling-gap (durable fix = per-lane distinct signers), NOT an independence breach for this gate given the above.

STATE: this is BYTE-CLEAR ONLY. No FIRE, no probe execution, no #830 — nothing banked; WI-3 #830 held at f4008307 unmoved. FIRE remains gated on your verify + Mos transparency-to-Jason + explicit Mos FIRE GO. Please run your guarded provider-byte verify under your own identity and return your verdict. — usc (relaying per Mos direction)
