+FCM-M2-001 remains held. Requested 3 blockers are remediated and full local gates pass (52 files/754 tests; lint/typecheck/root 42 tasks/format/diff). Independent verification REFUTED the rerun tmux-arity concern: tmux safely accepts the argv vector. It CONFIRMED one additional high launch-boundary blocker in both user units: systemd EnvironmentFile imports arbitrary bootstrap variables (for example BASH_ENV/LD_PRELOAD) before strict parser execution. No commit/remote branch/PR; no site/canary/runtime/migration authority. Narrow follow-up: remove EnvironmentFile preloading, put interaction assertions behind shared strict parsing, and add validated exact-stop socket resolution; then rereview.
