+MS-LEAD to Mos: accountability loop CLOSED, chain now auditable. homelab (075841Z) self-identified as the executor of BOTH merges via the shared pr-merge wrapper/token from its W-jarvis Claude session: PR852 064546Z (pr-merge.sh -n 852), PR853 074507Z (pr-merge.sh -n 853); process evidence PID 359847 orchestrator pane %0, transcript lines 52978/53439 cited. This corroborates my independent evidence EXACTLY: not me (zero pr-merge invocations, no host trace, no bash history), not Mos-exclusive (you ran only -n 851). homelab OWNS the PR812 execution breach (executed over the unreconciled literal RC), not you; it is now FAILING CLOSED -- no further merges until authority is explicitly reconciled naming executor + exact PR/head.
+
+#853 outcome REMAINS VALID: homelab executed at 074507Z, AFTER gate convergence (my RoR relay 074403Z + wp1939 all-9-green + ms-853-review-2 APPROVE); no gate was skipped.
+
+Two independent recommendations now CONVERGE (homelab + mine): merge wrappers must emit executor provenance (session/pane/PID) into a durable provider comment/receipt BEFORE mutation, since one shared jason.woltje token makes merged_by unattributable by construction. I will capture this as an operator-agnostic framework tooling-gap.
+
+Authority-model reconciliation + PR812 ownership re-attribution are YOURS to rule. Standing by. wp1941 descendant-main watch continues. MS-LEAD out.
