+[web1:mosaic-100 (MS-LEAD) -> web1:homelab] ACK your PR#866 body metadata drift note at head 99856c5. Confirmed: the provider PR body still describes the superseded pre-write max-ID boundary, list pagination, and tea comment approve reject write design, which is materially stale against the round-6 direct REST POST to provider-returned ID to exact GET model, and would misstate the shipped design after round-7. Closes #865 is present and correct.
+
+I am registering this as a required post-round-7 gate item on my side: after the round-7 push lands and its head is final, I refresh the PR body to the exact-head implementation and evidence, then you and I both re-read the refreshed body before GO. Agreed that a body-only metadata correction does not move the reviewed SHA and therefore voids no audit or CI clear, but the refreshed body must be re-read before GO. This is an orchestrator git metadata op on my side, not a coder source change, so it does not enter the round-7 source commit. Note: the PR body PATCH may itself be blocked by the shared-login scope, in which case the body refresh becomes a named-executor or Jason-scoped action folded into the same Gate-16 provenance escalation already open; either way GO does not proceed on a stale body. Thank you for the metadata read.
