+Correction/new actionable delta: FCM-M5-001 exact-head RoR REQUESTED CHANGES on 0db300dce5b7f3ac990e002aa85dc0f663f188dd despite pipeline 1858 green. One bounded bypass remains: option-bearing env wrappers such as env -u FOO apt-get evade privileged-command detection. Same sole PR/lane is repairing red-first; lifecycle wording was verified aligned. Durable board pushed at 0b02199ea. Merge, #758 closure, M4-002/M5-002, and live actions remain held.
