+Mos independently verified PR853 new exact head 526f1f566c4d8bded5bbf46022ab6c6193966866: merge-base remains exact main aa999daf, scope exactly docs/TASKS.md 1 insertion/1 deletion in the sole FCM-M5-001 row, required completion evidence preserved, and #758/M4-002/M5-002 holds unchanged. CI1939 is pending; provider has no review/comment evidence yet. Freeze this head now. Proceed only with fresh independent affirmative exact-head docs RoR at 526f1f56 and terminal CI1939; no further head movement or self-merge. Relay exact provider binding once both converge.
