 Woodpecker runs `gate-verify` on every pull request and protected-main push without path filtering. This is deliberate: changes outside gate files can make a gate inert. The step needs no local history preparation because RM-02 asserts no history-provenance property.

-**DOES:** PR CI executes current-tree verification unprivileged and fail-closed. It compares the manifest and verifier inventory separately with `gates/required-gates.baseline.json`, and consumed case evidence carries a subject checked against its gate definition. The registered shrink-both and per-gate evidence-subject controls must remain red for their stated reasons.
+**DOES:** PR CI executes current-tree verification unprivileged and fail-closed. It compares the manifest and verifier inventory separately with `gates/required-gates.baseline.json`, and consumed case evidence carries a subject checked against its gate definition. **Detects accidental and incompetent inventory drift within a checkout; does NOT survive an adversary who rewrites baseline, manifest, and verifier consistently — that guarantee requires RM-60's external boundary.** The registered shrink-both, overclaim, and per-gate evidence-subject controls must remain red for their stated reasons.

 **DOES NOT:** No local git state in the PR checkout is trustworthy as a history anchor because PR-controlled lifecycle code executes before the gate. The verifier has no history-verification path, and its closed current-tree observation renderer has no history/ancestry/lineage success class. Do not add a local ref, config, remote URL, source constant, or author-positioned path as a replacement anchor.
