PUB-REC-FILBERT-FINAL-1 — final selective publication verdict

Reviewer: Filbert (independent). Coordinator: Darkwing. Trial #1497. Authorship conflicts: none; I authored none of the 90 files' non-verdict content, and my five verdict files are included as reviewed evidence bytes (they match my live files exactly, including the appended WUI correction).

Verdict: APPROVED for selective publication

Exact units: the 90-file snapshot /tmp/pub-rec-final-review-f5br4ch4 at manifest SHA-256 3f8e765bded8bbd66d791f7fb761cb6ee3c438b5318a115baa9cc9c0ec75d2e4, plus two metadata units: the durable manifest docs/plans/reviews/2026-09-08_publication-trial-final.sha256 (byte-identical to the snapshot SHA256SUMS; hashes to the same 3f8e765b…) and the inventory docs/plans/reviews/2026-09-08_publication-trial-final-inventory.json (SHA-256 1889871b5aace9d475204f666b95b6998ef28c06c6a77185fa28edeb6fc7babb). Total 92. This verdict is a separate later receipt, not part of the pin. All 90 hashes verified before and after review; snapshot unchanged.

Aggregation and pin continuity

Every one of the 90 files matches a prior frozen approval or is a declared new unit; zero mismatches:

  • 53 WUI files byte-match the approved a585c1ee… manifest, plus the coordinator-added PUBLICATION.md pending-acceptance label as a separate unit (the reviewed 53 are unchanged).
  • 15 source candidates byte-match the original launcher approval 8900faf1….
  • 6 source candidates byte-match the approved Sonnet R2 snapshot c5ad6306… (rocko launcher/README/CONTEXT, rocko test, agents README, darkwing SOUL).
  • The curated recovery summary byte-matches its approved 0e17757c… pin.
  • Exactly one file differs from every prior pin: the trial plan, whose delta is a gates-status update (pending items replaced by the recorded outcomes, drift exclusions, and still-pending publication/owner acceptance). Every statement in that delta is consistent with the recorded verdicts.
  • R1 rejected Sonnet verdict preserved verbatim (REQUEST CHANGES present); the live first-failure fixture log is preserved as declared.

New-unit content review

  • PUBLICATION.md states the label accurately: pending owner acceptance, original draft with provisional defaults, owner feedback recorded but not implemented, no dashboards, candid-feedback framing, font OFL retention, excluded evidence not attached, no trademark, license, or accessibility-certification claims.
  • The launcher approval receipt accurately records my verdict, the hash re-verification, the preserved cosmetic duplicate, and the transport-only acknowledgement; it claims no push authority.
  • Shared logs and plan/status files (BUILD-LOG, SESSIONS, CURRENT, TOOLS) contain no credentials, hosted conversation links, or .pi paths. They do contain local session UUIDs, home-directory paths, and a fleet socket name — local-only identifiers with no access path published, consistent with the repository's existing published posture; raw session/transcript/state content remains excluded.
  • /tmp locators in published verdicts are historical evidence pointers, not attachments; raw local evidence is not published.
  • Exclusions verified structurally: no skills/ paths among the 90 (both executive-update files and all live skill drift excluded), no raw Rocko checkpoint/inventory/recovery records, no nonallowlisted WUI evidence, no .pi content.

Live drift handling

The unreviewed live changes (executive-update skill edit, ms-agent-watch deletion, six new untracked skill directories) are preserved uncommitted and excluded from publication. The prospective committed tree correctly retains the baseline tracked ms-agent-watch file. Nothing was restored, adopted, or staged by this review.

Prospective-tree verification

I built my own disposable tree from the public Git baseline 3b7fd19d… plus the 90-file overlay and reran both fixture suites: node --test scripts/test-rocko-launch.mjs scripts/test-darkwing-launch.mjs — 5 tests, 5 pass, 0 fail, exit 0. This independently reproduces the coordinator's corrected result. The coordinator's preserved first-run log ends in EACCES on the fixture's temporary SOUL copy (read-only export modes), matching the declared 4-pass/1-fail cause; it is correctly not counted as a passing test or a launcher failure.

Procedural note, recorded honestly: my first overlay command failed to create its target directory and the fixture run fell through to the live drifted tree. It mutated nothing (the fixtures write only to temp roots; live git status shows pre-existing drift only) and its assertion failure is consistent with the declared missing-skill drift, which I confirmed directly (skills/ms-agent-watch/SKILL.md absent live). The 5/5 result above is from the correctly built disposable tree, not that incidental run, and I did not rerun against the live tree.

Conditions

  1. Publish exactly the 92 units at the identities above; any byte change requires new review.
  2. All prior conditions remain in force: WUI pending-acceptance labeling, raw runtime records local, recovery outcome bounded, no branding or product acceptance inferred.
  3. This approval covers the selective publication inventory only. Integration proceeds under the owner's publication mandate with applicable tests; no deployment, live change, push authority, or overall trial acceptance is granted or implied here. Jason's trial acceptance remains the open gate.
