+    dot-sources. Holds:
+
+    - The import guard for WorktreeRunResolution.psm1. A failed import is recorded in

+      cannot make the gate exit non-zero and fail open.
+    - The two checkpoint read seams, relocated from the gate file with their names kept.
+      Each takes a mandatory absolute path composed beneath a resolved worktree root.
+    - The resolution seam Resolve-EpicWorktreeGateRunTarget, which locates the epic or
+      parallel checkpoint that records the removal target under worktree_path.
+    - Read-EpicWorktreeGateRunCheckpoint, which returns the target and the parsed
+      checkpoint beneath it ($null when the target is unresolved).

 .SYNOPSIS
-    Epic-scope command and path legs of the preimplementation gate (issue #663).
+    Epic-scope legs, checkpoint read seams, and target resolution of the preimplementation gate.
 
 .DESCRIPTION
-    Dot-sourced by enforce-orchestration-preimplementation-gate.ps1. Holds two groups of
+    Dot-sourced by enforce-orchestration-preimplementation-gate.ps1. Holds four groups of
     functions:
 
-    - The two per-mode read seams of issue #554 (Get-EpicCheckpointContent and
-      Get-ParallelCheckpointContent), relocated verbatim from the gate file by issue #663
-      so the gate stays inside the 500-line cap. Their names and behaviour are unchanged,
-      so tests that mock or shadow them by name are unaffected.
-    - The epic-scope decision for the command and path legs. A staging command or a
-      Write/Edit call is epic scope when the effective worktree's HEAD (the -C selector
-      worktree when present, otherwise the session root) equals the integration_branch of
-      artifacts/orchestration/epic-orchestrator-state.json. In epic scope the call is
-      decided by the epic command-leg readiness predicate, and under decision D2 an
-      implementation-classified operand is allowed only while a merge is in progress in
-      that worktree. Outside epic scope the decision function returns $null and the gate's
-      single-feature path runs unchanged.
+    - The import guard for the worktree-resolution modules (issue #690). A failed import
+      is recorded in $script:OrchestrationGateResolutionImportFailure, and
+      Get-OrchestrationGateImportFailureDecision turns that record into a deny, so a
+      missing module cannot make the gate exit non-zero and fail open.
+    - The three checkpoint read seams, Get-CheckpointContent, Get-EpicCheckpointContent,
+      and Get-ParallelCheckpointContent. Each takes a mandatory absolute path, so no
+      read binds to the calling process's directory. Get-CheckpointContent and
+      Get-OrchestrationModeDenyReason were relocated here from the gate file by issue #690
+      to keep the gate inside the 500-line cap.
+    - The target resolution of issue #690. Resolve-OrchestrationGateTarget selects the
+      worktree whose checkpoint governs the call from portable identity only: the
+      integration_branch: value for an epic delegation, the parallel_slug: value for a
+      parallel delegation, the file_path or git -C operand for the path and command legs,
+      and the canonical issue-number line and branch: label for a single-feature
+      delegation. Read-OrchestrationGateCheckpoint reads the checkpoint beneath the
+      resolved root, or returns the deny for an unresolved target.
+    - The epic-scope decision for the command and path legs (issue #663). A staging
+      command or a Write/Edit call is epic scope when the effective worktree's HEAD equals
+      the integration branch of the epic checkpoint that Resolve-EpicScopeCheckpoint
+      locates. Outside epic scope the decision function returns $null and the gate's
+      single-feature path runs.
 
 .NOTES
     PowerShell 7+. Depends on functions the gate defines or dot-sources before any call:
     Split-OrchestrationCommandLine and ConvertTo-OrchestrationCommandToken (helpers file),
     Get-OrchestrationDelegationCheckpointPath (modes file), and the gate's allow and block
-    decision constructors. Mirrored byte-identically under
