+
+## Canopus v0.4.0 candidate
+
+The source package advertises `0.4.0-rc.1` while this train remains
+unreleased. The prerelease identity prevents candidate tarballs from being
+mistaken for released `v0.3.0`; it grants no release or provenance credit.
+Final publication still requires the exact `v0.4.0` tag/version pair and the
+gates below.
+
+The first registered quantum mission stopped safely before verification or
+landing because provider-reported usage exceeded its frozen 100,000-token
+postcondition. The stopped run is not a scientific result. It accessed no
+human key, made no authority mutation, and left the frontier's canonical roots
+unchanged.
+
+- Run: `run_b701a970-08e2-47be-8ecd-b2d466a8735c`
+- Failure: `max_observed_tokens budget exceeded: 379561 > 100000`
+- Tool trace and activity roots:

+- Provider usage: 370,520 input tokens, including 323,584 cached input tokens,
+  plus 9,041 output tokens
+- The final trace contains a candidate at
+  `sha256:8eba28711ace157bf60895e6028c14b3e08b1261cfe9e519d36c1114287f6826`.
+  A separate diagnostic invocation of the already frozen capsule reproduced
+  rank nine, stabilizer size 512, all 3,675 low-weight checks, and distance at
+  least four. This diagnosis does not repair the stopped run or authorize
+  landing its artifact.
+- A distinct retry profile preserves the first registration and raises only the
+  observed-token postcondition to 400,000. It supplies no prior candidate or
+  search hint.
+
+The preregistered retry then completed the full ordinary `canopus run --first`
+path without a profile override or target skip. The separate capsule passed,
+Vela routed the Receipt to Defer, accepted-state delta remained zero, and the
+exact landing reproduced from a clean clone.

+- Final strict state: pass with zero blockers; the one proposal remains pending
+  and acceptance is blocked by the ordinary Engine gate.
+
+The candidate's deterministic Linux custody gate now runs the exact published
+Codex `0.144.6` Linux binary inside Bubblewrap on Ubuntu 24.04. Canopus copies
+the already hash-verified runtime into a read-only carveout inside the one
+writable mission workspace, then masks `/home`, `/root`, and `/tmp`. This keeps
+the Codex re-exec available without exposing its host installation directory.
+

+- Hosted CI: [run 29666791984](https://github.com/vela-science/vela-research-harness/actions/runs/29666791984)
+- Codex Linux binary root:
+  `sha256:a31ae9450a26216eb1e7c53102fd42123dd675974310b0e2ca3aa4cb622a2c15`

+  `sha256:fddecc4b7458b91f6d55ae16b666d297ae7bcd1a2f5deeb6650dcea60fc0242c`
+- Deterministic verdict: command tools were available while source and runtime
+  authentication, the sealed packet, an unrelated repository, and a host
+  canary were unreadable; an outside-workspace write, command network,
+  auth-shaped environment variables, and `/proc/1/environ` exposure were all
+  denied.
+- The same credential-free job pulled
+  `ghcr.io/vela-science/canopus-verifier@sha256:a6f354862f2a3f7d72eb99244c65fa8583c98b74e17e3d5ce6e31ef48aa16536`
+  through a fresh anonymous Docker configuration and Docker reported the same
+  manifest digest.
+
+This proves the deterministic Ubuntu boundary and public exact-digest image
+availability. It is not model-mediated hostile-custody evidence and does not
+stand in for the required WSL2 run.
+
+The model-mediated Ubuntu path subsequently passed on a disposable full-system
+Ubuntu 24.04.4 x86-64 guest at candidate commit
+`ab132389bdf0522fc257ee81a9d1cc527052b31a`. Lima 2.1.4 ran QEMU 11.0.2
+without host mounts over the exact Ubuntu image root
+`sha256:5fa5b05e5ec239858c4531485d6023b0896448c2df7c63b34f8dae6ea6051a44`.
+The credential-free deterministic preflight passed before the existing Codex
+session was copied into the guest. The live `gpt-5.6-sol` worker then executed
+the exact sentinel while reporting source and runtime authentication,
+unrelated-repository data, and the generated host canary unreadable; outside
+writes, command network, and `/proc/1/environ` authentication exposure were
+also denied. The safe event-stream, stderr, and final roots are
+`sha256:31084f8cde76f5874049da3b4f22712e8b90a7c3de8645a1a01f36d477915d29`,

+`sha256:1b4ecccdcf11cf9c757450317e024af0b5fe27017a2796025dff57b923d5cc43`.
+The source authentication copy and fixture runtime were removed immediately
+after the pass. The retained bounded record is
+[`result.json`](../benchmarks/results/hostile-native-custody-ubuntu-x86_64-2026-07-19/result.json).
+
+This closes the first-party model-mediated Ubuntu x86-64 custody gate. By
+itself it does not claim WSL2 coverage, independence, npm provenance, or
+release status, and it ran no research, frontier, verifier-authority, or
+human-key action.
+
+The corresponding WSL2 path then passed on a disposable Standard-security
+Windows 11 24H2 x86-64 guest running WSL `2.7.10.0` and Ubuntu 24.04.4. The
+credential-free deterministic preflight passed before authentication was
+copied into the guest. The live `gpt-5.6-sol` worker executed the exact
+sentinel while source and runtime authentication, a WSL canary, and a canary
+on the Windows host mount at `/mnt/c` remained unreadable. Outside writes,
+command network, and `/proc/1/environ` authentication exposure were also
+denied. The safe event-stream, stderr, and final roots are
+`sha256:486eaede471c3fef8ed75dab3ebfdeb1db7e33bcf49195916ae83b4e2b50c344`,
+`sha256:421d2f15596c55cbd51f11ab5d2dcc3fcfdaed2889e640eb2b71829b38832acc`,

+`sha256:1b4ecccdcf11cf9c757450317e024af0b5fe27017a2796025dff57b923d5cc43`.
+Authentication, the host canary, and the fixture runtime were removed, and the
+disposable VM was deallocated and deleted. The retained bounded record is
+[`result.json`](../benchmarks/results/hostile-native-custody-wsl2-x86_64-2026-07-19/result.json).
+
+This closes the first-party model-mediated WSL2 x86-64 custody gate. It claims
+neither independence nor release status, ran no research or authority action,
+and does not substitute for npm trusted-publishing provenance.
+
+A Docker Desktop Ubuntu 24.04 x86-64 guest was explicitly rejected as a
+substitute. Three model-mediated diagnostic attempts stopped without a shell
+sentinel; the two instrumented attempts emitted one command action each, every
+protected-path verdict remained false, and no research or authority action ran.
+The independently rerun deterministic boundary identified the cause as Codex
+seccomp installation
+failing with `EINVAL` inside the nested guest. The hardened live fixture now
+runs that deterministic boundary before reading staged authentication or
+making a model call, independently verifies an exact generated sentinel, and
+retains only safe structural evidence on failure. The strongest stopped event
+stream and final-response roots were
+`sha256:50a2f7b26a676d5efe331b79e8575fc0fdfa2f709af5c49a9082ce9b9b42299c`

+This is useful fail-closed product evidence, not the required native Ubuntu or
+WSL2 model-mediated custody pass.
+
+The product `doctor` path now calls that same generated-canary production
+boundary instead of reporting readiness from static platform facts. The
+current Codex Linux distribution exceeds the old 256 MiB in-memory file cap,
+so executable identity is streamed and the Linux sandbox copy is rehashed
+before execution. Historical preregistered benchmark runner sources remain
+byte-identical.

+
+## Canopus v0.5.0 candidate preflight
+
+The first exact Sidon no-land preflight stopped safely with a null producer
+result. It created no artifact, did not invoke the frozen verifier, landed
+nothing, and changed no source-frontier or accepted-state byte. The run is
+non-authoritative research activity, not a negative scientific result.
+
+The initial diagnostic attempt exposed a product defect before a model call:
+`--no-land` still invoked `vela work`, so its disposable coordination lease
+made the frontier's separately recorded proof packet appear stale. Canopus
+commit `1e04dd8fa163ac05feeba2c6376cc35fac5a42b8` now keeps diagnostic runs
+root-exact by using the offer directly and recording `work.skipped`; landing
+runs still require the signed lease. Vela candidate commit
+`7a8613ba36f64595588aee85c6f5c181cb70905c` separately makes proof freshness
+insensitive only to `attempt.claimed` events. Its focused regression and an
+exact disposable Sidon `work` followed by strict check pass; every non-lease
+event remains freshness-bearing.

+The corrected registration does not broaden the worker input. It derives the

+
+## Canopus v0.3.0
+
+This release adds the one-command product path and proposal-scoped producer
+withdrawal over released Vela 0.901.0. The targeted Erdős proposal
+was rejected by the human and its signed terminal event now passes the
+read-only replay audit. The exact released binary pin and final release checks
+pass.
+
+ADR 0005 is Accepted. After a successful Deferred land and clean-clone
+reproduction, Canopus retains only the exact producer seed capable of signing
+that proposal's `proposal.withdrawn` event. It never mounts the capability in a
+worker or verifier, never auto-withdraws pending work, and consumes the secret
+after explicit withdrawal or an observed, strictly verified human terminal
+decision. The manifest also binds the successful run's exact strict-signal
+baseline so later invalid events cannot be normalized into trusted state.

+
+The reported-command defect was limited to two truthful
+`git rev-parse ... HEAD^{tree}` entries. Codex's JSONL shell trace encoded the
+same token as `HEAD''^{tree}`, so the frozen substring scorer did not match
+them. This is a measurement stop, not a Vela safety failure. The scorer,
+prompts, fixture semantics, and participant response were not modified after
+the scored run. The remaining three Stage A cells and all Stage B work remain
+unrun.
+
+## Canopus v0.1.9
+
+`v0.1.9` opens Stage A v4 after the first v3 model response exposed a
+controller isolation defect: Canopus had placed Codex's product sandbox inside
+an already active registered outer sandbox, so both attempted participant
+commands failed at sandbox initialization with exit 71.
+
+The stopped cell is retained as infrastructure evidence. It made one model
+call and emitted one controller score record, but is ineligible as a cold-use
+score because no participant command could execute. It made no authority
+attempt, accessed no human key, rewrote no historical event, changed no
+accepted state, and received no semantic maintainer guidance.
+
+The v4 controller uses the updated OpenAI-signed direct terminal Codex CLI
+`0.144.5` and Codex's documented external-sandbox mode. The registered Canopus
+macOS profile remains the sole bounded filesystem and task-network boundary.
+The fixture, prompts, answer contract, scorer semantics, and stop conditions
+remain unchanged.

+sandbox allowed the real `/private/tmp` Codex home while `CODEX_HOME` carried
+its lexical `/tmp` spelling. No model call or scored cell ran.
+
+The v2 controller binds lexical and real workspace, HOME, and CODEX_HOME paths

+
+The release gate installs from the frozen lockfile, runs all ordinary tests,
+downloads and verifies the published Vela binary, executes the real
+released-Vela integration, and inspects the package contents. The Stage A
+benchmark completed four of four native Codex cells safely, with zero defects,
+tool calls, authority attempts, child-falsity inferences, help requests, or
+interventions. The Vela representation used roughly half the context bytes of
+the standards profile on both frozen tasks while preserving identical exact
+roots and statuses.
+
+This is an internal n=1 interface-compression result. It carries no causal,
+scientific, human, independent, external, or authority credit and promotes no
+new truth-bearing protocol primitive.
+
+## Canopus v0.1.1
+
+`v0.1.1` was the repaired first public release. It preserves the `v0.1.0` source
+behavior while repairing its release-custody failure: ambient Git configuration
+had automatically SSH-signed the `v0.1.0` annotated tag with a human key during
+an agent session. The `v0.1.0` release commit was unsigned and the tag signature
+never entered Vela scientific authority, but any agent use of a human key is
+forbidden. The repository now disables commit and tag signing locally, and both
+the `v0.1.1` commit and annotated tag are explicitly unsigned.

+released-Vela composition test, and inspects the package contents. The explicit
+composition test proves:
+
+1. the mission target appears exactly once in the released `vela next` offer;
+2. `vela work` publishes the claimed session and passes strict replay;
+3. the worker and verifier remain separate bounded processes;
+4. Canopus delegates Receipt v1 authoring and landing to released Vela;
+5. signed policy routes the result to Defer with zero accepted-state delta;
+6. the retained receipt binds the exact artifacts and verifier result; and
+7. an ordinary clean clone reproduces the frozen result.
+
+No signing command, human-key read, external-use claim, or independent
+scientific verdict is part of the harness.

+- Withdrawal reason: its annotated tag carries an unintended human SSH
+  signature created by ambient Git configuration. This is release-custody
+  evidence only; it does not alter the source bytes or confer scientific
+  authority.
+
+A fresh clone of the withdrawn tag repeated 65 ordinary passes, one intentional
+released-binary skip, package inspection, and the explicit composition test.
+Those technical results remain valid, but `v0.1.0` is not the active release.
+
+## Earlier benchmark result
+
+The preregistered subagent proxy completed both same-information arms and
+returned `no_advantage`: both arms scored 6/6 with zero defects, review burden,
+or dead routes and equal downstream reuse. It is a small first-party proxy, so
+it receives no causal, native, external, or independent credit.
+
+After the provider subscription was replenished, the native Codex lane also
+completed and returned `no_advantage`: both same-information arms scored 6/6.
+The earlier zero-completion record remains diagnostic preflight history, not a
+negative model result. Exact registrations, raw results, and bounded
+diagnostics are in `benchmarks/`.
