+ * that has a compliance arm. Three pieces carry it:

  *   - the skill condition (CURATION_GATED_SKILLS in src/core/plugins.ts):
  *     installViaFileCopy leaves the skill out when curation is off;
- *   - {@link convergeCurationVariants}, below: the converge that makes an
- *     ALREADY-installed tree match the switch, run by `devflow init` after the
- *     file copy and by `devflow curation --enable/--disable` after the switch is
- *     written ({@link applyCurationToggle}).
+ *   - {@link convergeVariantAxes}, below: the one converge that makes an
+ *     ALREADY-installed tree match both switches, run by `devflow init` after the
+ *     file copy and by `devflow curation` and `devflow compliance` after the switch is
+ *     written ({@link applyVariantToggle}).
  *
  * The converge, decided in turn:
- *   - Its roster is the files that exist under dist/curation-off, not a list typed
- *     here: the build owns which hosts have an arm, so a new arm is converged with

+ *     which hosts have an arm, so a new arm is converged with no edit to this file.
+ *   - It fails closed on the posting question. With compliance off, an installed

+ *     manifest that cannot name those hosts leaves `posting` unknown. Callers decide the cost:
