+
+## When delivery is required
+
+Read this guide when a request requires evidence handover before a session is
+archived. Complete that handover before archiving the session. Ordinary
+completion does not require an unsolicited upload or an extra full verification
+run solely to deliver evidence.
+
+Use explicit selected regular files, an ignored human-readable index, standard
+native tools and authorized retained storage. Keep originals until the named
+recipient or receiving role has independently received and checked every
+required item. A storage link or producer self-read is not that receipt.
+
+This guide adds no QFAI command, exporter, storage service, machine schema or
+runtime state. It does not change the plan, its gates or existing verdicts.
+
+## Identity and the ignored index
+
+Write the index in an ignored location outside the selected payload and keep
+its destination in the stage report or session handoff. Record:
+
+- target, scope, repository, branch and full source revision;
+- observed worktree/index state and the fingerprint of the selected input;
+- actual executable and build, command with separated argv, cwd, runtime,
+  input and time where observed;
+- each selected relative name, expected byte length and SHA-256 digest;
+- original results, excluded attempts and their original result and exclusion
+  reason, review identity, open work, owner and resume condition;
+- sharing authority, exclusions, destination, receiving role and retention.
+
+Use native Git observations such as `git rev-parse HEAD`,
+`git status --porcelain=v1 --untracked-files=all` and
+`git rev-parse --git-path index` to record the source and index. Where the index
+exists, record its raw-byte digest too. Recheck the revision, index and selected
+input before producing the archive. A changed revision/index or stale index
+entry stops delivery until the intended source and required inventory are
+established again. A dirty tree is disclosed with the selected-byte snapshot;
+its commit alone cannot identify the actual input or build used by an old run.
+
+Keep trusted expected selected sizes/digests, source identity and archive digest
+outside the delivered bundle. Compare the index with those expectations. A
+downloaded index cannot establish its own source or digest authority. Required
+selected-file or independent source/archive identity that is UNKNOWN refuses
+delivery; do not fabricate it from an unverified receipt.
+
+Historical executable, build, command or time that was not observed stays
+UNKNOWN. Known evidence may still be preserved, but unknown historical execution
+does not prove verification. Keep old-source PASS separate from current FAIL,
+UNRUN and delegated pending checks. Retain excluded failed attempts without
+changing their result. No delivery completes failed or unrun required
+verification, turns pending CI into PASS or relabels a review for another head.
+Existing `verify.json` fields, scope and statuses stay unchanged.
+
+## Selection and privacy
+
+Select only the files needed to resume this target. Do not recursively discover
+scratch, select a directory or copy a whole checkout. Give each required entry
+a canonical relative name with `/` separators, a known expected byte length and
+lowercase SHA-256 digest. Use a new owned staging root; keep the index and
+archive outside it.
+
+For portable names and unambiguous native listings, exclude control characters
+and components ending in a dot or space. If a required original uses such a
+name, review and identify a separately named copy before selecting it.
+
+Review the selected names and contents, sharing authority and destination before
+upload. Exclude credentials and unapproved private material. Record exclusions
+without exposing withheld values. If a reviewed or redacted copy is needed,
+identify it separately from the retained original and hash the bytes actually
+delivered. Neither hashes nor the preflight detect all secrets, automatically
+redact contents or establish privacy completeness.
+
+The preflight below reads only the explicit selection. It refuses unsafe names,
+missing or non-regular entries, linked root/ancestors/leaves, hardlinks,
+duplicate normalized names, case collisions and wrong or changed byte identity.
+It checks observations again during and after reading. These observations are
+not an atomic snapshot or protection against every concurrent adversary.
+
+## Native preflight
+
+Save this single block verbatim as an owned temporary `.mjs` file. Run it with
+the installed Node executable and separated argv:
+
+`node <saved-preflight.mjs> <absolute-root> <relative-name> <decimal-byte-length> <lowercase-sha256> [more triples]`
+
+Use the same block and trusted expected triples for source, staged copy and
+receiver roots. There is no collection/receiver mode and no input from stdin.
+The block changes no file. Exit 0 and `Verified N selected files.` mean only
+that this selection passed these checks. Exit 1 refuses it; neither result
+proves sharing authority, storage access, historical execution or handover.

+
+## Copy and archive
+
+After source preflight succeeds, copy only those selected files to the new owned
+staging root. Use a native literal-path copy or Node's `fs.copyFileSync`; create
+only their listed parent directories. Do not decode, rewrite or normalize
+binary data, encoding markers, LF or CRLF. Re-run the exact preflight block on
+staging with the trusted source expectations immediately before native tar.
+If anything changes or cannot be read, stop before archive and keep originals.
+
+Use the installed native tar executable with separated argv, for example:
+
+- create: `tar -cf <absolute-bundle.tar> -C <absolute-staging-root> ./<selected-name> ...`
+- list: `tar -tf <absolute-bundle.tar>`
+- extract: `tar -xf <absolute-bundle.tar> -C <fresh-absolute-receiver-root>`
+
+Prefix each selected name with `./` to avoid option or archive-inclusion
+interpretation. Select no directory and use no wildcard or shell interpolation.
+Check the actual listing against the exact expected member set: each required
+name occurs once, with no unexpected or missing member. Record the actual
+executable/version, argv, cwd, platform, exit/signal and stdout/stderr. A missing
+tool or failed command is not successful production. Different native tar
+implementations need not produce identical archive container bytes.
+
+Calculate the produced archive's raw-byte SHA-256 and record it with the trusted
+source and selected expectations outside the archive. Archive digest identity
+alone does not prove file provenance, privacy or recipient access.
+
+## Retained storage and receipt
+
+Before upload, establish existing authority for this target and payload,
+destination privacy, the named recipient or receiving role, required access and
+retention. A visible storage link grants none of these. Use an existing
+authorized retained channel; do not create a paid service or publish private raw
+evidence by assumption. Preserve actual upload results and artifact identity.
+
+The ignored receiving receipt records who received the evidence, retrieval time,
+destination and artifact identity, retrieved items, independently checked source
+and archive identity, every required size/digest result and missing evidence.
+Keep its reference in the stage report or handoff. A required item or receipt
+that is unavailable, expired, denied, incomplete or mismatched leaves handover
+pending, records the blocker and resume condition, and retains originals.
+
+## Independent receiver
+
+The receiver independently retrieves every required item from retained storage;
+producer self-read or index visibility is insufficient. Supply trusted source,
+archive digest and selected-file expectations through a separate authorized
+channel. Check the archive's actual raw-byte digest and source identity against
+those expectations before extraction. Refuse a mismatched or unknown archive.
+
+Extract only this known-safe producer archive into a fresh owned receiving root.
+This procedure does not safely extract arbitrary third-party archives. Check
+the exact member set and re-run the same preflight on the extracted regular
+files with the trusted expected triples. Compare the index's target/source and
+inventory with the separately supplied expectations. Missing, duplicated,
+unexpected, linked or altered members do not produce an accepted receipt.
+
+Only the named recipient's actual complete receiving proof allows the requested
+handover to complete before real session archive. Local producer checks cannot
+stand in for it. Preserve unrelated receiver contents and originals when proof
+fails; do not destroy or silently replace them to make the receipt pass.
+
+## Failure and proof limits
+
+On unsafe selection, changed source or index, missing evidence, unknown required
+identity, denied access, expiry or mismatched bytes, stop dependent delivery and
+archive. Name the observed blocker, missing item, owner and resume condition.
+Keep actual failure output and originals. Required verification FAIL, UNRUN or
+pending remains incomplete even if some evidence was successfully delivered.
+
+Generic capability acceptance requires actual native Linux and Windows
+producers and separate Linux and Windows hosted receivers. Each receiver must
+retrieve both retained producer artifacts and independently check their bytes,
+digests and source identity: all four transfer directions need actual proof.
+Executing only the instructions or reading one's own output is insufficient.
+
+That controlled CI receipt proves the tested capability. It does not establish
+this session's real successor access, long-term retention, a session archive or
+general sharing permission. Historical metadata remains UNKNOWN where absent.
+The preflight is neither an automatic secret scanner, an exporter nor an atomic
+concurrent-adversary guarantee. Native archives are not a general safe restore
+engine. Report these limits with the actual observations.

+For `owned-temporary-cleanup`, read the user's current request or standing
+instruction, the task's ownership evidence and the exact allowed temporary
+scope before setting it. Empty artifacts, ignored files and available tools
+prove no authority. Host-managed scratch roots, external paths, other tasks'
+files and tracked files are outside this qualifier. Unknown scope, ownership,
+authority or use does not qualify.
+
+The qualifier requires `intent: order` and `artifacts: []`. The same rule
+applies to an alternative: its intent must be `order`, and every reading
+shares the extraction's empty artifacts. The CLI refuses other combinations
+as schema errors. Security, fixed signals, human-run and release routing keep
+their earlier priority. A host denial does not make a request human-run, and
+the cleanup step stops rather than bypassing it. Planning never deletes a
+target; the step must recheck the authority and actual paths before acting.
