+  Pi `0.80.3`.

+
+## Fix-round-3 evidence
+
+- PASS: backup staging RED/GREEN focused set `4/4`; full backup package; full Go race and build
+  across `18` packages. Staging now uses the repository `safeio` owner-only directory mechanisms,
+  rejects a symlinked installation ancestor on Unix, and includes a Windows-only owner-DACL test.
+- PASS: Windows amd64 static test/build cross-compile across `18` packages. Native execution of
+  the Windows-only ACL test was not available and is therefore PENDING, not PASS.
+- PASS on Node `v24.16.0`: deterministic provider security fixture `6/6`; authentication smoke
+  `8/8` across `frontend/e2e/auth.spec.ts` and authenticated `frontend/e2e/f1.spec.ts`. The
+  runtime sentinel was the exact fixture OIDC client secret and group bearer, and the retained
+  output leak scan passed.
+- PASS: shell syntax, unified-smoke safety self-tests, default/unified Compose contracts, and
+  Compose secret policy.
+- PASS: final unified Docker deployment smoke run `20260818054002-16619-2452`, bound to source
+  commit `e20bf33e2a00102192e5be66b178037aeca3a7b1`. It exercised the maintenance authentication
+  isolation check, restore, registry lifecycle, bad-candidate rollback, image revalidation, and
+  task-scoped cleanup.
+- PASS: Docker image traceability for all `5` images exercised by the final unified run. The
+  authentication browser smoke exercised no Docker images and is explicitly retained as an empty
+  image set.
+
+## Sanitized Docker image identities
+
+- `sha256:2008d4ef3b7c37ff2504a5257a3e946650795c1dbd16706fd22792e5503cbfa6`;

+  role `rollback-candidate`.
+
+For each image, the retained repository-digest component equals the listed image digest. Registry
+names and credentials are deliberately omitted.
+
+## Complete observed matrix
+
+- PASS: Task13 lifecycle carry-ins; platform-private restore staging; provider fixture `6/6`;
+  backend Node24 round-1 suite `75 files / 1081 tests`; frontend Node24 round-1 suite
+  `61 files / 444 tests`; current authentication/F1 browser smoke `8/8`; Go race/build
+  `18 packages`; Windows static cross-compile `18 packages`; harness round-1 suite
+  `921 passed / 4 L2 deselected`; authentication docs round-1 gate; shell/Compose contracts;
+  unified Docker smoke; five-image traceability; Docker cleanup.
+- FAIL: Ruff `192` known-baseline errors; MkDocs strict `69` known-baseline warnings; existing
+  canonical/workspace install wording checks; existing Pi model-policy check; deployment-coupling
+  scan against preserved ignored private material.
+- PENDING: native Windows execution because required host prerequisites are unavailable; L2
+  because the configured secret layout is unavailable; real PSD/manual acceptance because no real
+  identity/access is available; isolated provider readiness because an unrelated host port is
+  occupied.
+
+The authentication feature is **not release-complete** while required FAIL or PENDING gates remain.
+No secret values, real identities, internal endpoints, or registry names are retained.

-### Task 15 authentication release — automated evidence, release incomplete (2026-08-18)
+### Task 15 authentication release — final automated smoke PASS, release incomplete (2026-08-18)
 
 - Task 13 carry-ins are closed with focused TDD: restore acquires the lifecycle lock before
-  target-dependent preflight, stages/revalidates archive bytes and hashes under that lock, and uses
-  an opaque installation-bound transaction capability. Focused mutation/concurrency/lock-leak
-  tests and the full Go race/build gate pass.
-- PASS on the pinned Node `v24.16.0`: backend 75 files / 1081 tests plus typecheck/build; frontend
-  61 files / 444 tests plus typecheck/build and current Playwright 8/8 (7 authentication + 1 shared
-  F1); hermetic authentication smoke; round-1 provider security fixture 6/6; harness 921 passed /
-  4 L2 deselected; authentication-documentation smoke; installer shell test; relevant
-  Compose/security contracts. The default host Node is `v25.6.1`; it is not the release contract
-  and no tracked `v24.19.0` pin exists.
-- Task15 fix-round-1 source commits are `2b618c5a0f6f07045700cfe7146ca517fb5f78ab`
-  (provider/E2E) and `b2772f10a5729bf08bbd1f3dc6abc0cee1eb5043` (failed-run image
-  retention). The current unified Docker smoke is **FAIL**, reproduced twice at
-  `workspace_maintenance_auth_isolation`; both runs completed scoped cleanup. Docker image
-  traceability is PASS for the retained failed run: all 4 images exercised before that checkpoint
-  were inspected and revalidated before cleanup. Authentication smoke exercised no Docker image.
-- Sanitized evidence digests: `.artifacts/task-15/automated-gates.json`
-  `aa50c17880d6fff5af74f985aed888fce0d0d1a4608e9da241e1c1c1deb2d19c`;
+  target-dependent preflight; stages the immutable candidate and recovery archives under that lock;
+  accounts their combined capacity before mutation; and uses an opaque installation-bound
+  transaction capability. Restore staging uses the repository `safeio` owner-only mechanisms on
+  Unix and Windows rather than POSIX-mode assumptions.
+- Final tested source is `e20bf33e2a00102192e5be66b178037aeca3a7b1`; fix-round-2 commits
+  `fe190e7046acc173f510dddcb32f46ed142858c1` and follow-up
+  `4d230b840f99f33005a7c66566c16c48177e990b` remain intact in history. The final unified Docker
+  smoke is PASS for run `20260818054002-16619-2452`, including maintenance auth isolation,
+  restore, registry lifecycle, rollback, five-image revalidation, and task-scoped cleanup.
+- PASS on pinned Node `v24.16.0`: provider security fixture 6/6 and current authentication/F1
+  Playwright smoke 8/8 with the runtime sentinel used as the exact fixture credential and absent
+  from retained output. Round-1 full suites remain PASS: backend 75 files / 1081 tests, frontend
+  61 files / 444 tests, harness 921 passed / 4 L2 deselected. The host default Node is `v25.6.1`;
+  it is not the release contract and no tracked `v24.19.0` pin exists.
+- PASS: focused and full backup tests; full Go race/build across 18 packages; Windows amd64 static
+  test/build cross-compile across 18 packages; shell syntax and unified safety self-tests;
+  default/unified Compose and secret-policy contracts; final unified Docker smoke and cleanup.
+  Native execution of the Windows-only owner-DACL test was unavailable and remains PENDING.

-- Task15 fixture regressions in preprocess, server Pi-state, and Pi-auth Compose contracts were
-  repaired and their focused checks pass. Static Windows amd64 cross-build and test compilation
-  pass for 18 Go packages.
-- FAIL baseline evidence: Ruff reports 192 errors; MkDocs `--strict` exits 1 with 69 warnings;
-  the canonical-install and workspace-install-doc checks report existing manual wording mismatches;
-  the Pi user-auth Compose check reaches an existing model allow-list mismatch; and the broad
-  deployment-coupling scanner sees preserved ignored private deployment material.
-- PENDING evidence: native Windows execution (no KVM, `sshpass`, Windows container, or PowerShell);
-  real PSD/manual acceptance (no real test identity/access); L2 (no configured local secret layout);
-  and isolated provider-readiness Docker smoke (a host port is already occupied by an unrelated
