Live stable and RC archive metadata exceed 256 MiB; retain a streaming bounded 512 MiB archive/16 KiB signature/1 GiB binary contract instead. Disable automatic setup caches in the CI credential job and encode derived command outputs with the reviewed writer. Add regressions; do not relax workflow or release guards.

Reuse the signed-install lifecycle assertions on a fresh public hosted VM without Docker identity overrides. Bind immutable release assets/control, observe one real UI apply/SSE/modal journey, retain sanitised terminal evidence and stop access refusals without reauthentication. Update the deployment contract and execute its recovery-access guard; release judgment and gates are unchanged.
