+claim: The bounded offline stabilization gate and durable 0.3.1 release evidence were
+  committed without feedback/, passed all GitHub checks, and merged into main.
+method: Explicit staging allowlist, committed-path inspection, local repository gates,
+  remote branch identity, GitHub PR check rollup, protected merge, main fetch, ancestry,
+  and evidence-presence inspection.
+command: git add/commit/push/fetch/merge-base/cat-file; python -m pytest; skill and
+  protocol validators; gh pr create/checks/view/merge.
+result: passed
+scope: Branch chore/1.0-stabilization-gate, commit
+  4657f81aa6385fd4cb4927352c910c3ef2669de6, PR 53, and main merge revision
+  935f5a792be03bc61b7776f38025fa53d967c8c5.
+limitations:
+- feedback/ remained untracked and was not reviewed, committed, or pushed.
+- No version bump, tag, release, registry publication, live model call, production
+  action, or public comparative speed claim occurred.
+- Real field evidence remains absent; the empty template correctly fails closed.

+
+| Criterion | Result | Evidence | Limitation |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| AC1 - Scope preservation | Passed | Unique branch/PR; explicit allowlist; committed-path inspection contained no feedback/ | feedback/ remains local user data |
+| AC2 - Verification | Passed | Local full pytest 294/294, skill-suite valid, protocol valid, diff clean; GitHub CI run 30164643872 passed Python, package, six native, and npm jobs | Skipped routing jobs were not applicable |
+| AC3 - Commit identity | Passed | Commit 4657f81 contains exactly 11 intended stabilization/memory paths; remote head matched | Prior commit 8748fb3 supplied durable WORK-051 closeout evidence |
+| AC4 - PR gates | Passed | PR 53 targeted main; 17 rollup entries had zero blockers and merge state was CLEAN | No admin bypass used |
+| AC5 - Main integration | Passed | PR 53 merged 2026-07-25T15:59:32Z; origin/main is 935f5a7, contains 4657f81, and includes EVIDENCE-053 | This closeout is a follow-up memory-only reconciliation |

+Decision: **stabilization gate integrated into main**. Runtime design stays frozen
+until twenty genuine v0.3.1 observations justify one consolidated review.
