CURRENT FRONTIER
No successor empirical lane designated
PR #881 closes Track A Epoch 002 for its exact preregistered scope as CLOSED_BOUNDED_SAME_SYSTEM_NONINDEPENDENT. Any future independent replication or fresh empirical epoch requires a new controller, preregistration, evidence/custody plan, and explicit authorization; none is designated or authorized here.
accepted TRACK_A_EPOCH_002_POST_INTERPRETATION_DISPOSITION.jsonclosed controller #879new separately governed proposal only if future research is intentionally opened
Do not expose the operator-local numerical interpretation in general projections. Closure does not establish efficacy, independence, production readiness, certification, High-Assurance authorization, scientific-N promotion, or authorization for another empirical epoch.

TEKTITE MUTATION POLICY
Routine workflow mutation is blocked where history or source identity would be reinterpreted.
The dashboard now exposes the #939/#1135 policy projection directly: blocked workflow lanes stay visible as blocked, with the reconciliation action required before any ordinary immutable-action hardening can touch them.

Additional blocked lanes5 more workflow mutation lanes are encoded in the dashboard projection but collapsed here to keep the governance page readable. None grants authorization or widens the current claim ceiling.
