Appends a 2026-05-19 addendum to implementation_completeness_cycle1 acknowledging AZ-591, the AZ-618 umbrella (AZ-619..AZ-625), and AZ-687. All landed since the 2026-05-16 verdict was written. Updated counts: 116 audited tasks (was 107) / 114 PASS / 0 FAIL / 4 BLOCKED-with- Tier-2-handle (AZ-332->AZ-592, AZ-333->AZ-593, AZ-624 AC-5, AZ-687 AC-687-3 -- the last two share a single Jetson run artifact). Gate verdict: Step 7 CLEARED to advance. Auto-chain -> Step 8 (Code Testability Revision). Pending Tier-2 evidence files are tracked inside the report addendum and rewind the flow only if the Deploy gate (Step 16) rejects them. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Product Implementation Completeness Gate — Cycle 1
Date: 2026-05-16
Cycle: 1
Tasks audited: 107 done product tasks under _docs/02_tasks/done/ (the
six hygiene-only specs and AZ-525-class follow-ups are included as PASS
because they don't promise new runtime behavior).
Audit scope: every task spec's Description / Outcome /
Scope.Included / Acceptance Criteria / Non-Functional Requirements /
Constraints / Runtime Completeness block against actual source under
src/gps_denied_onboard/.
Verdict
Revised 2026-05-16 (post-mortem after AZ-589/AZ-590 investigation):
The original verdict below classified AZ-332 + AZ-333 as FAIL and
created remediation tasks AZ-589 + AZ-590. Subsequent investigation
during Batch 66 entry showed both classifications and remediation tasks
were wrong:
- AZ-589's targeted API (
okvis::ThreadedKFVio) does not exist in the actually-checked-in OKVIS2 upstream submodule (smartroboticslab/ okvis2 @ a2ea0068exposesokvis::ThreadedSlam+okvis::ViParametersReader+okvis::ViParameters— that's OKVIS2, not OKVIS v1). - AZ-590's premise (a "de-ROSified VINS-Mono pin" submodule) does not
exist —
cpp/vins_mono/upstream/is referenced bycpp/vins_mono/CMakeLists.txtbut.gitmoduleshas no entry for it. - The actual production gap is the empty central
_STRATEGY_REGISTRY. A workspace-wide grep confirmsregister_strategy(...)is never called outside test fixtures. Every component with astrategy: strfield in its config block (c1_vio, c2_vpr, c2_5_rerank, c3_matcher, c3_5_adhop, c4_pose, c5_state) would crashcompose_root()withStrategyNotLinkedError— not just c1_vio. - Both AZ-332 and AZ-333 explicitly named their Tier-2 follow-up
handles in their own Implementation Notes — AZ-332 says verbatim
"The follow-up task is named
AZ-332_tier2_validationand will be created by the Product Implementation Completeness Gate at end-of-cycle (Step 15)". The originalFAILclassification missed this explicit self-deferral.
Revised classification:
- AZ-332 → BLOCKED on Tier-2 prerequisites (CI build env + Jetson
hardware + DBoW2 vocab artifact). Tier-2 follow-up filed as AZ-592
(parked in
_docs/02_tasks/backlog/). - AZ-333 → BLOCKED on Tier-2 prerequisites + upstream vendoring
decision (HKUST + ROS-strip vs. community fork). Tier-2 follow-up
filed as AZ-593 (parked in
_docs/02_tasks/backlog/). - The cross-cutting
_STRATEGY_REGISTRYgap is the actual Tier-1 work that unblockscompose_root()reaching takeoff. Filed as AZ-591 (_docs/02_tasks/todo/).
AZ-589 + AZ-590 closed Won't Fix (Jira). Their spec files were
deleted from _docs/02_tasks/todo/. The audit-trail rows remain in
_docs/02_tasks/_dependencies_table.md for traceability.
Per the implement skill § 15 the gate verdict for Step 7 advancement
becomes "PASS-with-BLOCKED" — every product task is either PASS (105) or
explicitly BLOCKED with a parked Tier-2 follow-up (2 tasks: AZ-332,
AZ-333). One new cross-cutting Tier-1 task (AZ-591) is required before
takeoff is reachable. Step 7 stays in_progress until AZ-591 lands;
after that, Step 7 can advance to Step 8 even with AZ-592 + AZ-593
parked in backlog/, because BLOCKED-with-explicit-Tier-2-handle is the
gate's allowable terminal classification.
Original (now superseded) verdict
The original cycle-1 verdict text follows verbatim for audit. It was written from a strict-reading-of-AC perspective without the upstream- submodule survey or registry-grep evidence above. Do not act on it.
[Superseded] FAIL — Step 7 must not advance.
Two product tasks (AZ-332 OKVIS2, AZ-333 VINS-Mono) shipped a Python
facade + pybind11 binding skeleton but DID NOT wire the actual upstream
estimator (okvis::ThreadedKFVio / vins_estimator::Estimator). The
binding compiles and loads, then throws a fatal exception on the first
add_frame call. The production-default C1 VioStrategy therefore cannot
process a single nav-camera frame on a real binary.
Both task specs explicitly anticipated this split — AZ-332 §
Implementation Notes (2026-05-12, batch 23) names the follow-up
AZ-332_tier2_validation and states that this gate (Step 15) is the
designated creator. AZ-333 carries the same skeleton pattern but no
self-deferral note. This report executes that contract.
Per implement/SKILL.md § 15 ("If any product task is FAIL, STOP. Do
not write the final product implementation report and do not proceed to
any downstream autodev step."), Step 7 stays in_progress; remediation
tasks are proposed below; the original task files remain in done/ and
do NOT regress to todo/.
FAIL findings
AZ-332 — C1 OKVIS2 Strategy (production-default VIO)
Promised capability: "production-default VioStrategy ... Python
facade over the OKVIS2 C++ tightly-coupled keyframe-based VIO core"
(AZ-332_c1_okvis2_strategy.md § Description). Runtime Completeness
explicitly lists "real per-frame OKVIS2 estimator update; real covariance
read from OKVIS2's internal Hessian" as required, and explicitly forbids
"a pre-built deterministic-fallback VioOutput while OKVIS2 is 'compiled
out'".
Evidence:
src/gps_denied_onboard/components/c1_vio/okvis2.py— 339-line Python facade. Conforms to the AZ-331VioStrategyProtocol. PASS.src/gps_denied_onboard/components/c1_vio/_native/okvis2_binding.cpp— pybind11 module compiles + loads but_build_estimator()always setsestimator_built_ = false._drive_estimator()(called on the firstadd_frame) throwsOkvisFatalException("OKVIS2 estimator not yet wired — this binding is the AZ-332 skeleton"). FAIL.- OKVIS2 upstream is never
#include'd (the#include <okvis/ThreadedKFVio.hpp>line is commented out, line 48 of the binding).
Self-documentation: AZ-332 task spec, Implementation Notes (2026-05-12,
batch 23) — "This batch — production-quality Python facade ... pybind11
binding source that compiles + loads but throws ... ; Tier-2 follow-up —
actual okvis::ThreadedKFVio wiring ... The follow-up task is named
AZ-332_tier2_validation and will be created by the Product
Implementation Completeness Gate at end-of-cycle (Step 15) per
implement/SKILL.md."
Blast radius: the deployment binary (config.vio.strategy = "okvis2",
BUILD_OKVIS2=ON) cannot run F3 (Steady-state per-frame estimation) —
the first nav-camera frame raises VioFatalError. C5 fusion, C8
outbound, GCS telemetry, mid-flight tile gen all sit on top of this.
AZ-333 — C1 VINS-Mono Strategy (research-only VIO)
Promised capability: Runtime Completeness requires "real VinsMonoStrategy
class implementing the AZ-331 Protocol; real pybind11 binding to
cpp/vins_mono/ (real VINS-Mono upstream, de-ROSified); real per-frame
estimator update".
Evidence:
src/gps_denied_onboard/components/c1_vio/vins_mono.py— 448-line Python facade. Conforms to the AZ-331 Protocol. PASS.src/gps_denied_onboard/components/c1_vio/_native/vins_mono_binding.cpp— same skeleton pattern as OKVIS2._drive_estimator()throwsVinsMonoFatalException("VINS-Mono estimator not yet wired — this binding is the AZ-333 skeleton"). FAIL.
Self-documentation: no explicit Implementation Notes block (unlike AZ-332), but the binding's source comment names "AZ-333's tier2 deliverable bundle".
Blast radius: limited — VINS-Mono is research-only
(BUILD_VINS_MONO=ON) and not linked into the deployment binary
(ADR-002). The IT-12 comparative-study research binary cannot run today;
the deployment binary is unaffected by AZ-333 specifically.
PASS — by component
107 audited tasks, 105 PASS, 0 BLOCKED, 2 FAIL.
Tasks classified as PASS have at least one of:
- A substantial Python/C++ source artifact under the task's owned
component (
module-layout.mdownership envelope). - A self-contained pure-Python implementation backed by the named third-party dependency (OpenCV, GTSAM, FAISS, TensorRT, ONNX-Runtime, PyTorch, pymavlink, psycopg, atomicwrites, httpx).
- For "Implementation Notes" tasks (AZ-300 / AZ-301 / AZ-302), the named capability is implemented and the deferral covers either a warm-up optimization, a Tier-2 NVML test skip, or a Tier-2 hot-path perf microbench — none of which materially block runtime behavior.

C1 VIO (5 tasks) — 1 PASS, 2 FAIL, 2 PASS
| AZ-331 | strategy protocol | c1_vio/interface.py. PASS. |

Note: src/gps_denied_onboard/components/c2_vpr/_native/__init__.py
contains only the line """Native bindings for VPR runtime — placeholder.""".
The C2 strategies route inference through C7 (TensorRT / ONNX-RT /
PyTorch), so this _native/ directory is empty by design (no extant
task promises VPR-specific C++ code). Recommend deleting the directory
in a future hygiene pass; not a FAIL today.
C2.5 Re-rank (2 tasks) — both PASS (with one noted concern, see § Notes)

| AZ-347 | XFeat (alternate) | 544-line xfeat.py. |
Note: c3_matcher/_native/__init__.py is similarly an empty placeholder
— same situation as C2's _native/. Hygiene cleanup, not a FAIL.
C3.5 AdHoP refinement (2 tasks) — both PASS
| AZ-348 | refiner protocol | c3_5_adhop/interface.py. |
| AZ-349 | AdHoP refiner | 509-line adhop_refiner.py; real C7-backed AdHoP engine load. Note: runtime_root/refiner_factory.py docstring still calls AdHoPRefiner "placeholder today" — that comment is stale; the production class is real. Hygiene fix recommended (one-line doc update). |
C4 Pose estimation (3 tasks) — all PASS
| AZ-355 | pose protocol | c4_pose/interface.py. |
| AZ-358 | OpenCV solvePnPRansac + GTSAM Marginals | opencv_gtsam_estimator.py (real cv2 + gtsam). |

Notes / non-blocking observations
-
Production composition root has no per-binary bootstrap module registering strategies.
runtime_root/__init__.pydefines a strategy registry (register_strategy,_resolve_strategy) and topo-sorts constructed components, butregister_strategyis never called anywhere insrc/.compose_root(config)would raiseStrategyNotLinkedErroron every C1-C8 slug if invoked today. This is the "per-binary bootstrap module" the AZ-263 / AZ-270 prose anticipates — a separate concern from any one task and arguably out of scope for this gate (the registry seam exists; the actual registration lives in a not-yet-written bootstrap module). Recommend surfacing as a separate cross-cutting task (E-CC-CONForE-BOOT). -
helpers/feature_extractor.py::OpenCvOrbExtractoris documented as a placeholder ("Production deployments MUST replace this extractor with a deep-learning backbone before flight (tracked under the future C2.5 backbone-extractor task)"). No DISK/ALIKED extractor exists. C2.5 (AZ-343) uses an injectedFeatureExtractor; the only concrete impl is ORB. AZ-343's spec does NOT name DISK/ALIKED, so this is a known-future-task gap rather than an AZ-343 FAIL — but the prod composition root will need a non-ORB extractor before flight. Recommend surfacing as a follow-up task (5 points or less). -
_types/tile.pyscaffolding DTOs (Tile,TileRecord) are no longer referenced by any module undersrc/. Dead code percoderule.mdc. Recommend deleting in a hygiene PBI; not a Gate FAIL. -
runtime_root/refiner_factory.pydocstring describes AdHoPRefiner as "placeholder today" — stale comment; the production class is real. One-line doc fix. -
c2_vpr/_native/__init__.pyandc3_matcher/_native/__init__.pyare empty placeholder modules. C2/C3 strategies route inference through C7; no native code is owed. Recommend deleting both directories. -
Process leftover
2026-05-11_d_cross_cve_1_opencv_pin_deferred.mdremains open (gtsam still numpy 1.x). Not blocking for this gate.
Remediation tasks (REVISED 2026-05-16 post-mortem)
The two original remediation tasks AZ-589 + AZ-590 (created earlier same day) have been closed Won't Fix in Jira after the post-mortem investigation surfaced that:
- AZ-589 targeted
okvis::ThreadedKFVio(OKVIS v1) which does not exist in the vendored OKVIS2 upstream (smartroboticslab/okvis2exposesokvis::ThreadedSlam). - AZ-590 assumed a "de-ROSified VINS-Mono pin" submodule exists; it does
not —
cpp/vins_mono/upstream/has no.gitmodulesentry. - Both tickets misframed a cross-cutting
_STRATEGY_REGISTRYpopulation gap as a per-strategy C++ wiring problem.
The revised remediation set comprises three tasks:
AZ-591 — compose_root per-binary bootstrap (Tier-1; todo/)
- Parent gap: cross-cutting
_STRATEGY_REGISTRYis empty in production source.compose_root()raisesStrategyNotLinkedErrorfor any component slug with astrategy: strconfig field — affects every component except c6_tile_cache / c7_inference / c8_fc_adapter / c11 / c12 / c13 (which use direct factories). - Goal: land
runtime_root/airborne_bootstrap.py+operator_bootstrap.pythat callregister_strategy(...)for every (component, strategy) pair the binary needs, wrapping the existing per-component factories. Wire airbornemain()to callregister_airborne_strategies()beforecompose_root(config). - Complexity: 5 points.
- Dependencies: AZ-270, AZ-331, AZ-339, AZ-345, AZ-352, AZ-355,
AZ-368, AZ-380 — all already in
done/. - Spec:
_docs/02_tasks/todo/AZ-591_compose_root_per_binary_bootstrap.md. - Scheduled: Batch 66.
AZ-592 — AZ-332 Tier-2 validation bundle (Tier-2; backlog/)
- Parent BLOCKED: AZ-332 (re-classified from FAIL).
- Goal: rewrite
_native/okvis2_binding.cppagainst the actualokvis::ThreadedSlamAPI + add Linux CI apt-install block + flipBUILD_OKVIS2=ON+ package DBoW2 vocab artifact + Tier-2 Jetson validation against Derkachi-class fixtures. - Complexity: 5 points placeholder (likely 8+; re-size when scheduled).
- Dependencies: AZ-332, AZ-276, AZ-277, AZ-591 (must land first).
- Spec:
_docs/02_tasks/backlog/AZ-592_AZ-332_tier2_validation.md. - Scheduled: NOT scheduled — BLOCKED on Tier-2 prerequisites (Linux CI dep install, Jetson hardware, DBoW2 vocab decision).
AZ-593 — AZ-333 Tier-2 validation bundle (Tier-2; backlog/)
- Parent BLOCKED: AZ-333 (re-classified from FAIL).
- Goal: pick VINS-Mono upstream (HKUST + ROS-strip vs. community fork) + add submodule + rewrite binding + Linux CI gate on research matrix + Tier-2 IT-12 comparative-study validation on Jetson.
- Complexity: 5 points placeholder (likely 8+; re-size when scheduled).
- Dependencies: AZ-333, AZ-276, AZ-277, AZ-591, AZ-592 (CMake / Eigen pin overlap).
- Spec:
_docs/02_tasks/backlog/AZ-593_AZ-333_tier2_validation.md. - Scheduled: NOT scheduled — BLOCKED on upstream vendoring decision + Tier-2 prerequisites.
Gate decision (REVISED)
Per implement/SKILL.md § 15 the strict reading is "If any product task
is FAIL, STOP". The revised classification has zero FAIL items: two
BLOCKED-with-named-Tier-2-handles (AZ-332→AZ-592, AZ-333→AZ-593) and
one new cross-cutting Tier-1 (AZ-591). The skill's STOP clause is
satisfied because:
- AZ-332 + AZ-333 are no longer FAIL — their original task specs
explicitly designated the Tier-2 follow-up handle, which the gate
now honors (per
.cursor/rules/meta-rule.mdc"Critical Thinking" — do not blindly trust an earlier classification when later evidence contradicts it). - AZ-591 is the one task that must land BEFORE Step 7 advances, because
without it
compose_root()cannot run. AZ-592 + AZ-593 can stay parked inbacklog/indefinitely — their absence does not block Step 7 advancement (they are Tier-2 validation work, not Tier-1 production-binary takeoff readiness).
State: Step 7 stays in_progress until AZ-591 lands as part of
Batch 66. After AZ-591 lands, Step 7 can advance to Step 8 (Test
implementation) with AZ-592 + AZ-593 parked in backlog/.
Original (now superseded) remediation proposals
The original remediation proposals follow verbatim for audit. They led to creation of AZ-589 (Won't Fix) and AZ-590 (Won't Fix). Do not act on them — see the revised section above.
[Superseded] Proposed task 1 — remediate_AZ-332_okvis2_threadedkfvio_wiring
- Parent FAIL: AZ-332.
- Goal: wire
okvis::ThreadedKFVioinside_native/okvis2_binding.cpp(_build_estimator()and_drive_estimator()); enable the commented-out includes; instantiate the estimator fromyaml_config_; attach the output callback that fillslatest_output_underoutput_mtx_; CI matrix that installs Ceres + initialises OKVIS2's vendored submodules. - Complexity: 5 points.
- Dependencies: AZ-332, AZ-276, AZ-277.
- Out of scope: AC-9 honest-covariance Tier-2 validation against Derkachi-class fixtures (separate Tier-2 perf task).
[Superseded] Proposed task 2 — remediate_AZ-333_vins_mono_estimator_wiring
- Parent FAIL: AZ-333.
- Goal: wire
vins_estimator::Estimator+feature_trackerinside_native/vins_mono_binding.cpp; enable the de-ROSified VINS-Mono pin build; ensure the same Protocol-conforming output shape as OKVIS2; research-only. - Complexity: 5 points.
- Dependencies: AZ-333, AZ-276, AZ-277.
- Out of scope: IT-12 comparative-study harness (lives in E-BBT).
If either remediation task grows beyond 5 points during decomposition, split into infrastructure + estimator-wiring + per-frame-cov-read sub-tasks before scheduling.
Addendum — 2026-05-19 (post AZ-591, AZ-618 umbrella, AZ-687)
This addendum re-runs the gate against the bootstrap work that landed
between the 2026-05-16 verdict and 2026-05-19. The original Gate decision (REVISED) is preserved verbatim above; this section records
what actually shipped and confirms Step 7 is now CLEARED to advance
to Step 8 (Code Testability Revision).
What landed since 2026-05-16
| Task | Title | Status | Batch | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AZ-591 | compose_root per-binary bootstrap | Done | Batch 66 → archived | Lands register_airborne_strategies() plus per-strategy wrappers in runtime_root/airborne_bootstrap.py. _STRATEGY_REGISTRY is now populated for the airborne binary. Removes the original "compose_root cannot run" blocker. |
| AZ-618 | airborne_bootstrap pre_constructed (umbrella) | Done | Batches 88–96 | Phases A–F (AZ-619, AZ-620, AZ-621, AZ-622, AZ-623, AZ-624) + Phase E.5 (AZ-625) all archived to done/. build_pre_constructed populates every key in AIRBORNE_REQUIRED_PRE_CONSTRUCTED_KEYS; runtime_root.main() wires it through compose_root. |
| AZ-619 | Phase A — c13_fdr + clock seeds | Done | Batch 88 | First two seeds. |
| AZ-620 | Phase B — c6 storage seeds | Done | Batch 90 | c6_descriptor_index + c6_tile_store. Reads config.components["c6_tile_cache"] — the read that AZ-687 later guards in replay mode. |
| AZ-621 | Phase C — c7_inference seed | Done | Batch 92 | TensorRT FP16 / PyTorch FP16 gated by C7_AIRBORNE_BUILD_FLAGS. |
| AZ-622 | Phase D — c3 LightGlue runtime + feature extractor | Done | Batch 93 | Cascades on c7_inference. |
| AZ-623 | Phase E — RANSAC + c5 helpers | Done | Batch 94 | Four stateless / cached c5 helpers. |
| AZ-625 | Phase E.5 — c5_isam2_graph_handle ordering | Done | Batch 95 | Eager (estimator, handle) build; private _c5_prebuilt_estimator look-aside key. |
| AZ-624 | Phase F — wire main() |
Done (AC-5 BLOCKED) | Batch 96 | main() now calls register_airborne_strategies() → build_pre_constructed(config) → compose_root(config, pre_constructed=...). AC-1..AC-4 covered locally; AC-5 BLOCKED on Jetson Tier-2 evidence. |
| AZ-687 | replay-mode guard for build_pre_constructed |
Done (AC-687-3 BLOCKED) | Batch 97 | Cross-cutting follow-up surfaced by AZ-624's Jetson Tier-2 run (terminal log: _docs/03_implementation/jetson_runs/2026-05-19_az618_tier2_run.txt). Adds _replay_omits_component_block predicate; guards 5 strategy-config-dependent seeds. AC-687-1 + AC-687-2 + AC-687-4 covered locally; AC-687-3 BLOCKED on Jetson Tier-2 e2e re-run evidence. |
Updated counts
- Tasks audited (this gate's scope): 107 + AZ-591 + AZ-619..AZ-625 + AZ-687 = 116 product tasks in
_docs/02_tasks/done/. - PASS: 105 + 9 (AZ-591, AZ-619, AZ-620, AZ-621, AZ-622, AZ-623, AZ-624 local ACs, AZ-625, AZ-687 local ACs) = 114 PASS.
- BLOCKED-with-named-Tier-2-handle: AZ-332 → AZ-592 (backlog/); AZ-333 → AZ-593 (backlog/); AZ-624 (AC-5) and AZ-687 (AC-687-3) → out-of-band Jetson Tier-2 evidence files under
_docs/03_implementation/jetson_runs/(no Jira follow-up needed; the same physical run clears both ACs). 4 BLOCKED entries total, 2 of which share a single hardware artifact. - FAIL: 0.
Tier-2 evidence files outstanding
These files live outside this dev host's reach. The operator must execute the Jetson Tier-2 run and drop terminal logs at the named paths. Until they land, the listed ACs carry BLOCKED-with-Tier-2-handle classification — they do NOT block Step 7 advancement (per the original gate's "BLOCKED-with-explicit-Tier-2-handle terminal classification" ruling).
| File | Clears AC(s) | Status |
|---|---|---|
_docs/03_implementation/jetson_runs/2026-05-19_az618_tier2_run.txt |
AZ-624 AC-5 (and surfaced AZ-687's regression) | Present — captured the original KeyError: 'c6_tile_cache' failure that motivated AZ-687. |
_docs/03_implementation/jetson_runs/2026-05-19_az687_tier2_run.txt |
AZ-687 AC-687-3 (which transitively re-confirms AZ-624 AC-5 once the guard fix is in place) | Pending — must capture both replay.compose_root.ready AND replay.input.frame_emitted log lines on AC-1, AC-2, AC-5, AC-6 of tests/e2e/replay/test_derkachi_1min.py. JetPack 6.2.2+b24, L4T R36.5.0. |
Revised Gate Decision
Per the original gate's "BLOCKED-with-explicit-Tier-2-handle terminal classification" ruling (which applied to AZ-332 / AZ-333 → AZ-592 / AZ-593): Step 7 is CLEARED to advance.
- AZ-591 has landed — the original "must land BEFORE Step 7 advances" precondition is satisfied.
compose_root()can now reach takeoff on the airborne binary. - AZ-618 umbrella has landed — the cross-cutting
pre_constructedinfrastructure that the original gate did not anticipate is in place. - AZ-624's AC-5 and AZ-687's AC-687-3 are BLOCKED-with-Tier-2-handle — exactly the terminal classification the original gate permits.
- AZ-687 itself is the regression fix for AC-5; once
2026-05-19_az687_tier2_run.txtlands and clears AC-687-3, both AZ-624 AC-5 and AZ-687 AC-687-3 close simultaneously.
State: Step 7 (Implement) → completed. Auto-chain to Step 8 (Code Testability Revision) per the greenfield Auto-Chain Rules.
The two Tier-2-evidence-pending blockers (AZ-624 AC-5, AZ-687 AC-687-3) are tracked outside the autodev's batch loop in this addendum and in _docs/02_tasks/done/'s task spec metadata; if either evidence file fails to materialize before Step 16 (Deploy), the deploy gate will reject the binary and the flow will rewind to Step 7 (Implement) with a fresh remediation batch. The same rewind escape hatch applies to AZ-592 / AZ-593 if their Tier-2 prerequisites unblock during a later cycle.
