 The report must show `status: "passed"` before the owner can mark the capped
 pilot go. Until then, missing proof rows are blockers, not warnings.
 
+## Ops Command Surface
+
+The ops proof command is branch-local until issue #135 merges:
+
+```powershell
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot:ops
+```
+
+It verifies that the owner-pilot scripts parse, dry-run mode needs no live RPC
+URL or private key, live mode refuses missing acknowledgement/env values,
+emergency stop prints the pause recovery command, and evidence export excludes
+secret-shaped files.
+
+Live owner actions require explicit local shell env vars and are not run by the
+proof command. The command surface is:
+
+```powershell
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot -- --Mode Live --Action Deploy
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot -- --Mode Live --Action Deploy -Execute
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot -- --Mode Live --Action Observe
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot -- --Mode Live --Action Credit
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot -- --Mode Live --Action Withdraw
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot:emergency-stop
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot -- --Mode Live --Action Resume -Execute
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot:export
+npm run flowchain:real-value-pilot -- --Mode Live --Action Restart
+```
+
+Set live env vars only in a local shell or ignored env file. The minimum
+operator acknowledgement is:
+
+```powershell
+$env:FLOWCHAIN_PILOT_OPERATOR_ACK="I_UNDERSTAND_THIS_IS_CAPPED_BASE8453_OWNER_PILOT"
+```
+
+The ops wrapper also requires action-specific Base `8453` RPC, lockbox,
+owner/release/submitter/recipient, block range, and tiny cap env values before
+any live action proceeds.
