Ten owner decisions from a two-round adversarial roast of the whole collection (Claude Opus 5, GPT-5.6-Sol, Gemini 3.1 Pro; 72 standing findings, stopped before the loop ran dry).

What changes for you

  • Receipts move out of the scratchpad. proof-rN.md and break-rN.md now live in the project's durable records home — the gate refuses to dispatch without them, and the session that wrote them has usually already ended. They are never committed on the candidate branch, which would advance the head past the SHA under review.
  • duck-review will not dispatch until the export is authorized. The gate works by sending your repository's contents to model vendors outside your machine. A host that refuses on those grounds has asked the owner's question, so it routes to duck-decide rather than to a retry. If you have not authorized the export for a repository, the gate fails closed and says so.
  • Reviewer family comes from the harness roster, not a self-report. One binary can serve several families; a harness that prints no roster establishes no family, which is the unknown identity the gate already refuses to count.
  • duck-run proves before it freezes the candidate SHA. duck-proof fixes what it finds, so the old order left the authorization pointing at code nobody reviewed.
  • duck-campaign owns its continuation by booking the next session per packet, instead of handing off to a driver the collection never shipped.
  • duck-cut runs duck-scan as its only locator, and a CUT commit now carries the deleted item's text — deletion is the one verdict with no recovery path.
  • duck-proof and duck-dry lose the sections that duplicated duck-run and duck-campaign.
  • The validator gains two checks: the release version must agree across the three files carrying it, and a skill showing a reviewer dispatch must also state the by-path rule.

Known gaps, stated rather than discovered

Nothing in the distribution says which controls are mechanically enforced and which are discipline. Pin validation and receipt existence are discipline. That disclosure was written and then removed by owner decision; the constraint it satisfied is knowingly unmet.

This release did not pass its own gate. It landed under a written owner waiver of duck-land's APPROVE precondition, merged through the OrganizationAdmin bypass of the master ruleset's last-push-approval rule. Both were recorded before the fact. It is the second consecutive release of gate files on a waiver.
