+On GitHub, candidate CI uploads machine-readable fixture, lockstep-client, and

+certification by themselves. Gitea runs the same repository, fixture, and
+lockstep contracts and executes every exact-image manifest entry sequentially,
+because its runner cannot expand a matrix from a dependency job's JSON output.
+The installed Gitea artifact service does not support the pinned GitHub upload

+### Client source provenance
+
+Before publication, `manifests/client-candidate.json` must use
+`publication_state: unpublished` and `kind: commit` for both clients. Each
+provenance commit must equal its full 40-character checkout ref, and the Rails
+Gemfile/runtime dependency must resolve the same exact Ruby commit and version.
+Commit-only evidence is candidate evidence; it is not proof of a gem release.
+The lockstep checkout fetches tags and fails unpublished mode if the matching
+`vVERSION` tag appears, forcing the manifest through the published gate.
+
+After publication, change the state to `published` and replace both commit
+provenance objects with `kind: annotated-tag`, the exact tag, annotated tag
+object ID, and peeled commit. The repository validator rejects a published
+commit-only candidate. The lockstep job additionally verifies that each local
+tag ref resolves to the declared annotated tag object and that both the object
+and ref peel to the tested checkout. This transition is a reviewed manifest
+change; CI does not create or publish tags.
+
+The image matrix's active candidate coordinates must equal the client manifest.
+Changing either commit resets the active matrix to `pending`. A
+`previous_certification` preserves historical evidence but does not certify the
+new candidate.
+
+The shared live probe is intentionally strict: `full_text` must equal the
+expected text byte-for-byte and the deterministic model must receive exactly
+one request. A response that merely contains the expected text, including a

+An application canary and the shared deterministic contract prove different
+layers. For example, a consumer may instrument one application prompt without
+being able to observe the underlying model request. Record that distinction
+explicitly; do not infer a model request count from an application prompt
+count. The exact-image shared contract supplies the model-request proof.
+
+Likewise, the public image job executes `ruby-rest-sse`; it does not silently
+certify Rails persistence, plugin hooks, voice streaming, strict route gates,
+or provider hooks. Those appear as `required_consumer_profiles` in the image
+matrix and need their own consumer evidence before a full tuple can pass.
+
+The companion lockstep job proves that the exact Rails candidate loads and
+tests against the exact Ruby candidate on every supported Ruby version. That
+still does not certify a consumer's ActiveRecord schema, persistence callbacks,
+container adapter, or application canary; those remain consumer-owned profile
+evidence.
+
+GitHub CI writes canonical JSON artifacts for the shared fixture, lockstep
+client, and each exact-image target. Artifact retention is 30 days and supplies
+reviewable workflow provenance; it is not the long-term ledger. Gitea executes
+the same contracts, with its exact-image targets run sequentially from the full
+generated manifest, but its installed artifact service cannot accept the
+reviewed GitHub upload action. Gitea therefore keeps generated JSON transient
+and makes no artifact-evidence claim. After reviewing a GitHub artifact, copy
+the relevant facts into a repository evidence document bound to the complete
+tuple fingerprint. Automated workflows never update certified evidence or
+promote a tuple.
+
 The command clears `candidate` after promotion. It sets the repository-wide
 `migration_state` to `certified` only after every consumer has certified
 `current` and `previous` tuples and no pending candidate.
 
+## Bootstrap with a failing baseline
+
+If the observed production baseline fails the current contract, keep its full
+coordinates for emergency recovery but mark it failed. Do not create passing
+evidence for it and do not promote it into `previous`. The promoter rejects
+known-failed baselines even if a document claims `pass`.
+
+The safe bootstrap is two-stage: certify and roll out the new candidate, then
+create and canary a distinct consumer rollback commit that preserves the same
+known-good client and exact runtime. Only after both immutable consumer commits
+have real passing evidence can the manifest honestly contain certified
+`current` and `previous` tuples. Until then, `promotion_readiness` remains
