+### Landing evidence (Run 5, appended after push, 2026-10-11 ≈11:25Z)
+
+Deliverable commit **`adfff7a`** (Merlin, `merlin@agents.invalid`), 3 files, pushed to
+`origin/main` (`git log --oneline -1 origin/main` → `adfff7a`). Read back over the anonymous raw
+path (`…/raw/branch/main/<path>`), no credential — each **HTTP 200** and `cmp` **byte-identical**
+to disk:
+
+| file | status / bytes | sha256 |
+|---|---|---|
+| `recoveries/helm-cli-entry-point.md` | 200 / 5,887 | `dca2fe53fa41a6d0d9eafe3133af13bb2185848f55f76fae8c23aeba921cc9ad` |
+| `checkins/2026-10-11-merlin.md` | 200 / 50,373 (pre-append revision) | `a5c85462a39269db99c373407cb49bde593d3cb025c47c56be5ee276b3266e6b` |
+| `WORK-QUEUE.md` | 200 / 453,323 | `5bd574c1883ac97ced2fe4a323f03144b2dab881fd63d4098a0479761800ece3` |
+
+Re-verified after the push, from this host: live `/helm/` page still 200 / **9,865 B** /
+`427b7b54c69b18d2…` with mtime `2026-10-11 08:57:14.017837233Z` — nothing was deployed.
+`python3 /root/.helm/bin/helm-selftest.py` → **119 passed, 0 failed**, `VERDICT: ALL GATES PASS`.
+The fixed Helm files are host-local (`/root/.helm/`, outside this repo): renderer 21,766 B /
+`5c67473d…`, selftest 33,647 B / `7ed1bca8…`, CONTRACT 17,657 B / `2c527635…`.
