 **Open tasks:**
 - ! Verify adoption and hand off remaining owner work  `9d43f76c`
   *(wait: Requires adopted published rollout, provider and independent review proofs and observed fleet reach; no DoD-Ok from documentation or local fixture coverage.)*
-- ! Integrate and verify provider-specific knowledge loading  `012355d7`
-  *(wait: Requires actual governed-session readiness/isolation evidence and current-release provider startup, compaction/resume and adapter proofs; retained 0.2.4 reports do not certify 0.2.6.)*
+- ! Reconcile doctrine and the reference evaluator boundary  `f6b17f12`
+  *(wait: Founder accepted memo emergent-profile-adoption-0-2-6 at 2026-10-04T00:16:08Z as non-normative orientation of knowledge 0.2.6. The local G1-G12 matrix is docs/decisions/compatibility-matrix-2026-10-04.md and is unratified. Cross-owner doctrine ratification remains pending. Hub decision d20a9750 stays unresolved because the packet resolves never.)*
 - ! Pilot agent orientation across doctrine operations and engines  `6081755b`
   *(wait: Requires accepted current-release understanding evidence before wider owner-scoped pilots and continuity/harness evidence; retained 0.2.4 pilots and historical owner feedback do not certify 0.2.6 rollout.)*
 - ! Test situational understanding and unsafe routing failures  `9cc74076`
-  *(wait: The 0.2.6 28-case implementing review is recorded and is not an independent Whitehat disposition of RISK-F-0015; T07 has not accepted it, and the 0.2.3 acceptance is not renewed.)*
+  *(wait: Whitehat-owned offline review is accepted for the exact 0.2.6 digest at f65d0e64. Full T07 acceptance remains withheld pending source reconciliation, complete current-release provider evidence including the missing exact Codex server model, route grading, and continuity/governed-harness evidence. RISK-F-0015 stays open.)*
 - ! Roll out shared knowledge and establish update ownership  `a92a8a62`
-  *(wait: Requires human doctrine/adoption disposition and accepted current-release pilots before owner publication/distribution and actual fleet notice acknowledgments; unsigned draft remains unsubmitted.)*
-- ! Reconcile doctrine and the reference evaluator boundary  `f6b17f12`
-  *(wait: Cross-owner doctrine ratification and human exact-packet adoption remain pending; local boundary implementation and technical reviews are not normative adoption.)*
+  *(wait: The founder accepted the 0.2.6 orientation memo. Publication still waits on cross-owner doctrine ratification and accepted current-release pilots before owner distribution and fleet notice acknowledgments.)*
+- ! Integrate and verify provider-specific knowledge loading  `012355d7`
+  *(wait: Requires actual governed-session readiness/isolation evidence and current-release provider startup, compaction/resume and adapter proofs; retained 0.2.4 reports do not certify 0.2.6.)*
