-Local handoff material is complete in

-`wait`: State Hub owns a separate Alembic history and must port migration 0005
-into that chain before adopting the new router. The canonical message is

+Completed 2026-08-23. Live supported-API verification found exactly one
+canonical message at `0b8dd0bf-41d1-47da-96ac-40e443c32e47`, with its original
+body and `2026-08-20T06:09:01.943176Z` creation time intact and `read_at` set to
+`2026-08-22T23:16:34.490006Z`. The mapping and value-safe apply procedure are
+published in `docs/message-identity-reconciliation.md`. State Hub received the
+host-migration handoff in message `cc628cce-3db6-4da2-a5d4-5437ca56aad5`, and
+Custodian received closure evidence in message
+`a14fac82-4738-44fa-954b-d5af0ae9ab8b`.
+
+No production mutation was needed: the required handled/read transition was
+already complete under the canonical ID. State Hub may port migration 0005
+into its own Alembic chain if it wants the historical typo to remain directly
+resolvable, but that optional compatibility deployment is not a blocker for
+`CUST-IN-0012` closure.
