# Finalize mode contract v0.1

Residual of MAS-WP-0009. The founder decided on 2026-10-19 that mode
contract v0.1 stays a draft. Its master side is validated independently
(`impl/js/src/master.mjs` passes the slave-setup flows), but the email side
exists only in Python (`mas_modes.email_mode`).

## An independent email side, or a real integration

```task
id: MAS-WP-0014-T01
status: wait
priority: low
```

Do one of these. Either build an email side independent of
`mas_modes.email_mode`, in another language or by another team, that
passes `mas-modes-v0.1-spec/conformance/flows.json` (both roles) from the
bundle alone. Or run a real outside master or mode integration (a CMS,
ticketing, telephony) against the contract and record the findings. Fold
the findings into CONTRACT.md as proposals, as SCP-9 did for v0.2.

## Declare final

```task
id: MAS-WP-0014-T02
status: wait
priority: low
```

With the findings folded in, ask the founder to declare mode contract v0.1
final. Then remove "draft" from the bundle and v0.2 §7.1.
