Follow-up to HFACT-WP-0001-T02's observed HTTP 409 when a reviewed retirement
acknowledgement changes at the same source commit. File/Forge authority, primary
identity, exact commit and explicit retirement acknowledgement stay unchanged.

## Bind retries to the complete request

```task
id: RMGR-WP-0017-T01
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "df916063-1f8c-5d5b-9926-9854aebb6af8"
```

Digest the method, repository route and full POST body into the idempotency key.
Identical retries retain their key; an explicit review acknowledgement uses a
different key. Retain acknowledgement and expected instance in queued metadata.

## Verify the returned primary and commit

```task
id: RMGR-WP-0017-T02
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "5a4eb2a6-7414-5c09-b3c1-8992ff80b390"
```

Reject incomplete or mismatched primary/repository/commit receipts instead of
reporting success or discarding pending state. Keep the two-request fast path.

## Prove convergence and synchronize

```task
id: RMGR-WP-0017-T03
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "736c4f0b-7311-58f4-9e9f-390ac930cb29"
```

Run real-Git/mocked-transport regressions, the full suite and targeted lint.
Commit/sync; verify exact primary receipts on the selected factory chain using
the corrected client. STATE-WP-0090 owns the server's description/note fix and
live projection convergence. Preserve all existing identities and source files.

Validation: all seven new regressions failed on the original client. The fixed
client passes all 188 repository tests and targeted Ruff checks. Identical
requests replay; changed reviewed payloads do not collide. Exact receipt checks
retain the two-request path. Live synchronization evidence remains T03.

Completed: exact primary receipts verified for secrets-engine, railiance-platform
and prj-helixforge-factory, each through the unchanged two-request fast path.
The promoted STATE-WP-0090 parser matches all 24 selected tasks without repair;
independent rederivation returns noop/zero changes for all three. Evidence:
state-hub/docs/evidence/2026-09-10-projection-convergence.json. No residual in this
bounded client defect; HFACT T02 retains backlog readiness and STATE-WP-0091 owns
the separate capacity issue exposed by server promotion.
