@@ -220,3 +220,27 @@ candidate unchanged. Its installed-path startup/lifecycle proof is
 [the local installation receipt](evidence/SAND-WP-0015-protected-local-install-2026-09-08.json).
 SAND-WP-0015-T06 is complete. T04 still owns configured execution, native
 credential adoption, real-model acceptance and production placement.
+
+## Standalone owner candidate
+
+`build-rein-runtime.py --owner-runtime` verifies rein's runtime-contract lock,
+then installs non-editable rein/llm/Glas/sandboxer packages from rein's frozen
+uv.lock. The artifact records source pins, package versions and the uv.lock digest.
+Use the existing explicit `--claude-binary/--claude-sha256/--claude-version` pin;
+a rolling workstation alias is not a candidate input. Console shebangs remain
+fixed to the namespace mount; use the candidate interpreter with `-I -B -m` for
+host owner commands. No credential, provider call or installation is part of build.
+
+Sandboxer wheels now include profile and extension definitions with packaged-first
+lookup and source-checkout fallback. This closes a concrete local-versus-installed
+owner discrepancy for bwrap. It is not a claim that every remote backend's external
+hosts/templates/tools are packaged or admitted. The ephemeral Messages binding may
+select an exact runtime path/digest; usual overlap and default-deny checks apply.
+
+Required `make check`: lint clean, 201 tests passed. Rein's
+`scripts/prove-metered-runtime.py` consumes the candidate to test installed imports,
+packaged definitions, explicit one-cycle bootstrap, actual pinned CLI/metered stream,
+insufficient-capacity refusal and teardown against fixtures. The resulting receipt
+belongs to `prj-helixforge-factory/evidence/2026-09-09-owner-bootstrap.json`.
+Production installation and credential-holder/empty-egress profile/placement admission
+remain SAND-WP-0015-T04 and HFACT-WP-0001-T03/T04; no prior profile is promoted.
