+### Exact disposable metadata acceptance (2026-10-16, wave 5)
+
+The owner-installed `FixtureAdmission` now carries canonical JSON before/after
+snapshot bytes. Their SHA-256 values must equal the existing descriptor's
+`expected_before` and `expected_after`, and both snapshots must name exactly the
+two compiled metadata paths. Explicit JSON null means absence. Only the actual
+OpenBao empty-errors 404 is accepted as absence; denied/malformed reads fail.
+These inputs contain metadata, never KV values or private token handles.
+
+Policy comparison retains name, HCL, version and cas_required. Only the
+modification timestamp is excluded, after requiring an aware timestamp and the
+closed observed policy field set. Role comparison retains every returned field,
+including aliases, token defaults and unexpected additions, using canonical JSON
+bytes (therefore false cannot equal zero). The disposable Kubernetes fixture pins
+the complete OpenBao 2.5.5 response shape. Another plugin/version/default requires
+an independently reviewed owner snapshot; nothing infers new accepted defaults.
+
+Each baseline gates its corresponding write. Policy readback occurs before role
+baseline/write/readback. A role conflict can therefore leave the policy applied;
+that operation remains unknown. This sequence has no native CAS, aggregate
+baseline gate, concurrent-writer exclusion, or simultaneous final-state proof.
+After all six calls match the committed snapshots, the same-live adapter records
+readback and verified with a value-free evidence digest. The mediator reports
+native_apply verified; cleanup-confirmed requires all separate cleanup receipts.
+Readback success with unconfirmed cleanup cannot reach cleanup-confirmed.
+
+Reopening SQLite cannot dispatch, reconsume, restore token/accessor handles or
+retry cleanup. Native effects can survive process loss. Cleanup handles remain
+memory-only: no independently authorized recovery mechanism is implemented here.
+This closes disposable sequential apply acceptance only, not TSA03 or native
+production recovery/admission.
