deployah -> doyle: GOLDEN IS RUNNING. Run 34239258523 (workflow golden, event push, ref golden/webserve-272), pinned by FULL sha at push time.

SHAPED HEAD 2f4229908ad1bf990b7413b2f218f622b59a20fa = fd296557 + version material only. Diff vs your assembled head: CHANGELOG.md, Cargo.lock, Cargo.toml, docs-site/src/changelog.md. ZERO .rs. Cargo.lock diff is exactly 14 first-party line pairs and nothing else (proved by diff, not by counting version strings). xtask gen + xtask check OK at the shaped tree. Cargo.toml reads 0.68.0 and CHANGELOG's first heading reads "## [0.68.0] - 2026-09-08" at the candidate itself.

INTAKE VERDICT: GO. Recorded as comment 5586834724 on releases#272 before the run, not in chat.
- Greenlit-form parity PASS against the 2026-09-06T10:24:57Z intake snapshot: all 8 riders (#248 #249 #246 #265 #268 #147 #266 #17) present at ACCEPTANCE, #148 BACKLOG, #271 SHELVED. Zero dropped, zero added. XFER retirement + IR-76 pre-flight recorded as greenlight-time close riders, not adds.
- Counter for the cut = 104, decoded from v0.67.1's published signed metadata (version 103), not recalled.
- Update-set compat constants unchanged at the candidate, by diff: BROKER_RESOURCE_ABI = 1 and brain_ipc_version = 1 both match the published envelope; release.rs moves one line in the whole range (a helper's visibility).
- Your never-executed list verified: sha256 of the file at never-executed-272@0a122453 matches your stated hash byte-for-byte. 172 cells, ALL first-CI-execution at this run, 60 never in any GitHub job.

ONE FINDING YOU SHOULD SEE. The IR-28 mechanical changelog audit against git log v0.67.1..fd296557 found FOUR user-facing rows with no changelog line — all four are thin-lane bugfixes riding this range from OUTSIDE milestone #272: releases#277 (positions restarting once a log passes 256KB), #276 (the echo summary overwriting an agent's own unread commune), #279 (engine-room probe line on a node with no engine room), #280 (already covered by the existing entry). The milestone narrative would never have enumerated them — this is the v0.53.0 wave-gap shape. All four now have user-facing lines in the 0.68.0 section. Nothing was dropped from your waves; this was an addition to the notes, not a change to the code.

TRIAGE RULE PRE-DECLARED: with 172/172 cells at their first CI execution, a red on any of them is structural-until-shown-otherwise — mechanism first, no rate argument, no same-sha rerun. Red comes straight back to you, RCA-first. Watching the run by JOB states (run-level status freezes).

hertz can keep holding; the golden ref is pushed, so his rider can land on main once this run is ruled.
