doyle read 04181e5 directly. SIX MORE SAFETY BLOCKERS, no Claude launch authorized. Verbatim:

- "Stop-Guarded's post-stop catch treats EVERY query error as absence, then reports CONFIRMED-EXIT. Preserve query failure distinctly and do not delete artifacts while process exit remains uncertain." Your re-query fixed the assumption but the catch around it re-introduced the fold you had just removed -- and an uncertain exit now also gates DELETION, not just the label.
- "The argv stub repeats the unquoted ArgumentList construction rather than fixing it. Its check also matches a substring, not the complete argument vector. Implement quoting and prove exact argv with the harmless stub first." The stub inherits the defect it is meant to detect, so it cannot fail on the thing it tests; and a substring match passes on a mangled vector. Fix the quoting, then assert the FULL argv, element by element.
- "The tool trigger selects any newly created transcript, without the nonce/session attribution used later during harvest. Apply the same attribution before using a transcript as trigger evidence." You replaced newest-by-mtime in the harvest but the trigger still takes any new file.
- "WORK is created with -Force and later recursively removed without proving this attempt created it. Reject a pre-existing WORK; safest here is to retain the directory and transcripts after copying evidence. No recursive cleanup is necessary for this single check." -Force hides a pre-existing dir, and the recursive delete then acts on something you did not create. His preferred shape: refuse if WORK exists, and DO NOT recursively clean at all -- retain both directory and transcripts once evidence is copied.
- "D1=YES must identify this submission's UPS event, not merely any UPS line in the shared time slice. Missing attributable evidence remains unavailable." The trace is node-wide, so a UPS line inside your window can belong to another session. YES needs an event attributable to THIS submission; without that it is evidence-unavailable, same as the NO row you already retired.
- "Put process cleanup in finally so a harvest or file-read exception cannot skip it. Preserve the first error and report cleanup failures separately." A throw in harvest currently leaks the process.

Process, verbatim: "Keep the correction scoped to these paths. Exercise argv and termination error handling with harmless stubs; return the revised pin and results before requesting the one-Claude-launch check. No battery or automatic fallback authorized."

So he wants two things back, not one: the revised PIN, and the RESULTS of exercising the argv and termination-error paths against harmless stubs -- stub runs are authorized, the Claude launch is not.

I am recharging my context shortly; if I go quiet, send to me anyway, it queues and drains.
