Verification
I checked all ten axes against the handed runtime, memory, epistemic and workflow records and their annotations. Reconciliation supplies no supersessions; the input container, its distinct memory parts, the package and its textual parts remain valid. No source reread was needed. The profile adds no implementation or execution evidence: every positive finding retains claimed strength. Coverage is assessed separately from that strength.
Storage and form. The graph substrate findings are supported for the documented retained input and output objects, including opaque tool payloads stored in graph properties. Export as SKILL.md does not establish a separate retained filesystem store. The substrate assessment does not establish persistence of every possible governance flag or transient intermediate. The form axis correctly separates readable content from fixed-role structure and leaves arbitrary tool payloads and unspecified ontology properties unresolved. Model inference alone supplies no through-use parametric memory finding. See MEM-OBJ-memory-text, MEM-OBJ-tool-call, MEM-OBJ-memory-graph, RT-OBJ-procedure-graph and RT-OBJ-skill-package.
Lineage. The grouped output unit names separate contributions rather than assigning every contribution to every output part: deterministic topology and bindings, model-authored textual parts, and their trace-fed derivation. Its known assessment is confined to that downstream derivation path. Unresolved original authorship, extraction history, prior summarization and status-update provenance remain in partial or not-determinable units. Neither graph storage nor deterministic processing is used to establish entailment. See RT-RTE-skill-distillation, RT-OBJ-procedure-graph, EPI-OBJ-claims, EPI-OBJ-step-annotations and MEM-OBJ-memory-graph.
Behavioral authority. The recorded experience supplies evidence and a learning input at the update consumer; recorded outcomes and weighted recurring patterns influence priority. These are distinct from the published procedure's instruction and reference roles at later hosts. Retained identities and surviving grounding constrain reference or patch admissibility; no surviving grounding supplies a veto on repair. Expected status supplies a governance comparison criterion without establishing automatic downstream blocking. These findings are supported at claimed strength. The axis remains partial, appropriately withholding a complete account of version, flag and release-state consumers. A local inventory omission is retained below. See RT-RTE-skill-distillation, EPI-RTE-source-check, RT-RTE-step-repair, RT-RTE-drift-check and RT-BAP-skill-consumption.
Write agency and curation. Software admission of a pending product, explicit human publication approval and software admission of a salvageable patch are distinct mechanisms. Unknown initial acquisition and patch publication control are not suppressed by those positives. Consolidation is supported by the described clustering of retained recurring actions, not just a stage name. Repair revises grounding and creates a superseding version; its evolve and invalidate findings concern that local revision and current-version relation, not withdrawal of installed packages. The unresolved curation unit correctly withholds semantic synthesis and reliance changes from contradiction flagging alone. See RT-RTE-skill-distillation, RT-RTE-review-delivery, RT-RTE-step-repair and EPI-OBJ-claims.
Read-back direction and signal. Scope-requested evidence retrieval and client fetching establish pull. Bounded snippet delivery fulfills that request and is not independently counted as push. Unresolved host loading and maintenance initiation prevent a complete pull-only finding; signal therefore remains not-determinable rather than inapplicable. Identifiers on requested evidence do not establish targeted unsolicited selection. See RT-RTE-skill-distillation, RT-RTE-review-delivery, RT-RTE-drift-check and RT-RTE-step-repair.
Trace learning and source. Automatic construction from retained activity into durable skill products with documented later consumers supports the claimed yes independently of human publication review, observed improvement or parameter updates. Conversational turns, recorded calls and linked decision/action/result experience support session-logs, tool-traces and trajectories respectively; topology derived from recorded orderings supports the multi-step linkage rather than merely isolated call records. Redis transport supplies no event-stream source finding. Mixed ontology provenance and alternative update routes remain unresolved. No local or system-wide negative is asserted without an absence record. See MEM-OBJ-memory-text, MEM-OBJ-tool-call, MEM-OBJ-memory-graph, RT-RTE-skill-distillation and RT-BAP-skill-consumption.
The emitted comparison findings remain supported. No unsupported stronger basis, system-wide negative or complete-value conclusion requires correction before publication.

Limits
- The profile's partial behavioral_authority inventory does not separately classify ontology entities as evidence at the distillation consumer. MEM-OBJ-memory-graph explicitly describes that use, whereas the profile groups this object's authority under identity checking and repair. See the profile and RT-RTE-skill-distillation. Withhold a complete part-to-consumer authority inventory, particularly comparisons of ontology-content use versus identity validation. This omission does not invalidate the emitted knowledge finding, already supported by other retained inputs, or turn the partial axis into a complete one.
