Fail-closed release gate — blocked until approved

A release cannot proceed without explicit approval; the system blocks by default and records evidence.

What was verified

Fail-closed gate behavior and audit evidence. We show the timeline + minimal artifacts required to prove the block/approval transition.

Publishing rule

Redacted artifacts only. We publish the minimum needed to prove the claim.
