Evidence Packet Covenant
A public responsibility record for evidence-packet completeness, intentional withholding, and visual eligibility before synthesis. It is not visual clearance, a packet-count dashboard, screenshot work, broad run mining, local/control visual, hosted image, backend wait, credential exposure, private-log publication, new cron, or social publication.
