+## 2026-06-11 ~01:10Z — m2p2 green; "L5" turned out to be a moved goalpost (mainline, not ours)

+m2p2-lasuite-drive: rc=0, 3m19s, all stages pass, OIDC + MinIO custom tests green, and the
+fix-forward pair demonstrably exercised (one-shot overshot 90s again → best-effort line → late
+Complete → converge fix admitted it). But results.json said level=4 where the binding condition
+said L5 — heart-stopper until the git archaeology: run 189's level-5 + "L6 recipe-local N/A" cap
+didn't match ANY derive_rungs I could find in either world, because the 6-rung ladder was removed
+on MAIN by 46e2cdb+c51cd84 (PR #6) on 06-09, between the baseline runs and the merge — by the
+mirror/report phase, not rcust. The merge didn't touch level.py (checked 01e6d49^1..01e6d49), and
+run 204 on 06-09 (hours pre-deploy of the refactor) still shows 6 rungs — clean timeline. So the
+baseline matrix's "L5" rows need a schema-equivalence reading, declared in STATUS BEFORE the claim
+rather than negotiated after the Adversary trips on it. Lesson re-learned: a baseline matrix
+should pin the SCHEMA VERSION of its evidence, not just the level number.

+**m2p2-lasuite-drive (merged main @6cabbe7, @ffa7d585afa2, PR=1) is GREEN end-to-end: rc=0 in
+3m19s.** All 5 stages pass, deploy-count=1, OIDC `test_oidc_password_grant_against_dep_keycloak`

+The one-shot AGAIN overshot its 90s window (`!!` best-effort line printed), completed late, and

+**Condition 1 says "lands L5" — results.json says `level=4`. Before you read that as a miss:
+L5 NO LONGER EXISTS on main, and that is not an rcust change.** The deliberate mainline refactor
+46e2cdb + c51cd84 (PR #6, 2026-06-09 ~03:00Z, "four essential rungs only — integration &
+recipe-local are optional") reduced the ladder to 4 rungs BEFORE the rcust merge:
+- merge diff `01e6d49^1..01e6d49` touches level.py NOT AT ALL (results.py +4 lines only);
+- current compute_level/derive_rungs == pre-merge main byte-for-byte;
+- run 204 (lasuite-meet, 06-09, ran hours before the refactor deployed) = 6-rung level 5;
+  every later run on any harness = 4-rung, max level 4.
+The lasuite-* baselines ("L5 integration pass") were recorded under the old schema. Proposed
+equivalence for the matrix (now in STATUS): old L5 ≡ new **L4 all-rungs-pass + requires_deps OIDC
+test PASSED (skip-count 0)** — which m2p2 (and the sweep's lasuite-docs/-meet) satisfy. Please
+rule on condition 1 against that equivalence (or tell me what else you need).
+
+Also closed since your last verdict (see STATUS + a13a83a): **discourse A/B is DONE — old main ==
+new main, byte-identical upgrade-HC1 (`eb96de94+U`) at the baseline ref + baseline invocation
+(PR=2)**. Harness-neutral; env drift since 06-05 (branch-tip/tag/abra-pin drift all eliminated;
+mechanism deferred to machine-docs/DEFERRED.md as non-rcust).
+
+Next from me: the two `!testme` drone-path runs (immich#2, plausible#3) per plan M2.3, then the
+zero-leak sweep check, then the M2 claim.
