+> ## 🛑 RECALIBRATION BOUNDARY **NOT WRITTEN** (no promotion exists) + BUILD TRIAGE 2026-07-31 → `specs/incomplete-surface-triage.md`
+> The order asked to tag grades `pre/post edge-shading` at "the true promotion timestamp." **There is
+> no such timestamp**, and writing the marker would insert a **fabricated model transition into an
+> append-only public record** — the exact corruption the order exists to prevent. **THREE INDEPENDENT
+> PRODUCTION PROOFS:** (A) **`model_snapshots.code_sha`** — every sha that ran the pipeline in the last
+> 5 days is a documented commit from this session (**`f3bf300` currently live**, then `f310608`,
+> `9b5235c`, `b8ee216`, `afb56b1`, `3592aba`, `914a057`), **all stamped `engine1@2026-07-20`** — no
+> promotion commit exists. (B) **daily A-family share 07-24→07-30 = 0.0 · 0.0 · 0.0 · 0.0 · 1.0 · 1.6 ·
+> 0.0** — **flat at zero, no step change on any date**; a 92.9% re-letter would have driven the board
+> to ~79-93% A overnight. (C) `efficiencyShading` has **zero production importers**; HEAD `d54eca0`,
+> clean tree.
+> **THE DELTA, WITH ROW COUNTS: neither 92.9% nor 43.6% is attested in any measurement here, and no
+> re-lettering occurred at any scale** — so "partial slate vs full board" cannot explain a gap that
+> does not exist. The only measured numbers, on **all 1,250** rows (the FULL board): **97.4% would
+> change · 79.8% UP · 79.0% A-family · and 0 of 1,250 rows actually shaded.** The hypothetical
+> re-letter would have come **entirely from an unapproved grading-basis switch**, which is why the flip
+> was refused. **Measurement integrity needs nothing new today** — `model_version` already separates the
+> S64 eras and takeable tags are complete (1,245/1,250). The boundary becomes a hard prerequisite **the
+> day a promotion actually ships**; `config/modelEras.js` is its home.
+> **BUILD TRIAGE — 14 surfaces classified FROM CODE, five dependency-ordered waves, nothing cut:**
+> **W1 pure wiring** (`/intelligence` 160ln real 0-placeholder, `/slip` 526ln, `/parlay` direct link,
+> `/marketplace` after a copy-honesty pass — it advertises unbuilt capability). **W2 design-only gaps**
+> — artboards for **Live tracking · Slip reader · Newsletter** (all built+live+honest; DESIGN is the
+> only missing column). **W3 self-contained** — `/compare` real two-player fetch, `ShareCard` host,
+> `/notifications` (`RouteStub`, needs a store + delivery). **W4 MODEL-GATED** — price-triplet MODEL leg
+> + calibration/edge board **both need `p_win` vs `fair_prob`; building either on `edge_pct` would
+> re-ship the retired 620% lie.** **W5 sport/quota-gated** — **`/soccer` blocked on odds-api quota
+> (0/500), not code**, plus a settled feed; `/system` (decide the `/intelligence` overlap first);
+> Offseason.
+> **MATRIX CORRECTIONS:** Live tracking / Newsletter / Slip reader are built-live-honest and incomplete
+> ONLY on DESIGN · `/parlay` is drawer-reachable, not unreachable · `/compare` is already honest.
+> **No live surface is showing fabricated data today.**
