CTO Architecture Brief Closeout Issues

Local planning SOT only. Not a Core Protocol. Not active Core authority.

Issue Sequence

CTO-WORK-046 - CTO Architecture Brief Closeout PRD

Type: AFK

Status: validated.

Blocked by: CTO-WORK-045

What to build: Define the closeout rules for validating the original architecture brief without changing runtime authority.

Acceptance criteria:

• PRD states CTO-WORK-001 can close only as child-local planning validation.
• PRD requires Stage 1 through Stage 6 evidence.
• PRD requires Hermes Control Surface evidence.
• PRD forbids Core promotion and Case default activation.

Validator: python3 tools/validate_cto_child.py

CTO-WORK-047 - CTO Architecture Brief Closeout Evidence

Type: AFK

Status: validated.

Blocked by: CTO-WORK-046

What to build: Update the original brief and WORKBOARD so the architecture thesis is closed as validated by later proof artifacts.

Acceptance criteria:

• CTO-WORK-001 status is validated.
• Original brief status is validated.
• Original brief references Stage 1 through Stage 6 proof gates.
• Original brief references CTO-WORK-043.
• Original brief references CTO-WORK-045.
• Original brief states Case remains candidate only.
• Original brief states runtime default activation remains false.
• Local CTO validator passes.

Validator: python3 tools/validate_cto_child.py

Done evidence: this issue artifact, original brief closeout section, WORKBOARD status, local validator JSON, and commit.
