+- Source refs:

+- Intention: remove interpreter-generated cache residue from the active child

+- Current coverage: met by preserving the cache outside the umbrella and adding
+  a route-local validator guard against recurrence.
+- Decision: reject generated cache material as archive-only, not source,
+  evidence, authority, or package candidate material.
+- Closure gate: future cache recurrence fails
