Forced choice for FINAL bounded-cycle disposition: SHIP / FIX-THEN-SHIP / HOLD-FOR-STEVE / KILL. Scope SHIP means save the already-verified monitoring evidence, append ledger, commit local evidence, and return normally to the existing 600-second launchd. It never means ship any source repair or public/customer artifact. Source outcomes ALL UNRESOLVED. Before any tool action, independently READ /Users/macstudio3/Projects/ticket-system/config/dtd-cost-mode and verify ZERO_COST_REQUIRED. Never unset/override/rewrite it or DTD_ZERO_COST; do not read provider keys/use paid endpoints/Claude or perform source mutations. Codex CLI/local models only. No research or implementation requested.
Evidence: Supplied queue order TK10928 rank16 prepared-gated, TK11290 rank56 external-blocked, TK11250 rank57 external-blocked; canonical re-read before each assessment, source owners/statuses preserved. Existing historical backup rehearsal and exact gate memo complete; current root3079MB FAIL unchanged3000MB threshold, exact fresh current-maintenance/window/resulting archive/script approval missing. Authoritative READ ONLY/ROLLBACK phase3 latest Sep3 11:29:48Z,125h stale; generic log timestamp is not provider/null cause.

Initial domain empirical monitor28PASS0FAIL4criticalSKIP; actual sourcecanary FAIL. NoUI produced: realcanary/API200/auth401/SQL/launchctl substitutes. Cody five distinct lenses+debate:4SHIPIT/1REVISE monitoring-only, independent22PASS0FAIL4SKIP; parent verified artifact and canonical A2A handoff. Dissent: recurring unchanged monitoring has weak operational value, but user explicitly mandates continuing every10minutes; do not change scheduler or repeat known blockers. Genuine source limitations reproduced, no new report/code defect. Clarify skipped: no new decision-changing ambiguity; existing conservative gates retained. Parent must still run closing empirical checks and append/fsync/readback before completion; runner can only observe worker exit after return. DirectAPI/externalspend$0. Source maintenance/provider/canonicalwrites/Shopify remain gated, no carried10993approval used. KILL would contradict authorized ongoing loop; HOLD applies source repairs which already remain held.
Pick exactly one option. Begin your answer with VERDICT: <option> on its own line, then give one paragraph of reasoning. Preserve distinction between monitoring acceptance and unresolved source recovery.
