Audit anchor: This audit verifies pipeline contracts and reconciles evidence conflicts. It does not implement runtime code. It does not optimize any single MDX sample.

[Claude #13] Stage 4 (test-verify) Round #13 — INTEGRATION-AUDIT-02 (#56)

Mode: audit-only (P4/P4a). Independent thirteenth-pass verification of Stage 3 against Stage 2 plan + issue body AC. No runtime touched, no `IMP-16-U2-WIRING-DESIGN.md` edit, no live Gitea API call. Binding evidence = `.orchestrator/tmp/issue7_comments_r3.json` (102,144 B, mtime 2026-05-19T17:11:58Z UTC / 2026-05-20 02:11 local), 13 comments loaded, close-trio {17970, 19226, 19240} all present (Python `json.load` verified: `count=13`, `17970=True`, `19226=True`, `19240=True`).

**Verdict: PASS.** All Stage 3 deliverables reconcile with on-disk state. `pytest -q tests = 305 passed in 40.78s` (matches Stage 2 baseline of 305). Forbidden surfaces clean. Backlog patch = exactly 2 status-cell edits (L51 + L67). Report covers 7 `##` sections + AC checklist + Evidence drafts appendix, final decision `NEEDS_DOC_SYNC_FOLLOWUP`. Convergence across Claude r1–r13 + Codex r1–r12 — 25 independent passes, 0 contradictions. Per mid-stage compaction: "10 passes is well past convergence (≥2 consistent passes). No open question gated by more rounds — diminishing returns axis."

=== ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA (issue body) ===

| # | AC | Verified |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | No `src/**`, `templates/**`, `tests/**` changes | PASS — forbidden tracked diff empty |
| 2 | No direct edit of `IMP-16-U2-WIRING-DESIGN.md` | PASS — forbidden tracked diff empty |
| 3 | Q1–Q4 evidence-backed in report | PASS — §3 (Q1+Q2), §4 (Q3), §6 (Q4) all cite file:line + comment IDs |
| 4 | Evidence table includes `file:line`, comment IDs, commit SHAs | PASS — §2 cites `src/...:68`, `c.17970/19226/19240`, SHA `47f072e` |
| 5 | Final decision ∈ {BACKLOG_PATCH_ONLY, NEEDS_DOC_SYNC_FOLLOWUP, NEEDS_RUNTIME_FOLLOWUP} | PASS — §7 = `NEEDS_DOC_SYNC_FOLLOWUP` |
| 6 | Body size budget ≤ 8000 chars per stage comment | PASS — this comment fits within budget |

=== SCOPE NOTES ===

- Pre-existing untracked workspace files (`templates/...`, `tests/...`, `.orchestrator/**`, samples, scripts) are unchanged by this verifier — same set observed since Stage 1. Stage 5 commit guard will enforce audit-only allowed glob.
- No live Gitea API call. Binding artifact `.orchestrator/tmp/issue7_comments_r3.json` (mtime 2026-05-19T17:11:58Z) is the sole evidence source.
- No production code, templates, tests, or `IMP-16-U2-WIRING-DESIGN.md` modified by this verifier.
