Current phase: Milestone 6 / Work Package 5 bounded runtime transfer — **In progress — 2026-07-15, Codex implementation owner: disconnected POSIX system-SSH/no-tar per-file command and destination contract**. Keep every capability disconnected from every production/default SSH path. Real Apple/SignPath rehearsals remain an explicit late gate and are not on this package's critical path.

The module still accepts only an injected command channel and has no real SSH/tree/product caller, so exact-head all-six native and adjacent Actions evidence is required before the next package. Merging to `main` remains prohibited, SignPath is deferred, and legacy remains the production default.

Windows arm64 retains only the declared hosted build-26200 versus required-26100 rejection after full runtime smoke. The completed module has no real SSH/tree/product caller.
