What

Consolidation program, step 2 of 5 — kills the status-drift class CI kept catching, by deleting the duplication that made drift possible.

  • Status_Model.md deleted (97 lines, zero inbound links): its two-axis model, six-term vocabulary, and edge rules absorbed into a new Status methodology section in Claims_Evidence_Register.md — now the canonical spine. One authority per axis per ID: Patch Log owns patch status, Threat Register owns threat status, CER owns claim status, the founding record owns Axis 2. Everything else links, never restates.
  • Hardening_Queue.md loses its duplicated status key and both Status columns — it is now a pure prioritized worklist referencing the owning rows. ID-less items are capped at "no stronger than Designed" until a register row owns them.
  • Threat_Register.md keeps its per-threat authority but stops restating patch statuses: the top status key and footer become pointers; P-015/P-019/P-023 "Status: Active — unproven (per Patch Log)" restatements become real pointers; the P-016 line that conflated PROPOSED (Axis 1) with pre-ratification (Axis 2) is fixed.
  • Net ~−95 lines; status-vocabulary definition sites reduced 5 → 1; the six-term vocabulary preserved verbatim; both status scripts untouched and green.
  • Deliberately kept: Evidence_Ladder.md (defines evidence levels — a different axis — and its level numbers are cited by app code and seven docs). Named follow-ups recorded under P-073: Patch Log same-file mini-tables; one convention for Threat Register per-entry Status lines.

Ceremony

  • Four independent single-role panelists in parallel (adversarial systems designer, Christ-centered, corpus-fit, minimalist): all APPROVE WITH FIXES, every fix applied — including the adversarial catch that the absorption had silently dropped the "no FAP-ratified before founding" rule (restored), the Hardening Queue's own residual restatements (rows 4/9, now pointers), and the Threat Register's top-of-file status key that made "defined once" false on arrival (now a pointer).
  • No docs/constitution/ changes — no session entry required; landing recorded under P-073's running consolidation record.
  • Validators: validate_corpus.py 0 errors; status-consistency OK (114 docs); gen_status_tables.py OK (31 threats).

…per axis

Consolidation program step 2 (under the P-073 framework-first gate):

- Status_Model.md DELETED; vocabulary, two-axis model, and edge rules
  (no FAP-ratified before founding; higher-tier citation rule; Tier-1
  no-Axis-1; sub-item own-line rule) absorbed into a new Status
  methodology section in Claims_Evidence_Register.md — the canonical
  status spine.
- Hardening_Queue.md: status key and Status columns deleted; now a pure
  worklist that references owning registers; ID-less items capped at
  'no stronger than Designed'.
- Threat_Register.md: top status key and footer reduced to pointers;
  restated patch statuses (P-015/P-019/P-023, T-024/T-028 rows, P-016
  axis confusion) converted to per-Patch-Log pointers.
- Net ~-95 lines; status-vocabulary definition sites: 5 -> 1.
- Evidence_Ladder deliberately retained (different axis; level numbers
  cited by app code + 7 docs). Follow-ups named in P-073 landing record.

Panel: four independent single-role reviewers in parallel (adversarial,
Christ-centered, corpus-fit, minimalist); all APPROVE WITH FIXES; all
fixes applied. Validators green (114 docs).

| **Resolved** | The threat has been addressed with evidence-backed controls AND residual risk is documented. |

Do not say "Resolved" or "Closed" for live system risks unless the control is evidence-backed and residual risk is documented. Items that require recurring tests remain **Active — unproven** until sufficient evidence exists.
> Status vocabulary, axis definitions, and per-claim status live in the [Claims and Evidence Register](./Claims_Evidence_Register.md) (claims), the [Threat Register](./Threat_Register.md) (threats), and the [Patch Log](./Patch_Log.md) (patches). This queue never restates a status; it only references the row that owns it. A queue item that cites no T-NNN/P-NNN ID has no status owner yet; treat it as no stronger than `Designed` until an owning register row exists.

P2 Badge Keep the queue policy consistent with remaining status text

This new policy says the Hardening Queue never restates status values, but the same file still has status-consequence rows that name concrete statuses such as Active — unproven, Designed, and T-031 **Active — unproven** in the macro falsification hooks. In contexts where those owner rows change, this file can still drift while claiming it cannot; either soften this sentence to allow consequence/status language or convert the remaining status mentions to owner-row pointers.
