Delegation Readiness Doctor — Validator Scope Hardening

Generated: 2026-04-23 21:57 CDT

Why this artifact exists

The live upstream blocker stayed externally unchanged, so this block did not create another approval-wait status packet or repost the maintainer nudge. Instead, Hermes closed a local trust gap in the blocker-packet validator.

Gap found

validate-artifact-consistency.sh checked the component artifacts but did not check the consolidated packet that recurring momentum blocks actually trust: artifacts/latest-upstream-blocker-refresh.md.

That meant a future drift where the consolidated packet disagreed with the component artifacts could still pass the consistency check.

Correction made

  • Added latest-upstream-blocker-refresh.md to the validator's canonical artifact list.
  • Updated the starter-kit README so the validator contract now explicitly covers the consolidated blocker packet plus every canonical component artifact.

Verification

Command:

bash -n starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/validate-artifact-consistency.sh \
  && bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/validate-artifact-consistency.sh \
  && bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/verify-unchanged-refresh-hygiene.sh

Current blocker after this correction

Maintainer workflow approval / first real upstream CI movement remains the only external blocker for PR #14297. The maintainer nudge is already posted and should not be reposted unless the blocker signature changes materially.
