# Flow 08 - Content and email gates

**Verdict: PASS**

Observed: `2026-07-17T11:39:49+00:00`  
Owner: `orchestrator`  
Test: `python3 /Users/macstudio4/vault-studio2/operations/clean-hermes-home-20260716/parity-evidence/flow_08_content_email_gates/test_and_build.py`

## Proven

- 15/15 native fail-closed tests pass. Content publish, outbound email, and outreach mutation deny missing, expired, wrong-scope, wrong-hash, replayed, or QA-less authority.
- The active outreach freeze overrides even a structurally valid fixture authority.
- The policy contains credential references only and no secret values.
- Synthetic positive-path tests prove mechanism only and are not mislabeled as provider receipts.
- The separately owner-authorized Flow 05 internal briefing canary supplies the positive receipt: Gmail inbox readback message `19f6f71cdc6affb4`, attempts `1`, duplicate count `0`, DKIM/SPF/DMARC pass.
- That authority is restricted to internal owner briefing email. It grants no commercial outreach, public content, campaign, or provider-mutation authority.
- No new send, publication, outreach mutation, Board mutation, provider call, or ALZO action occurred while closing Flow 08.
- Native Inspector task `t_3df4b2ac`, run `29`, worker PID `71101` verified the complete negative and positive evidence chain and signed `INSPECTOR-FULL-PARITY-VERDICT.json` with verdict `PASS`, mismatch count `0`, and no blockers.

## Acceptance

- `separately_approved_positive_canary`: satisfied by the durable, scoped Flow 05 owner-briefing authority and its verified Gmail receipt.
- All acceptance items are satisfied. `missing_acceptance=[]`.

This flow is `PASS`. It does not open or modify any business gate.

## Rollback

No clean authority was installed. Remove only the clean candidate policy/evidence; legacy gates, the independently authorized Flow 05 receipt, and `OUTREACH_GLOBAL_FREEZE_ACTIVE` remain canonical.
