Epoch 11 — Seat to Loop: The Gate Becomes the Verdict
DRAFT — captain's declaration in the captain's authorial voice. DO NOT MERGE until you review the exact text.
Thesis: seat -> loop — the gate becomes the verdict. E0011 relocates the unit of trust from the boarded seat (E0010) to the gated two-loop production frame. A valid outcome is one that descended from ratified policy through the loop — exploration -> policy -> PRD -> build -> validate — fresh-validated at every gate, for every role, not just the seated model.

docs/appendices/epoch-11.md— the E0011 appendix. Gauntlet-challenged (oddkit_challenge, canon-tier-2); findings folded (prior-art acknowledgment for "the loop"; single-incident honesty; named alternative). No hard tensions;block_until_addressed: false.docs/appendices/epochs.md— E0011 registry entry, plus backfilled E0009 and E0010 (their appendices existed but the registry skipped them; flagged as a judgment call — revert if you want E0011-only).canon/CHANGELOG.md— canon 0.42.0.docs/oddkit/release-notes/2026-07-17-epoch-11-seat-to-loop.md— release note.Documented relabel scope (follow-up, NOT executed here)

Do not merge; this is your pen.
