# V120 / RED TEAM 004 Independent Acceptance — Wojciech Z. Kaleta, PhD

**Date:** 2026-10-06  
**Disposition:** **PASS — BOUNDED. Accepted as run.**

Wojciech Z. Kaleta inspected the submitted V120 package against the frozen RED TEAM 004 proposition and accepted the bounded result.

> **Valid authority artifact ≠ currently intact authority chain.**

The examiner confirmed that the pair preserves the frozen dimensions: R₀ as the external trust anchor, the B→C delegation, C's authority instrument, the content/signature/provenance/freshness/internal validity of C's instrument, and the domain facts and governing rule. Only the higher-order R₀→B empowerment relation changes.

Accepted result:

- **Case A:** the current R₀→B→C path remains intact and the Pack returns `CONSTITUTED`.
- **Case B:** the intermediate B→C delegation and C authority instrument remain valid, but the current upstream empowerment path is broken. The Pack returns `UNRESOLVED_AUTHORITY_CHAIN`, with `proposition_value = null` and `governing_source_id = null`.

Harmonic caveat preserved by the examiner:

- Harmonic's `authority_continuity` primitive still reports `AUTHORITY_CONTINUOUS` in Case B.
- Therefore V120 does **not** establish that Harmonic independently reconstructs the R₀→B→C authority-chain break.
- The PASS is earned at the Specialty Pack authority-chain admission boundary; Harmonic is downstream witness evidence only.

The examiner verified the submitted SHA-256 inventory as internally consistent.

Examiner conclusion:

> **PASS — BOUNDED. Accepted as run. No repair needed. No broader claim earned. No retrospective reinterpretation.**
