- scripts/record-audit.py + tests/record-audit/ (24/24; gauntlet 69 GREEN):
  doc census, status-claim extractor, reference integrity. Exit 0 == zero
  contradiction groups (the Phase-6 re-run criterion).
- docs/audit/record-inventory.md: 179 files, 858 claim rows, 12 contradiction
  groups (plan counts, version pins, stage statuses), reference-rot counts.
- docs/audit/outer-plan-20260718.txt: captured outer plan -- 7 add / 2 change
  / 7 destroy; voffice1 seed volume forces replacement. THE citable
  plan-count source from here forward.
- docs/audit/env-snapshot-20260718.md: measured host/guest/toolchain state
  (vcloud, -136 bookend done, autostart enable, tofu 1.12.4, MAAS 3.7.2,
  LXD 5.21.5).
- docs/audit/grounding-audit-20260718.md: findings register GA-F01..GA-F14
  incl. the operator provenance rulings on the two memory files and the
  07-16 06:41 churn-mechanism correlation.

No fixes applied; no existing file touched. Findings only, per the charter
freeze. Phase 2 (CURRENT-STATE.md rebuild) starts from this evidence base.
