Summary

• Reconcile living Comic Manifest guides with the published immutable Platform v1.0.0 GitHub release while clarifying that the npm package remains private.
• Explain that publication_status: candidate-unpublished in release/comic-manifest-api-v1.json is retained build-time candidate evidence, not live release or npm status.
• Label the 2026-10-09 verification record as a dated prepublication snapshot and preserve its historical state and gates.
• Clarify that the October 6 AI-review/merge instruction was not registered as a formal Constitutional exception. No Studio architecture acceptance is claimed.

Boundaries

• Documentation-only Platform changes. No Studio governance files, API inventory, immutable release assets, tag, or release were changed.
• No Issue/Epic closure or architecture approval is included. The exact owner review remains pending; this draft stays open for present-day owner and technical review.

Validation

• Exact-head CI for af3e109018d08e47f4a26c4d348ba03f13bc8a17 passed in run #93 on Node 22 and 24. Both jobs passed npm ci, npm test, Comic Manifest conformance/security, and Context Builder conformance/reference checks.
• Read back all nine changed files. The API inventory blob is identical to main (a1fca1450473f818a5dbbf4fbeea1856f5082d5e) and remains candidate-unpublished; all nine Markdown files passed a split-link syntax check.
• The independent reviewer reports 136 focused source tests passed with no functional defect found. The selected execution environment was unavailable, so local tests were not run; this PR changes documentation only.

Related to Studio #99; does not close it.
