What changed

• pixelgym/platform/s7_predecessors.py: the predecessor loader now accepts a completed sealed S7 qualification as well as a stopped one. New predecessor_root resolves the nested qualification/ directory that retained archives use; predecessor_count dispatches on whether the run holds failure.json (stopped) or results.json (completed); completed_count counts from stored bytes only: seal, plan under the approved gate policy, source snapshot, results schema with zero spend and zero provider requests, results-to-ledger agreement, plan digest binding, packages and stored verification present. No replay, package load, activation, or publication is added. stopped_count behavior is unchanged.
• tests/unit/platform/test_s7_serving.py: completed-archive fixture plus tests for mixed stopped and completed accumulation (nested and flat roots, allowances 227/261), six parametrized refusals (failure record, missing packages, edited plan, ledger drift, nonzero spend, neither record), and the missing-seal refusal.
• docs/s7-serving-demo-proposal.md: records the owner's 2026-10-26 approval of a successor qualification of the repaired source and the loader semantics.

Why

The completed v3 qualification (77 sends) is bound to revision e6d61aea, which later repairs made unloadable. The owner approved requalifying the repaired source with 77 further fake sends. Honest cumulative accounting requires declaring all three retained archives (0 + 73 + 77 = 150 prior sends), but the loader previously refused any archive that held completed results.

Reviewer notes

• A completed predecessor is counted, not re-verified: its packages are not loaded and its actions are not replayed. That limit is stated in the proposal doc.
• The report renderer still labels prior sends as "Earlier stopped qualifications". That string is now imprecise and was left unchanged in this PR because a private successor freeze was already bound to this revision; it can be corrected separately.
• The private successor qualification ran against this exact head (3b28658) with exit 0: 77 fake sends, cumulative 227 of 227, campaign ceiling 261, both packages built, verify digests matching. Private artifacts stay outside this repository. No activation, archive capture, LFS transfer, or milestone decision was performed.

Validation

Local on this head: ruff check and ruff format --check pass; python -m mypy pixelgym exit 0; python -m pytest -q -n 4 --dist worksteal tests/unit 3325 passed, 6 skipped in 232.84s.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Successor qualification runs can now build on either stopped or completed predecessor qualifications, with previously recorded sends included in cumulative qualification and campaign limits.
  • Completed predecessor results are counted from their stored evidence rather than replayed or loaded as packages.
• Improvements
  • Predecessor records without valid sealed qualification evidence are rejected, helping ensure prior sends are accounted for consistently.
  • Activation, serving rehearsal, publication, and milestone decisions remain separate approval steps.

Walkthrough

Predecessor loading now supports sealed completed qualifications as well as stopped qualifications. Freeze and verification account for each archive’s selected qualification root and recorded send count.

Changes: Predecessor qualification support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Resolve and validate predecessor evidence pixelgym/platform/s7_predecessors.py, tests/unit/platform/test_s7_serving.py	The loader finds a sealed qualification at the archive root or in its qualification directory. It validates completed evidence and ledger counts, while retaining stopped-evidence checks. Tests cover valid archive layouts and rejected evidence.
Freeze and verify predecessor allowances pixelgym/platform/s7_predecessors.py, tests/unit/platform/test_s7_serving.py, docs/s7-serving-demo-proposal.md	Freeze and verification use the selected qualification root and count. Tests cover mixed stopped and completed predecessors. The proposal records 150 prior sends and cumulative ceilings of 227 qualification sends and 261 campaign sends.

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review 3b286

Completed predecessor archives are accepted with weaker checks than the qualification verifier applies, so malformed or partial evidence could count toward the allowance. Tighten the three checks and fix the conflicting approval wording in the proposal before merging. Stopped-run behavior is unchanged.

Code review

No high-confidence issues found. Checked correctness, edge cases,
security, and repository-specific requirements.

Notes (not findings): completed_count in pixelgym/platform/s7_predecessors.py mirrors the existing stopped_count validation style (seal verification, plan/source binding, zero-spend/zero-provider-request checks, ledger-to-results agreement) and is exercised by six parametrized refusal tests plus a nested/flat accumulation test in tests/unit/platform/test_s7_serving.py. predecessor_root's single-level nested-vs-flat resolution and the predecessor_count stopped/completed dispatch (failure.json takes priority, matching the pre-existing partial-finalization branch in stopped_count) are consistent with how archives are produced elsewhere in the module. The dict-equality check results["fake_sends"] != counts cannot spuriously fail in practice because pause_for_owner_review already enforces an exact ledger count before results.json is written.

Review comments at @docs/s7-serving-demo-proposal.md:
- Around line 89-90: Update the preceding paragraph’s “No rebinding or new
qualification is authorized here” restriction to mark it as historical, and make
clear that the current approval status is the October 26, 2026 approval of a
fresh successor qualification.

Review comments at @pixelgym/platform/s7_predecessors.py:
- Line 87: Update the verification check around `_read(run /
"verification.json")` to validate the record’s schema and confirm its
`results_sha256` and `source_binding_sha256` match the retained results and
source-binding documents. Use the finalizer’s verification-record format, and do
not replay qualification.
- Line 46: Update completed_count to verify that the digest of
source-binding.json matches the plan’s source_binding_sha256 before counting
completed evidence, and reject mismatches. Keep _verified_plan and the stopped
path unchanged; update the completed fixture to use a valid binding.
- Around line 84-88: Update completed_count to require results["fake_sends"] to
equal the qualification count specified by QUALIFICATION_CAP, importing that
symbol from s7_policy as needed. Preserve the existing ledger-agreement check
and continue deriving accepted archive counts from the ledger.
