rdmsm4x - verification - rdmodelrouter routing v3 VERIFY-3 FAIL (R4) - claude@rdmsm4x - independent verify round 3 - rdmodelrouter - 2026-09-27 17:55 EDT → 2026-09-27 18:04:18 EDT

• Host: rdmsm4x.
• Agent: claude@rdmsm4x, independent verifier for lead rdmodelrouter@rdmsm4x/rmr0926.
• Subject: branch rmr/routing-intel-20260927 @ 882f619. It was not edited: 0 dirty entries before and after.
• Output: /Users/richh/dev/_handoff/rdmodelrouter-routing-20260927/VERIFY-3.md (VERDICT: FAIL), plus verify-3-evidence/ and app-{try,map,defaults}-3.png.

What passed:

• The catalog matches the live CLI and Ollama lists: 82 entries, and 33/33 Ollama models across 6 hosts.
• Golden picks and labels match 15/15, and every pick is deterministic.
• Within-service selection works, and quota mutation changes picks.
• Verifier ≠ builder holds in 21/21 runs.
• Routing works with the network denied.
• Tests: 135/19 suites with rc 0; Python 5/5. Mutation 1 was caught.
• The app builds as universal2, launches, and all three tabs were captured.
• The secret scan found zero key values.

What failed:

• R4: the weak-noun repo gate matches an action word anywhere in the prompt, and "build" confirms itself. Rewordings of the addendum's bulk xattr job ("update … xattr tags", "Build an xattr index", "create xattr labels") go to cloud codex instead of local.
• Gaps: G1–G11, listed in VERIFY-3.md.
