pkt.2 — coverage gap (green-but-dead): link_in_index preserves the existing
index byte-for-byte and in order on the SUCCESS path by construction, but
nothing asserted it. Byte-equality was checked only on the REFUSAL path
(test_step8_promotion_loadbearing.py Test A); other tests check mere line
MEMBERSHIP. A writer that kept every link but reordered/rewrote the existing
body would pass the whole suite — the exact ingest-spec §6 / Step-8 promotion
invariant we rely on (promoted verdict links survive re-ingest byte-for-byte).
New test uses deliberately non-sorted existing links; proven load-bearing (a
temporary `sorted()` reorder mutation flips it RED, then reverted). Test-only,
no production change.
pkt.4 — shared_root.py docstring overclaimed "Every MAF-side consumer resolves
through this ONE seam". Verified: both runtime consumers (persona, simulation)
do route through shared_root(); the 15 test modules hardcode the in-repo
fixture path deliberately (a test needing the real fixture must not be
redirected by a production env var). Scoped the claim to "runtime consumer"
rather than churning 15 test files to make a false claim true.
Full suite 415 passed, ruff + mypy clean.

One call-time resolver (env PORTFOLIO_SHARED_ROOT, default the in-repo
shared/) consumed by both MAF-side readers of the shared core:
persona._example_path() (the _EXAMPLE_PATH monkeypatch seam is kept) and
simulation._default_bundle_dir() (replaces the _BUNDLE_DIR module global).
De-risks the S4 extraction: re-pointing the commons becomes an env var,
not a code change. Override test proves the marker follows a tmp copy of
the whole shared tree; both detach points proven RED. Suite 155->157.
