The check sat parked as "blocked on an operator decision" on the strength of 0 of 18 repos signing. That zero was never evidence against it: it is what a practice nobody has adopted yet looks like, and reasoning from it makes the gate ratify the status quo it exists to move. The rule that settled it asks something else — would a public AAA+ repository do this? Yes, and unlike the two conventions that killed VERSION-DRIFT, there is no second convention under which release tags are better left unattributable. The measurement then decided the SCOPE, not the yes. Across 20 clones: 158 v* tags, 144 annotated, 14 lightweight, 0 signed, and not one dated after 2026-08-12. A boolean "this org signs" would have failed 20 correct repositories on day one with force-moving 144 published refs as its only remedy — the mechanism that gets gates switched off. So the policy is a DATE in the register (never in the engine, the rule that keeps the org-profile exemption a flag): nothing fires today, teeth at each repo's next release. Verified both directions, because a sweep returning zero proves nothing on its own — a dead check returns zero too. 21 repos: 18 PREPOLICY + 3 NONE, 0 ERROR, 0 WARN; then against real git objects an unsigned post-policy newest tag does fire ERROR. Two exclusions keep one defect from being counted twice: a lightweight tag has no object to carry a signature (byDesign skip naming TAG-ANNOTATED as owner), and a pre-policy tag was correct when cut (OK, said out loud, never silence). It answers "is it signed", never "does the forge vouch for it". The README row ships in this commit, not after it, and the stale test count in CLAUDE.md (230 → 241) is corrected here rather than left for the next reader.
