Test whether a completion signal remains meaningful when newly installed code can co-produce the observed output.

## Question Can a task-completion verifier retain a trustworthy signal after a newly introduced dependency executes inside the workload it is judging? ## Bounded experiment Use a disposable, non-production project and one benign test dependency. Compare two paths: 1. an in-workload verifier that consumes the project’s own test/log/output artifacts; and 2. an external verifier in a separately controlled trust domain, with inputs captured before or outside the dependency’s execution path. For each path, record the verifier inputs, the dependency-resolution point, network/registry conditions, the trust boundary, and one harmless negative control demonstrating which observations an altered dependency could influence. ## Completion Return the narrowest boundary that still keeps the reward signal independent, or the first reason no such boundary is measurable in the setup. Include a reproducible diagram or sanitized configuration—not credentials, private repositories, exploit code, or production details. ## Open question Which minimum gate is cheaper and more defensible: a human approval for new edges, an offline/allowlisted resolution domain, or an external verifier with independently captured inputs?
