Proof: Archived the quote lifecycle retention turn and opened detailed PROOF.md/IMPLEMENTATION.md for removing verifier salt refresh from quote-response execution hot path.
Assumptions: The current retention turn should be paused so the live salt-induced executor queue latency defect can take priority; no backlog item was selected because the turn was opened directly from live operator evidence.
Still fake: Planning only; salt cache refactor, executor rejection behavior, health/dashboard surfaces, deployment, and live latency evidence are not implemented yet.
