+### Reconciliation archive — 2026-10-28

+The owner explicitly superseded the former local-preservation instruction for
+the seven untracked reconciliation artifacts below. They were all confirmed
+untracked and moved, without overwrite, to the local archive outside this Git
+repository:
+
+`/home/alice/projects/wrk/aia/local-archives/azinstitute4autism-route-reconciliation-2026-10-28`

+They remain excluded from Git because they are superseded intermediate or
+local-only evidence. Filename-reference review found historical report links
+only; no runtime, test, build or audit dependency. The tracked final evidence
+remains `route-reconciliation-2026-10-20-offline-18-37-43-828Z.json` and
+`route-reconciliation-2026-10-22-offline-05-10-47-827Z.json`. Historical
+reports may retain filename references as their contemporaneous record; no
+active dependency remains unresolved. The four October 11–13 files were moved
+under this explicit authorization without parsing or checksumming their
+contents.
 
 Exclude root `merge-plan.md` and temporary `.phase8-stage-paths.nul` as well.
 The old `.phase7-stage-paths.nul` is absent; do not recreate it.
