One live suite; the hermetic suites have no skips

The coordinator’s LIVE-INTEROP decision (2026-10-07), carrying out UR-20 and UR-24:

• Everything that depends on the world outside the checkout — the hosted MCP endpoints and third-party servers started from the local npm/uv cache — runs in ONE named live suite, the engine’s test:live script (engine/package.json, engine/live/). It refuses at load without the root policy’s one declared consent (verification.networkUnderTest.liveConsentVariable), and a server it cannot start fails by name: never a skip, never a quiet green.
• The hermetic suites (the engine runner’s canonical set, the web vitest include and the Playwright specs) contain no skip, conditional or not: a capability a hermetic test needs is asserted, and a fact about the host (a mount point, another filesystem) is read from the host, never assumed. The ONE finder is engine/scripts/verification/hermetic-skips.ts and the whole-tree guard engine/test/prevention/hermetic-suites-have-no-skips.test.ts. The finder sees a skip by its SHAPE in the syntax tree, never by its words (LAND-OC-FIX round 12, E19): a skip call, option or chosen skip on a declarer or a test context, a skipping helper handed the context, a test registered only under a host condition, and the silent shape that caused this decision — a return inside a test body (at any depth outside nested functions) guarded by a condition that asks the host: process facts, a file’s presence, an os probe, the path separator, a host-capability name (host…, has…, can…, supports…, …Available, WSL), or a value the test did not compute itself. A host requirement — Linux, Landlock, the built guardian, a non-root user, a WSL drive — is asserted by name (engine/test/support/host-requirement.ts). The guard admits NO site: every one it found was fixed at its cause in round 12 (and the real site the round-13 re-verification named, subprocess-confinement-owner’s host-branched assertions), so there is no owned set. Known limits, stated (round 13): the finder does NOT yet see the shape that caused this decision when its value comes from an imported probe (const ok = await probe(); if (!ok) return;), a try {…} catch { return; }, a test registered by a logical linux && test(…) or a chosen (cond ? test : () => {})(…), a switch that returns, a guarded body with no return, a helper CALLED (not handed) that returns early, a beforeEach that returns early, and .mjs/.js tests; owned by the TASKS row HERMETIC-FINDER-SHAPES.
• Each live file’s test-surface disposition is qualified-external-oracle; the conservation pin they moved is restated by hand (live/mcp-servers.test.ts, then live/provider-smoke.test.ts in round 12). The pins are not part of the policy the disposition manifest is pinned to (LAND-OC-FIX round 5, design M4): a restated pin is checked by the conservation identity against the git index, and no token door re-signs a stale policy.
