The readiness evidence below is historical. The 2026-08-18 build/reference revalidation passed, but fresh physics and release audits are still required before a current ready-for-release verdict may be issued.

This is an internal feature-readiness verdict. It authorizes no publish, deploy, package, tag, push, external release, or reference-artifact operation.

Identity and contradiction audit

• All feature-level reports use linear-static-3d-euler-beam, the same approved design path, authoritative HDF5 contract, logical model cantilever-beam-b33, legacy schema, and exact reference/cantilever beam/ baseline from 2b34d0b.
• The formulation metadata uses the narrower element-document identity 3d-isoparametric-euler-beam. This is not a competing release feature: it names the exact formulation path referenced by the approved feature requirements, design, numerical review, I/O contract, reference-model contract, and implementation plan. Its source_requirement and approved_design links establish the same release lineage.
• The implementation report aggregate metadata still says status: in-progress. This is a stale aggregate header, not an unresolved release gate: every TASK-07 through TASK-24 block is completed, all corresponding phase-index entries are completed, Step 25 independently audited all 18 blocks, and a fresh build/discovery/full CTest passed 83/83. The Step 25 report reaches the same explicit nonblocking conclusion. The upstream implementation report was not modified.
• Final review reproduced that the former Step 26 sample acceptance probe rejected a valid passed=true artifact because it read a nonexistent string status. The phase probe now reads the authoritative boolean passed; its exact command was rerun successfully without changing source, tests, tolerance, or reference artifacts.
• The Step 25 prose contains a typo in the input SHA-256. Fresh Step 26/27 hashes, Git diff/status, exact row reconstruction, and passing comparison evidence preserve artifact identity.

Acceptance Traceability

Evidence aliases used below are exact upstream identities: BT25 is the build/test report; RV26 is the reference-verification report; PE27 is the physics-evaluation report. Model IDs (an-*, cv-*, neg-b33-input-contract, cantilever-beam-b33) and NR-T01 through NR-T11 are defined by the approved reference-model and numerical-review documents. Every row has priority must in the approved Requirement Verification Matrix.

Release Notes Draft

Feature Summary

• Adds the internally release-ready FESA V0 end-to-end single-step linear-static 3D Euler-Bernoulli beam pipeline for Abaqus TYPE=B33 input.
• Supports stable identity instances, deterministic DOF/sparse assembly, separate PARDISO factorization/substitution, nonzero prescribed displacement, residual reactions, and atomic HDF5 results.h5 output.
• Writes mandatory displacement, reaction, equilibrium end action, endpoint section resultant, generalized strain/resultant, and axial S11 regardless of Abaqus output requests.

Verification Scope

• Fresh Visual Studio 18 2026/MSVC x64 Debug build passed under /W4 /WX with zero warnings and all 83 discovered tests passing.
• The approved read-only cantilever-beam-b33 bundle passed all 176 displacement/reaction/section rows and all 16 metric groups under absolute_floor + 1e-6 * reference_scale.
• Physics evaluation passed force/moment equilibrium, reactions, displacement/rotation signs, zero symmetry, end/section balance, local/global mapping, residual, S11, energy/modes, and complementary analytical coverage.

Main Limitations

• No B31, multiple steps, transforms/nested assembly, I12!=0, *DLOAD, nonlinear, dynamic, contact, thermal, shear-stress, or warping-stress support.
• Abaqus beam stress reference comparison is N/A; nonzero S11 evidence is analytical/unit-based.
• The legacy space-containing four-file reference bundle is a read-only exception. New bundles must use canonical names and metadata.
• The single Abaqus cantilever is supplemented by analytical/unit models and does not establish full Abaqus B33 compatibility or experimental validation.
• Accepted Minor test-depth and alternate-environment portability limits remain as documented in Known Limitations.

Artifacts

• Authoritative solver output for a run: HDF5 results.h5.
• Approved reference baseline: reference/cantilever beam/ exact four-file legacy bundle.
• Gate evidence: the Build/Test, Reference Verification, and Physics Evaluation reports listed in Metadata; deterministic build-local comparison.json is review evidence, not solver output.

Release Verdict

• verdict: ready-for-release
• status: ready-for-release
• reason: all required upstream gates are present and passing, Steps 0-27 are completed, all 44 must requirements have complete acceptance/test/reference/disposition traceability, reference identity is unchanged, known limitations and accepted risks are documented, and no unresolved blocker exists.
• authority_boundary: internal feature readiness only; no publish, deploy, package, tag, push, external release, or reference-artifact change is authorized. Harness-owned phase evidence commits remain part of the internal development workflow, not release publication.

Handoff Recommendation

target_agent	reason	required input
Coordinator Agent	Close the internal feature workflow with ready-for-release.	This report, exact three-gate reports, phase index Step 28 completion, and the documented authority boundary.
Correction Agent	N/A; no implementation-owned blocker exists.	N/A
Reference Verification Agent	N/A; required comparison passed.	N/A
Physics Evaluation Agent	N/A; required physics review passed.	N/A

No release engineering, packaging, publication, tag, push, or external coordination was performed. Harness/root phase-evidence commits are internal workflow records, not an external release action.

Open Issues

• Blocking issues: none.
• Nonblocking documentation issue: the implementation report aggregate status: in-progress is stale; completed Step blocks, phase index, and Step 25 fresh audit are authoritative for release closure. It remains unchanged to preserve upstream audit independence.
• Resolved final-review finding: Step 26 now probes authoritative passed=true, and the exact acceptance command passes. The remaining Step 25 input-hash prose typo is nonblocking; later exact hashes and Git audits resolve identity without changing artifacts.
• Nonblocking accepted Minors: comparator file-type defense-in-depth coverage, future multi-source diagnostic ordering, and alternate-HDF5 libmmd.dll staging portability remain as documented.
• Deferred behavior is limited to the Known Limitations and is not claimed as supported.
