Scope

Refs #253. This test-only slice covers the existing in-process CLI entrypoint; it does not add another runner or change runtime behavior.

• Exercise prepare, both arms' stage/capture, and report through the real argument parser and dispatch.
• Retain exact synthetic source, separate author-supplied logs and receipts; reject stale heads, missing flags/submission and repeated capture.
• Delete live workspaces/submissions before reporting, then verify replay uses retained bytes without changing original result/receipt files.
• Trap automatic execution and explicitly test a fake verifier plus SandboxUnavailable. Unknown usage and author-reported, unverified comparability remain visible.

Verification and boundaries

Relevant six-suite aggregate: 184 passed, 2 skipped. The 3 new cases also passed independent review/test. Whole-tree Ruff and diff checks passed. Published tree is byte-identical to the reviewed local tree; normal PR CI remains required.

These are synthetic in-process CLI software controls, not a subprocess-isolation qualification, actual local-agent run, 19-case production-verifier result or measured skill benefit. No model/provider/hardware calls. The real author execution → author PR evidence → independent disposition acceptance in #253 remains open; historical #90 cloud results are not rebound to its newer head. No runtime, controller, task fixture, workflow or paid configuration changes.

Authorship

Actual implementation and independent review: Codex / gpt-6-astra / xhigh.

Scoped software LGTM for 72baef53605b31f54698627b824507f18e5e2431 against ae0d3221: no blocking finding in this one-file, test-only change. The published test bytes match the independently reviewed local tree. The tests exercise real in-process CLI parsing/dispatch, retained-source replay and refusal paths without changing runtime behavior.

Evidence and acceptance limits

• Independent offline checks: the 3 new cases passed; the existing local-evaluation suite passed 24 tests. Automatic execution is trapped; the verifier is explicitly synthetic or unavailable.
• Author's relevant aggregate: 184 passed, 2 pre-existing isolation skips. These skips are not qualification passes.
• Fresh readback: Ready run 41208043444 completed successfully with all five jobs passing; latest declarations passed. The superseded cancelled run is not counted as a pass. Current-head native review reports no findings; no review threads are open.
• This supports the CLI regression scope only: not subprocess confinement, an actual author/agent run, the 19-check production verifier, or skill effectiveness. The real author execution → retained PR evidence → independent disposition acceptance in #253 remains open; useful PLANNED guidance is separate work.
