+## v3.4.0 post-publication recursive closure
+
+A post-release closure campaign was completed against the immutable `v3.4.0` tag at `2db5bff64507b8d67642122a5ff2fc73dfef9152` plus the captured heads of the six v3.4 clean-room repositories, `ENTITY-GITHUB-APP`, and six published domain repositories. The frozen capture contains 984 exact Git blobs, 45 GitHub API evidence records and 11 release-evidence artifacts: 1,040 constituents / 5,136,474 bytes.

+The closure target is finite and immutable: the `v3.4.0` release plus the captured external repository heads. The later commit that publishes the closure evidence is not defined as a constituent of that already-frozen target, because requiring a record to ingest the event that publishes itself would create non-terminating self-reference. This remains BTG-controlled evidence and does not establish independent third-party validation, objective truth, legal/regulatory approval, market adoption or accounting fair value.

+# ENTITY v3.4.0 Post-Release Recursive Closure — 2026-09-24
+
+**Status: PASS**
+
+This campaign closes the post-publication recursive provenance gap for the immutable ENTITY `v3.4.0` release at `2db5bff64507b8d67642122a5ff2fc73dfef9152`.
+
+## Frozen target
+
+- ENTITY `v3.4.0` exact Git tree plus its final release/PR/CI/publisher evidence.
+- Six BTG-controlled v3.4 clean-room repositories at captured `main` commits.
+- `ENTITY-GITHUB-APP` at its captured qualified `main` commit plus installation/webhook evidence.
+- Six published v3.4 domain repositories and their sealed archive evidence.
+- Exact Git blob bytes were used; Windows checkout line-ending transformations were not trusted.
+
+## Coverage
+
+- Git-tracked source/repository files: **984**
+- GitHub API evidence records: **45**
+- Additional release evidence artifacts: **11**
+- Frozen constituents: **1040**
+- Frozen constituent bytes: **5,136,474**
+- ENTITY-native ingested objects including closure anchor: **1041**
+
+## Canonical roots
+
+- Git blob inventory: `2c4c535f1d0378b37f493a0a14e5f51f5cbb13741233c184037760e2dcc3bf44`
+- Frozen constituent root: `4feb51a4bd0d958b7beb3eddbe9fd78678b7c31c2a4fe3d6cf7d9f4d87aa6e06`
+- ENTITY-ingested constituent root: `4feb51a4bd0d958b7beb3eddbe9fd78678b7c31c2a4fe3d6cf7d9f4d87aa6e06`
+
+## ENTITY-native governed state
+
+- ENTITY objects: **1041**
+- signed Evidence Objects: **1041**
+- rights records: **1041**
+- Rights Passports: **1041**
+- Global Passports: **1041**
+- explicit zero-value records: **1041**
+- zero-weight provenance edges from closure anchor: **1040**
+
+Each constituent is recoverable from the content-addressed ENTITY vault and is bound to an ENTITY object, signed evidence, rights record, Rights Passport, Global Passport and zero-value economic baseline. The zero-weight provenance edges describe membership in the closure corpus; they do not invent contribution percentages or ownership.
+
+## Destructive recovery proof
+
+The generated closure state was encrypted using AES-256-GCM, deleted, restored, and re-opened. The exact state tree, canonical SQLite semantic root and content-vault root were identical before destruction and after recovery.
+
+- state tree: `6e054beaa96c089b3958973c834b3ddb2dda2466961c7ac67a748c7813c22925`
+- SQLite semantic root: `9c8ed4e767adf37abad6f0a2492e8a8007126fc1264218d0d184a4f6e7fa4231`
+- content vault root: `6ffc454b88c06f9da72db5854c3018a8fc5e0f3a334d829eafafeb0f9dbd4280`
+- sovereign export tree: `ce155ac3755d37292b69dd97aa24a4e9635e23950de016529640555f23b79149`
+
+All **1041** registered objects were rechecked after recovery; their vault bytes, Evidence Objects, Rights Passports and Global Passports all verified.
+
+## Closure boundary
+
+The frozen closure target is the immutable `v3.4.0` release plus the external BTG-controlled repositories/evidence captured for this campaign. This report and its later publication commit are intentionally outside that frozen target: requiring a record to ingest the event that publishes that same record would create non-terminating self-reference rather than a meaningful finite closure.
+
+## Claim boundary
+
+This is a BTG-controlled recursive qualification. It proves content integrity, attributable provenance, governed rights/passport registration, release-evidence capture and destructive recovery for the named frozen corpus. It does **not** establish objective external truth, unrelated third-party interoperability, independent security review, legal or regulatory compliance, market adoption/liquidity, legal ownership, or accounting fair value. Provider custody remains non-authoritative, and no monetary value or historical contribution percentage was invented.
