[GATE_19] CANARY_SMOKE_TEST_FAILHIGH

Live canary end-to-end user journeys have not completed on isolated canary node.

Remediation: Examine canary logs, roll back canary version, debug user journey failure.

PESU PHASE II CERTIFICATION INVARIANT RULES

PESU is authoritatively classified as CONDITIONAL. Core engineering, real-time sync, passcode authentication, and data integrity are certified and verified with zero invariant regressions across 210+ automated tests. Full commercial launch requires empirical evidence for the remaining 5 validation areas: (1) physical mobile device ceremony, (2) live distributed multi-node load test at 65K+ QPS, (3) disaster recovery failover drill with measured RTO/RPO, (4) jurisdiction-specific legal counsel sign-off, and (5) live signed payment webhook verification.
