Latest summary

review-required: seeded-slice release/status blocker implemented and 18 focused tests pass; needs human review of release-scope guardrail and generated release artifacts before marking done.

Body

Parent reviewer sweep t_1aeadf3a found that top-level release/status surfaces still show seeded-slice population counts and some pass_with_warnings decisions. Acceptance: release/status aggregation must distinguish seeded smoke/internal slices from national candidate bundles; PASS/done language must be scoped to declared bundle readiness or HARD residual exactness, not final 1:1 country completion.
