# GH-PNCC successful receipt event-journal evidence binding

## Corrected runtime fact

A persisted successful wake receipt carried an `eventJournal` path but validation did not rebind that path to
the exact runtime session directory. A modified receipt could point readers or recovery tooling at another log,
recompute the outer payload digest and still be accepted for safe binding or replay.

Validation now derives the only valid journal path from the trusted runtime root and verified session identity,
then requires the wake receipt to match the exact `sessions/<session-id>/events.jsonl` path. This binding is
checked during inspection, recovery binding, replay and the post-inspection binding revalidation path.

## Verification

- A regression test first reproduced `SAFE_BIND_PERSISTED_RECEIPT` after replacing `eventJournal` and
  recomputing the payload digest.
- The same forged receipt now fails with `PERSONA_LIFECYCLE_COMPLETION_EVIDENCE_MISMATCH`.
- PNCC focused Rust tests: `51 passed, 0 failed`.
- Full Rust suite: `1191 passed, 2 ignored`; integration test: `1 passed`.
- Routing focus: `4 passed`; formatting, strict clippy and diff checks passed.
- Full product quality, publication and fresh-clone readback remain pending.

## Truth boundary

- This stage authenticates the durable event-log location already emitted by the persona runtime.
- It does not add a second event store, expose hidden reasoning, implement an execution limb, add UI, build an
  artifact or claim deployment/runtime health.
