blacksite-release-candidate	Nominate and verify one Blacksite candidate tree or commit, reuse still-valid selective verification evidence, run the remaining full release gates once, produce an evidence manifest, and hand results to Gitea synchronization.

Blacksite release candidate

Read .codex/workflow.toml and the release gates. Require stable scope, no pending major delta, and Candidate-ready session state.

1. Record the candidate SHA or dirty-tree digest.
2. Read the verification ledger and reuse every gate whose relevant input digest and lane signature remain valid.
3. Run only missing/invalid release gates via verify.py candidate and managed candidate/package lanes.
4. Preserve final binaries/package output and required native evidence before disposable-lane pruning.
5. Write .codex/session/candidate-evidence.json with commands, digests, results, artifacts, screenshots, and documentation status.
6. Run documentation integrity and hand a dry-run/authorized candidate update to blacksite-gitea-sync.

Do not push, close, or change tracker scope outside direct or configured authority. Run full workspace/all-feature tests and strict lint only once per candidate code digest.
