+# v0.4.49 candidate gate, 26 October 2026
+
+The version bump at `6247dfb` follows the merged Music Control repair
+([#338](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/338)), the real Decky
+runtime gate ([#343](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/343)), and
+the fail-closed publisher ([#344](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/344)).
+The published v0.4.48 draft remains withdrawn. This candidate is not a
+published update.
+
+## Locked real Frame smoke
+
+At 22:48 UTC, `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` ran from exact version-bumped source
+commit `6247dfb` on SteamOS 0.5.6, build `20261022.6153909`. It acquired a
+unique `/tmp/frame-test.lock` owner before reading status. SteamVR activity was
+**3 (standby)**, proximity raw **3.0625**, and battery **99%**. The result was
+**12 passed / one optional x86_64 launch skipped / zero failed**. The x86_64
+title could not launch because Steam Linux Runtime 4 was not installed; no
+x86_64 launch is claimed. ARM64 and Windows/Proton test titles installed,
+launched and were removed. The script's owned cleanup passed and exited 0.
+The private result is
+`tests/smoke/results/2026-10-26T224816Z-20261022.6153909.json`.
+
+A separate read-only audit acquired a fresh unique lock after the smoke. It
+found activity **3**, proximity raw **3.0**, battery **99%**, no `fc_smoke_*`
+or `fc-smoke-*` title folders and no matching test processes. The audit
+released only its own lock. Neither run woke the headset or ran the worn
+interaction script. No wearer was confirmed; official-plugin wearer
+visibility, physical controller input, VR keyboard and optical comfort remain
+unverified.
+
+## Remaining publication gates
+
+The final candidate head needs green PR CI, native amd64 and ARM64 Decky
+runtime checks, all four installer previews, post-merge exact-commit main CI,
+tagged builds of all ten installers, checksums, independent package
+verification, publisher dry run and public update-channel readback. A gate
+that fails, is cancelled or remains pending holds publication.
