DDR-D062-B. A descriptor is a rendezvous hint, not a credential for the
server direction: a file is copyable, so ACL or pathname inspection can
never decide whether given bytes are a genuine runtime's or a replay of
bytes copied earlier.
Descriptor v4 carries exactly {version, pipeName, token} and no verify
key; one that carries a key is rejected outright rather than partially
trusted. A third build-provenanced, hash-gated, read-only native
artifact asks the KERNEL which process serves a candidate pipe, pins it
against PID reuse by its exact creation time, reads its TokenUser SID,
and relays one bounded hello read from the SAME pipe handle. The CLI
requires that SID to equal the trusted operator SID the anchor gate
already resolved, and requires the command session's own hello to
announce the very same verify key.
Server results are Ed25519 signatures under that attested key over a
transcript binding runtime id, pipe name, key, both nonces, and the
exact command and result bytes. computeServerMac is deleted, so no code
can fall back to authenticating a result with a copyable bearer secret;
the token is retained as the client-to-server authorizer only. The
signing key is ephemeral and never serialized, so a squatter holding a
byte-perfect descriptor copy can neither pass attestation nor sign.

The D3 architecture document is the only place the D062 control-channel contract is stated, and it drifted: the protocol commit changed the descriptor version, the native artifact set, and the authentication primitives while touching no document. The contract therefore described descriptor v2, two native artifacts, and mutual-HMAC server authentication that no longer exists. Bring the document to the implementation: descriptor v4 carrying no verify key and why a copyable file can never be one; the third build-provenanced artifact and its provenance module; live pipe attestation with kernel-reported server identity, creation-time pinning against PID reuse, the operator-SID equality check, and the key binding that ties the command session to the attested runtime; and the two directions authenticated by different primitives -- a token-keyed client MAC for the command, an Ed25519 signature under the attested ephemeral key for the result, with no server-side HMAC to fall back to. Add a deterministic guard so the next drift fails instead of going unnoticed. Its expectations are implementation-derived, never a document snapshot: the descriptor version is read from the factory that mints descriptors and the artifact set from the basename exports that provisioning itself is built from, so a fourth artifact or a version bump trips it automatically. Prose, rationale, and ordering stay free; only the machine-checkable constants and the absence of the retired primitive name are bound. Documentation and test only.

The contract listed a failed result-signature check alongside the pre-send checks and claimed all of them fail closed before the command is sent. That is false for the signature: the runtime signs only after dispatch has returned, so a lost, malformed, or unverifiable result carries no information about whether OPEN_HUMAN_GATE was applied. Split the two classes. Pre-send failures guarantee no mutation. Post- dispatch result-authentication failures do not; the CLI fails authentication and never reports APPLIED, and re-running is the correct recovery because the command is idempotent (Decision 062 section 15). Documentation only.
