# Result Summary

TA9 Safe Runtime Slot Design Freeze Audit completed as static review only.

Conclusion:
- decision_class: TA9_SHADOW_DESIGN_READY
- P1_implementation_allowed: false
- shadow_logging_implementation_allowed: true
- Exact shadow slot: KOUCHA_GOLD_KIWAMI_SURVIVAL_TICK.mq5 / OnTick / after lines 2155-2163 and before lines 2164-2171.
- Real TA9 or TA5 Exit remains not allowed.

Key findings:
- `distance_to_hardstop_yen = GetHardStopThresholdYen() - GetFloatingLossYen(ps)`.
- `ps.floatingProfit` includes `POSITION_PROFIT + POSITION_SWAP`; commission is not explicitly added.
- The observed `distance=-8.16` with `HardStopNow=false` is explained by diagnostic stage traces passing `hardStop=false`, not by the HardStop formula itself.
- TA5 is not a fallback for "no priority change"; it also needs the same pre-HardStop structural slot for real Exit.

Next allowed action:
- Implement non-intervening TA9 Shadow Logging only, then validate same-tick parity and distance boundary behavior out-of-sample.
