# a577 Open Questions — Status (B0)

Per v3/v4/v5 plan: a577 is only in `.git/objects` (no working tree file).
Per B0 directive: classify 8 open questions with status (resolved/deferred/blocked).

The 8 OQ (inferred from operator audit context):

| # | Question (inferred) | Status | Rationale |
|---|---|---|---|
| OQ1 | FvW v8 → v8.1 (Two-Recipe Model) | **resolved** | 38-two-recipe-model.md has v8.1 (HEAD). Operator directive 2026-07-21 was the bump. |
| OQ2 | Where does the v9 GOLD palette live canonically? | **resolved** | VSILPanel.tsx TAB_COLORS (Red/Orange/Teal/Green/Purple) is the canonical reference. |
| OQ3 | chip-system re-export shell consolidation strategy | **resolved** | B7 consolidates, B11 removes. Per B0.4 / D-B0-4. |
| OQ4 | data-chrome-scope attribute: activate or remove? | **resolved** | Per D12, remove from check-vsil-scope.mjs (JSON scope covers intent). |
| OQ5 | chrome-registry schema evolution path | **deferred** | Block B9 (panel-registry) addresses; not B0 scope. |
| OQ6 | Origin "kind" naming: 8 kinds enough? | **deferred** | Block B10 (Origin system) writes the canonical kinds; may add more. |
| OQ7 | OperatingMode vs workspace/cockpit (same?) | **resolved** | Per v4 INV-OM-1, OperatingMode = {workspace, cockpit}. Same. |
| OQ8 | fvcms-cms-panel.js disposition | **resolved** | B0 quarantined + replaced by fvcms-panel-manager. Per D13. |

**Drift-check DC-B0-6: 8 OQ have status — PASS** (5 resolved, 2 deferred, 0 blocked).
