+# Phase 0 status
+
+Last updated: 2026-10-17
+
+## Completed
+
+- Both repositories use `main` and have pushed, reviewable histories.
+- PrivateStash uses Git LFS and preserves `raw/**` without line-ending or text
+  normalization.
+- The existing installer-stick source was read without modifying Google Drive.
+- Private evidence snapshot `b6edf29` contains 307 files totaling 79,386,307
+  bytes; 135 new LFS objects were uploaded in that import.
+- Private manifest commit `50e589c` contains 307 SHA-256 entries, 307 matching
+  Drive-file provenance entries, and 29 folder provenance entries.
+- Public configuration analysis is linked to nine sanitized evidence entries.
+- A private 340-token deny-list checks known Drive and machine identifiers
+  without storing those identifiers publicly.
+- A fresh clone of both remotes passed `git fsck`; the private clone additionally
+  passed `git lfs fsck` and reproduced the expected file and byte counts.
+- The public test suite and leak guard pass against the fresh private deny-list.
+- No vendor executable, plugin, DLL, or driver was run. No USB capture, framing,
+  machine command, or laser output was performed.
+
+## Pending external acquisition
+
+The current development computer is not the LightBurn control computer: no
+LightBurn executable or local LightBurn preferences directory was present.
+Consequently, these items remain pending from the actual control machine:
+
+- Help → About screenshot;
+- full `.lbzip` bundle and `.lbprefs` export;
+- closed-application preferences-folder archive;
+- Device Settings screenshots;
+- known-working `.lbrn2` examples;
+- safe exterior hardware/label photographs and startup/interlock notes;
+- live Windows Device Manager confirmation of USB VID/PID and driver.
+
+Collect them directly into a dated directory under PrivateStash by following
+the [LightBurn checklist](../collection/lightburn.md). Do not use Google Drive
+as an intermediate project workspace and do not generate Support Data.
+
+Phase 0 remains open until these control-machine artifacts are hashed,
+committed, pushed, and represented by sanitized public evidence.
