Dependency and capacity check

Missing essential inputs: not yet inspected.
Human/external dependency, owner and expected date: not yet inspected.
Week-specific constraint: If no sale/invoice, week 29 is a second selling week as v5 requires. Do not issue a fictitious invoice to pass the gate or describe an invoice as cash received.
Existing session authorization for external actions or spending: not assessed; local planning only at scaffold creation.
Scope to cut first: optional polish/additional examples; preserve scientific validity.
If the forecast exceeds available time: record a concrete reduced scope or revised delivery proposal before committing.

Peter's commitment / adjustments: pending. Reviewing model and date: pending.
