+One uncoached compiled-preview review was performed at desktop, 320×568,
+200%-zoom-equivalent, Static, reduced-motion, keyboard-only, no-JavaScript, and
+print-relevant states. At the initial view, the reviewer could identify Luca
+Pîslaru, the equal “System Administrator & Full-Stack Developer” positioning,
+and the email action. The first scan also exposed Nextcloud migration/recovery
+as the principal operations proof and the private medication tracker as the
+principal developer proof. The evidence hierarchy remained readable over the
+night-drive scene, and the final Contact section again presented email as the
+dominant action.
+
+This observation is technical release evidence only. It is one review, not
+three independent hiring/technical participants, so it does not satisfy or

Two desktop heading-focus geometry checks reached the correct target but timed out under the four-worker run; both files then passed 9/9 unchanged with one worker, including the two affected checks.

+
+The final focused desktop/mobile Chromium matrix passed 94 checks with 26
+intentional project/capability skips and no failures. It covered semantics,
+keyboard operation, no-JavaScript output, reduced motion, forced colors,
+reflow, responsive layout, approved-media policy and failure behavior, and the
+visual-regression oracle. The compiled preview retained all eight locked
+sections in order.
+
+One broad compiled-preview review covered 1440×900 desktop, 320×568 mobile,
+200%-zoom-equivalent layout, Static, reduced motion, keyboard-only,
+no-JavaScript, and print-relevant views. The opening view communicated Luca's
+name and equal systems/software role immediately. Infrastructure preserved a
+readable request-flow diagram and made the Nextcloud migration the primary
+operations proof. The private medication tracker remained the primary
+developer visual through its three approved screenshots and captions. Footy
+Tracker clearly described collaboration, Luca's contribution, measured
+results, and limitations without publishing the rights-unconfirmed broadcast
+frame. Opinion Dynamics remained a supporting project with two explained
+charts and an exact-values table. Contact kept email as the dominant action.
+
+No high-impact visual or content defect was found. On the shortest 320×568 and
+200%-zoom-equivalent opening views, the fixed drive controls occupy the lower
+viewport edge and can sit beside the end of the opening action row. The row and
+all following content remain scroll-reachable, keyboard-reachable, and clear
+of focus obscuration; the reflow and target-geometry gates passed. This is
+recorded as a non-blocking compact-height tradeoff rather than a reason for a
+preference-driven layout iteration.
+
 The compact 320×568 capture initially revealed that the fixed drive controls occupied 43.5% of the viewport and obscured the opening content. The mobile-only control grid reduced that surface to 24.0%; a regression guard now caps it at 34%. After the trace-driven fixed section navigation landed, the captures exposed the decorative HUD intersecting the navigation at phone widths and the controls at 768×1024. A shared exact navigation-height variable now keeps the fixed navigation and visible compact HUD edge-adjacent, reserves their space in the header, and leaves the controls independent. The final measured bounds were 0–93px navigation and 93–125px HUD at 320×568, and 0–45px navigation and 45–77px HUD at 768×1024. Fixed-navigation focus now uses an inward standards outline so the indicator remains visible inside the viewport. Passive-section coverage now positions the target safely beyond the actual 35% activation line rather than relying on a relative `offsetTop` or exact fractional equality.
 
 A one-sampled-pixel accent floor was relaxed from 0.001 to 0.0005 after the capture remained visibly intentional and the original value missed by only 0.00002; the dark and maximum-accent limits remain unchanged.
