Independent real Opus 5 at effort max follow-up review. Production sources remain exactly 9ebe81c1b3611f9cc73e676b5b741c2be62c467a; no fix implemented. Consensus target: docs/investigations/r5/plan-v2.md sha256 5a782acf3f285b23d1ae43a73481c4eb772a9a6d917fc5a550ecfc7cbf7446ca. Read that complete v2 plan, docs/investigations/r5/opus-v1-response.md, and your preserved docs/investigations/r5/opus-v1-review.md. Focus on the five prior blocking items and disposition; do not repeat a broad repository audit. Read precise source as needed to decide.

R1 accepted (no empty/no-revision fallback). R3 confirmed against pinned SDK; actual SDK wire test now in /Users/vonng/tmp/silo-r5-20260915-77ad/matrix_test.go and /Users/vonng/tmp/silo-r5-20260915-77ad/discussion-baseline.log. R4 accepted plus a uniform multi-pool guard before per-set write, since normal GetObjectInfo/GetObjectNInfo can return primary pool and not merged latest revision. R5 explicit strictly-newer-than-stored. R2 challenged: same nonempty value at T1 and T3 can hide an intervening delete at T2; empty-only forcing would drop re-addition T3 and allow delayed delete. We accept one metadata COPY per explicitly scheduled retry/heal/resync for explicit revisions. Completed queueReplicationHeal returns early unless resync (cmd/bucket-replication.go ~3758); replicateObject requeues only Failed (~1305). No endless background loop is introduced. A new HEAD revision protocol seems more complexity than justified; evaluate the concrete correctness/cost tradeoff. Both equal-empty and equal-nonempty baseline action tests in discussion-baseline.log expose loss.

Correct one nonblocking claim too: although COPY sender does not forward a public KMS header, destination bucket defaults/globalAutoEncryption apply BEFORE copyDstOpts (object-handlers.go 1425-1435), so COPY can still depend on R4. R4 has independently reproduced this. Plan documents tag-filter eligibility and unversioned content overwrite as pre-existing scope limits; per-hop guarantees only.

Return APPROVE / APPROVE_WITH_NONBLOCKING_NOTES / REQUEST_CHANGES for this EXACT v2 and hash, with explicit blocker count and per-item resolution. If R2 is still blocking, provide the smallest concrete alternative that passes the X@T1/delete@T2/X@T3/reordered-delete case, not an empty-only suggestion. Do not claim consensus with remaining blockers. Do not edit or attempt Write; only return text. Model identity will be verified from raw assistant metadata.
