Construction role
Book VII does not refute Gödel and does not bypass incompleteness by slogan. It restricts the conditions under which unrestricted diagonal self-reference is available. The relevant claim is typed and bounded: τ is not treated as a single Gödel-style formal system with unrestricted self-encoding, but as a coherence kernel with layered witness discipline.
What this step earns
Gödel and halting boundary is made addressable as Step 096 in the fine-grained Construction Spine routing layer.
- Routing scaffold. Detailed earned-output extraction is pending the source-map pass.
What this step does not yet establish
This route exposes the RC3 construction step for inspection. It does not by itself establish peer review, empirical adequacy, or final manuscript-level source closure.
