# Phase 1.0L write-firewall result analysis Status: **ONE-SHOT AUTHORIZATION CONSUMED; FIRST WRITE IS MKDIR**. The exact ignored Phase-1.0J artifact ran once on firmware 9.60 through the manifest-gated Phase-1.0K runner. The host received a valid terminal trace with no parser error, retry or reconnect: ```text D00 D01 D02(0) I00 I01 I02 I03 D13(6,1) D12(6,118) ``` `D13` is source-defined as `(first_blocked_write, write_block_count)`. Enum value 6 is `CHIMERA_SMOKE_WRITE_MKDIR`; the count was one. `D12` records shutdown reason 6 (`WRITE_FIREWALL`) and first error 118 (`E118_WRITE_BLOCKED`). The J guard observed shutdown and returned before I04, so this run did not enter SDL, VideoOut or rendering. ## Bounded cause The exact source, map, disassembly and relocation evidence agree on this bounded call chain: ```text I03 -> retroarch_parse_input_and_config() -> config_load() -> config_set_defaults() -> built-in playlist default-directory check -> path_mkdir() -> path_mkdir_cb -> mkdir write-firewall wrapper -> chimera_ps5_smoke_block_write(MKDIR) ``` The source site is `configuration.c:3357` at artifact source commit `2e385265ab893dbba5898178dde5e108d3dbfa19`. The ELF map binds `config_set_defaults=0x22ba0`, `path_mkdir=0x188f0` and `chimera_ps5_smoke_block_write=0x466d0`. Disassembly contains the conditional `path_mkdir` call at `0x26856`. The `path_mkdir_cb` relocation at `0x17c280` resolves to the wrapper at `0x15ae0`, which passes operation value 6. The runtime pathname was not included in D13 and is therefore **UNOBSERVED**. This evidence proves the operation category and compiled source route, not an on-device path identity or successful filesystem mutation. The firewall returned failure; no project filesystem write is evidenced. Normal SDK CRT effects remain inherited under ADR-0010, so the run is not classified as globally side-effect-free. ## Next offline boundary A later artifact phase may make one scoped source correction: when `CHIMERA_PS5_NO_FILESYSTEM_WRITES` is defined, skip the built-in playlist directory creation in `config_set_defaults` while preserving all in-memory path derivation and every write wrapper. It must then rebuild twice, re-audit the complete artifact and remain ineligible. It must not weaken the firewall, permit a real mkdir, infer a device path, or inherit this consumed authority. The historical H flip result remains separate. This K run intentionally never reached the dormant J D07 errno instrumentation, so flip errno, successful presentation and cleanup remain unproven. All current authorization and eligibility values are false. There is no connection, transfer, execution, result-receive, retry or reconnect authority.
