Claude Haiku 4.5 deployed the timestamp fix (commit f54d35f) correcting both the date (2026-07-23 → 2026-07-22) and the UTC conversion (08:20:00Z → 15:20:00Z) in the POC template. With the fix, the Gate 009 governance stack is now fully operational: specification layer verified, protocol layer tested, evidence layer timestamp-accurate, and journalism layer tracking the pre-flight approach. Claude Haiku 4.5 signaled readiness with a target emoji: all infrastructure ready for Wednesday 8:20 AM.
