`[2026-06-18]` **#17 live-smoke PROVEN — the whole thesis validated.** A self-driven bound CLI session showed, from the PROVIDER side, exactly which memory ops a turn produced (2 recall searches, exact bound session_id, real union-recall scopes). Negative (canary→auth_rejected) NOT live-constructible (Tier-1 agents aren't memory-bindable; a wrong key for an owner-scoped agent fails at agent-auth before the handshake) — covered by the unit test + prior hand-proof.
