Outcome

Run the fixed exact-candidate Ollama Cloud deepseek-v4-flash:0731 Chat regression batch for RC1, including the complete Beta6 Collaboration V2 lifecycle.

Acceptance criteria

• The frozen Beta7 candidate and exact versioned CLI-only profile are used without product-code changes.
• Progressive text, standard function tools, read/apply_patch/verify, and the complete Chat Collaboration V2 lifecycle run against the exact maintained route.
• Outcomes are immutable and distinguish pass, failure, degraded behavior, and transient availability.
• Exact route/model/protocol identity, evidence hashes, cleanup state, and bounded diagnostics are recorded.
• No Responses/Official fallback, model fallback, cross-Provider execution, selective rerun replacement, or model-specific production branch appears.
