The ArcForges.Client user-SID ownership repair and three ownership tests already exist. Record their current source and retained Windows Client.Tests 102/102 evidence separately from the unproven real non-elevated-node/elevated-client combination. AR-21 now gives the user-performed isolated test-mode procedure, distinguishes pipe ownership from the node's fail-closed peer resolution, and links AF-NODE-01 without changing its delivered state. The owner's final end-to-end deferral is retained; no elevation is performed. DesktopPlatform MR-12 and AR-02 remain separate.

Final pushed head 72fc6f5 (tree cf2c2b19db7842120389c5389f0b046048a3bc79, base cdcd2ce) passed native Windows full 4 steps/4s and Linux full 4 steps/26s. Both complete summaries/all results use Design c36bf89, freshly confirmed still main. Exact-head required success statuses and owner-skipped hosted check read. Author validation/whitespace check passed; ledger appended with plan.py. Direct separate self-review comment 6400158217 per owner's no-delegation instruction; no independent reviewer claimed.

Direct separate self-review at final head 72fc6f5 (tree cf2c2b19db7842120389c5389f0b046048a3bc79, base cdcd2ce). Read the complete four-file change and current ownership tests/NodeConnector/NodeClient plus retained exact-head Client.Tests 102/102 log. Ownership equality tests and same-token live pipe tests are correctly distinguished from the unproven two-integrity-level node/client case. AR-21 records the owner's existing deferral, isolated test-mode-only procedure, fail-closed peer-identification expectation, and a review requirement if the OS permits resolution; no elevation or real credential-store run is claimed. The register table is continuous after the formatting correction; graph state stays delivered and references AR-21. Ledger generated by plan.py. No blocking finding. Author validation and whitespace check passed; exact-head both-host verification and still-current Design comparison required before merge. Self-reviewed by OpenAI Codex alone per owner instruction, no independent review claimed.
