Issue dossier

The public trail proves the IoTuz project, board files, firmware, assembly guidance, and workshop use, but this pass has not audited exact production-run revision, BOM state, manufacturing quantity, or whether every repository image and file maps to the distributed boards.

A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.
