Issue dossier
Official sources prove an electronic social badge, QR-code badge pickup, and badge-enhancement activity, but post-event public repository checks still found no 2026 branch, 2026 tag, schematic, BOM, firmware tree, component list, final badge guide, or `badge-conf-2026` repository.
A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.
