# Merge reference consolidation

## Verification Boundary

This suite exercises the scoped browser journey with service readback and the assertions present in the pinned executable.

## What This Suite Proves

The journey checks merge reference consolidation through its browser actions and API readbacks. Only the assertions in its pinned executable contribute proof; recorded diagnostics and conditional branches retain their limits.

The registered scenario bindings identify the assertion contributions this executable supplies. A compound scenario can require several suites.

## What It Does Not Prove

It does not establish a passing run here. Diagnostic observations, conditional steps and soft assertions retain their recorded limits; unrelated feature scenarios remain outside this suite.

## Real Dependencies and Test Doubles

The browser uses the deployed console, CRM, Platform authentication and any query or lifecycle services requested by the journey. API helpers create run-owned fixture records; those fixtures do not replace the deployed handlers.

## Must Not Be Doubled

The browser controls, deployed authorization, service mutations and readbacks that supply the asserted outcome remain real.
