 Card 66 landed through PR #12 and is done: production revision `metacortexmcp-00030-zaj`, profile secret version 2, nine scoped clients and admin verified. The [rollout record](docs/operations/2026-10-03-card66-rollout.md) distinguishes endpoint checks from long-running client catalog refreshes. Baseline `9c3feac` is pushed and its hosted typecheck/test/package gates passed. The earlier local-only and undeployed statements in dated records describe the state before this rollout.
