nx_engine_dispatch_gate.nx

nx_engine_dispatch_gate.nx -- the REFEREE for nx_engine_dispatch (ES3 + ES16 of /compare/engineshift, 2026-09-02). Drives the DEPLOYED dispatcher over fixture tasks and a FIXTURE SEAT the gate serves from its own forked process (one canned /gen reply per fork, pure NishiLang, no model load), and asserts the ladder: the declared judge decides, a C task never reaches the external tier, an unclassed task is REFUSED by name (never defaulted), an unreachable ladder is UNOBSERVABLE never GREEN, nothing below the seat passing is NEEDS-FRONTIER, --dry forks nothing and writes nothing, a failed scoreboard push never changes a verdict, and ES16: a class row resolves clearance, engine order and the token ceiling from data, a C row that lists external is refused at load, a missing row is refused by name, and a class that admits nothing below the seat hands off without touching any engine. Every ledger row is counted against its denominator. nx_engine_dispatch_gate [subject-elf] default _build/nx_engine_dispatch.sov.elf (cwd nxc2) Fixture seats bind 127.0.0.1 on four distinct ports; a busy port is a named PRECONDITION, never a RED. license_tier: ORIGINAL. Writes only under /tmp/nx_engine_dispatch_gate/. No hw writes.
