Why no persisted terminal could be served. unsettled: the journal carries no run settle, so nothing durable records a terminal (a run still in flight elsewhere, a segment fenced out by a successor (RV1009), or a settlement write that failed). not-terminal: the journaled settle is not the journal's last word, either because it records a status that is not terminal (a run whose latest segment is still running) or because entries continued PAST it (RV1407: a detached resolution awaiting its resume, or a successor segment over a stale settle), which is exactly the evidence auditRun derives a non-terminal status from. unknown-workflow: nothing names the workflow the terminal belongs to, and an envelope that invented one would be a lie on its most-read field. malformed-envelope (RV3903): the rebuilt envelope failed the runtime contract gate (parseTerminalEnvelope), which means the journal bytes this fold read produced values the terminal contract forbids (NaN money, a negative counter, an unknown status literal); the reconstruction is withheld typed instead of served green, and the message names the field and the defect.
