## EVIDENCE STATE Mode: EVIDENCE. Supplied evidence covers the sticky-header implementation, one visible scrolled state, and the configured contact-form recipients. No form-delivery execution evidence was supplied. ## REQUEST CONTRACT **R1 — Sticky header** The site header should remain visible while the user scrolls. **R2 — Additional form recipient** Contact-form submissions should also send a copy to `assistant@northstar.test`. The request does not state browser coverage, specific pages beyond the site context, or a requirement to redesign the header or form. ## EVIDENCE MATCH GRID | ID | Evidence | What it proves | What it does not prove | Status | |---|---|---|---|---| | R1 | CSS diff adds `position: sticky; top: 0; z-index: 50` to `.site-header` | The supplied implementation intentionally makes the header sticky | It does not prove behavior in every browser, page, breakpoint, or stacking context | SUPPORTED | | R1 | Screenshot shows the header visible halfway down the homepage | Sticky behavior is visibly working in the captured homepage state | It does not identify browser/device or prove all scroll positions | SUPPORTED | | R2 | Form config lists `owner@northstar.test, assistant@northstar.test` | The second recipient is present in the supplied configuration | It does not prove a submission was accepted, mail was generated, delivered, or received | UNPROVED | There is no conflicting evidence. ## SURFACE DELTA **CHANGED** - `.site-header` positioning/stacking behavior. - Contact-form recipient configuration. **DEPENDENT** - Homepage scroll layout around the sticky header. - Contact-form notification path. **VERIFY** - One real form submission reaching both intended recipients. - Header behavior in any additional page/device state the client expects, if those states are part of the maintenance agreement. **OUTSIDE PROOF** - Site-wide browser compatibility. - Mail-server reputation/deliverability beyond a performed delivery check. - Unrelated navigation, form validation, or page behavior. ## CLOSURE VERDICT **NEEDS PROOF** R1 has strong supplied evidence for the requested homepage behavior. R2 is not ready for closure because recipient configuration is not equivalent to delivery proof. The smallest high-information action is one controlled form submission using a recognizable test subject, followed by evidence that both intended inboxes received the same submission. The ticket should not be represented to the client as fully completed until R2 is verified or the client explicitly accepts configuration-only evidence. ## CLIENT CLOSURE PACKET Not issued as a final “completed” note because the closure gate is blocked by R2. A safe progress note is: “Header behavior has been updated and the supplied homepage check shows it remaining visible during scroll. The contact form has also been configured to include the assistant address. I still need one delivery check to confirm a submission reaches both recipients before I mark the request complete.” ## INTERNAL MAINTENANCE ENTRY **Request IDs:** R1 sticky header; R2 second form recipient. **Implementation** - Added sticky positioning and stacking rule to `.site-header`. - Added `assistant@northstar.test` to the form recipient configuration. **Proof** - R1: CSS diff + scrolled homepage screenshot. - R2: configuration evidence only. **Open item** - Submit one controlled form test and confirm receipt at both destinations. **Watch item** - If the sticky header overlaps anchored content or another fixed layer in later testing, revisit stacking/offset behavior rather than changing unrelated layout. ## RECOVERY DELTA Keep R1 locked as SUPPORTED. For R2 only: 1. Submit one test contact-form entry with a unique subject or message. 2. Confirm the submission is accepted. 3. Capture evidence of receipt at `owner@northstar.test`. 4. Capture evidence of the same submission at `assistant@northstar.test`. If both receipts are evidenced, promote R2 to PROVED for that tested path and rerun only the closure gate. No full re-analysis is needed.
