## Status Labels
| Label | Meaning |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `pass` | The gate ran and met the expected local/static requirement. |
| `fail` | The gate ran and did not meet the expected requirement. |
| `blocked` | The gate should run but needs credentials, owner input, or access unavailable in this shell. |
| `skipped` | The gate was intentionally not run because prerequisites made it inapplicable. |
| `unavailable` | Evidence source is not available in this shell. |
| `no-claim` | Evidence is local, static, prior, documentation-only, or no-network and cannot support a hosted, legal, certification, analytics, storage, or erasure claim. |
| `prior evidence` | Evidence comes from a prior completed Phase 16 session and remains claim-scoped to that session. |
