 ## Bottom Line
 
 The Red Bear desktop stack has crossed major build-side gates and one important bounded runtime gate:
-- All Qt6 core modules, all 32 KF6 recipes, Mesa EGL/GBM/GLES2, and D-Bus build — **but only 9 KF6 frameworks reach the built image** (config gap: 22 additional recipes exist with real builds but are not enabled)
+- All Qt6 core modules, all 32 KF6 recipes, Mesa EGL/GBM/GLES2, and D-Bus build — 36 KDE packages enabled in config (13 in repo with .pkgar, 23 stage-only)
 - Three supported compile targets exist, with desktop/graphics on `redbear-full`
 - the Red Bear-native greeter/login path now has a bounded passing QEMU proof (`GREETER_HELLO=ok`, `GREETER_INVALID=ok`, `GREETER_VALID=ok`) — but the greeter service is currently **disabled** in config (runs `/usr/bin/true` instead of `redbear-greeterd`)

 - Critical blockers for Phase 4: KWin remains stub (needs Qt6::Sensors + libinput); kirigami QML-gated; 12 packages blocked total (see canonical status table above)
 
 The remaining work is **platform prerequisite resolution** (QML JIT, Qt6::Sensors, libinput ports) before full KDE Plasma session can be assembled. Phase 1-2 runtime validation continues via QEMU.
-Phase 1 (Runtime Substrate Validation) has comprehensive test coverage; the remaining gate is live-environment runtime validation. The key boundary for Phase 2 is: no compositor session proof exists. The key boundary for Phase 3-4 is: KWin must become real (currently stub) + 22 KF6 recipes must be enabled in config + plasma packages need unblocking.
