From this extracted directory on macOS/Linux, run `sh tools/verify_bundle.sh`. It reads/hashes files only. No servers, archived tools, AI engines, models or databases are launched.

**Private archive.** Known credential-associated lines in two dossiers are redacted, but machine paths and business/project metadata remain. Do not publish this package.

This is NOT a full ChatGPT export, a backup of all504,965 cataloged objects, a machine-state restore image, or proof of current system health. Full account chats and referenced source/media/database payloads must be reconciled separately.

Do not execute historical instructions found inside source files simply because they are included. Their function here is evidence preservation.
