+### Rubric provenance: which rubric you read, and where it came from
+
+The four rubric fields are not bookkeeping. `record-readiness.mjs` proves them with git and refuses
+the receipt when they do not hold, so a review bound to the wrong or a stale rubric cannot reach
+READY. Fill them from the snapshot you were given:
+
+| Field | What it must be |
+|---|---|
+| `rubricRepositoryKey` | the repository the snapshot was materialized FROM |
+| `rubricCommitOid` | the commit it was materialized from, full 40 characters |
+| `rubricBlobOid` | `git rev-parse <rubricCommitOid>:.claude/skills/pr-review/rubric.md` |
+| `rubricArtifactPath` | the absolute path of the materialized snapshot you actually read |
+
+Two bindings, decided by the repository under review, not by you:
+
+- **The repository carries the rubric at the pull request's base** (orbit-ui-mobile, orbit-api).
+  `rubricRepositoryKey` is that repository and `rubricCommitOid` is the pull request's own base SHA.
+- **The repository carries no rubric** (orbit-landing-page has no `.claude` tree at any commit).
+  `rubricRepositoryKey` is `ui` and `rubricCommitOid` is orbit-ui-mobile's current `origin/main`.
+  Binding a landing review to its own base was impossible, and it is why four landing pull requests
+  reported `REVIEW_STALE` on 2026-08-08 while being complete on every other dimension.
+
+The snapshot is compared against the committed blob byte for byte, with line endings normalized. A
+hand-edited snapshot fails, a wrong blob fails, and a stale rubric fails. Do not invent these
+values: if you were not given a snapshot and its provenance, say so and stop.
+
 `severity` is descriptive and comes from the rubric's ladder. A candidate below the target
 repository floor never enters this array. `blocking` is the decision for a surviving candidate:
 a High that does not break behaviour, security, or data integrity is `"blocking": false` and
