+
+## PRs Merged
+
+None.
+
+## Merge Order
+
+No merges were performed. The dependency-order merge gate stops at PR #219 because it is still draft, mergeable=false, and has no recorded review approval.
+

+
+## Branch Validation
+
+PASS
+
+The repository was returned to `main`, pulled from `origin/main`, and verified clean/synced before this report branch was created.
+
+## Repository Status
+
+PASS
+
+Main branch baseline before the report branch:
+
+- Branch: `main`
+- Worktree: clean
+- Local/origin sync: `0 0`
+- Main commit: `c2a7b0fdbf16f2a8275c70bf92336a3dc928106f`
+
+## Validation Summary
+
+- PASS: EOD project instruction review.
+- PASS: GitHub PR state reviewed.
+- PASS: PR #219 review status checked; no reviews recorded.
+- PASS: Report presence check for PRs #219-#228.
+- PASS: ZIP presence check for PRs #219-#228.
+- PASS: No runtime files changed by this EOD report.
+- PASS: No UI files changed by this EOD report.
+- PASS: No API files changed by this EOD report.
+- PASS: No database files changed by this EOD report.
+- PASS: No `start_of_day` files changed.
+
+## Manual Validation Summary
+
+Manual closeout confirmed that Team Charlie should not merge the Sprites stack until PR #219 is ready, mergeable, and approved. Later Sprites PRs remain dependent on the earlier stack order and should not be merged out of order.
+
+## Outstanding Backlog
+
+Sprites:
+
+- Interactive canvas/grid editor
+- Width/height controls
+- Palette/Colors integration (reference only)
+- Pixel painting
+- Save/load sprite pixel data
+- Preview polish
+- Animation support (future)
+
+## EOD Result
+
+PASS with blocked merges.
+
+The repository closeout is operationally clean. Charlie implementation merges remain pending because the first Sprites PR in dependency order is not merge-ready.
