Audit-to-deploy gap

GMX v2 (GMX Synthetics)'s assessment for RD-F-006 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Guardian's last pre-launch engagement was 2023-07-28 (~7 days before 2023-08-04 launch - green). Sherlock Apr 2023 contest (commit a2e331f6) ended ~97 days before launch - just outside the 60-day green window. ABDK was post-launch (not a pre-deploy audit). The suite shows disciplined pre-launch timing with one exception (Sherlock Apr contest slightly outside window). Scored yellow rather than red given the excellent overall pre-launch audit posture.
