+**STATUS: All 3 tasks complete. Task 3's live verification was run against `https://pulse.wulfconsulting.cloud` (production, rebuilt+redeployed from this plan's merged commits): ticket 627088 was analyzed twice — first call created campaign `5121930f-...` (`created:true`), second identical call returned the SAME campaignId with `created:false`. Direct DB query confirmed exactly one `campaigns` row for that `campaign_key` with `report_count` unchanged at 1. Test data (report, 2 messages, indicators, the campaign) was cleaned up afterward. Human approved.**

 ## Next Phase Readiness
 
-**NOT READY — Task 3 (blocking human-verify checkpoint) has not run.** Per the plan's `coverage_caveat`: mocked-only unit coverage was proven insufficient last time (the 18-04 mocked regression test passed while CR-03 shipped and reproduced live in production), so this gap-closure plan is explicitly not considered closed until a human confirms, against a real database:
+**READY.** Task 3's live verification ran against production after merge + rebuild + redeploy:
 
-1. A second consecutive `/analyze` on the same single-report ticket returns the same `campaignId` with `created:false` (not a new campaign, not `created:true`).
-2. A direct DB query shows exactly one `campaigns` row for that `campaign_key` with an unchanged `report_count`.
-3. Any test data created during verification is cleaned up.
+1. `POST /api/phishing/tickets/627088/analyze` → `{reportId, campaignId: "5121930f-272a-4ea8-971a-7bccf187e1bb", groupMethod:"message_id", created:true}`
+2. Immediate identical repeat call → same `campaignId`, `created:false` (no duplicate campaign).
+3. `SELECT * FROM campaigns WHERE campaign_key = ...` returned exactly one row, `report_count:1` (unchanged).
+4. Test data cleaned up (report, 2 messages, 12 indicators, 1 campaign) — production DB restored to pre-test state for ticket 627088.
 
-This worktree's code (commits `633b48c` and `6945591`) is ready for that live verification. No further code changes are anticipated unless the live verification surfaces a divergence from the mocked tests' assumptions.
+CR-03 and CR-02 are confirmed closed both by mocked regression tests and live production verification. Phase 18 is ready for final re-verification.
