Exit

CA application resolved: approved (live on marketplace) · clarification requested · or rejected with cooldown. Audit log entry written.

Escapes

• Pricing policy violation: routes to ca-portal-pricing correction request; CA returns via clarification path.
• Suspected fraud (risk signals high): admin can escalate; reject + add note to internal block list.
• CA does not respond to clarification: application expires; CA must reapply.
