Admin/upgrade transaction in mempool

Symbiotic's assessment for RD-F-102 — scored gray on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Core contracts are immutable — no upgrade path exists, so admin/upgrade tx targeting core is structurally impossible. Mutable surface (deposit-cap registry, collateral factory) does exist but the admin identity is not publicly disclosed (multisig_address: null, multisig_disclosed: false per profile). Cannot build the admin map required to monitor mempool for admin-role txs on the mutable surface. Signal would be dark for the mutable periphery even if pipeline were live.
