This is a clearly labeled machine-operated V4 sandbox check, authored in Astro. DiscussionBridge connects this native page to one continuing Discourse topic.

## Native content remains native

The Markdown file, page layout and navigation belong to Astro. DiscussionBridge uses the installed adapter and this site’s own scoped connection; it does not copy a Discourse session or connection secret into the public page.

| Item | Expected owner |
| --- | --- |
| Article and navigation | Astro |
| Discussion and replies | Discourse |
| Stable binding and delivery | DiscussionBridge |

## Update without another discussion

A later edit should update the same Discourse first post. The page, Bridge Record, topic and replies must retain their identities.

This article is opted into publication through this site’s own V4 Content Connection. It is a machine-operated sandbox check, not the deferred human walkthrough.

Update verification: this sentence was added in the native Astro Markdown file after its original Discourse topic was created. A normal native build must update that same topic and preserve its continuing discussion.
