Dispatch for challenger_gate_2

Mission

Empirically stress-test the standalone Windows executable (dist/HAD Digital.exe), security boundaries, and runtime resilience of the HAD Digital MVP skeleton.

Scope & Instructions

• Read c:\AI Projects\Kais Project\ORIGINAL_REQUEST.md (mandatory).

• Empirically verify:
1. Standalone packaging integrity: Verify dist/HAD Digital.exe launches and serves cleanly on an isolated ephemeral port with zero environment variables or working directory assumptions.
1. Security boundaries: Test path traversal attacks (/static/../../MVP/app.py), script injection in notes/symptoms, HTTP header hardening (CSP, nosniff, DENY).
1. Brute force defense: Execute 5 consecutive invalid logins and confirm 30-minute lockout is enforced on subsequent attempts.
1. Concurrent request resilience: Fire 20+ concurrent HTTP requests against dist/HAD Digital.exe to verify ThreadingHTTPServer and SQLite WAL thread safety without database locks.
1. Port conflict and dynamic binding resilience: Test startup behavior when default ports are occupied.

Output Requirement

Write your report to c:\AI Projects\Kais Project\.agents\challenger_gate_2\handoff.md. Conclude with a clear verdict: APPROVE or REJECT (with failure logs). Send a completion message back when done.
