Terminate paths read the environment, not your patch, so the same build can die in one setup and live in another. Adds the common probes (ptrace/TracerPid, replaced parent, SIGSTOP/SIGTRAP, instrumentation artifacts, non-standard environment), the two consequences that invalidate experiments (a pass under translation is not a pass on hardware; your own tooling can be what trips the check), and the rule to run the unmodified original through identical conditions first.
references/native-tamper-and-suicide.md - how a hardened library terminates its own process: the mechanisms and their signatures, how to tell which one actually fires, arranged faults that call nothing (defeating every PLT-level fix), resolving a stub to its symbol, forged section headers, function boundaries from PT_GNU_EH_FRAME, scanner traps, and neutralising by returning rather than spinning.
references/toolchain.md - what to install, non-interactive invocation, GUI-only tools (ask for a human instead of silently substituting a weaker method), version-alignment traps, and working offline.
scripts/elf_plt.py - PLT stub to imported symbol on x86_64 and aarch64 from the relocation table; caller listing; library byte-diff naming each changed stub's symbol. scripts/apk_diff.py - entry-level diff by content hash, so same-size replacements are caught. scripts/native_crash.py - locate a native death from a log or tombstone and flag an arranged fault.
pitfalls P31-P36; SKILL.md gains a decision question, a hard constraint on neutralising terminate paths, and cross-references from packers/native-and-so.
