+# MBTI Main FAQ D7 Observation Blocked Report
+
+Date prepared: 2026-07-06
+
+## Status
+
+`BLOCKED_BY_DATE_WINDOW`
+
+## Reason
+
+The D7 window for MBTI FAQ observation begins on 2026-07-12. The current date is 2026-07-06.
+
+## Metrics Deferred
+
+The following metrics are intentionally not collected in this PR:
+
+- GSC page/query CTR
+- GSC impressions
+- GSC average position
+- GA organic sessions
+- article-to-test movement
+- start-test movement
+- FAQ visible count
+- FAQPage JSON-LD count
+
+## Valid Future Run
+
+Run `MBTI-MAIN-FAQ-D7-OBSERVATION-01` again on or after 2026-07-12 with read-only evidence only.
+
+Do not trigger deployment, production import, CMS writes, sitemap/`llms` edits, Search Console submission, or title/meta/FAQ changes from the observation PR.

+# MBTI Main FAQ D7 Observation Decision
+
+Date prepared: 2026-07-06
+
+Observation window: 2026-07-12 or later
+
+PR/task: `MBTI-MAIN-FAQ-D7-OBSERVATION-01`
+
+Final verdict: `BLOCKED_BY_DATE_WINDOW`
+
+## Decision
+
+Do not run MBTI FAQ D7 observation on 2026-07-06.
+
+The D7 observation window has not arrived. Running the readback now would mix D0/D1 noise with a D7 label and would violate the train rule that observation windows must be respected.
+
+## Required Window
+
+Earliest valid run date: 2026-07-12
+
+## Train Action
+
+Record the date-window block, append sidecar issue, merge this generated-only blocked report if checks pass, and continue to D28 observation handling.
+
+## Explicit Non-Actions
+
+This PR does not:
+
+- query GSC
+- query GA
+- read production analytics credentials
+- submit URLs
+- update Search Channel
+- update CMS
+- modify FAQ, JSON-LD, metadata, sitemap, `llms`, canonical, or noindex
+- verify deployment
+- trigger deployment
