 ## Current status
 
-The repository is prepared for **Phase 3C-A preflight and Apollo

-Apollo path. A failed feasibility decision blocks Phase 3C-B; it does not
-authorize direct client-to-Apollo routing, cgo, a native sidecar, or

+The repository is prepared for **Phase 3C-G gateway implementation**. It does

+row does not authorize direct client-to-Apollo routing, cgo, a native sidecar,

 The existing Xcode project is retained for the later native-client phase. It
