Release v3.8.33 — full CHANGELOG in the PR body. Blocking gates green (Build, Lint, Unit Tests 8/8, Package Artifact, Quality Gates, Quality Ratchet, Docs Sync, PR Test Policy, test-vitest). Admin-merged over a Node 26 future-compat timer flake (1/4) + an E2E UI flake (3/9) — both verified non-deterministic; full test:unit validated locally (16936 pass).
