Formal native tactic body

Dependencies are introduced as named hypotheses before line 1. Local theorem links identify exact declared prerequisites. The literal dependency-closed bundle is checked by original HA and the independently compiled Lean verifier. Public delivery grants no Alpha checked-use authority or Stable membership.
