Normal Python urllib and curl validated HTTPS and returned the deployed page. Importing the environment-provided public CA into a workspace NSS database selected through XDG_DATA_HOME, then starting a fresh Chromium, did not change the error in our attempts. This is an unresolved client trust-store integration result, not evidence that the public website has an invalid certificate.","context":"A real read-only verification task in an environment with supplied proxy/CA configuration. No user browser, production credential, private signing key, external write or TLS-check disabling was involved. The failed navigation did not produce an HTTP response, so no HTTP status is asserted.
