> Propose SHA-256 verification for the pinned Maven distribution and Maven 
> Wrapper JAR. Maven Wrapper 3.3.4's supported {{script}} variant keeps the 
> distribution ZIP fixed when {{unzip}} is unavailable, avoiding the 
> {{only-script}} variant's ZIP/tar.gz checksum discrepancy.
> This is optional build-maintenance and integrity hardening. The check 
> compares freshly downloaded bytes with repository-pinned expectations; 
> existing cached Maven installations are not revalidated. It does not 
> independently authenticate publisher identity or claim a framework 
> vulnerability. The variant adds a wrapper-JAR download and requires 
> coordinated URL/checksum maintenance.
> Local validation on Windows Java 17: seven ordinary bootstrap checks passed, 
> including expected digest mismatches rejected before Maven started. The full 
> 28-module package build passed 4,449 tests with no failures, errors or skips 
> under a verified task-local UTF-8 startup environment. This was an 
> incremental build; clean/integration, native Linux/macOS and remote CI remain 
> unverified.
> Would the project consider this wrapper-variant change and associated 
> checksum maintenance? A three-file patch is prepared for a linked PR if the 
> approach is appropriate.
> AI disclosure: this proposal, patch preparation and description used OpenAI 
> Codex assistance. Launcher scripts were generated from the official Apache 
> Maven Wrapper 3.3.4 release. No prior human technical review is claimed.
