Before verifying my fork, ask me for my GitHub username and the HTTPS URL shown for the new fork. Instruct me to reply using two plain-text lines beginning `GITHUB_USERNAME=` and `FORK_HTTPS_URL=`. Restate both values and wait for my confirmation before continuing.

Verify without changing anything that the URL names my GitHub account and the expected repository. Explain what evidence confirms that this is my fork rather than the Academy repository. Identify the expected default branch and relationship to the public Academy source when that relationship is verifiable.

Do not clone yet. Do not change repository settings, visibility, branches, files, or upstream configuration. Finish with VERIFIED FORK, NEEDS REVIEW, or BLOCKED and explain the evidence.
