contents We study the GIT compactification $\mathbb{P}(\mathrm{Sym}^3\mathbb{C}^7)//\mathrm{SL}(7)$ of the moduli space of cubic fivefolds $X\subset\mathbb{P}^6$ and give an explicit description of its strictly semistable boundary. We construct closed-orbit normal forms and show that the strictly semistable locus has exactly $21$ irreducible components. For a general polystable member in each component we determine $\mathrm{Sing}(X)$: besides finitely many isolated points, the singular locus may contain a one-dimensional component which is a line, a smooth conic, a $(2,2)$ complete-intersection curve, or an elliptic quartic. The isolated boundary singularities are quasi-homogeneous and fall into precisely six analytic types; we single them out as extremal cubic fivefold singularities. Using Park's framework relating minimal exponents to hypersurface GIT stability, we prove that each boundary component is characterized by the critical value $α=(n+1)/d=7/3$ for $(n,d)=(6,3)$, both locally for the isolated extremal types and globally for a general member of the component. Finally, via Kirwan's stratification we compute the codimension-one wall-adjacency relation among the $21$ components, obtaining an explicit graph with $21$ vertices and $56$ edges (in particular, with no isolated vertices).

We study the GIT compactification $\mathbb{P}(\mathrm{Sym}^3\mathbb{C}^7)//\mathrm{SL}(7)$ of the moduli space of cubic fivefolds $X\subset\mathbb{P}^6$ and give an explicit description of its strictly semistable boundary. We construct closed-orbit normal forms and show that the strictly semistable locus has exactly $21$ irreducible components. For a general polystable member in each component we determine $\mathrm{Sing}(X)$: besides finitely many isolated points, the singular locus may contain a one-dimensional component which is a line, a smooth conic, a $(2,2)$ complete-intersection curve, or an elliptic quartic.
