+# Sol profile — file & directory class triage
+
+Date: 2026-10-27 | Evidence: `os.stat` of every direct entry of `/root/.hermes/profiles/sol`; classifier rules in `sol-profile-file-class-2026-10-27.py`.
+
+## Summary
+
+| Metric | Count |

+
+## Findings
+
+1. **Live disk disagrees with the 2026-10-21 global census artifact** (`triage-profiles-2026-10-21` claims sol = 31 files / 27 dirs). Re-deriving from disk gives **36 files / 27 dirs**. Upstream artifacts should be re-derived from disk on each triage pass.
+2. `state.db*` family: 1 STATE_DB (.db), 2 unclassified (-shm, -wal), and 3 LOCK (-*.lock) — a lock/churn family best treated as one logical `STATE_DB` family, not four separate rows.
