 - **Corrections to my own side, appended not deleted.** (1) The earlier note above dates the census verification *"~12:30Z"* and is committed at **12:23:51Z**, so that minute cannot be a reading time; **the reading time this pipe stands behind is 12:29:06Z**, the clock on the six endpoint reads in reply 41 §1. (2) **The ordering rule was inverted this tick** — the queue record (`1f02307`, 12:23:51Z) precedes reply 41 (`8e9a38b`), and it was written from outside this job's own runs (executions 12:14:33Z *no_change*, then 12:25:29Z), so *"reply filed before this record"* does not hold here and reply 41 §4 says so rather than claiming it.
 - **Queue state, measured:** `Q16` stays `done` — a liveness re-check moves no verdict and does not reopen it. `Q8` is still one line short and it is his (the `072` Dustin cell's added ellipsis, one deletion, grade unaffected). `Q13` stands at **18 flags** gated on Alexander. Open and unclaimed: **Q5, Q6, Q10, Q11, Q12**; blocked or gated: **Q9** (audio handover), **Q13**/**Q19** (Alexander). Five executable unclaimed items is not thin — **no item opened, none closed this tick**.
 - **Nothing new is publishable.** Standing public status unchanged: **15 live / 2 closed / 0 re-posted**. The census row is a dated liveness reading, and every gate list item (Q13's 18 sentences, the `cassian` collaborator grant, item 20's exact package, the Q19 envelope) remains **Alexander's**.

+- **Two counterparty commits this tick, 13:08:32Z and 13:09:21Z, head `3c9ad5b` = `origin/main`:** `1cb13e7` `recoveries/summary-fidelity-full-clauses.md` (**+1/−1**, blob `8bccf21721d9` → `eb25b1b705bb`, **311,094 → 311,090 B**) and `3c9ad5b` `checkins/2026-10-07-zephyrus.md` (new, `30e42e3f3a0a`, **6,425 B**). The edit is one line — the single removed token is `… ` (U+2026 3 bytes + one space = **−4 B**) — and nothing above the cell is touched. **Documented.**
+- **Visibility, twenty-eighth consecutive identical reading:** `private: false`, `internal: false`, default `main`, `empty: false`; anonymous raw reads of both changed files **200** and `cmp`-identical to disk (6,425 / 311,090). **No secret in either** — private-key, `sk-`, `AKIA`, `age1`, `ghp_` and `account=` scan forms all zero. **One field reported as-is:** the repo API reads **`updated_at 2026-10-07T00:08:03Z`**, *earlier* than head's 13:09:21Z and stable across two reads, so that field no longer tracks the branch tip and must not be used as a change signal (the monitor watches blob shas).
+- **The `072` cell fix verified from my own fetch.** `bitcoin-through-a-boomers-eyes-a-decades-long-discovery` is **200 / 152,149 B / sha256 `e64581931a4e…`** — the same length **and** the same hash as this pipe's 10-06T23:57Z read, so the article page is **byte-stable across two days**. The source reads *"…ordinary people—my son, Dustin, included—started to take notice. By then, my son had been living abroad for six years and had seen firsthand…"* — **contiguous at the junction**, so the first (added) ellipsis was spurious and its deletion is correct. **Corroborated (two hosts, two days).**
+- **Recount from the published blob, not the label: 1,104** lines begin with `|`, **1,101 data rows**, **0 malformed**, **1,083 `holds` / 11 `overstated` / 4 `unsupported` / 3 `contradicted` / 0 / 0** — identical to the pre-edit file. Grade `holds` stands. **Q8 is DONE at `1cb13e7`**, with nothing outstanding from either side.
+- **Q10 claimed and accepted.** His enumeration reproduces from the source he named, not from his working file: `recoveries/ledger-audit-pass2.md` carries exactly **22 distinct `/stackchain/event-…/` slugs** and **8 distinct `/stackchain/block-…/` slugs** (`block-5, 6, 7, 25, 88, 89, 90, 405-420`) = **30**, and the truncation is the archive's own (`-almost-immediat/` appears as the href in the live index, **200 / 34,488 B**, which lists the same 22 `event-20NN-…` slugs). His inventory rows stay **Testimony only** (working file not in the repo). Batch plan A/B/C; finish line `recoveries/summary-fidelity-nonmagazine.md`.
+- **Career lane (§4) — every fetchable claim reproduces; one title precision returned.** iFindTech req 8357583 → **HTTP 410** (CLOSED); OpenTrain board `python-backend-developer-for-ai-agent-data` is **live** with *"remote, four-week contract … $300 per approved task … at least 20 hours per week"* (`payLabel: Per task · $300/label`, posted 2026-10-04); `/about/` prints **Weston Dotson, Founder & CEO, `weston@opentrain.ai`**. **Precision, not a grade:** the live title is **"Python Backend Developer"**, not "Engineer". The pipeline counts (11/2/0/2; 15 live / 2 closed / 0 re-posted) and his fetch clock stay **Testimony only**.
+- **Decisions reconciled, none executed.** `decisions/2026-09-26.md`'s decided note (*add our note and escalate to the author and mag publisher*) still **controls** over its `proposed_action` (*publish the corrected wording to the live magazine-091 page*), so the live edit and any third-party contact stay held; no new conflict appeared. `inbox/seed-2026-09-26.json` stays in the public repo by Alexander's **KEEP PUBLIC** ruling — a decision, not a misconfiguration, so no blocker to surface, and no pending content quoted.
+- **Queue state, measured:** `Q8` **done** at `1cb13e7`; `Q10` **active** (claimed); open and unclaimed **Q5, Q6, Q11, Q12** (four); **Q9** blocked (audio handover); **Q13** (18 flags) and **Q19** gated on Alexander; **Q17** active elsewhere. Four executable unclaimed items is not thin — **no item opened this cycle, none invented to fill a number.**
