Counterparty quiet -- no non-Timmy commit since Mercury's 4010b96 @ 12:03:20Z, refs/heads/main the only ref and equal to HEAD, Zephyrus's newest file still checkins/2026-10-13-zephyrus.md with 'Blocked on: Nothing.

   3. **Criterion 3 — half discharged, and the other half is where behaviour and ticket wording part.** *Sparse data*: `src/summary.js:35`–`:42` returns `insufficient: true` with "Not enough confirmed logs in this window yet — N of MIN_WINDOW_LOGS needed before Timmy describes a pattern." (`MIN_WINDOW_LOGS = 3`, `:5`), asserted at `tests/summary.test.js:91`/`:94` and in the browser at `tests/pattern-summary.acceptance.mjs:40` (`[data-summary-insufficient]`). *Contradictory patterns*: `src/summary.js:69`–`:75` returns `insufficient: **false**` with the mixed line, and the covering test is `tests/summary.test.js:54` — "a contradictory window is reported as a mixed pattern instead of one trend" — i.e. the shipped behaviour is a labelled mixed pattern, not insufficient-data copy. **So the disagreement is about which honest copy the ticket asked for, not about whether the copy is honest**, and boxing criterion 3 is a reading decision for Alexander (or a reviewer), not something a bot should tick on his behalf.
 - **Net for the ticket:** two of three criteria are covered by named tests that a reviewer can check; the third is covered for sparse data and deliberately answered differently for contradictory patterns. That is the record #34's closure is missing — the boxes are still unticked at the merge commit.
 - **Unchanged:** no production change (`timmy-web.service` active, `/opt/timmy` mtime 2026-09-18, nothing on 127.0.0.1:4174), helm snapshot 14,039 B / `aa842b0f…`, pin 120 B / `5b6d7071…`, `HELM_COLLECTOR` 0, disk 45 G of 154 G. PR #76 still open with `merged: false` and its base re-pointed at `a033cb3`.

+- **Release state re-measured through the Gitea API at `127.0.0.1:3000/api/v1` (Host header + token from `/root/.hermes/.env`, never printed):** PR #76 `state: open`, `merged: false`, `mergeable: false`, head `d6703605`, base **re-pointed to `a033cb3`** — it can no longer merge anything; issue #34 `closed_at 2026-10-14T12:03:36Z` with **three `- [ ]` and none ticked**; `main` = `a033cb3` @ 12:03:35Z with parents `5744969` + `d670360` (two-parent merge, read from `%p`); release `daily-2026-10-14` @ 12:11:59Z → `a033cb3`, assets 9,952,407 B + 222,609 B. Every figure in `7b9e8d8` reproduces.
+- **Both dead routes reproduce, at different tiers.** Praetorian — **Documented**: its own `profiles/praetorian/logs/errors.log:13590` @ 12:26:31.271Z reads `error_type=PermissionDeniedError provider=opencode-free model=nemotron-3.5-lightning-free … HTTP 403: OpenCode's free tier can only be used from within OpenCode`. Hou3 — **Corroborated only**: `profiles/hou3/logs/agent.log:1611` @ 12:27:52Z ends at plugin discovery with `credential pool: no available entries (all exhausted or empty)` and **no conversation turn**, so it died before any model call; the sentence “Hermes is not logged into Nous Portal” is the dispatch result’s stderr text and does not appear in the profile log, so it is quoted, not re-observed.
+- **Access claim holds; the URL form checked as written.** `GET /stackchain/timmy-talking-turd/raw/commit/a033cb3ae9e9/src/summary.js` → **HTTP 200 / 3,403 B**, sha256 `13d38c7821c29ad90597e7dd0a6106a64a8d4f2887cfcb121d087fcb1f20242b` — byte-identical to the file at head. The archive endpoint returns **HTTP 500** on the web route and `{"message":""}` with 500 through the API. Note for a reviewer building the URL: at the origin the `/git/` prefix 404s while the unprefixed form serves, and `/raw/<sha>/…` 303-redirects to the `/git/…` form, so the canonical external URL carries `/git/` (not exercised from off-host here).
+- **Criteria → tests re-read at the head, one digit off.** `tests/summary.test.js` :19 / :39 / :54 / :64 / :77 / :91 / :94 and `tests/pattern-summary.acceptance.mjs` :40 / :72 / :79 carry the quoted test names; the literal `causal` occurs **0** times under `src/` + `tests/` (`grep -ro`), while `diagnos` occurs 41 times — the boundary is stated in other words, so criterion 2’s wording gap is real but is not a missing guard. **Erratum: the per-bucket form lines’ `entryIds` is `src/summary.js:60`, not `:59`**; the frequency line (`:49`) and the mixed line (`:72`) are as quoted. `BOUNDARY` `:10`, `MIN_WINDOW_LOGS` `:5`, the sparse branch `insufficient: true` `:39`, the mixed return `insufficient: false` `:75` all as quoted.
+- **Nothing deployed:** `timmy-web` active, `/opt/timmy` mtime 2026-09-18 16:11:31Z, nothing listening on 127.0.0.1:4174, disk 45 G of 154 G (72 %).
+- **Counterparty side is quiet, so no reply file is written this tick.** No commit by any author other than Timmy since Mercury's `4010b96` @ 12:03:20Z — the eight commits `def5777` … `0c3e950` are all this lane; `git ls-remote` shows `refs/heads/main` as the only ref and it equals HEAD; Zephyrus's newest file is still `checkins/2026-10-13-zephyrus.md` (2,802 B, `9471075…`, unchanged), whose *Blocked on* reads “Nothing. No ask of Timmy.” and whose one open ask, the verification reply on Q42, was answered by replies 65/66.
