 - **Two findings live in the ledger lane's files and are returned, not touched.** `verify_dates.py` cannot fail (§ above). `bash wizard-work/ledger/verify_wizards.sh` → **rc 1** for three separate reasons: `latest` stale by two commits and **structurally** so (a point-in-time artifact re-derived against live git is red in every later commit); `verify_wizards.py:100`'s chained `earliest == json['earliest'] == csv_rows[0]['date']` compares a date-sorted minimum to a **churn-sorted** rank 1, so it can never hold and its message prints two of the three operands — reply 16's two identifiers, now visible from the gate side; and `:122` raises `IndexError` before `sys.exit(1)`, so rc 1 is a traceback. Owner: ledger; ask `replies/2026-10-25-to-ledger-17.md`.
 - **Still not a leg, still nobody's call but the operator's.** This is the fourth reopening in two days that nothing outside this lane's own `CHECK` would have noticed (reply 93 §4). 24 `FAIL` and 54 `PASS*` rows are unchanged per-lane populations.
 - **Evidence:** `wizard-work/volt/q65-2026-10-25-c4.md` (§1 red, §2 classification + reachability, §3 grading, §4 the two-direction control, §5 the DRIFT clearing, §6 the 86-vs-88 reconciliation, §7 green, §8 open); `q65-2026-10-25-c4-{red,green,controls,counts,overlap,emit}.txt` and `-census.diff`, provenance line in each; `git diff --numstat` `4 1` and `3 2` on the two ledgers. No verifier was edited by this lane and no other lane's file was touched. Nothing from `inbox/` is quoted. Appended at the foot; `docs/queue-index.md` re-rendered in this commit.

+**Tick record, 2026-10-25 (career + bookkeeping, timmy, at `a8df683`) — Zeph's career tick graded against my own fetches; one lead withdrawn as removed at source, one identifier recovered in full, and the reply-number fault class closed by volt a day before the tick that carried it as open.**

+- **Closed item: the reply-number DUPLICATE_NUMBER class.** Done was defined as `tools/reply_check.py` reporting no duplicate-number fault at the head. `7d18269` (volt, `Sat Oct 24 13:55:57 2026 +0000`) renumbers `replies/2026-10-15-to-merlin-58.md` → `…-67.md` and `replies/2026-10-24-to-mercury-11.md` → `…-12.md`; measured in a clean clone of `a8df683`: **`faults: 0   advisories: 112`**, rc 0, no `DUPLICATE_NUMBER` block, and `git ls-tree -r --name-only origin/main replies/ | grep -oE 'to-[a-z]+-[0-9]+' | sort | uniq -d` empty. Residue is a **hole**, not a duplicate: `series: 16 recipient(s), 350 numbered file(s), 1 hole(s): timmy [58, 59]` — `5d00265` removed `to-timmy-58` and no `to-timmy-59` ever shipped; nothing is manufactured to close it. **My own error logged, first, in reply 99 §0:** reply 87 §5 told Zeph "renumber to 59 (merlin's next free)" when `replies/2026-10-15-to-merlin-59.md` already existed (`git ls-tree -r --name-only 5d00265 replies/ | grep -c merlin-59` → 1), so my instruction would have made a second duplicate. Finished by `7d18269`; reply `4ebdeb7`.
+- **Zeph's career tick (`ba32ba6`, `2a25e8f`, `a8df683`): item 27 (Gramian, $300/approved task) withdrawn by me as REMOVED AT SOURCE, not "possible, freshness unverified".** His only source carries the notice above the title: `https://builtin.com/job/python-backend-engineer-ai-agents-saas-integrations/10501641` → **200 / 73,070 B**, *"Sorry, this job was removed at 10:06 a.m. (UTC) on Thursday, Aug 13, 2026"*. The terms he quotes reproduce inside it (*"Payment is $300 per approved task"*, 2–3 weeks, min 1 approved task/day, Claude Code essential) — so nothing he graded is wrong, only the disposition; he dated the row from the posting date below the removal line. Never a canonical door, so the aggregate does not move (**13 live / 4 closed / 0 re-posted**). Not routed to Alexander as a decision.
+- **Item 26 (Mercor talent network, $70–150/hr) — Documented and the only new decision this tick.** `work.mercor.com` job page **200 / 53,626 B**: *"…Full Stack (TypeScript, React, AWS) is no longer accepting applications"*, *"This talent network covers the same expertise and is open"*, *"a standing listing … not a specific job opening"*, *"Software engineering listings on Mercor have posted at $70 to $150 an hour, set per project"*, badge `$70-$150 / hr · Part-time · Remote`, and a `I don't have a LinkedIn` form option. One precision for the row: the band is stated about past listings, not promised per project.
+- **Terac $39 closure — verdict unchanged, explanation corrected.** `terac.com/opportunities/EW5rvZqnDf0sO6qQ` → **200 / 213,617 B**, and the script-stripped text contains *twice*: *"This listing has closed, but Terac posts new paid opportunities regularly."* So the archive's "the notice lives in a rendered side panel that text extraction does not surface" is wrong as stated: it is his and the scout's extractors that drop the panel. Three instruments still agree on CLOSED (his render, my `0ba6be9` host read, this fetch); item 12 stays moot.
+- **Ashby Ramp row — the truncated identifier is recoverable and now recovered.** `git grep '34413f8d' a8df683` → 2 files, both `career-lane/daily-*`, both `34413f8d-…`. Full value: **`34413f8d-26bf-4bbc-8ade-eb309a0e2245`**, Ramp *Security Engineer, Cloud*, New York HQ, published 2026-04-07T17:12:35Z, from `https://api.ashbyhq.com/posting-api/job-board/ramp` (**200 / 2,836,992 B, 167 jobs**; five other Ramp security postings there, so the probe role is unambiguous). Under his own Q60 boundary this is a failing row: subject is an identifier, written incompletely. His "new this fetch" code-sample question stays **Testimony only** — the static `/application` page (200 / 44,352 B) carries no question list, and the client-side form type `FormRender → sections: [FormSectionRender]` rejects `fields`/`formFields`/`inputFields`/`questions` while introspection returns *"Unidentified server error"*, so it is unrecovered on my instrument, neither confirmed nor denied.
+- **Carried on his testimony, labelled, not promoted:** micro1 items 13 and 24 return **200 at the same byte sizes as my 10-24 read (42,473 / 41,581 B)** but text extraction surfaces the title only, so liveness is not re-confirmed from text this tick; the 33-URL sweep, the 13/4 aggregate's row-by-row audit, the ATS rows other than Ashby and the scout tables are not re-measured by me.
+- **Mercury's `2026-10-25` check-in reproduced, with one datapoint added.** `alexanderwhitestone.com/stackchain/blocks/` → **121 `<li id=`**, badge classes **1 corroborated / 115 documented / 5 testimony_only / 0 unrecovered**, matching its counts exactly. Its R5-b **0 B over 60 s** window is a quiet minute, not a quiet database: at 12:45:38Z `state.db` was **4,504,047,616 B** against the **4,501,381,120 B** pre-window read, **+2,666,496 B in 44 min**, `state.db-wal` still 67,108,864 B — its own "Next" (re-run at another time of day) is the right follow-up and the burst lands between windows.
+- **Nothing closed and nothing opened in the lanes; no lane's file was edited by this tick.** beam's 218-byte heredoc path is still tracked at `a8df683` and stays open against reply 25 — not re-raised here.
+- **Evidence:** `replies/2026-10-25-to-zephyrus-99.md` (commands, sizes, tiers, and my own error first); the four fetches above; `tools/reply_check.py` at `a8df683`; `tools/verify.py --repo .` → **8 legs, 8 pass** at `4ebdeb7`. Nothing from `inbox/` is quoted; no secret is reproduced (the Ashby key cited there is the public board key from the page's own config, truncated). Appended at the foot; `docs/queue-index.md` re-rendered in this commit.
