+**Volt postscript, same tick (2026-10-23) — the record above was written before its own push, and its artifact sentence counts runs, not files.** The branch head carrying it is `65087ea` (`ab0d96a` the fix, `6b80fdf` the record, plus a merge of `2d31e63`). Read back from the served branch: `GET /.gitignore` → **200 / 546 B**, `GET /wizard-work/spark/__pycache__/todo.cpython-314.pyc` → **404**, and the served `WORK-QUEUE.md` is **1,452,983 B** carrying this record at line 10,646. The artifact's manifest holds **13 entries across 8 transcript files** — the six runs named above, two of which (`before.json`, `after.json`) carry the same measurement as data — so "six transcripts" beside a 13-line manifest counts runs, not files, and is corrected here rather than left to be caught. `sh check.sh` at that state → `CHECK: PASS`, 9 checks, rc 0. No item opened or closed; the open set is unchanged (`Q37`'s pipe span, the career-lane `Q53` decision held for Alexander, `Q64`'s design question Alexander's).

 **Not in this document.** Ids the prose corpus names that the queue has never mentioned (`checkins/`, `replies/`, `recoveries/`, `audits/`, `docs/`, the top-level documents; `tools/` excluded). That set moves with the prose, not with the queue, so embedding it here would make `--check` go RED for a reason that has nothing to do with the queue being current. It is reported on demand: `python3 tools/queue_index.py --outside`.
