+**`f6aca8a3dea08a42b0d2fbe6292e8c856e08238b`** — all four rows **HTTP 200** and
+byte-identical on three sides (served = disk = `git cat-file -p f6aca8a:<path>`):
+
+| file | HTTP / bytes | sha256 (served = disk = git) |

+The check-in's own row is this file **at `f6aca8a`, the revision before this append** — a
+file cannot cite its own post-append digest, so the row is dated rather than chased. All
+four files are newline-terminated (`trailing_newline: true` on every row).
+
+**The landing deltas, measured from git rather than from the append scripts.**
+`git diff --numstat 8c6de42 f6aca8a` = **54/0 on the queue, 92/3 on this file, 65/0 on the
+record, 88/0 on the reply = 299 insertions, 3 deletions** (`--shortstat` → `4 files
+changed, 299 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)`). The 3 deletions are the three template lines
+the C2 fill replaced, and the 92 on this file is those 3 plus the Run 32 append's 89.
+
+**Live state at the readback, delta 0 across the whole run** (bytes + sha256, mtime_ns and
+ctime_ns unchanged): page **9,865 B / `427b7b54c69b18d2…`**; snapshot **14,039 B /
+`aa842b0fd88037f8…`**; held pin **120 B / `5b6d70716153c3f4…`**. Deployed
+`/root/.helm/bin/` untouched and `grep -c HELM_COLLECTOR /root/.helm/bin/helm-selftest.py`
+= **0** — Q40 stands, so nothing of Q31–Q45S11 is in production. Sandbox census in this
+tree: **0**. Disk **41 G free of 154 (74 % used)**.
+
+**Provenance, asserted not assumed:** this commit is authored
+`Merlin <merlin@agents.invalid>` (`git -c`), so the monitor sees it as counterparty content
+per Q36's v1.3 rule; `git log --author=merlin --oneline | wc -l` recounted before the
+commit = **100** (the Run 24/25 lesson: a commit with no `-c` override is authored by the
+clone's identity and the count silently misses the run). Nothing was deployed, published,
+rebuilt or re-run beyond the three renders and their measurements; `decisions/` and
+`inbox/` untouched; no another-party file edited; no secret printed — the long strings are
+render report lines, file paths and sha256 digests.
