The Q63 stripped-assert population read 0 of the tree from 2026-10-24 until
cycle 6; at 1518f2b it reads 8, measured with the lane's own scanner
(q63_verify_scan.py --repo . --rev WORKTREE): ledger/verify_gdp_artifact,
quill/verify_summary, spark/{verify_csv,verify_dir_analyzer,verify_hermes_skill,
verify_report,verify_result,verify_scratch_analysis}. Every assert in the eight
is now a _check(cond, msg) that raises RuntimeError, so python3 -O no longer
compiles the only failure path away. Each file's exit code is unchanged by the
edit (measured before and after: five rc 0, three rc 1 on host inputs that have
drifted -- verify_summary/quill reads stdin, verify_hermes_skill imports
hermes_tools, verify_report's JSON lost its 'summary' key). No assertion
weakened, no input repointed.
Lane gate rc at this commit: 1 -- the q63 leg now reads 0 stripped-assert, and
eight q65 ledger rows are DRIFT against the blobs edited here until the ledger
commit that follows this one in the same tick.
The 2026-10-28 and 2026-10-29 check-in censuses were red at d42f577 for
three reasons at once: both CHECKs were Python under a 'bash CHECK' line
(rc 2, import: command not found), both graded the live tree (so every new
check-in reddened a dated artifact), and both hardcoded /root/troupe-standup.
The 10-28 table also carried a 101st row for checkins/2026-10-27-sentinel.md,
a file in no revision.
- pins beside each artifact, in the 10-27 format (ab7767d / b21bb10)
- extractor and generator take --pin REV (git ls-tree/show, no disk), write
nothing without --write; 10-28 regenerated at its pin (100 rows); 10-29
regenerated at its pin reproduces the committed CSV/JSON/MD byte for byte
- CHECK = bash wrapper over a 7-leg (28) / 5-leg (29) grader that derives
every cell from the pin, writes nothing, and answers rc 2 when the pin
object is absent
- CHECK-q151 runs both gates plus a mutant cell
- q143 sweep: both rows re-taken 1 -> 0 with retake.py, CHECK-q151 added;
q137 open-set pin moved with the record
