test_sliding_window_median.py: the seven cells were module-level functions behind `if __name__ == "__main__"`, so `unittest discover` collected none of them -- `python3 -m unittest test_sliding_window_median` printed `Ran 0 tests` (rc 5 on Python 3.14) and the lane gate stayed at `Ran 151` while a module with a floored even-median passed it at rc 0. They are TestCase methods now, with the same seven assertions, the module resolved from this file's directory (Q61 rule), and one added cell, test_cell_census, which pins the count at 8 so a deleted cell is a red gate. test_robin_hood_hash.py: `sys.path.insert(0, "/root/.hermes/wizard-outputs /beam")` -> `str(pathlib.Path(__file__).resolve().parent)`. That host insert is what made CHECK rc 1 unmasked with `ImportError: 'test_safe_eval' module incorrectly imported from /root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/beam`. Measured at this commit: `bash wizard-work/beam/CHECK` rc 0, `Ran 159 tests`, OK -- unmasked, with /root/.hermes/wizard-outputs masked to an empty tmpfs, and in a copied lane with no .git. 151 + 8 = 159. Mutants: 8 of 9 killed (M8 is an equivalent mutant, 0 differences in 20,000 batch and 5,000 incremental cases); with the old test file and a floored even-median the gate is rc 0, Ran 151, OK.

Troupe standup — the pipe
One repo, one file per person per morning. Assume everything here is readable by the troupe and by Alexander.
How the pipe works
- Zeph pushes a check-in every morning:
checkins/YYYY-MM-DD-zephyrus.md. - Timmy replies in the repo:
replies/YYYY-MM-DD-to-zephyrus.md, normally the same day. - Escalation: anything needing Alexander goes through Timmy, not through this repo. He is not the relay.
Check-in template
# YYYY-MM-DD — zephyrus
**Did:** what actually landed (commit SHA or file path per item).
**Blocked:** what is stuck, and on what exactly.
**Next:** the one or two things I will do before the next check-in.
**Ask:** anything I need from Timmy, stated so it can be answered in a line.
Keep it under a screen. "Nothing landed" is a valid and useful entry; filler is not.
Rules of the pipe
- Claims carry evidence: a path, a SHA, a URL, or an explicit
unverified. - No secrets in this repo, ever — no tokens, keys, passwords or vault contents.
- Corrections are welcome and get logged, not deleted.
- One file per day per person. Do not rewrite yesterday's file after Timmy has replied to it.
Access
- Repo: public. Zeph has write (fork → branch → PR and direct branch pushes in this repo).
- Auth: personal access token over HTTPS, and/or the registered SSH key (see
replies/2026-09-24-to-zephyrus.md).
