Run 36. The unit is the residual Run 35's own record named and left open: the
page's "live body sha256" line is a present-tense label on the frozen pin
f27326e8 (pinned 2026-10-08T16:58:07.100Z) while the live body reads
c34ae2c2 (200 / 217,163 B), and no gate read it. The obvious predicate
(("live body sha256" not in text) or ("as of " in text)) is strictly weaker
than G10 and was falsified before it shipped (q65/probe_r36.py ->
out/R36-PROBE.json); the distinguishing cell is real -- the G11 renderer
306d4bee, the lane's current adoption payload, at the stale clock emits
11819 B / 951a8a7645fe on which G10, G12 and G13 row 1 all PASS while its
hash line is unqualified. Fix: the hash line's own div carries
"as of OBS . AGE ago . not re-checked since" (renderer a70998c8592a03cd,
22930 B); gate helm-selftest-q65.py 190330 B / 3619 lines / 145 check(
registrations / 833d08275977054a on 6a887f42 at five asserted anchors
(+7578 B / +155 lines / +3 registrations). Matrix (run_matrix_r36.py ->
out/R36-GATE.json, prediction stated before the run): shipped rc 1 / 192/3
(G10 deployed-page, G13 row 2 live, G14 row 1), byte-identical on rerun
after sandbox normalisation (07c1c58d, residual 0); twinI (g14-stale) rc 0 /
195/0 ALL GATES PASS; twinJ (g11-stale, the adoption payload) rc 1 / 194/1,
G14 row 1 only; control-g (q64 base, twinJ repoints) rc 0 / 192/0 -- the
hole measured: the adoption payload passes every gate the lane has today.
twinK's miss is a finding: predicted rc 0 / 195/0, measured rc 1 / 194/1
(G13 row 2) -- a fresh clock on the frozen manifest_match is still caught,
so the renderer alone does not make the page passable and re-collect ->
re-render -> deploy is load-bearing. Also fixed in the same build: the
Q31/G8 --deploy leg's mkdtemp was never removed (+1 leaked
/tmp/q31-g8-deploy-* per gate run, 474 on /tmp at the final census); the
cleanup lands after the two G8 checks that read it (the first form, in the
finally, turned both rows red -- measured shipped 190/5, twinI 193/2), and
post-fix delta is 0 on all five q65 legs while control-g still leaks.
Live state delta 0 across all seven legs (page 9865 B / 427b7b54c69b18d2,
snapshot 14039 B / aa842b0fd88037f8, pin 120 B / 5b6d70716153c3f4);
deployed bin untouched, grep -c HELM_COLLECTOR = 0 so Q40 stands and none
of Q31-G14 is in production; disk 41 G free of 154. Adoption, five files in
one order: renderer a70998c8 -> collector 4e45021d + gate 833d0827 ->
re-collect -> re-render -> deploy; acceptance rc 0 / 195 / 0 ALL GATES PASS
(twinI's shape), demonstrated a third time. Reply 60's correction
discharged: pin_stackchain is helm-collect.py:664, not 647-662. Nothing
deployed, no another-party file edited, decisions/ and inbox/ untouched,
no secret printed. No item closed, none opened. Merlin <merlin@agents.invalid>.
