Repaired scalar trace agrees at r=6M under an empirical allowance
After two implementation corrections, the massless Hartle–Hawking scalar at r=6M gives a trace residual 1.5474844313788875×10⁻¹¹ against the stored PMR trace. The scalar-only allowance does not cover that residual. A combined empirical allowance, dominated by the inherited PMR estimate, does. Status TRACE_R6_NUMERICAL_PASS_UNDER_EMPIRICAL_BUDGET.

CNG discovery scan: strong evidence for predeclared ε₁=37.5
A dense 51-point angular-gated PMR window at r=6M, ω∈[9.8,10.3], shows substantial numerical evidence for the independently predeclared first connecting-null-geodesic frequency ε₁=37.5. Fixed-ε₁ H1 explains R²≈0.997 of F_reg^tt versus ≈0.084 for a smooth cubic. The original surrogate discriminator is invalidated. Offline re-score is UNCLASSIFIED_CRITERIA_GAP. As written on this date the confirmatory window had not been computed. It later received a narrow pass; that does not change D=FAIL or F=CRITERIA_GAP.

20 · NUMERICAL-INSTRUMENT + ANALYTIC AUDIT — NOT AN HH RSET REPRODUCTION · 2026-09-19
Sparse PMR 10/12 plus analytic large-ω expectation audit
A certified sparse extension accepted ω=10 and ω=12 under the frozen adaptive angular gate with L_ceiling=180. |F_reg^tt| grew relative to ω=8. Analytic Levi–Ori t-splitting mapping was frozen before those ratios were read as a derivation: after F_sing, F_reg is not expected to decay before the generalized integral. Referee verdict GROWTH_EXPECTED_PRE_GI. A decaying high-ω tail is not demonstrated. Frequency support has not converged. Abel was not run.

Adaptive PMR angular-convergence gate, prospectively validated
An apparent high-ω PMR subtraction failure was isolated as insufficient angular-mode support. Increasing ℓ_max at fixed r=6M, ξ=5, ω=8 restored cancellation. A dedicated ω=8 staircase closed an angular plateau. A reusable adaptive angular-support gate was then implemented and prospectively validated at unused ω=7, selecting L*=90 without a hand-chosen cutoff. This is numerical-method progress, not Hartle–Hawking RSET reproduction, Abel production, or a gateway result.

Two fresh implementations — symbolic and numerical — independently recover the analytically derived mode sign under the printed source conventions. A third internal derivation later brought the internal count to 3/3 PLUS. The result has been isolated into a public minimal reproduction pack. Public archaeology of the authors' private numerical code remains UNKNOWN. External confirmation remains open. The lane is paused pending external clarification. Production sign is not flipped.

17 · PRE-RSET STACK COMPLETE — RSET HOLD · 2026-09-15
Pre-RSET stack closed at four radii
The independent TBO extended-coordinate implementation has now passed the project's current validation gates for the radial Green function, zero mode, high-mode conditioning, complete m=6 Hadamard subtraction, ⟨φ²⟩ convergence, source-derived radial derivatives, same-ladder derivative comparison, and nested radial-spacing refinement at four benchmark radii. The renormalized stress tensor itself has not yet been assembled. B1 reproduction therefore remains unclaimed.
October 9, 2026 reassessment: this stamp keeps its original date, implementation, and tolerance. A later audit found that a blanket massless skip omitted 18 nonzero logarithmic coefficients and six nonzero rational-tail coefficients, and that the archived static-mode outer-boundary third-order coefficient had the wrong sign and denominator. Do not read “complete m=6”, “no blockers”, or a blanket TRACE PASS as a current universal claim.

Ψ⁺ higher-j precision defect identified and repaired
The previous higher-j Ψ⁺ failure was a loss-of-precision implementation defect, not a physics divergence. The legacy path converted the Legendre product to float before high-precision differentiation, so every j ≥ 1 derivative evaluated spuriously as zero. The replacement retains the exact TBO expression and uses full arbitrary precision plus a source-derived analytic j = 1 treatment with an independent high-dps referee. Certified coefficients were not changed. The old path is retained for comparison.

High-ℓ derivative artifact solved with analytic differentiation
A persistent high-ℓ tail was traced to numerical evaluation of β'' by complex-step differentiation inside the WKB derivative construction. Replacing that procedure with exact symbolic / frozen-k differentiation collapsed the apparent tail. The corrected asymptotic is consistent with a decaying ℓ⁻⁶ series, not a physical nonintegrable tail.
