Newest records first. Older freezes stay.
The October scalar, curve, and derivation records sit above the September CNG and PMR freezes. A later narrow pass does not rewrite an earlier FAIL. Figures on the new entries are editorial summaries. This website did not re-run those calculations.

Repaired scalar trace at r=6M
TRACE_R6_NUMERICAL_PASS_UNDER_EMPIRICAL_BUDGETMassless Hartle–Hawking scalar, M=ℏ=1, minimal coupling for the tensor comparison. φ²=1.9571596066001755×10⁻⁴. Box(φ²)=3.1414970956971594×10⁻⁷. Scalar-inferred trace −1.2088044476173205×10⁻⁷. Stored PMR trace −1.2086496991741827×10⁻⁷. Residual 1.5474844313788875×10⁻¹¹.
Scalar-only allowance 5.251546195221486×10⁻¹² does not cover the residual. Inherited PMR allowance 3.856578844969775×10⁻⁹ dominates the combined allowance 3.861830391164996×10⁻⁹, which does. Empirical, retrospective, target-exposed. Not a confidence interval or a tail bound.
Primary: N=24, L=48, Duffy 256. Rectangular grid excluded. Nine radii 5.92–6.08M support the derivative only. Two corrections: omitted massless log and rational tails, and the archived static boundary coefficient. This website did not rerun the calculation.

Hadamard e derivation candidate
E_DERIVATION_ONLY_CANDIDATE · E_VALIDATED FALSEA separate derivation matches a, b, and e exactly, with c=d=0. Sixteen checks recorded as passing. Target-exposed, not blind. Not a second Christensen/AHS implementation.
Replay of derived e on five stored radii is recorded as unchanged to roundoff. r=6 bitwise equal to the stored tensor in that report. Stored samples are not independently validated components.
Stored-tensor Box prediction 3.141187598810884×10⁻⁷ is distinct from the 9 October independent Box.

Published HH curve comparison, reconciled 7 October
DIG_AGREE 12/12 · MRX_R_INVALIDNormalized multi-frequency self-cancellation was already implemented. Component values at r=5.5, 6, 6.5, and 7 agree 12/12 with digitized published curves within stated tolerances. Those table values are not in the public JSON.
Full chain remains MRX_R_INVALID. r=5 under analysis v1.0 remains ANALYSIS_R_INVALID. Supplementary v1.1 A11_C2P_PASS_ALL does not replace it.
Stored r=6 conservation residual 8.23579665749×10⁻¹⁰ versus primary tolerance 2.08667476468×10⁻⁸. Primary-tolerance pass of the stored diagnostic. WARD stays HOLD.

CNG confirmation window, narrow pass
NARROW PASS · GLOBAL NOT ESTABLISHEDUnseen window ω∈[10.40,10.90], 51/51 angular-accepted, ε₁=37.5 fixed, never fitted. Accepted record reports C1–C6 PASS. C5 corrected from sequential residual fitting to joint-H1 source A/B transfer plus a fresh target cubic.
Accepted directional R² 0.9988049064965246 and 0.9985764043986991. 9 October replay 0.9988049064965255 and 0.9985764043986983. Roundoff only.
Not global asymptotics, not an infinite-frequency integral, not full HH RSET. Discovery D=FAIL and F=CRITERIA_GAP remain. Grid file is not published. C1–C4 and C6 definitions are not in the public package.

Dense CNG discovery scan and offline re-score
AS WRITTEN 2026-09-20 · STRONG EVIDENCE · WINDOW NOT YET COMPUTED51/51 ANGULAR_ACCEPTED at r=6M, ω∈[9.8,10.3], Δω=0.01. ε_n={37.50,70.17,102.8,135.5} declared before examining the scan and never fitted. Fixed ε₁=37.5 H1 explains R²≈0.997 of F_reg^tt versus ≈0.084 for a smooth cubic. Dominant residual projection is ε₁ by 6.72×. Split-window Δφ≈0.035 rad. tt/rr/θθ all R²≈0.997 with θθ ≈π-shifted.
Old surrogate discriminator: INVALIDATED_DO_NOT_USE_FOR_CNG_DECISION. Offline re-score: A/B/C/E PASS, D FAIL retained, F=F_CRITERIA_GAP. Overall OFFLINE_RESCORE_UNCLASSIFIED_CRITERIA_GAP.
Say substantial numerical evidence for the predicted ε₁ CNG oscillatory structure, as of this date. The window that was next was computed the following day and received a narrow pass. That later pass does not rewrite D=FAIL or F=CRITERIA_GAP.

PMR analytic large-ω expectation audit
GROWTH_EXPECTED_PRE_GI · TAIL FALSE · SUPPORT FALSEAnalytic Levi–Ori t-splitting mapping was frozen before reading the ω=8,10,12 |F_reg| ratios as a derivation. F_sing removes the local coincidence polynomial (ω³ and ω on Schwarzschild). Remote null-geodesic / caustic singularities remain as oscillations of F_reg. Levi (2017) at r=6M states that F_rr^Reg is dominated by oscillations with amplitude ∝ ω^{5/2}. The ordinary integral need not converge; the generalized integral is the method.
Referee verdict: GROWTH_EXPECTED_PRE_GI. DECAY_EXPECTED_POST_SUBTRACTION is not the literature prediction. A missing leading ω³ term is disfavored by the certified ω=8 cancellation |F_reg|/|F|_tt ≈ 0.0124. Do not fit a power law on {8,10,12}.
Do not run Abel. Do not automatically extend to ω>12. Not HH RSET. Not frequency-support convergence.

Certified sparse PMR extension ω=10,12
SPARSE_EXTENSION_PASS · ANGULAR_ACCEPTED + confirmation · L_ceiling=180Both ω=10 and ω=12 received ANGULAR_ACCEPTED and confirmation under the frozen adaptive angular-convergence gate with predeclared L_ceiling=180. Certified pointwise domain to ω=12 is PASS, conditional on the ℓ gate.
|F_reg^tt(10)|/|F_reg^tt(8)|=2.18019. |F_reg^tt(12)|/|F_reg^tt(8)|=4.02997. DECAYING_HIGH_OMEGA_TAIL_DEMONSTRATED=FALSE. ASYMPTOTIC_REGIME_IDENTIFIED=FALSE. FREQUENCY_SUPPORT_CONVERGED=FALSE.
This is not a dense spectrum, not Abel, and not an HH RSET reproduction. L* for 10 and 12 is not published in this freeze.

Prospective unused-ω validation of the adaptive angular gate
ADAPTIVE_GATE_PROSPECTIVE_PASS · ω=7 · L*=90 · confirmation_ok TRUEThe reusable adaptive angular-support gate was tested on previously unused ω=7, starting deliberately under-supported at L=30. It selected L*=90 without a hand-chosen final ℓ_max. Confirmation at L=105 left F_reg unchanged within the frozen criterion.
Important because the gate was not merely fitted retrospectively to already-inspected ω={4,5,6,8} points. ANGULAR_GATE_VALIDATED_PROSPECTIVELY = TRUE.
An ANGULAR_ACCEPTED point is merely eligible to enter a future controlled frequency-integration dataset. Not Abel. Not HH RSET.

Dedicated ω=8 angular staircase closed a late-settling plateau
ANGULAR_PLATEAU_STATUS = PASSAcceptance rule frozen before the run: all of tt / rr / θθ must satisfy D_ℓ < 0.05 for two consecutive ΔL=15 terminal windows while cancellation remains healthy.
L=75 vs 60 FAIL. L=90 vs 75 PASS (D_ℓ ∼ 10⁻¹²). L=105 vs 90 PASS (D_ℓ = 0). The ω=8 issue was late angular settling of the same insufficient-ℓ-support problem, not a separate systematic.
2026-09-19
Controlled ℓ-support isolation restored PMR cancellation at ω=8
ELL_SUPPORT_CAUSE_SUPPORTED = TRUEA controlled isolation changed ONLY ℓ_max at fixed r=6M, ξ=5, ω=8, Hartle–Hawking, same Levi–Ori F_sing, same equations / BCs / precision.
|F_reg|/|F|_tt: 8.698 at L=25, 3.775 at L=35, 1.011 at L=50, 0.0124 at L=75 with F/F_sing_tt = 1.013. Cancellation healthy in tt, rr, and θθ at L=75.
This is not proof that the full PMR RSET is correct. Historical high-ω FAIL is retained as the first chronology step.
2026-09-19
Historical fixed low-ℓ high-ω PMR probe
FAIL · RETAINEDEarlier sparse high-frequency probes using approximately fixed ℓ_max ≈ 35 appeared pathological for ω ≳ 5: regularized residuals grew, F/F_sing deteriorated, and |F_reg|/|F| became O(1) and eventually >1.
A precision/rtol ladder showed the failure was reproducible and was not ordinary float64/ODE noise. Later isolation as insufficient ℓ-support does not erase this FAIL.
Old under-resolved high-ω points must not be used as production Abel input.

Mτ lane paused pending external clarification
PAUSED · EXTERNALLY REVIEWABLE · NOT CONFIRMEDA third internal mode-sign derivation brought INTERNAL_SIGN_DERIVATIONS = 3/3 PLUS. Public archaeology of the authors' private numerical implementation remains UNKNOWN. SIGN_VERDICT = UNRESOLVED.
The mixed-time sign lane is no longer the live B1 frontier. It remains externally reviewable, not confirmed, paused. Production sign is not flipped. Author note remains UNSENT.

Independent symbolic and numerical Mτ sign reproductions
23/23 DERIVED · EXTERNALLY REVIEWABLE · CONFIRMED = FALSETwo fresh implementations — neither importing AG RSET / production modules — independently recover the analytically DERIVED overall PLUS mode contribution under the printed source conventions. Independence grep: PASS. 5/5 synthetic + 18/18 frozen-real = 23/23 DERIVED; 0 PRINTED; 0 unresolved.
MODE SIGN is independently reproduced. LOCAL/GEOMETRIC BRACE is a source-analytic audit, not an independent reconstruction of every geometric brace.
A displayed-formula issue does not imply that the authors' published numerical RSET values are wrong.

Public minimal Mτ reproducibility pack hardened
The independent Mτ materials were reduced to a public minimal pack: 17 inner files, 0 PDFs, no AG runtime imports, no emails, no IPs, no credentials. SHA256 of the published tarball is recorded on the study page.
Author-contact note remains DRAFT / UNSENT. Authors have not been contacted. This website freeze does not send mail.

Source-convention audit of the displayed mixed-time formula
POTENTIAL / REQUIRES EXTERNAL CONFIRMATIONA sign tension was identified between the displayed mixed-time coincidence formula (TBO Eq. 18 / analogous ABOT Eq. 16, overall MINUS) and the sign obtained directly from the papers' own Euclidean Green-function definition, Δτ convention, W = G − K relation, and Euclidean metric (overall PLUS under this reading).
This was not accepted on the basis of Astral Gate's production code. Phase D published numerics remain UNKNOWN. Archaeology of private code remains UNKNOWN.

Suspected +d²/dΔτ² referee-operator bug refuted
OPERATOR EVALUATES MINUS_D2 · UNIT TESTS PASSA candidate explanation that the project's point-split referee operator itself carried a wrong second-derivative sign was tested and REFUTED. The operator evaluates MINUS_D2. Finite-Δτ referee: Mτ_PS = − Mτ_printed at all four radii, consistent with the displayed-formula tension, not with an internal operator bug.

⟨φ²⟩ derivative nested-h certification closed
PHI2_DERIVATIVES = PASS · FOUR_POINT DEV HOLDNested radial-spacing refinement passes for both first and second derivatives at all four certification radii ξ = 1.2, 1.8, 3.0, 5.0. Historical nested-h HOLD is retained as dated history, not deleted.
At ξ=1.2 the coarse D(h) value is unavailable. Certification there is h/2 → h/4 stability, source-derived modewise agreement, N/L spot referee, and mixed error budget — not a measured three-level Richardson order.
Closing this derivative gate did not promote RSET. October 9: this PASS is the old implementation and tolerance, not the repaired scalar budget.

Pre-RSET stack closed at four radii
PRE-RSET STACK PASS · RSET HOLD · B1 PARTIALRadial Green, zero mode, high-mode conditioning, complete m=6 Hadamard subtraction, ⟨φ²⟩ convergence, source-derived radial derivatives, same-ladder derivative comparison, and nested-h refinement have passed at ξ = 1.2, 1.8, 3.0, 5.0 under the implementation and tolerances of this date.
The renormalized stress tensor itself has not been assembled. B1 reproduction remains unclaimed. DIRECT_LOG_5E3 FAIL_EDGE is preserved beside DIRECT_LOG_1E2 PASS. October 9 reassessment: do not read “complete m=6”, “no blockers”, or a blanket TRACE PASS as a current universal claim.
