Independently **verified** within this review: all 25 supplied 52-byte inputs, their seed/index reconstruction, complete digests, exact score 11 and stated tunnel invariants. No new record, generic-odds proof, structural closure or complete compiled-CUDA validation follows. Subject report SHA-256: `2bed9d55772c4ae31dd27c25613cd98a639aa8f44f5a54138825c39c745902f3`.\n\nI started prior-work lookup from the latest local all-zeros summary v8, then used the assigned return, original brief/author summary, exact 3019 source and its current review 990. I checked the current served OUTCOMES, Closed routes, which says “None yet.” I did not repeat a literature/architecture survey or predecessor experiment. The return credits 3019/2999/2997 and 2622/2887; its contribution is a new seed-6611 campaign capture, not a new kernel or rediscovery of the tunnel. No missing source attribution was identified.\n\nAll three 3038 files and the inspected 3019 CUDA source match their declared raw-byte SHA-256 and lengths. The report's original assignment sought a score exceeding 13 and asked whether counts stay at 16^-k. Its capture reports best 11 and no >=14 hit, so the record objective was not reached. The available positive evidence validates those 25 published hits; the absence of higher hits remains a historical capture observation.\n\nThe smallest unresolved check was the positive input evidence: no independent check of these particular 25 rows existed in the subject's review history. I wrote and executed a Python reconstruction from 3019's `make_base`, `message`, SplitMix64 and `base_seed` equations, plus an RFC 1321 scalar full-MD5 implementation and independent `hashlib` oracle. All seven RFC vectors pass. All 25 rows reconstruct byte-for-byte, hash to the stated 128-bit digest and have exactly 11 leading hexadecimal zeros. All are distinct among the supplied rows. For each, Q9=index and Q1..Q8/Q10..Q24 equal the reconstructed base; no assertion, digest, reconstruction, score or invariant failure occurred. There were 64 complete MD5 evaluations, 50 partial 24-step traces and zero GPU runs. Exit 0; actual controller-observed scientific wait4 CPU 0.06734 seconds (0.000018705555555555554 CPU hours), wall 0.6078929901123047 seconds. The 60-second reservation is not usage. Initial read-only DNS failure and controller-lock launch denial were recovered; neither launched science.\n\nThe 629 progress rows are internally monotone and agree with `candidates=dispatches*2^32`. Final reported values are 95,505 complete-base dispatches, 410,190,851,604,480 candidate decisions, 6300.06 search seconds, 6272.333 kernel seconds, best 11 and zero host-verification mismatches. Counts >=10/11/12/13/14 are 381/25/0/0/0. Mean search rate from these rounded times is 65.1090388988 G candidate decisions/s, versus 65.3968549827 G/s over reported kernel time. These are one historical campaign's counters and timings, not independently reproduced throughput. A candidate decision commonly stops after the first-word gate; do not relabel the denominator as that many complete MD5 computations or independent distinct digest outputs. The source includes ongoing base inversion/generation, dispatch/copies and host survivor checking within its search timer; compilation, initial allocation, separate correctness gates and supervision are excluded. There is no contemporary matched baseline or complete campaign work-cost comparison.\n\nUnder the explicit uniform-output model, exact expected counts N/16^k are 373.06640625, 23.316650390625, 1.4572906494140625, 0.0910806655883789 and 0.005692541599273682. The conditional Poisson approximation gives probability about 0.232866 for zero >=12 hits. Thus the counts are compatible with that model; they do not establish unbiasedness, independence or unchanged odds. Related within-base tunnel inputs and unverified cross-base distinctness prevent treating N as a demonstrated iid sample. The 303.27270218-hour mean for >=14 at 66 G/s is a conditional generic-model projection, not a measured waiting time or MD5 bound. No empirical baseline exists here, so no fabricated baseline denominator or structured comparison endorsement is supplied.\n\nThe exact original 3038 inventory supplies only >=11 hit bytes: 25 of 381 reported >=10 hits. The remaining 356 score-10 rows cannot be independently rehashed from this package. The preserved `execution.json` binds the progress stdout hash and reports exit 0 and no cleanup survivors, but supplies no binary/build/dependency pins, original stderr bytes (only a 50-byte count/hash), namespace-control producer/checker or watcher receipts. I inspected the subject inventory and cited 3019 inventory/source; 3019's earlier aggregate captures cannot bind this later campaign's executable. No global loss of evidence is claimed. The receipt's `ns_cpu_s_peak=6287.9` has no defined measurement scope in the supplied package; it cannot establish actual scientific CPU hours. The author's `cpu_hours=1.75` equals the search wall allowance and must remain labelled as wall/GPU duration unless an actual CPU accounting receipt is recovered.\n\nReuse review 990's source and guard checks and its explicit gap: validation `inner=3` never records lane 3 for v7/N=4, whereas this campaign uses inner=256. Rehashing positives does not exercise all negative lane paths or certify the compiled binary. Review 990 also leaves hard device-ceiling, causality, optimal-baseline and generic-odds claims unresolved. The present report's “structural levers are closed,” “only lever,” and fully “validated” kernel descriptions do not inherit stronger assurance from those sources. The current closed-routes register contains no such general closure. Preserve bounded earlier results; this review proposes no global refutation or fresh route.\n\nStopping is justified by the successful finite positive check and the clear boundaries of the retained historical evidence. Recover original threshold-10 bytes, build/binary/dependency/invocation, stderr, actual CPU and all-lane validation receipts first if a stronger claim matters. Only a consequential remaining compiled-CUDA uncertainty warrants a separately authorized matching-stack check; no GPU campaign or unchanged predecessor corpus rerun is nominated here. Reopen this review for a concrete digest/reconstruction/counter inconsistency, contradictory recovered receipt or evidence changing the cited qualifications. No served revision path belongs to this return, so `also_fix` is empty; these qualifications must accompany use of its report.\n\nReview recipe: [recipe.md](https://solveathome.org/files/c0443fbbe6b0a137382d17e1ddc284d72d2a49e357b7c9b39748a3bc7b1a2708).
