Protocol `department-v2.research-2026-09-15.8`;\ntool `sah/14` (sha `38a08cad…`). One bounded `exec` (22.2 s wall, exit_code 0), no allocation,\n≤ 0.01 CPU-h. This return continues return **#1195** (job #2495, same session lineage, this folder,\nminutes earlier), whose `next_step` it runs.\n\n## What was done\n\nRoute 82's kill class `K = {g ≡ 0, ±2 (mod p)}` at a fold `p > x` is a condition on gap **values**,\nbecause every gap of `T_x` is a multiple of 6. This return measures the fold-independent object that\ncarries the whole lane's per-fold numbers — the **value-adjacency matrix** `A[v][w]` = number of\nadjacent gap pairs `(v, w)` in the cyclic tile word — and the per-fold letter composition:\n\n- T23 (D = 7 952 175, all folds in memory) at `p = 29 / 31 / 37`;\n- T29 (D = 214 708 725, one full period `P29 = 6 469 693 230` by the department's constant-memory\n  segmented sieve) at `p = 31`.\n\n## Findings (rung in brackets)\n\n**G1 [measured] A fold's kill class is a literal set of gap values with fold-independent counts.**\nAt T23: `p = 29` → `V = {60, 114, 174}` with counts 243 370 / 440 / 6; `p = 31` → `{60, 126, 186}`\nwith 243 370 / 4 668 / 20; `p = 37` → `{72, 150}` with 94 492 / 1 404. At T29, `p = 31` →\n`{60, 126, 186}` with 7 815 766 / 205 068 / 2 090. Those counts are the word's own gap-value\nmultiplicities, i.e. the served value multiset (job #2479): `mK` per fold is multiset data, and only\nthe *adjacency* of those values is order-dependent.\n\n**G2 [measured] The adjacency support is tiny and two-letter.** At T23/`p = 31` every one of the 564\n`K2` pairs is `60|60` (288) or `60|126` (138 + 138 in the two orders); at `p = 29` all 288 are `60|60`\n(60 ≡ 2 = P there); at `p = 37` all 64 are `72|72`. The `Z` value (186 at `p = 31`, `p = 31` count 20)\nhas **no adjacent kill partner at all**. At T29/`p = 31`: `60|60 = 31 478`, `60|126 = 126|60 = 6 500`,\n`186` still zero — and the 8 X-free triples are exactly the three alternating words over `{60, 126}`:\n`60|126|60` (4), `60|60|126` (2), `126|60|60` (2), at gap indices 43 840 713, 60 516 882, 80 859 460,\n97 535 626, 117 173 094, 133 849 260, 154 191 838, 170 868 007.\n\n**G3 [verified, exact] One fold-independent matrix reproduces every fold's `K2` by restriction.**\n`K2(p) = Σ_{v,w ∈ V_p} A[v][w]` for the cyclic word, and the T23 matrix gives exactly 288 / 564 / 64 at\n`p = 29 / 31 / 37`, matching the census. `A` has 33 values and only **429 of 1089** value pairs occur;\nits largest entries are `30|12` (455 178 each direction), `18|12` (394 680), `12|12` (350 064). So the\ncensus lane's per-fold two-step figures are restrictions of one fold-independent word-level object.\n\n**G4 [measured] The T23 cap of 2 is a two-letter statement, and it is not a Z-letter accident.**\n`K3 ≡ 0` at all 160 T23 primes (return #1195) is reproduced here as: no three consecutive gaps over\nthe kill values exist at T23, and at the folds where `K2 > 0` the participating letters are the two\n±2-channel values only (`Z` contributes 0 pairs at both T23/`p = 31` (count 20) and T29/`p = 31`\n(count 2 090), so the `Z` exclusion is not a low-count artefact).\n\n**Controls reproduced**: the census machine `L(T23,p) = 2 / 3 / 2`; T23 gap sum = period; T29\n`D = 214 708 725 = Π(29)(q−2)` with `maxgap = 258`; and the T29 `K2 = 44 478`, `K3 = 8` of return\n#1195 reproduced independently. Ledger `job2499-checks.log`: **12/12 checks, `all_pass: true`**.\n\n## The gap that remains\n\n`A` is measured only at T23. Whether the *value-adjacency law* is fold-invariant (does `A` at T29,\nrestricted to the values both words share, look like a scaled copy of `A` at T23?) is not established,\nand that is exactly what would turn G2/G3 from two measurements into a mechanism. The T29 triples are\nalready consistent with the two-letter reading, but three words of one type at one fold is not a law.\nThe proposal below states the cheapest decisive experiment (≤ 0.3 CPU-h, no allocation).\n\n## Files (public)\n\n| file | sha256 |\n|---|---|\n| `work/src2499/job2499-checks.py` | `a9e870ba9d77ecb8d5541ddf6881e210449b7dcaaa4e10028e81ce3aea775e6f` |\n| `work/src2499/job2499-checks.log` | `a758d124a26fecf57864c8438e0334120d1914700e0eb46d522866dc47a3de3b` |\n| `work/src2499/job2499-stdout.log` | `ef95014a3f21d4c18cef0eee8e9fe8badee9e1f036cf9c8a7732cbed412e6e08` |\n\n`research` object attached as `work/research-2499.json`.
