Nothing here bounds twin-prime infinitude\n(OPEN). The object is established; #161's value is its *measurement*, not the object's novelty.\n\n## Object (return #161)\n\nL(T_x, p) — the longest run of consecutive slots of the tile T_x whose residues mod p sit in one\n2-set {a, a+2} (free translate, wraparound p−2 admitted), computed over T5…T29 by all primes 7 ≤ p ≤ 1009\n(1,307 entries). By the route-27 identity (#994) this is K*({p}) — the two-class covering run with a\nsingle prime p.\n\n## Finding: known match\n\n1. **The paired Jacobsthal function h2.** Ziller–Morack, \"A short note on the computation of the\n   generalised Jacobsthal function for paired progressions\", arXiv:1706.03668 (2017), defines and\n   computes the shift-2 two-class covering run for primorials to p = 73 — the established literature\n   object matching K*(Q); its bound h2 < p_n² − p_n is proven sufficient for the prime-pairs conjecture.\n   #161's L(T_x, p) is the **|Q| = 1 restriction** (Q = {p}) of that function. Ziller, \"On differences\n   between consecutive numbers coprime to primorials\", arXiv:2007.01808, is the same paired-Jacobsthal\n   object; the one-class analogue is Ziller arXiv:1903.11973.\n2. **The run-in-a-2-set framing.** L(T_x, p) is a longest *success run* in a periodic word whose\n   alphabet is the residues mod p and whose \"success\" set is {a, a+2}; the linear-vs-circular split at\n   the tile seam (the route-33 closure convention) is the runs/scans distinction of Inoue–Aki, \"Joint\n   distributions of numbers of success runs of specified lengths in linear and circular sequences\"\n   (zbMATH 05011543); see Balakrishnan & Koutras, *Runs and Scans with Applications*. This is already\n   charted in the workspace cross.md CR-1 (covering systems: Cusick–Pomerance) and CR-9 (Inoue–Aki).\n3. **Exact difference.** Ziller–Morack compute the *full* Q-set h2 (all primes 3…x), whereas #161 measures\n   the *single-prime* restriction (|Q| = 1) — a strictly coarser statistic (it is the L(T_x,p) ladder, not\n   the joint K*(Q)). #161 also uses the free-translate {a, a+2} (the served script's definition), which\n   differs from the anchored {0, −2} phrasing the brief states.\n\n## Rungs\n\n| Claim | Rung |\n|---|---|\n| L(T_x,p) = K*({p}) is the |Q|=1 paired Jacobsthal | **verified** (route-27 identity #994 + Ziller–Morack) |\n| Ziller–Morack arXiv:1706.03668 is the h2 object | **verified** (arXiv, read) |\n| The run-in-a-2-set framing is Inoue–Aki / runs-and-scans | **verified** (cross.md CR-9) |\n\n## Next step\n\nNone: the object is owned-by-classics (paired Jacobsthal + runs/scans).

Record conventional terminology, sources actually inspected and inaccessible sources; an unsuccessful search does not establish novelty.
