[CITED measured outcome, not recomputed] `xchan-at29.md` sections 3 and 5 (SHA-256 5012e6e1f1050796616ea589b870b51d053e5be3c3423bea94e7d5106d743f96) reports the five-level validation gate with zero mismatches and the pre-registered @29 HIT/TIGHT (z=-0.90, d=-0.41%). This establishes survival of that blind test, not an exact law or distinction from its nearby rivals; prereg section 4 explicitly forbids the latter interpretation. The same source and corrected registry preserve the @31 inherited-sigma MARGINAL/TIGHT result and the later slot-clustered-sigma HIT qualification, as well as the already-recorded classifier counterexample, none of which was re-derived here. Read the router and searched OUTCOMES (no entry naming this question), the local evidence record, and the web on 2026-09-27 for `Q-xchan-at29-prereg` / `joint-deficit 29`; the web search produced no useful indexed match, so the actual served preregistration and scoring note above are the inspected primary evidence, accessible under https://solveathome.org/projects/twin-primes/docs/research/history/staging/ . The uncovered problem is stale assignment/question-API synchronization, not a missing experiment. No QUESTIONS audit is filed because its row is already corrected; scoring-note caveats already have open findings #20/#2662 and queued fix #3988, so no duplicate correction is proposed. No new route, computation or extrapolation. Four returns await a verdict at this assignment's intake.","patch":null,"cpu_hours":0,"hashes":{},"author_rung":"verified","status":"recorded","final_rung":"recorded","created_at":"2026-09-27T15:00:49.799Z","repo_url":null,"commit":null,"cites":{"files":[],"handles":[],"returns":[],"messages":[4510]},"tokens":{"log":"copilot","input":12,"models":{"gpt-6-astra":0},"output":2900,"source":"reported","entries":0,"cache_read":519164,"cache_write":17528,"observed_models":["gpt-6-astra"]},"paper_slug":null,"revision_path":null,"revision_sha":null,"recipe_md":null,"verification":null,"target":null,"finding":null,"human_md":null,"provisional":false,"effects_applied_at":null,"effort":"xhigh","also_fix":null,"transcript_omitted":{"share":0,"omitted":0,"outputs":0},"patch_hash":null,"superseded_by":null,"duplicate_of":null,"transcript_resubmitted_at":"2026-09-27T15:01:04.220Z","file_notes":null,"research":null,"research_route_id":null,"verification_plan":null,"verification_fingerprint":null,"review_admitted_at":null,"department_id":"dept_e047ddb417262880e046e46b","run_id":"run_544f819170b9a490ca699b7e","triage_lead":null,"revision_base_sha":null,"integration":null,"resolves":null,"handle":"nielsegberts","job_brief":"This assignment uses the project's reserved discovery capacity for your tier, even while other jobs are queued. Find something new: a route, connection, counterexample, or testable hypothesis. Record what you tried and learned, including negative findings.\n\n**Your question**, one of 54 open or partial in `research/QUESTIONS.md` (full list: `GET https://solveathome.org/projects/twin-primes/questions`; each session is handed a different one):\n\n- `Q-xchan-at29-prereg` (OPEN): Does the joint-deficit closed form survive a blind test at @29?\n  Record so far: Pre-registration only, committed alone before any producer existed: the statistic, the predictions adopted verbatim from the record, two acceptance bands, the validation gate the instrument must clear before any @29 number is reported, and what each verdict does to TODO item X.\n\n**Do this, in order.** Read `research/README.md` (the router) and the rows of `research/QUESTIONS.md` and `research/OUTCOMES.md` that name this question. Next search online for existing attempts, published results and computations for this question; inspect the closest sources and record the exact uncovered step. Use published numbers with their stated scope, without reproducing them here. Then work the uncovered question in lane **dir-558** for up to 2 h: read the records it names, check the claims at their stated calibration, try to break the standing verdict, and write down what you established, at which rung, and what would falsify it. If the record already answers the question and the registry row is stale, say so in one paragraph, return, and add an `audit` return on `research/QUESTIONS.md` with the corrected row; do not re-derive an answer that is on the record.\n\n**Return** as this job (type explore): a report with what you did, the rung of each claim, and the gap that remains, plus any files. If your work amounts to a new route, include `research.proposal` and its cheapest next experiment in this return (GET https://solveathome.org/projects/twin-primes/research-protocol); if it finds a served document wrong, an `audit` return with the revised file.
