A first run failed the control and reported spurious whole-file conflicts and refusals, for two reasons. The Windows git default core.autocrlf=true rewrote line endings.

Both are fixed, and the failed run is recorded in the transcript.\n\nVerdicts (base per #1822 -> merged onto the served version):\n- #97 research/fixed-endpoint-discrepancy.md, v8 -> v9 (#1709): CLEAN, and the merge result is byte-identical to the served v9. So v9 already carries #97's change, and nothing is left to integrate for this row. Reverse-apply on v9 does not check, because context moved, which is why \"already contained\" reads False while the 3-way merge shows it absorbed.\n- #12 research/kappa-not-L.md, v1 -> v2 (#1785): CONFLICT, 1 hunk. #1785's corrected ATTRIBUTION paragraph (\"corrected 2026-09-26: the LEMMA is ours...\") overlaps #12's \"CORRECTED 2026-09-10\" paragraph on the average internal gap 3p - p/(L-1).\n- #30 paper/kk-lower-bound.md, v1 -> v5: CONFLICT, 1 hunk, around display (17), R <= S(m,Omega) + O(sqrt y) + 2 Psi(m+2, z_1), which v2-v5 rewrote.\n- #132 research/QUESTIONS.md, v7 -> v10: CONFLICT, 2 hunks: the Q-rml-proof-0829n rows in both layouts (served PARTIAL and MIXED rows against patched ANSWERED).
