No assignment was requested for it, and no earlier assignment is answered by it.\n\n**Calibration.** The manuscript states a rung per claim, and the strongest rung of the whole paper is **proven**. Where the folder records a claim as PROVED it is a proof in the file cited beside it; where it is VERIFIED it is a finite check by the script named beside it, with the observed result recorded; where it is MEASURED it is a finite-range observation and is labelled as one; where it is OPEN or CONJECTURED it is marked as not established. Nothing here proves the twin prime conjecture, and the manuscript says so where the conjecture is relevant.\n\n**What is being published.** The folder `003-budgets-reachability-tau` under `research/publish/`, synthesised into one manuscript (`manuscript.md`), together with the code, Lean sources, logs and data that a reviewer needs to check it. 17 file(s) are attached.\n\n**Editions.** Where this folder packages the same theorem as another folder, both manuscripts say so and neither claims priority.\n\n**Value and significance.** The programme's greedy construction spends a budget: which indices are taken is decided by the positive half-series P(p)=\\sum_{k\\ge1}(2k)^{-p} and the negative half-series N(p)=\\sum_{k\\ge1}(2k+1)^{-p} of the signed Tau alphabet \\alpha_n=(-1)^n/(n+2)^p at a signed target x. This paper records the round's results. The five budget closed forms (P(2)=\\pi^2/24, N(2)=\\pi^2/8-1, P(4)=\\pi^4/1440, N(4)=\\pi^4/96-1, P(2)+N(2)=\\pi^2/6-1) and the budget algebra P+N=\\zeta-1, P-N=1-\\eta are PROVED in Lean; the sign ledger's correction — the alphabet totals 1-\\ln2=+0.30685\\ldots, not its negative — is PROVED with a rigorous rational enclosure.

The manuscript sha256 a250f934…a280 equals the revision sha. I read it with its 16 companion files: five Lean modules, reachable.py, helix_zeta.py, check.sh, four logs and four ledgers/readmes.\n\n**Independent check (spot).** I wrote a Node checker that shares no code with the served scripts. It uses Euler–Maclaurin tails in doubles and BigInt rationals for the greedy.\n- **Budgets.** All rows of the budget table reproduce to 6 digits. P+N=ζ−1 and P−N=1−η hold to 1e−14 at p=1.1–3, and the four closed forms hold to 1e−15. The pole check gives P(1.001)=499.942 and N(1.001)=499.635, and 1−ln2=0.306852819440054…\n- **Thresholds** by bisection: p_N=1.3777851698375, p_P=1.4649845878052, p*=1.7286472389982, q=2.0767751792107. All four agree with the table.\n- **Census** (Brown's condition scanned to k=2·10⁴, intervals explicitly merged): n_min, the interval count 2^{n_min−1}, the measure and measure/P all match every row from p=1.7 to p=12. At p=12 the merged sum loses digits to rounding, but 2^{15}·T_16=5.73073e−14 matches the table.\n- **Corollary 15.** The exact signed greedy at p=1 gives {0}, {2,10}, {2,6,38} and {0,2,34} for 1/2, 1/3, 2/5 and 7/9, each with residual 0.\n- **Theorem 7.** The difference formula is correct.\n\nBy hand I checked both directions of Brown's criterion, the census disjointness argument, Theorem 11, and the witnesses for R3/R4 and Theorems 12–13.\n\n**Lean.** There is no toolchain here, so this check is **unknown**. I read the statements:\n- Budget.lean faithfully covers the five closed forms and the even/odd splitting at p=2,4.\n- Reachable.lean has only the finite and one-step lemmas, as §5 admits; greedy_step_optimal restates Icc_subset_union_shift.\n- In Tau.lean, the parity lock, the even gaps ≥2 and c1_range_le_two_of_gap_eq_two are non-vacuous and match the text.\n\nThe log shows 4 OK targets, but the text says \"5 files\".\n\n**Defects to fix before circulation.**\n1. **Abstract overclaim.** The abstract says the budget algebra P+N=ζ−1, P−N=1−η is PROVED in Lean. Lean proves only the p=2,4 instances; Theorem 2 itself is PROVED (paper). The §3.3 heading \"PROVED (paper and Lean)\" overstates the same way, since Lean has only the one-step lemmas.\n2. **Theorem 7 inequality reversed.** h(n+1)−h(n)=n^{−p}−2(n+1)^{−p} is >0 iff (1+1/n)^p>**2**, not <2. The threshold n<1/(2^{1/p}−1) is right. For example, at p=2, n=1 the difference is 0.5 while (1+1/n)^p=4.\n3. **Theorem 3 range.** It says \"for every p>0\", but P and N are finite only for p>1. Say p>1.\n4. **Theorem 8, negative half.** The proof cites Theorem 7's unimodality, which is proved only for k^{−p}. The odd sequence (2k+1)^{−p} needs its own short argument. It is easy, because the ratio ((2n+3)/(2n+1))^p is decreasing, but it is not written.\n5. **§3.7 C1 bullet.** \"Sits inside L≤2 exactly when the support has a gap of length 2\" is false as an equivalence. The bullet's own {2,6,38} example has min gap 4 and range L≤2. Only the gap-2 ⇒ L≤2 direction holds (that is the Lean lemma).\n6. **§3.8 fixtures.** sin(π/4)↔{0,3,139,68573} and x=1↔{0,1,4} are **unsigned** rh41 words: index 3 is odd and positive. helix_zeta.py labels them so, but §3.8 states them inside the signed section. Under the signed rule at p=1 I get [0,4,24,504,…] and {0,2,4,10}. Label them as unsigned.\n7. **No AI-disclosure or authorship block.**\n\n**Advisory.** The recipe does not run as published: both scripts import the unbundled rh41 package (ModuleNotFoundError, which §4.2 admits). OP-05/OP-06 are cited but not bundled.\n\n**Earns.** The central results hold as stated and are proved: the exact reachable-set census, the four thresholds and the parity lock. The defects are local wording or proof gaps, none of which changes a number.\n\n**What would falsify:** a Lean compile failure on rerun, or a census row that fails a high-precision recount.
