{"id":498,"job_id":1148,"problem_id":1,"lane_id":3,"type":"explore","user_id":36,"model":"gpt-5.6-sol","provider":"openai","report_md":"# Job1148: route21's frozen-witness triage is source-limited\n\nOutcome: INCONCLUSIVE, no next experiment queued. The prescribed p43/N20 witness is absent from the inspected public producer outputs, and ask8 is still open with no answer. This is not a negative boundary margin or a refutation of transport. I refine the minimum input needed, then pause the numerical check rather than regenerate the old ladder.\n\n## What the source inspection establishes\n\nThe original ladder.py computes cert=tc.certify(D,qs) at line65 and checks it at66-67. It keeps only prefix/rule metadata at69-73, serializes a summary row at81-85, and writes those rows to ladder.json at100. Its shown code does not save the p43/N20 cert. The variable is replaced at the next prefix, including the N19 exhaustion case. This describes the producer, not every local record the author may have retained.\n\nThe served ladder.out and ladder.json list p43/N20/a10007/L913 but no original weight vector, weighted slots or exact weighted ratio. The separate fractgap.json contains p13/19/31 summaries; it is not the prescribed case. tightcert.py's imported functions return rich certs, but a separate CLI invocation that prints one would regenerate the original work and change the retrieval task into reproduction. I ran neither program.\n\n## A smaller sufficient input\n\nThe original source makes positive_certificate retain only slots with positive rounded weights (tightcert.py446-465). certify returns these slots, their weights and the exact ratio at559-562; verify checks their positive weighted inequality and membership in the input support at616-620.\n\nTherefore the numerical profile need not receive the entire ordered D20 or a separate old per-prime capacity vector. Let S be the original positive-weight subsupport and extend its weights by zero on D20 minus S. Assuming the borrowed original membership/provenance claim S subset D20, every phase capacity on the zero-extended D20 equals its capacity on S. After deleting K47(c), the same equality holds on the residual S_c=S minus K47(c). Zero-weight omitted slots affect neither total weight nor weighted capacity.\n\nThe minimal retained object is the ORIGINAL paired positive slots S and weights, its exact reported ratio rho, and association with the p43/N20/a10007/L913 input and Q43. Original cert.instance metadata/hash and the author's retained-file link should pin that association. The support-membership and old verification claims remain conditional on recorded return420; they are not independently checked here.\n\nFor a future profile, W=sum_S w and the reported old total capacity is rho*W. The new exact margin can be computed directly as w(S_c)-sum_{q in Q47}max_b w(K_q(b) intersect S_c). Cr is max_c w(K47(c)); aggregate common-owner savings in497's decomposition are rho*W-Cr-sum_common C'_q(c). This needs no individual old capacities, old frontier scan or LP refit. A positive result on S_c also certifies its containing altered full support, conditional on membership. A bad reported ratio or provenance would be a premise failure, not evidence about transport.\n\nClarification1599 to@maxime-fleury requests this smaller retained cert through existing ask8, with no regenerated weights, new center or replacement instance. No witness values were supplied during this triage.\n\n## Investment decision and limits\n\nThe numerical source gate is unresolved. I cannot report c0, a minimum over47 phases, runtime, budget pass or a checker receipt. Missing data does not justify a promising assessment based on a mathematical possibility alone. I omit next_step so this same missing-source experiment is not automatically repeated.\n\nReconsider if an original retained cert with positive-slot/weight/ratio and input association is provided. A substitute case would need a separate explicitly frozen proposal. Once the actual input exists, the new residual calculation can use497's proposed60CPU-second cap; its execution/independent checking must be packaged from actual bytes. I do not create a fictitious manifest or passing target now.\n\nRoute21's exact accounting and full-window p3->5 example remain as recorded in497; this triage does not re-prove or platform-verify them. The generic weighted-set and dual-sensitivity mathematics is known. Its specific p43->47 numerical profile remains uncomputed; full-prime paired Jacobsthal monotonicity supplies no substitute. The original small-diameter limitation and unproved all-center/growing-scale family are unchanged. No exponent or infinitude conclusion follows.\n\nCalibration: source/persistence findings SOURCED by static inspection; zero-extension/minimal-input identity author-PROVEN, conditional on original support association; profile unresolved. Author rung proven covers the displayed elementary identity, not420's empirical run. Return420 and497 are RECORDED, and this explore does not request review.
