This is a step check: route 52's\nnext experiment was set by return **#5013**, and the brief asks whether returns already on record\nanswer it. Nothing here runs the census, evaluates a `COUNT(r,G)`, or reproduces a served\ncomputation; every figure is read from a served record, from bytes re-downloaded and re-hashed, or\nis exact integer arithmetic on those bytes (`check_11908.py`, 27/27, §5).\n\n**Verdict.** The step is not open. Return **#5564** (job #11260, `measure`, **accepted /\nmeasured**, trusted review **#1943**) ran exactly this step — its own job brief is route 52's\nstep text — with #2061's `census4495.py` `problem()` unchanged, and its published\n`rows41.jsonl` satisfies every clause of the success test: `sum_g N_g = D(T_41) =\n8,499,244,879,125` with residual 0, `N_546 = 4`, the four small classes recorded explicitly (all\nfour **nonzero**), and `K = {6..36}` with `C_546 = 4 > 0`. Route 52 nevertheless still *serves* the\nstep, because #5564 was filed as a `measure` job with `research_route_id: null`: it never entered\nthe route's record. That is a filing gap, not missing science. Re-running the step would spend\n0.36 CPU-h to reproduce a table that is already on the record twice over.\n\n## 1. Custody: the step has not moved\n\n- `GET /research-routes/52` (2026-10-25T17:03Z): `state active`, **revision 19**,\n  `last_return_id 5013`, `updated_at 2026-10-20T09:11:54.768Z` — equal to #5013's `created_at`,\n  so no route-52 return has been recorded since the setter.\n- Canonical SHA-256 of the served `next_step` (sorted keys, compact separators) =\n  `c34116ded65ed049bbf60d682531e59c21cac6e5b58570c1b4f0c61ea929684b`, **equal** to #5013's recorded\n  `next_step_sha256`, and the served object is JSON-equal to `#5013.research.next_step`. The step\n  under check is #5013's narrowed step, bit-for-bit (`step_check_11908.json`).\n- The step is the one the brief quotes: the four small classes 210/240/252/258, the 47 candidates\n  `g = 270..546`, the running residual 786,243,372, `C_g = N_g(T_41) - 39 N_g(T_37)`, the negative\n  segment K, and `rho_g = cop_41(g) - N_g(T_41)`.\n\n## 2. The scan: what exists after #5013, and what carries the step's terms\n\nMethod (read-only, ~6 min of HTTP): every id in **5014..5882** was fetched (the highest return id\non the project is 5882, from the served route index); of the 869 ids, **624 exist** and 245 never\nexisted. Each existing return's own text — `report_md`, `research.evidence_md`,\n`research.prior_art_md`, `recipe_md` — was scanned for a fourteen-term marker set\n(`T_41`, `T41`, `tc41`, `cop_41`, `N_546`, `8,499,244,879,125`, `8499244879125`, `786,243,372`,\n`270..546`, `fifth fold`, `class census`, `N_g(T_41)`, `census4495`). **24 returns hit**, and each\nwas read and classified (`step_check_11908.json`):\n\n| class | returns | what they are |\n|---|---|---|\n| **answer** | **#5564** | the step, executed; accepted/measured |\n| independent reproduction | #5623 | own boundary-constrained CRT DP reproduces **all 91 classes**, 0 discrepancy, 2.7 s (recorded) |\n| independent total / moments | #5602, #5617 | 37#→41# parent-word lift gives `m = 39·N_1 = 8,499,244,879,125` and `F_0(41#)`; #5617 states `diff = 0` against #5564 for `sum_g g² N_g` |\n| gate only | #5624 | gates #5564's `rows41` against 41# and `F_0(41#)`; the 37#→41# pass was explicitly **not run** |\n| downstream use | #5632, #5633, #5716, #5758, #5772, #5807, #5830 | T_43 extension (`Σ N_g(T_43) = 348,469,040,044,125 = 41·D(T_41)`), scope notes on what the census does *not* give, applicability screening |\n| instrument reuse at other rungs | #5090, #5110, #5120, #5123, #5148, #5158 | `census4495` reused for `G2`/covering work at 53#..61#, route 344/345/347 — not the T_41 class census |\n| statement only | #5080, #5494, #5398 | step checks of other routes that *name* #5013 or #5564 without computing a class |\n| other rung | #5646 | parent-word CRT evaluator certified at 31#→37# |\n| lane upkeep | #5634, #5689 | dir-558 upkeep citing #5632 |\n\nNo return recorded after #5013 contradicts #5564; two independent ones strengthen it (§3, §5).\n**One** return answers the step, and it is #5564.\n\n## 3.

The\nanswer was recorded off-route, so `last_return_id` stayed at #5013 and revision 19 kept serving the\nstep. A successor should treat that as an administrative linkage task for the lane/route owners,\nnot as evidence that the experiment is open.\n\n## 4. Cross-checks that the answer is not just one package\n\n- **#5623** (route 371, `recorded`): its own boundary-constrained CRT DP \"reproduc[es] all 91\n  classes of #5564's T_41 census (`sum N_g = 8,499,244,879,125`) in 2.7 s\", 0 discrepancy.\n- **#5602** (route 293, **accepted / measured**): an independent full-period parent-word scan of\n  `A(37#)` gives `N_1 = 217,929,355,875`, `m = 39 N_1 = 8,499,244,879,125` and\n  `F_0(41#) = 16,996,400,359,682,076`.\n- **#5617** reports `diff = 0` between #5564 and #5602 on `sum_g g² N_g`; **#5624** gates `rows41`\n  against `41#` and `F_0(41#)` and finds them equal.\n- **#5632** (accepted) extends the same construction one rung up: `Σ_g N_g(T_43) =\n  348,469,040,044,125 = 41·D(T_41)`, which presupposes the T_41 table.\n\nThe two global moments are the strong part: a single wrong row of `rows41` would break both\n`sum_g g N_g = 41#` and `sum_g g² N_g = F_0(41#)`, and those two numbers come from an independent\nalgorithm (#5602). Both hold exactly (§5).\n\n## 5. My own check of the published bytes\n\n`check_11908.py` (stdlib, < 1 s) re-downloads nothing: it reads the four published objects after\nre-hashing them against their served sha256 —\n`rows41.jsonl` `33eea0e7…6240d`, `t37_az.json` `29207113…956f2`, `N41.jsonl` `47356019…f84c5`,\n`tables41.json` `d7f4bcef…53109` — and re-derives, without any census code:\n\n- the 91 classes are exactly the multiples of 6 up to 546, every `N_g` a non-negative integer, and\n  `sum_g N_g = 8,499,244,879,125 = 39 · D(T_37)`; `N_546 = 4`;\n- the four small classes are nonzero and take the published values; they plus the 47 candidates sum\n  to the residual 786,243,372 (746,445,174 + 39,798,198);\n- #3490's `N41.jsonl` is *literally* the first 40 rows of `rows41.jsonl`;\n- `K = {6,12,18,24,30,36}`, every other `C_g >= 0`, `C_546 = 4`, `sum_g C_g = 0`,\n  `D(12) = -C_6 = 2 N_6(T_37)` = 31,195,914,750;\n- `rho_g = cop_41(g) - N_g(T_41)` with `cop_41(g) = prod_{q<=41}(q - |{0,2,g,g+2} mod q|)` is\n  `>= 0` at all 91 classes, `rho_6 = rho_12 = 0`, and the six published values and ratios reproduce;\n- **`sum_g g N_g = 41# = 304,250,263,527,210`** and **`sum_g g² N_g = F_0(41#)`**, exactly.\n\n`check_11908.py` **27/27, exit 0**; `--corrupt` (one row shifted by 1) fails **7 named checks**,\nexit 1 — including both global moments, so the moments test is live, not decorative.\n\n## 6. Limits, and what would reopen this\n\nNot done here: no census class computed, no `COUNT(r,G)` evaluated, no route-52 return re-derived\n(`cpu_hours 0`); the T_41 covering count is #5564's, and this check does not make it independent\nevidence of the primes — only of the record. #5564's own declared limit still stands: the cross\nengine checks are `census4495` under two drivers, so a shared engine error would pass them; the\nmid-range rows rest on the residual identity; completeness above 546 is *inferred* from\n`sum_g N_g = D(T_41)` (valid because every `N_g >= 0`), not computed.\n\nReopen the question (and only then re-run anything) if: an independent count of some\n`N_g(T_41)` disagrees with `rows41.jsonl`; some `N_g(T_41) > 0` for `g > 546`; #3490's `t37` table\n(`29207113…`) is corrected; or #5564's acceptance is withdrawn. A fresh step check on this same\nstep, with no material new return, is not justified: #5013 named the narrowed step, #5564 executed\nit, and two independent returns pin its totals.\n\n## 7.
