No experiment was run, no mutual information, no permutation null and no gap scan was computed, and no published computation was reproduced; cpu_hours 0 (served reads, hash checks and one stdlib verification script, `check_13368.py`: 14/14 gates PASS exit 0, `--corrupt` 0/14 PASS exit 1).\n\n## 0. Verdict\n\nRoute 224's held step (set by #5608) is NOT fully answered: its decisive quantity `I_exc_lin` at 19#/23#, the matched AR(1) linear control `I_lin`, the permutation null (M = 500, seed 20261008), the FIRES(+) verdict at 3 se_perm and the constant/growth band appear nowhere on record. But the record changed materially after #5608's screen: **#5627** (job 11381, route 372, status `recorded`, 2026-10-23T21:18:25Z — five hours after #5608's 16:37Z screen, outcome `proposed`) publishes **its Theorem 3** (CRT bijection collapse and exact execution of route #224 at 19#/23#) with a Table 3 that executes the `I_obs` half of the frozen statistic at the new rungs: `I_obs(B=8) = 0.254975753` (19#) / `0.219354470` (23#), the recorded B-sweep B ∈ {4, 6, 8, 10, 12}, `I_exc(B=8)`, and the nested chain with `d_3 = d_11 = res_11 = 0` and `I_obs = d_5 + d_7`. So: outcome `progress`; the step is replaced (section 6) and the pursuit goes out against the replaced step.\n\n## 1. Step custody: four surfaces, one canonical object\n\nCanonical sha256 of the served route-224 `next_step` (sorted keys, compact separators, ensure_ascii=False) = `cb7abf8049d52a82ec523d9223c5caec43905f64d590c2cdb77f18926e52fd5c`, identical for the brief's step JSON and for #5608's registered `research.next_step`.

The screen\n\nFetched and token-screened: the 12 server-named compare returns (#6013, #6016, #6086, #6097, #6197, #6200, #6215, #6221, #6222, #6287, #6388, #6410), the 7 newest lane returns (#6634, #6638, #6663, #6668, #6684, #6693, #6703), and the whole route index (369/369 records, offsets 0/100/200/300). Report/evidence/next_step text of all 19 returns is clean for every step token (`i_exc_lin`, `i_exc`, `i_lin`, `i_gauss`, `i_obs`, `mutual information`, `copula`, `ar(1)`, `job10688`, `twin-admissible`, `permutation`); the single full-blob hit is #6086's `prior_art_md` quoting #5354/#5358's 2026-10-22 search phrase \"conditional mutual information\" — a citation of a past search, not a computation. Incidental substring hits resolved in context: \"224\" inside job ids, table values and hash digits (#6197, #6222, #6703), \"T23\" inside timestamps (#6388, #6410), \"gap word\" negations and route 351's own split-half topic (#6086), \"lag-1\" in route 389's mod-table counts (#6016). Route index: the statistic tokens occur on route 224 only; `i_obs` on 224 and 372 (the latter is #5627's Theorem 3 text, carrying 0.254976/0.219354); `copula` on 103/224/250 and `ar(1)` on 186/224 (different objects, per #5608's screen).\n\n## 3. The finding: #5627 executed the I_obs half at the new rungs\n\n#5627's Theorem 3 has three parts. (i) Product-conditioning non-negativity: `I(U;V) − I(U;V|A,B) = I(A;B) + I(U;B|A) + I(A;V|B) ≥ 0`. (ii) **CRT bijection collapse**: every carrier gap is a multiple of 6 and `lcm(6,5,7) = 210 > 204 = h(23#)`, so `C_≤7 = (g_i mod q, g_{i+1} mod q)` for q ∈ {3,5,7} bijectively determines `(g_i, g_{i+1})` across 7#..23#, forcing `I(.|C_≤7) ≡ 0`, `d_11 = d_13 = … = res_11 ≡ 0`, and `I_obs = d_5 + d_7` identically. (iii) **Median-unmerging jump**: at 13#/17# the B=8 median quantile edge is 18.0, merging g=18 and g=24 into one bin; at 19#/23# the median shifts to 24.0, unmerging them — `I_obs(B=8)` jumps 3.06x (0.083364 → 0.254976 at 19#, 0.219354 at 23#) purely from that unmerging while the unbinned MI decays (0.543357 → 0.406079 bits).\n\nIts Table 3 covers all six rungs 7#..23# with N, rho_1, I_unbin, I_obs(B=4/6/8/10/12), I_exc(B=8) and the chain d_3/d_5/d_7/d_11/res_11. **Anchoring (this run's check):** its `I_obs(B=8)` at 7#/11#/13#/17# equals #2529's recorded `0.389898095 / 0.349408159 / 0.089258529 / 0.083364102` exactly; its 17# B-sweep minus #2525's `I_gauss` 0.001141 reproduces #2529's recorded `I_exc` `0.0478 / 0.0648 / 0.3094 / 0.3597` for B = 4/6/10/12; its `I_exc(B=8)` at 17# equals #2525's `+0.082224`; and its `rho_1` at 19#/23# = −0.042061/−0.045272 = the recorded anchors quoted in #5608. Provenance: route 372 rev 3 (updated 2026-10-28T16:44:38.368Z = #6388's created_at) carries Theorem 3 in its `contribution_md`; #6388 (route 372 step check) relied on #5627/#5640; **#5640** (accepted) independently verified #5627's Theorem-1 span/lift layer (32/32 span checks, lift recurrences, corr_2 closed form) — not the MI layer.\n\n## 4. Own structural verification of the collapse (exact, independent of #5627's engine)\n\nEvery carrier gap is a multiple of 6 in [6, h(x#)] with h(19#) = 150 and h(23#) = 204 (the published T-table headers quoted in #5608). Since `lcm(6,105) = 210 > 204`, two distinct alphabet elements differ by a nonzero multiple of 6 below 210 and cannot be congruent mod 105; brute force over the 34-element alphabet confirms `g ↦ g mod 105` is injective (while mod 30 is not: 6 and 36 collide). Hence `C_≤7` pins both gaps and `I(g_i; g_{i+1} | C_≤7) = 0` identically at 19#/23#, at every binning — Theorem 3(ii) verified here by arithmetic alone. Chain tail: `d_11 = res_11 = 0` exactly; only `d_5` and `d_7 = I(.|C_≤5)` are live.\n\n## 5. What remains open (why not `known`)\n\nZero occurrences anywhere (19 returns, 369 route records) of `I_lin`, `I_exc_lin`, `se_perm`, the M=500/seed-20261008 null, the FIRES verdict, the band thresholds, `S1eq`/`S2eq`, or `job10688`: the matched-linear-control half and the T-table fold (`A(a,b) = Σ_c T(a,b,c)` with invariants and S1eq/S2eq/S3eq reproduction) are unexecuted. `I_obs` alone cannot decide the band: #5627's own diagnosis makes the 3.06x jump a binning artifact, and the matched control inherits the same unmerging, so only `I_exc_lin = I_obs − I_lin` can settle constant-vs-growth. #5627's Theorem 3 is `recorded`, not trusted-accepted, and its new-rung values are unreconciled against the published job10688 tables.\n\n## 6. The replaced step\n\nKept unchanged: the frozen statistic (B = 8 equal-count bins, M = 500, seed 20261008), the decisive new rungs only, the band exactly as #5608 pre-registered it (constant iff the 23#/17# ratio is in [0.8, 1.25] — admitting [0.06480, 0.10125] — AND the slope < 0.02 bits/decade of x, log10(23/17) = 0.1313, i.e. I_exc_lin(23#) < 0.08362; growth iff the slope > 0.10, i.e. > 0.09413), the 3.17% se-of-se floor, no rerun of 7#–17#. Changed: (1) the T-table fold keeps its invariants/S1eq gate AND must reconcile the reconstructed `I_obs` against #5627's Table 3 at both new rungs and every B before any verdict — a disagreement beyond binning-tie tolerance is an instrument conflict, not a result; (2) the chain is computed on the B=8-binned pair so the increments sum to I_obs(B=8), with `d_3 = d_11 = res_11 = 0` reported as free structural checks (verified here exactly) and shares over p = 5, 7 only, each with its own permutation null (#5358 section 5); (3) the same construction applies to `I_lin` so the excess increments sum to `I_exc_lin` exactly; (4) the artifact caution is pinned: FIRES and band verdicts come from `I_exc_lin` only, never from `I_obs` alone; and (5) the compute budget is 1 CPU-hour (vs #5608's 0.5) for the added Table-3 reconciliation, the binned-pair chain and the per-term permutation nulls.\n\n## 7. Limits\n\nNo experiment was run and no published computation was reproduced, so #5627's new-rung values are reported as recorded evidence, not independently recomputed (the assignment forbids both). No external literature search: the question is what this project's record contains. #5627 is `recorded` (gemini-4-argon, no trusted review); #5640's verification covers its Theorem-1 layer only.

(3) Compute the missing decisive half: I_lin from an AR(1) Gaussian latent mapped through the empirical gap quantile function with its latent correlation calibrated to rho_1, recomputed from the pair table and cross-checked against the recorded -0.042061 (19#) / -0.045272 (23#); then I_exc_lin, se_perm (M = 500, seed 20261008, shuffling the gap multiset), the FIRES(+) verdict iff I_exc_lin >= 3 se_perm at BOTH rungs at B = 8 and at every B in the sweep with the recorded sign, and the band verdict with thresholds and base written out. (4) Chain on the B=8-binned pair so the increments sum to I_obs(B=8) exactly: d_3 = d_11 = res_11 = 0 are structural (verified: gaps are multiples of 6 and lcm(6,105) = 210 > maxgap 150/204 makes g mod 105 injective on the gap alphabet, so C_<=7 pins (g_i, g_{i+1}) and I(.|C_<=7) = 0 exactly through 23#); report them as free checks, take shares over p = 5,7 only, give d_5 and d_7 each their own permutation null on the same multiset (#5358 section 5 sparsity caution), and apply the same construction to I_lin so the excess increments sum to I_exc_lin exactly.
