{"id":78,"job_id":218,"problem_id":1,"lane_id":6,"type":"explore","user_id":18,"model":"gpt-6-astra","provider":"openai","report_md":"# Q-shadow-prereg: the experiment was scored; its OPEN registry row is stale\n\nThis is a record audit, not a new shadow measurement or a proof of the pair-Buchstab identification. The existing record already answers the assigned bounded question: **SHAPE-ONLY**, under the original deciding set y >= 997. The reported shape criterion passes, but the magnitude criterion fails near y = 1000. The question index still presents the pre-registration as an unscored OPEN question. Its status should be ANSWERED with the existing scored result linked. Twin-prime infinitude and the conjectural pair-Buchstab identification remain open.\n\n## Evidence and calibration\n\n1. **VERIFIED, document and arithmetic check.** `shadow-prereg.md`, “Scoring rules, fixed in advance,” fixes tolerance 0.011, deciding levels y >= 997, and DERIVED only if D1, D2, and D3 all hold. `shadow-buchstab.md`, section 1, reports D1 passing in 9 of 10 clusters and D3 passing in 10 of 10. Its section 2 prints the first measured and predicted ratios, 0.85004 and 0.83365. Their difference is 0.01639, or 1.49 times tolerance. Even allowing rounding of both displayed five-decimal values, D1 fails. Given the reported D3 result, the original rule yields SHAPE-ONLY regardless of the disputed D2 interpretation. I did not rerun the underlying sieve.\n2. **Existing MEASURED result, not newly reproduced.** `adversary-wave2.md`, section 1, already supplies this adjudication and rejects removing the low deciding cluster after measurement. The opening correction in `shadow-buchstab.md` agrees. The body heading “DERIVED above y approximately 1400” is historical overstatement contradicted by that correction; it cannot override the pre-registration. This audit does not promote the measurement to a theorem.\n3. **Existing correction, retained at its stated scope.** `shadow-amplitude.md`, sections 5–6, supplies a finite-y normalisation correction and identifies an overlap-related counting-floor error, but explicitly retains SHAPE-ONLY. Those later changes do not retroactively replace the original candidate or scoring rule. Its separate amplitude question remains PARTIALLY EXPLAINED.\n4. **VERIFIED, registry check.** Both occurrences of Q-shadow-prereg in `QUESTIONS.md` say OPEN and link only to the pre-registration. Q-shadow-buchstab already says ANSWERED and records SHAPE-ONLY. Channel message 177 previously identified this stale-row problem; messages 179 and 258 provide related registry context. This is not a new discovery of the scoring outcome.\n\n## Correction supplied\n\nThe revised `shadow-prereg.md` changes only its ledger status and verdict: ANSWERED, with a scored-record pointer and the preserved limitations. Every byte outside the ledger block remains identical, including all frozen predictions, tolerances, definitions, and verdict rules. This changes the file hash; it does not claim the entire historical file remains byte-identical or newly establish pre-registration custody.\n\nThe revised `QUESTIONS.md` changes only its two Q-shadow-prereg rows. The rows were produced by the unchanged project generator on a one-note fixture, and each original generated fixture row was first required to match the served full index exactly. This is an incremental generated revision, not a full-corpus regeneration. The integrator should apply the source-ledger correction and regenerate the full index with `node research/gen-questions-index.js`; otherwise a later regeneration would restore the stale rows.\n\n`registry.patch` contains both changes. `verify-registry.js` reproduces the scoped generation, tests the ledger through the project's own checker, verifies body preservation and the two-row-only change, and writes `verification.json`. The fixture has zero ledger findings. The full-corpus gate was not run: only the assigned sources were retrieved.\n\n## Falsifiers and remaining work\n\n- The registry finding would fail if the cited snapshot did not contain the two OPEN rows, or a newer adjudication explicitly replaced SHAPE-ONLY. A subsequent source change requires rebasing the patch rather than silently overwriting it.\n- The inherited scientific classification would need reconsideration if the deciding measurement or D3 result were corrected, invalidated, or superseded by a properly distinguished experiment. The present arithmetic check establishes only what the displayed numbers and recorded rule imply.\n- A mathematical proof of the pair-Buchstab identification is still absent from these records. No exponent bound, prime count, or infinitude claim changes.\n- No new route is proposed, and no closed route is reopened. `OUTCOMES.md` contains no Q-shadow-prereg/shadow-buchstab row in this snapshot; its Closed routes section was consulted for scope.\n\n## Reproduction\n\nFetch the listed sources from `<project base>/docs/`, compare their SHA-256 values in `source-manifest.json`, and save the four validator inputs together as `shadow-prereg.md`, `shadow-buchstab.md`, `QUESTIONS.md`, and `questions.js` (the last from `research/qc/questions.js`). Retrieve `verify-registry.js` from this return's files.\n\nRun with Node.js 22 or later (tested on Node.js 24.19.0):\n\n```sh\nnode verify-registry.js sources output\n```\n\nExpected: exit 0; zero fixture ledger findings; SHAPE-ONLY regardless of D2; residual 0.01639; tolerance multiple 1.49; exactly two generated index rows changed; pre-registration body unchanged. The three output hashes are in `artifact-hashes.json`. The validation process completed in about 0.1 seconds locally and needs no research-compute allocation. No sieve, Mathlib cache, GPU work, or subagents were used.
