Change and mathematical scope

Add research/h25-manual-bootstrap-acquisition/: a fixed pre-entry driver around the published manual parent, 26 new behavioral controls, exact external dependency mapping, Pro/source/result review, and a scoped genuine negative observation.

One actual normal C2 diagnostic observed the source-fixed financial directory absent (HEAD_ABSENT, planned exit 78), under verified real EX with known once-only cleanup, no error and no IO uncertainty. Independent AI review accepted the point-in-time negative. The round closed; optimized native execution, genesis and manual dispatch did not follow. This is not a financial predecessor, debt/orphan absence proof or positive owner/bootstrap qualification.

Compiler-input closure and the authentic bootstrap-control campaign remain incomplete. The goal service was separately observed paused at this checkpoint.

Task, base, related work and provenance

Original source investigation: PR #6321. Frozen H25 benchmark: PR #6029. Immediate predecessor: PR #6709.

Explicit user-assigned implementation/contribution follow-up. Base 7c49fe32c55de02c2c873655c804b16e4c3fef0a; only one new archive directory, no shared workflow, TASK/VERIFY or replay-registry changes. External dependency #6709, exact head 24417a34746985dd110d70a42b2b863b96963c12, supplies seven existing implementation modules plus thirteen inert donor bodies (893,714 bytes). All twenty have exact public URL/size/SHA256/Git-blob mapping; no duplicate bodies or false ancestry claim. Separate workflow repair #6699 remains unchanged. Bounded related-PR research and the complete Pro response are distinguished from global novelty or accepted mathematics.

Implementation and verification

The one-shot driver retains actual parent startup/loader handles, verifies real C2 EX before any prepare, checks paired canonical nofollow ENOENT, and preflights a bounded complete permitted role graph before actual manual financial meter reading on a present branch. First-error/unknown cleanup remains STOP. It is not a persistent manual IPC bridge. Absolute subject/source bindings need a newly reviewed profile for another installation.

• 26/26 new pure normal and 26/26 new pure optimized: 52 observations, zero failures/errors/skips; once each, independently accepted against exact source/raw hashes. These literal controls are not the original native campaign.
• One genuine native normal: HEAD_ABSENT, two EX observations, known once-only CLOSE_RETURNED, no IO uncertainty or errors; zero financial records, prepare/dispatch disabled. Independently reviewed. Native optimized 0; reruns 0.
• Source driver SHA256 efdeaa05a025de9d457355052a18027c2ce5e1733ae3003d9de2e8782c45dea0; controls d3a924a5d8ca48eadfdbf2bfdf3ee709860d43be4103564080c8c60615f1b4eb. Authored/cold pairs and installed seven source hashes remained unchanged.
• Native CPython 3.12.3 isolated normal mode, GNU TERM20 s/KILL2 s watchdog, 1 GiB AS/20 s CPU/256FD limits; original lock and existing sources preserved. No old meter or unchanged controls rerun.
• GNU wall/CPU/maxRSS: pure normal 0.40 s/0.38 s/24,792 kB; optimized 0.31 s/0.31 s/24,664 kB; native 0.18 s/0.14 s/31,364 kB. Native driver-local interval 127,782,506ns versus Tool wait 0.071924388 s; scopes remain distinct, no speedup/whole-cost claim.
• Passive python3 -S -s -B check_integrity.py verifies archive path/byte hashes only; no candidate import/native hook. Raw native EX/FD/process/financial/census and private consultation transport remain local; public summary pins retained raw evidence.

Timing exception preserved: initial 05:29 stop enforced; technical review 05:29:07 was seven seconds late, corrected immutably; parent explicitly reassessed 05:31:14 under standing authorization. No retroactive gate pass, clock reset or hard-limit extension. Source frozen05:38:46 before 05:39; review 05:51/hard05:59 unchanged. Initial control freeze retains an earlier interface snapshot; final source/result review binds final bytes.

New conservative policy debit 100 s (installation 25 + two pure commands 50 + native 25). Supplemental combined 285.890533479 s; canonical historical 94.550533479 s unchanged. Overlapping scopes must not be added. Preparation/Pro/agents/review/cleanup/CI/publication/final metadata and historical gaps remain OPEN_NOT_ZERO.

Credit

Preserve Apache-2.0, source-specific notices and credit Chris R/Clear1nsight, Douglas R. Colkitt, unpaidmoon/Cursor-Grok and predecessor source/review contributors. Substantial ChatGPT Pro, OpenAI Codex and GPT-6.1 Sol Max implementation/independent AI review assistance. AI review is neither human nor proof-kernel acceptance.

Open next questions

The append-only route now has a decisive missing predecessor. Smallest next task: separately review a generation-zero constructor/account preserving genuine legacy state, all later known costs and unknown frontier. No invented zero, permissions, cost erasure or automatic initialization. Full original native campaigns, an eligible formal target, the manual owner/provider/START/reservation/settlement path, and independent resource/cost acceptance remain unqualified. Original acceptance alone changes original activity credit. No merge/new budget/schedule/automatic next round is requested.

[Clear1nsight]

Delivery verified for exact head b505c6cf6121d1fc12cfa4baf3093305dae0ba07 (main parent 7c49fe32c55de02c2c873655c804b16e4c3fef0a). Chrome draft submission, exact title/body, maintainer edits OFF, all 31 remote blob/mode identities and independently expected package tree 6cbc617a94cb4dfcdb98bf64d0269250e0230e16 were read back; all pre-existing upstream files preserved.

Hosted run 41781624077 / attempt 1 completed successfully: plan PASS, replay SKIPPED. This is archival planning, not hosted native or mathematical qualification. Passive byte-integrity check passed; 26 new pure methods passed once in each normal/optimized mode (52 observations), independently accepted. One genuine normal C2 diagnostic returned the predeclared HEAD_ABSENT negative with known once-only cleanup/no IO uncertainty. There were no optimized native runs, reruns, genesis, or dispatch. Source, actual result and final publication scope independently reviewed.

Canonical handoff and short hub pointer updated with prior evidence preserved. Next specific blocker: separately reviewed genuine generation-zero constructor/account preserving legacy/later costs and unknown frontier. The named original compiler-input, bootstrap-control and runtime qualifications remain open. The goal service was separately observed paused at this checkpoint. New policy 100 s/supplemental combined 285.890533479 s; canonical historical 94.550533479 s separate/overlap not added; all outside physical costs OPEN_NOT_ZERO. Timing exception/correction/reassessment retained. Round closed negative; no automatic new campaign, budget, merge or schedule.
