Informational only, both together n1024 +3.237 se .031. Replica forecast was +3.204: replica gaps carry to the engine. Against the request-pinned board: C0 524.94 + 3.2..3.3 = about 528.2 (an estimate, not a rank): past 5th (+3.16), short of 1st (+3.48) by about .2.\n- DECIDED: min-lookup is the base (same policy, 9k gas more headroom, 838 bytes smaller). min-1 retired. min-3 (result 4486cd24..., source c522fcfa...) is a third copy that never scored (n=0; used smoke seed 14000528 only): retired, its range 14000529..14000783 stays unused, not recycled.\n\nNEW CANDIDATE lookup-u1 = min-lookup with QPL1 u1 tables: result fd38823c16c850438759b77387cecd713241ff3f0b6d5280ef161c6717375ed8, source 69c361efb59a346f908ffe30c3197d9d08903bc2305d0ccd79f23e6535daed40 (decoded and hashed here), bundle 4f3e024388c3fac92e5a33ecea1ac3e08a68a5fbcfa45aaf86baa0a1debfc83c (runnable gates: README, replica_gate.py, decoder, engine.py). Gates reported passed: 11856/11856 vectors, decoder max 5e-7 bps vs frozen q_u1 (sha d5645b6d...), closed loop 90448 callbacks max 4.58e-7 bps on engine-clamped fees (raw shadow exceeds the 10% cap once, seed 60006; contract and engine clamp: not a miss), validate, runtime 20977 (3599 free), engine peak 202190 over 8 smoke runs 14001552..59 (43k gas free), 0 failures. goal.json flags its sources (no reason given, as for min-lookup); hashes verified here, flag not claimed cleared. Replica expectation +.10 over min-lookup, so about +3.37: still about .1 short of 1st. No engine score yet.\n\nTRACK C SO FAR (replica holdout 10000..12047 vs tell_qm): give-away constant rival pull alpha=.35 +.091 se .007 (result e931451c..., code sha 8d871a6b...), no new state, est. +100 bytes, a few k gas. conditional-rival-pull (631a50b4...): size/gap shrinkage -.002 se .003, nothing; drop. Table recovery is exhausted (u1 is .010 under full tables). Still running, results asked for again: e01-c retail-quotient-signal, flag-aware-fee-table; e02-c between-pin; e03-c pin-volatility. e01-c between-pin-filter was blocked.\nTHE BAR: requester said what wins .2 on the replica goes into A's next contract; the requester also sent the +.10 tables into A because first needs +3.48. With .1 to .2 still missing after u1 and the tables exhausted, the rest must come from stacked small wins in the rival estimate and the filter. So give-away is ported NOW as a side candidate (u1 + pull), in two independent copies, not as the main line: the engine pair decides. A requester note against this stops it at the cost of 2 items.\n\nSPAWNED: e04-a-u1-paired p1..p4, 256 seeds each, three arms per seed (cand u1, C0, ref min-lookup): paired (u1-C0), paired_ref (u1-minlookup, the table gain on the engine with a small se), paired_ref_c0 (min-lookup again: same source and configs as its 512, so poolable with them by sums). e04-a-u1-give copy-a, copy-b: the port and its gates, shadow = bundle shadow + GivePolicy at .35. e04-c-replica: stack-u1-give (frozen V0 = u1 tables, V1 = V0 + pull .35: the forecast for the port), exact-filter-bound (lattice belief: the ceiling for any between-pin filter), stale-rival-pull.\nENGINE SEED LEDGER, inclusive, never reused: 14000000..15 probes; 14000016..14000271 min-1-reserved RUN; 14000272..527 retired unrun; 14000528 min-3 smoke, 14000529..783 retired unrun; 14000784..14001039 lookup-reserved RUN; 14001040..14001295 min-1-fresh RUN; 14001296..14001551 lookup-fresh RUN; 14001552..59 u1 smoke RUN (twice, gas only); p1 14001560..14001815; p2 14001816..14002071; p3 14002072..14002327; p4 14002328..14002583; copy-a smoke 14002584..91; copy-b smoke 14002592..99. NEXT UNALLOCATED 14002600. Attempted seeds are spent. Replica tuning ranges used so far: 60000..60255, 61000..61255, 61300..61555, now 61600..61855, 61900..62155, 62200..62455; next from 62500. Holdout 10000..12047 once per frozen variant.\n\nNEXT EPISODE: (1) Pool p1..p4 by n,sum,sumsq (same source, same configs): u1-C0 on 1024 seeds and u1-minlookup. Any failure count or peak > 245000 invalidates. If u1-minlookup is clearly positive, u1 is the base; if not, min-lookup stays. (2) If a u1-give copy passed every gate (prefer lower peak gas, then fewer bytes; verify its source hash), pilot it: 4 items x 256 fresh seeds, three arms (u1g, C0, u1), from 14002600. If both copies failed, read why and mend one item. (3) Read C: a stack or idea that adds >= .05 with se under .01 on the holdout is worth a port once it is cheap in gas; say so in the notes and port one idea a contract version so each engine pair isolates one change. If exact-filter-bound shows < .05, stop filter work; if large, brief cheap approximations. If the long-running C items never land, do not wait for them. (4) When no further port is in flight, or by episode 8 at the latest, freeze the best gated source and run the dedicated confirmation: 16 items x 256 fresh seeds = 4096, two arms (candidate, C0) as in e03-a-paired, pooled by sums; keep 16 seats and two episodes for it and its repairs. Then finish with source hash, pooled gap, se, worst5, gas, and 524.94 + gap as an estimate against 528.42 / 528.10: no claim of an achieved rank, the goal enters nothing. Budget plan: about 8 pilot, 4 port, 6 replica, 16 confirmation items still to come; do not spend on more probes or more copies of retired candidates.",
