Processing resumed after reconciliation

Processing resumed after the interruption. A separately dated actual worker and supervisor check passed; the outcome and cache totals remain the earlier audited checkpoint.

The database interruption was reconciled using the original local plans: 378 outcomes passed exact database save/readback and journal checkpointing. The never-submitted 54-request packet was archived as an explicit operational hold with all claims and its admission shadow retained. It is not counted as saved model output. No paid request was retried. No paid request has been replayed. Worker and supervisor status observed at 19 October 2026 · 12:23:36 UTC; the separate pool snapshot is 19 October 2026 · 12:19:22 UTC. Outcome and cache figures remain 19 October 2026 · 12:15:33 UTC.

Explicit operational hold; no paid retry

The original 54-request packet was never submitted to a provider batch. It is archived outside the active queue with permanent identity/content claims and its $0.158112 admission shadow retained. These 54 records are separate from saved outcomes and are not relabeled as structural failures, scientific exclusions or successful results. These operational holds are separate from the 105 input holds. No paid replay is permitted.

All 16,155 newly audited outcomes have exact readback evidence; the earlier 378 pending DB outcomes were reconciled from their unchanged local plans.

All available 2026 source preparation

The frozen archive contains 238,226 canonical 2026 articles. All 238,121 input-clear records are now prepared locally in reusable source packets; 105 input holds remain. Prepared records include prior paid identities and duplicate content. Preparation is not submission, and this is not a count of newly billable articles.

Stored production is 19.59% of the prepared reference population. Fresh identity/content claims, exact source checks and input limits are applied before every paid request. The final paid denominator can be smaller. Scope remains MLP civic, non-disaster/non-999 articles, excluding environmental sources outside this project.

Unchanged request route and shared spending cap

One verified coordinator manages up to eight active provider batches, with one verified supervisor. The authorized route allows up to eight batches, each within a conservative 1,900,000 input-token upper bound, under a local combined 20,000,000 queue guard. All unresolved obligations remain enforced. Provider settings were not changed.

The same gpt-6-luna model, medium reasoning, 3,072 output cap, exact translated inputs and shared cached prompt remain in use. One article stays one request. No measured speedup or completion-time guarantee is claimed. Scope remains available 2026, until completion or the inclusive $500 cap.

Known submitted batches awaiting storage at the frozen audited checkpoint: 0; 0 requests remain outside completed outcome and cost totals. Uncertain submission intents: 0; these are not assumed to be provider submissions. Other unsaved active-queue checkpoints: 0.

Stored outcomes and exact database verification

This update adds 16,155 newly verified database attempts and 298 current-source checks. The 378 DB-only recovery outcomes are included once in this audit; they are not added again. Across completed audit checkpoints, the shown 46,646 stored attempts have exact database readback evidence. Only the exact outcomes included in this completed independent audit are reported as verified. Bootstrap and all three predecessor cohorts are counted once; inherited checkpoints are not counted as new results.

Structural validity checks the response contract, not semantic correctness. Failed and incomplete outputs remain immutable and traceable; they are not silently repaired or automatically retried. Most outputs have not received an individual semantic review.

Cost and cache reuse

4 completed batches retain unknown full charges for 202 stored outcomes. Those batches contain 4 preserved API errors and 2 mechanical failures; 4 responses lack usage. Known subtotals remain inside their full reservations and are not added to pending again. All 5 unknown reservations remain intact. These figures are dated local accounting, not a provider balance or available-funds statement.

Outcome and cache figures use the 19 October 2026 · 12:15:33 UTC snapshot. Shared ledger amounts were observed separately at 19 October 2026 · 12:19:30 UTC. 4 requests with missing usage are excluded from cache and token denominators. Output reasoning is included in reported output usage and is not added twice. Cache reuse does not establish semantic accuracy or guarantee future hit rates. No whole-month cost or speed forecast is inferred.

Latest bounded failure review

The 16,155 newly audited outcomes contain 345 mechanical failures and 1 API failure. Mechanical failures include 51 empty outputs at the output cap and 2 truncated returned identifiers that were rejected without reassignment. These are subsets of the failure totals, not additional outcomes. Raw failures remain preserved; no paid retries or automatic output repairs were made. This review does not establish semantic or translation accuracy.

Bounded semantic review — separate samples

The earlier first40, sample12 and sample8 reviews below are unchanged. This progress checkpoint adds no new semantic sample or review annotation.

The later sample was selected from 320 newly saved attempts at the earlier 07:21 UTC checkpoint. Its concrete issues concerned an omitted investigative trigger, a lost planned-action qualifier and conditional dialogue treated as political support. Ambiguous government relevance and trigger tagging remain adjudication questions.

The latest eight-record sample was selected from 480 saved outcomes at the 15:34:55 UTC checkpoint. Five had no concrete conflict identified; three remain for adjudication concerning a mixed domestic/foreign composite actor, attributed praise versus narrator framing and evidence specificity, and the primary election trigger versus chronology. No forced recodes or new input exclusions were added.

All24 additive review annotations were saved with exact DB readback: four first40 amendments, twelve earlier annotations and eight new annotations. They join through native source-document and original-attempt identifiers to immutable original attempts. Source text and model outputs were not rewritten.

These samples must not be combined into a corpus accuracy estimate. No statistically established worsening is claimed, and most later outputs have not received an individual semantic review. Input defects remain warnings under the user’s tolerant policy; no country or original-language exclusion was added.

Separate resumed-runtime observation

At 19 October 2026 · 12:19:22 UTC, an actual read-only check verified 8 active batches containing 432 requests under the same configuration and retained budget guards. This later pool observation is separate from the earlier audited outcome snapshot and does not verify its exact active set.

Snapshot and next steps

Frozen snapshot: 19 October 2026 · 12:15:33 UTC. This page is not a live counter. At that verified snapshot: Source dispositions reconciled for 2026-06, 2026-08, 2026-09, 2026-10. In progress: 2026-07. The available 2026 archive remains incomplete.

Continue from the actual runtime status with the immutable outcomes and explicit operational hold preserved. Preserve cache reuse, retained failures, exact database readback and the shared budget. Historical semantic samples above remain unchanged; this checkpoint adds no new scientific-accuracy claim.
