Strategy and discriminatorredundant implied-bound audit
Bind each cap to one exact nonedge-pair row and the other twelve triple-coverage lower bounds using sum_z c_abz=3 lambda_ab.
Hypothesis: At least one of the fifteen q=6 neighbor-triple caps c_{i-1,i,i+1} <= 3 removes a primary assignment from the canonical 15-cycle exact-pair leaf.
Test: For each cycle vertex, reconstruct its nonedge neighbor pair, exact residual pair target, and twelve other coverage lower bounds; retain only if the cap is not already implied.
RationaleFor a cycle vertex p with neighbors a,b, ab is a skeleton nonedge, so lambda_ab=5. The thirteen c_abz sum to fifteen and are each at least one; the other twelve force c_pab<=3.
Claims requiring scrutiny- All fifteen constraints c_{i-1,i,i+1}<=3 are implied on the hash-bound canonical 15-cycle, root-31 exact-pair leaf.
- Adding them as semantic restrictions eliminates zero primary assignments on that leaf.
- The predeclared nonzero-delta gate failed, so no solver comparison was warranted.
Evidence and scope- Producer returned cycle_rows_checked=15, guards_implied=15, semantic_delta_guards=0, primary_model_delta=0, solver_ab_gate_met=false.
- Independent checker reconstructed 445 coverage clauses and fifteen pair rows, rejected five mutations, and returned valid=true.
- Fresh regeneration matched result.json and independent-check.json byte-for-byte.
- sha256sum -c artifacts/cycle15-triple-cap-semantic-audit-20260812/manifest.sha256 passed.

Independent checkercheck_cycle15_triple_cap_semantic_audit_v1.py independently rebuilds the 15-cycle, 3002 residual variables, 445 coverage clauses, and fifteen exact pair rows.

Cross-domain transfers tested- Fixed-point q=6 triangle classification -> predicted a new cap on no-triangle leaves -> cap already implied by exact pair rows plus coverage, falsifying the transfer.
Established facts- Every neighbor-triple cap c_{i-1,i,i+1}<=3 is implied on the saved canonical 15-cycle exact-pair leaf.

Continuation checkpointObjective: Find a bulk invariant on the 91-class defect-ten plateau.
First action: Freeze the 91 representatives and write a count-only link-profile, pair-excess, and uncovered-triple signature protocol with an independent checker.
Stop condition: Redirect if all classes have globally admissible signatures, the checker disagrees, or the map supplies no class-level prediction.
Next moves- Keep the semantic q-bin guard transfer closed and skip its solver continuation.
- Compute structural signatures on the 91-class defect-ten corpus before further constructive BFS.
- Retain certificate-producing normalized branches in parallel, but require a replayed proof pilot before scale-up.
