STATEMENT BINDING (Phase 3d). The coverage gate pins every constant's name,
kind and axiom cone, both directions, and none of selftest_audit.sh's nine
attacks defeat it. It is nevertheless blind to what a declaration SAYS — and
that is demonstrated here rather than argued:
Wrapping one branch of `LTLAcc.pinAccept`'s body in `id (…)` is
definitionally equal. Every downstream proof still compiles. The name, the
kind, the type and the axiom cone are unchanged. The inventory gate reports
"222 constants, environment == allowlist" — GREEN.
That edit is harmless by construction; the point is that nothing stood between
it and a genuinely vacuous redefinition of a specification. Proofs/Inventory.lean
now also emits, for every inventoried constant, its fully-elaborated TYPE, and
for every definition its fully-elaborated BODY — 266 lines over 222 constants.
Proof terms are deliberately absent: by proof irrelevance a theorem's content
is its statement. check.sh Phase 3d binds the SHA-256 and the block is
committed as AUDIT-MANIFEST.txt so a mismatch is DIFFED, not merely reported.
The existing gate is untouched, per the standing rule that the port flows FROM
this repo, not to it: INV lines are byte-identical, inventory_gate.sh is
unchanged, and all nine of its attacks still fail as before.
selftest_statements.sh replays the defeq edit as case 1, asserting BOTH that
the coverage gate passes it and that Phase 3d catches it — so if the coverage
gate ever grows to see this, the test says so instead of quietly re-labelling.
Cases 2-4 cover a hand-edited committed block, a truncated block, and a
constant inventoried without a statement.
FIDELITY PIN (unrelated, found while running the button). Phase 4 had been
failing since 2026-07-23: LIED_PIN_DIV expected 3,867 divergences between the
Lean model and the deployed consistency verifier, and observed 0. Cause is
pacta ddbb5a4, which restored the RFC 9162 2.1.4.2 Step-7 terminal `sn == 0`
condition; that one conjunct removes every divergence in the pinned
73,573-case family. KNOWN-GAPS gap 14 already recorded the closure on the day
it landed — only this constant was stale, so the button had been red for five
days with nobody running it. The pin now reads 0 with the history in a comment.
Nothing about the paper, public log entry 13, or the attested commit 172a1d0
changes; the historical divergence stays reproducible at the tagged pre-fix
commit.
KNOWN-GAPS gap 16 records what the binding does not buy: identity, not
meaning; an author who edits and re-pins in one commit is caught by review and
not by the script; and proof terms are unbound by design.
Button green end to end: ATTESTATION GREEN (Lean + fidelity).

Round-2 external reviews (GPT-5.6 + second Claude) converged on the
coverage gate being evadable (H1/NEW-1); GPT additionally proved the
kit's fidelity target could not run (H2) and the namespace-collision
attack that defeats any source-regex fix. This round adopts GPT's
required correction in full:
- Proofs/Inventory.lean: declaration inventory read from the compiled
Lean environment — every constant of every corpus module, fully
qualified, unfiltered (compiler auxiliaries and _private mangles
pinned too), with kind and axiom cone; own cone walker cross-checked
in-process against core collectAxioms (hard error on divergence).
- verification/inventory-allowlist.txt: all 218 constants pinned.
- inventory_gate.sh: fail-closed diff both directions (UNCLASSIFIED /
STALE), INV-COUNT truncation guard, exactly-one-axiom invariant.
- check.sh Phase 3b rewritten around the gate + manifest⇔inventory
drift checks + CONES⇔inventory cone cross-check (two independent
computations must agree). EXCLUDE table gone (sha256/Bytes are
ordinary audited entries now).
- selftest_audit.sh: 9 adversarial cases against the production gate
(attributed/indented/private/instance, namespace collision, smuggled
axiom, deleted decl, unmanifested Proofs/ and gen/ modules) + positive
control — all defeated (GPT release condition 2).
- M1: recursive orphan-olean guard (caught a stray dev artifact on its
first run), gen/ dead-file check, corpus-wide single-axiom pin.
- L1/NEW-2: acceptIncl_sound drops the redundant hm (derived from
hacc.1); cone unchanged.
- M2/M3: STATEMENT-MAP counts 230,271/230,016; non-vacuity guard
wording narrowed to what the guards actually certify.
- README layer table: stale L4/pin-store rows fixed (missed by both
round-2 reviewers AND the round-2 revision — found in self-review).
- KNOWN-GAPS 12 (audit-gate lineage + residual limits), 13 (round-2 kit
target not self-contained); gap 2 count fixed.
- RESPONSE-TO-REVIEWERS.md: round-3 disposition of every finding.
Kit round 3 additionally ships the complete stdlib-only import closure
of pacta.transparency (content-addressed vs pacta 3d81d53), the
clean-extraction fidelity transcript (exit 0, 230,271+230,016, zero
mismatches), the ATTESTATION GREEN check.sh transcript, and the
self-test transcript.
The live LTL remains untouched (12 leaves, root bcd15f9d…);
attestation stays blocked pending ePrint decision + author review +
explicit operator order.
