paper v0.12 + estate: one numbering, everywhere — 0-based leaf indices
Operator order: the leaf-index convention adopted this morning must be
global. Paper1 now says leaf 12 in every place that said entry 13
(intro, contributions, section 7.2, related work, conclusion, artifact
availability, Appendix B retitled 'Deployed leaf-12 scope'); the
ordinal 'thirteenth entry' survives only as a gloss. v0.12, 25pp, gate
green, Appendix B page eye-checked. Site card follows (v0.12; revision
prose de-versioned so it cannot churn), paper/README history extended,
top README says leaf 12/17/18. reinvention-outline moved to the private
control repo earlier this commit-series (moat doctrine).

paper v0.11: the paper catches up to the system it built
The freeze rationale is gone (review concluded); v0.11 describes the
LIVE deployment instead of the July snapshot:
- abstract + contributions: nineteen leaves, four Ed25519 corpora at 44
certs, the accumulator's two attestations, leaf 18 = the SLH-DSA
verify path; heads dual-signed since size 14 with the parameter set
the log itself attests
- signed-tree-heads section: the additive deterministic SLH-DSA
co-signature, ABSENT-not-failed history honesty, determinism as an
audit primitive, the closed loop to leaf 18
- new instantiation subsection 'The SLH-DSA verify path: the method on
second terrain': 11 certificates, acceptance characterization, the
no-second-semantics honesty (visible-not-correct), exact cone
enforcement, scope (mono facade + 137-case bridge, base_2b, no
signing)
- deployment/public state: 15 August 2026, root 7ee23940, twelve heads
8-19, per-leaf narrative through 18
- NEW Appendix E: the eleven SLH-DSA certificates with their exact
oracle cones — the mirror of Appendix D's Ed25519 tiers
- title: v0.11; site card + snapshot note + paper/README updated
25pp, zero unresolved refs, Appendix E render-inspected by eye; full
test suite green
