A receipt records what the house consulted and what it did not establish. The open state is part of the record, not a defect in it.

What this shows

Deterministic extraction (extract-v1: proper-noun mid-sentence frequency with a capitalization-ratio gate; person/place context patterns; explicit event phrases widened by place+battle-vocabulary co-occurrence) over the W0 corpus. 715 figure, 52 event, 638 place, 187 people candidates; 26,045 attestation rows carry the exact surface forms and per-episode counts. For figures, places, and peoples the attestation sums reconcile to mention_count exactly. The 674 harvested-but-unclassified names and the 20 era phrase candidates are NOT in this database — they stay in the local ops pool (addresses.jsonl) per the unmatched-pool precedent (D-LEXICON-001) and the book-gated era plan (W3). Membership is recorded on the rows themselves (attestation.receipt_id = receipt:addresses-w1), not enumerated here.

What this does not prove
  • extract-v1 is frequency + pattern extraction — not NER and not curation; misfiled rows exist at the margins (the prototype found 'Roman' filed as figure).
  • A candidate address may merge homonyms — three different wars answer to 'Salamis', many men to 'Alexander'; splitting them is W2 curation.
  • Event attestations are place-name + battle-vocabulary co-occurrence, not verified narrations of the event; an event's mention_count counts explicit event-phrase hits only, so it will not equal its attestation sum.
  • figure_kind is 'unassigned' on every candidate — person|legendary|deity is a W2 curation verdict.
  • Mention counts are extraction-grade, not catalog-grade; no address carries year anchors until the era spine (W3) lands.
  • For a handful of very frequent addresses (>400 mentions) the prototype artifact's episode_count was ref-capped; the attestation rows here are the uncapped card catalog and are the authoritative coverage.
