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

Model-judged curation under the estate's artifact discipline (D-BRIDGE): every profile is one line in ops/curation/waveC/source_profiles.jsonl (sha256 aa4f4d7c929b6c9aa7a48e04a9fe532164c7d676caf1a18cce28cd7cf38085c4), with closed claim kinds (identity/vantage/method/survival/reception) and closed grounds (episode/apparatus/open). Every episode quote was marker-extracted from the served text and machine-verified verbatim; every apparatus excerpt (<=420 chars, cite-never-reprint) was machine-verified against the named page of the pinned scan (ops/curation/waveC/verify_artifact.py --books); method claims quote only the profiled author's own works; a deterministic 10% blind re-review confirmed 8 and repaired 2 claims before freeze (ops/curation/waveC/REVIEW.md).

What this does not prove
  • A profile card contextualizes a witness; it does not adjudicate his reliability — reception claims stage how the record has read him, with the referee quoted, never the house's own verdict.
  • Life dates carry their confidence honestly: most ancient authors' years are calculation, not record, and the cards say so instead of faking precision.
  • An honest-open claim ('the shelf's reception is silent') is a fact about the served shelf, not about the author or the wider tradition.
  • Apparatus excerpts cite founder-owned commentary page-anchored and short; they do not make the commentary's judgments the house's own.
  • figure_id links only where the record's attestations demonstrably name the author; unlinked profiles (Thucydides, Plutarch, Suetonius) reflect homonym traps documented in REVIEW.md, not doubt about the men.
  • No attestation, event, witness, figure, work or episode row is created or modified by this wave.
