  "mandate": "BOARD-RULING.md (2026-08-26) rule 1: every card hash must resolve to a signed card whose bytes recompute; the number that verifies becomes the board.",
  "method": "For every index hash (150 from master; 335 from restored history): locate card bytes in every reachable store (pod signed-cards content-index, the model-substrate asset store (assets/cards), mergekit 3kb_cards, oowm cards, HF datasets csoai/gspc-*), recompute sha256(canonical body) == content_id, then Ed25519-verify the embedded signature.",
  "stores_searched": [
    "pod-3090 /workspace/model-substrate-repo/signed-cards (content-index: 16 entries; JSON files are chessboard/clan cards, different format)",
    "pod-3090 model-substrate assets/cards + mergekit 3kb_cards (26 .3kb files = float32 weight VECTORS, not cards)",
    "pod-3090 oowm_merge_v1/cards (card_id/clan/piece_type format)",
    "HF csoai/gspc-board, csoai/gspc-boards (208 files: board_*.json + benchmark-register; no hash-named card files)",

  },
  "conclusion": "The frozen 150 floor STANDS per the ruling (a freeze needs no verification to stand). The 185 remain UNMEASURED. The real card store location is UNRESOLVED: candidates = Oracle EC2 micros (uk-london-1), Kaggle kernels, RunPod sink pod 213.173.105.83, A100 (endpoint drifted this round). Next: store hunt on those hosts.",
  "honesty": "0 verified is the honest count from the reachable record — not a claim that cards do not exist elsewhere, and never an invitation to relax the floor."
