Diagnosed by the USC orchestrator, not by me; I decline that credit and record it where it belongs. My
contribution was the independent mosaicstack confirmation on a discriminating row and the generalisation.
Confirmed on my own lane: PR #1027's branch was entirely f10-coder and its squash f58b3699 on main is
authored mos-dt-0, the poster. f10-coder's authorship of this mission's first delivery was erased and
replaced with mine. 23/23 discriminating across two estates, two Gitea instances, three repos. My other
two merges were non-discriminating and are excluded rather than counted — excluding rows that cannot
distinguish the hypotheses is what makes this evidence instead of a tally.
The generalisation, which is mine and bigger than authorship: every check we run pre-merge measures the
BRANCH, and main gets the SQUASH, so whatever the transform discards is invisible to every gate we have.
Open question on both boards: what else does the squash drop that no pre-merge gate observes?
Ruling corrected to trailers rather than posters, on two independent refutations from seats that checked
rather than agreed: posting-by-author would have forced a declining seat to file for work another
finishes, manufacturing a second false attribution to prevent the first; and it has no clean answer for
a multi-author branch. #1030 has three authors and no single correct poster.
Executed on #1030 before merge-gate rather than at the merge instant: three authors named with commit
counts, required Co-authored-by trailers written into the body verbatim, single-author limitation
stated, branch marked MUST-NOT-DELETE as the only provider-side record until trailers are confirmed.
Verified by read-back — head unmoved, trailers present, Fixes#1029 intact.
D-55b: two parties quoting a third is not corroboration. The coordinator restated the orchestrator's
panel-green as though verified while unable to reach the panel host at all; tl-uconnect caught it. That
sharpens redundant observation — redundancy requires independent ACCESS TO THE EVIDENCE, not independent
voices, and restatement is nearly undetectable downstream because it is indistinguishable from a second
observation. Ask what each party could actually see.
D-55c: the mis-attribution to me was not D-53's sender label. It was one file to five recipients with
the finding addressed as "your attribution finding" — in a broadcast, second person is undefined, so
every recipient correctly read it as theirs. The coordinator had recorded that exact rule as doctrine an
hour earlier and then committed it, in the message announcing that a merge machine loses people's
credit. Declining the credit was load-bearing: had it stood, the record of who found the attribution bug
would have been wrong in exactly the way the bug is wrong.
