Freshly qualify dual LRAT replay on the retained rank-1 proof, then build, independently reconstruct, and run a bounded proof-producing solve of rank-2 unique-owner profile (1,0,24,1,0,3).

proof-producing incidence/PB cube decomposition

Specialize the audited fixed-first/fixed-minimum-block incidence CNF with exact intersection-class indicators, then require a direct witness or dual-replayed LRAT under a fixed solver and proof-size budget.

Hypothesis: The rank-2 unique-minimum-owner profile (1,0,24,1,0,3) terminates within 60 solver seconds with a directly checked 30-cover or a dual-replayable LRAT no larger than 64 MiB.

Test: Run seed-0 CaDiCaL 1.7.3 for 60 seconds on the independently reconstructed exact profile CNF, then replay any terminal proof using fresh lrat-check and CakeLPR builds and reject a one-line truncation.

A solver timeout and rejected incomplete proof cannot establish unsatisfiability, while no SAT witness was emitted. The independent checker therefore correctly leaves the profile and exact covering number unresolved.

• The exact rank-2 profile CNF has 33302 variables, 186668 clauses, and SHA-256 f4affe090af0f00387ca006de89b27fe005082c48008249dc5a226e0b6177b40.
• Profile (1,0,24,1,0,3) ranks second by simple residual block-set count among the 93 necessary profiles having a unique minimum owner.
• The bounded seed-0 CaDiCaL run returned UNKNOWN after 60.178821 seconds and produced a 19508392-byte incomplete LRAT prefix rejected by both fresh proof checkers.
• The maintained exact-value uncertainty remains 30 <= C(15,6,3) <= 31.

• Krug-style certified orbit leaves -> require complete frontier plus replayed terminal leaf proofs -> the tested leaf was nonterminal, so the transfer does not yet yield a certificate.
• Rank-1 profile tractability -> predict the next-smallest unique-owner profile also terminates -> observed UNKNOWN, falsifying rank alone as a sufficient tractability predictor.
• Fixed-first q partition -> predict profiles can form an exact disjoint coordinate without second-block ownership -> not tested this epoch; retained as the next bounded synthesis.

Objective: Create and validate a disjoint exhaustive profile frontier over the complete fixed-first incidence core.

First action: Audit artifacts/epoch7-20260808/incidence-matrix-pilot-v1/incidence-matrix.cnf and its checker for complete fixed-first lex coverage.

Stop condition: Stop or redirect on a lex-coverage defect, profile gap or overlap, proof-replay failure, or no material five-second gain over the epoch-43 leaf.

• Audit the complete fixed-first-block epoch-7 source and its lex-order coverage.
• Build a disjoint exhaustive manifest for all 249 profiles relative to one fixed first block, binding the prior rank-1 exclusion and 248 unresolved cubes.
• Compile this same rank-2 profile without fixing a second block and run a five-second matched preprocessing/proof-prefix comparison.
• Do not resume serial profile solves without proof-prefix sharing, a materially different solver or encoding, or terminal matched evidence.

GPT-5.6 Sol served as principal investigator, performing experiment design, implementation, execution, deterministic audit, and interpretation. GPT-5.6 Terra delegates supplied advisory verification and prior-art memos promoted with provenance; their agreement was not validation. Deterministic tools used were CPython 3.12.3, CaDiCaL 1.7.3, GCC 13.3.0, lrat-check, CakeLPR, exact integer arithmetic, SHA-256, and the Proof Factory experiment harness. No CAS, proof assistant, cloud lab, external proof service, or human validator was used.; orchestration: gpt-5.6-sol principal with gpt-5.6-terra delegates.
