SOURCE-BOUND PREPARATION RECORD — 18 October2026

Original research checkpoints and proof notes are preserved unchanged, with identities in evidence/SOURCE_BINDINGS.json. This package consolidates their arguments into one manuscript; it does not create three independent result families.

manuscript/tools.tex: selected-fiber rank-nullity, coloop lemma with full-core indicator, modified planar base and two-direction incidence, from the nonbinary analytic notes.
manuscript/low_dimensions.tex: dimension1/2 bases, full dimension3 case split, modified seven-point core, dimension4 cases.
manuscript/high_dimensions.tex: proper/full dependency core cases for dimension5, support-dependent dimension6, affine-independent dimension7 and Boolean3cube sharpness. Actual-manuscript review required specifying exact dependency support in the opening observation; corrected and rechecked in review/eight_review/FINAL_DISPOSITION.md. Underlying source-case arguments unchanged.
manuscript/coding.tex: self-contained proof of the known folded-Wronskian budget, exact finite conversion and conservative asymptotic folding choice. No new algorithm or code construction asserted.
manuscript/supporting.tex: direct unified proof by j=number of points outside cube affine span, so at-least13intersection cases include fewer than3actual replacements. The j2,quotientrank1,delta1 bounds4,7,11,16,16 sharpen a loose source table only; fresh reviewer checked them. Includes finite weak-duality sharpness proof for rank6family.
manuscript/introduction.tex,references.tex: exact statements, versioned primary attribution, accepted CCSZ credit/priority qualification, limitations and AI assistance statement.

Final actual-manuscript proof, support and literature audits are preserved. Some initial reviewer reports hash an earlier introduction before precise bibliographic locators were added; the final proof disposition binds all eight final source identities. The locator edit does not change theorem statements. Compilation succeeded; all11rendered pages visually inspected, and allcross-references/citations resolved. No original diagnostic scripts were changed or rerun.
