Saved curvature diagnostic after the shared source terms
Use the same twelve fixed generated probes and six saved map epochs. Preserve 27 physical and 24 source columns. Reconstruct the two original source-bound references and require complete report agreement.
For a point p, subtract J₀p and C[g(p)−g(0)] from the saved native change. Evaluate the independent source Jacobian at the reference and probe. Apply the endpoint derivative average to this remaining error only: its derivative is f′−J₀−Cg′. Do not fit coefficients, alter points, transfer old conditioned radii or interpolate maps to unsaved epochs. Reanchor g explicitly; do not assume a floating evaluation is exactly zero at the reference.
Verify an independent cubic-source/quadratic-error example, a nonzero source center, a higher-order counterexample, and missing-column/report failures before launch. Crosscheck the original shared-source residuals within the fixed 1-micrometre numerical tolerance used by the preceding audit.
Finite maximum: two identities, two references, fourteen source-Jacobian oracles, two reference source-value oracles and twelve six-epoch comparisons. Zero native calls, LP proposals, aircraft reads or observed model-fit starts. Freeze source, inputs, environment and work accounting. Use one numerical thread with other allocations reserved; cooperative wall limit 120 seconds. No retries, process signals or allowance increases. Publish sealed results only.
This is a diagnostic approximation, not a certified bound, uncertainty coverage, an aircraft error law or evidence of a scientific model preference.
