Draft the companion METHODS data-independent and blind, mirroring the lead-paper
SS4 discipline: methods drafted, all Results/Discussion HELD-BLIND. No confirmatory
run, no confirmatory number.
- Two standalone methods sections (paper structure left OPEN — operator editorial
call): (A) RQ2-P3 funnelling-mechanism study, header marked FREEZE-PENDING since
its prereg §10 is unsigned — pool instrument, B×alpha manipulated-IV design,
two-sided H1/H2/H3, run-level cluster bootstrap, re-worded §7 gate (cites
stage-05-rq2p3-gate-clarification.md); (B) RQ3 companion from the frozen prereg
§3/§4 — qwen2.5:3b + reproducibility caveat, churn kp=30/steps=20, frozen
RQ3-P1-perf/latency/RQ3-P2 gates, Holm-7-supersedes note.
- Intro/Related-Work deltas (unique-bridge/mix mechanism; churn-resilience +
rebuild-fingerprint motivation), reusing only grounded lead citations plus
Barton2025 from the frozen prereg's RQ3 DV.
- The only numbers written are already-produced CALIBRATION gate values, each
labelled calibration not result (RQ2-P3 dry preview mix; RQ3 churn-bites +
classifier calibration). Results/Discussion are HELD-BLIND placeholders.
HARD HOLDS: RQ2-P3 awaits §10 human freeze; RQ3 awaits operator-GO + live grid
(added-latency is live-only). Frozen lead prereg f22331a72e… untouched; no HARKing;
containment synthetic/offline, $0; worktree-only.
