 - HFA-S2, if opened, copies the selected S1 hidden rate mechanically and does
   not select on intermediate validation accuracy.
 
+## Audited outcome (2026-07-22)
+
+All three HFA-S1 trajectories are finite and test-free. Validation accuracy
+increases monotonically over the frozen hidden-rate grid: `39.64%` at 0.01,
+`41.58%` at 0.03, and `43.52%` at 0.1. The selected 0.1 run has early-third
+teaching alignment `0.040406`, zero causal queries, 267,904 fixed feedback
+parameters, and estimated work `2.4242e13` MACs.
+
+The selected endpoint exceeds matched DFA by `6.36` points and the failed-v1
+short SDIL endpoint by `1.54` points, but misses the preregistered 50% HFA-S2
+threshold by `6.48` points. Status is `selected_full_closed`; the 200-epoch HFA
+run is not launched, no extra HFA setting is allowed, and CIFAR-10 test remains
+untouched.
