# Bundle C — runtime evidence

**Additional differences outside child exclusion are present; see “What else changed”.**

Both sides: fs-18, Linux x86_64 6.1.102, Node v26.12.1, OpenCode 1.18.18 / `anthropic/claude-haiku-5-5`, Python 3.12 + websocket-client 1.9.2. Before home `/tmp/lead-26983-r1/evidence-capture/20261029T150359-before-measured/home`, port 19684; after home `/tmp/lead-26983-r1/evidence-capture/20261029T151950-after-final/home`, port 19685. Each source checkout is pinned and clean; external Node load-hook observation is disclosed in the transcripts, with its exact SHA-256. Every restart has its spawn PID, actual server PID, source SHA, port, home, observer hash and UTC time above the corresponding capture. Independent fresh databases; `T3CODE_DEV_SEED=0`. No browser, rendering, viewport/theme, Diff0 or DiffT applies. Timed captures use the real UTC clock and real one-minute scheduler, with the same scripted waits and activity leases; no fake clock is claimed.


Counts are completed `branchPullRequest` service calls (L), with descendant git subprocess attempts (G), attributed through trace/parent ancestry beneath each `ThreadPullRequestServiceV2.synchronize`. A cache hit is still a lookup. F separates failed wrapper attempts from real git executions. These are scoped service counts, not whole-server/provider process totals.

The ordered driver steps, exact UTC timestamps and restart environment appear before the paired trace excerpts inside each recording. Each per-request row contains trace/span IDs, branch attribution, discovery/validation counts, subprocess arguments/status and raw original service span objects.

## R06 — settled missing automatic PR references

| Measured interval or event | Before [37fbefd](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/commit/37fbefd147197fab9d88f9c120560c3f21b52cfc) | After [45c1162](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/commit/45c1162b91872e5e7a7ddd7843b24364caca0f4d) |
|---|---|---|
| Seeded startup: distinct root, fork and child | 3 L / 60 G | 2 L / 40 G |
| Following eligible minute, null detection completed backfill | 0 L / 0 G | 0 L / 0 G |

## R07 — three settled saved automatic PR references

| Measured interval or event | Before [37fbefd](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/commit/37fbefd147197fab9d88f9c120560c3f21b52cfc) | After [45c1162](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/commit/45c1162b91872e5e7a7ddd7843b24364caca0f4d) |
|---|---|---|
| Seeded startup | 0 L / 0 G | 0 L / 0 G |
| Following eligible minute | 0 L / 0 G | 0 L / 0 G |

## R09 — archived fixtures

| Measured interval or event | Before [37fbefd](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/commit/37fbefd147197fab9d88f9c120560c3f21b52cfc) | After [45c1162](https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/commit/45c1162b91872e5e7a7ddd7843b24364caca0f4d) |
|---|---|---|
| All records archived: empty active snapshot startup | 0 L / 0 G | 0 L / 0 G |
| Following minute | 0 L / 0 G | 0 L / 0 G |

Saved-reference snapshots show automatic `branchPullRequest.number:26983` on distinct root/fork/child, settled through public RPC. Explicit links are not the oracle. R09 unarchive/deletion controls continue in D.


## What else changed

Settled-missing startup git work follows excluded child work (60→40); next minute remains zero. Saved-reference and archived startup/minute counts remain zero. The PR discovery preparation and saved-reference evidence also appear in D, including its other measured count differences.

Synthetic IDs, provider transcript wording, real UTC timestamps, process IDs and scratch paths differ naturally. Same normalized fixture data and public actions are compared. Earlier after pilots are excluded from acceptance and retained separately.

Complete non-equal request-count inventory for these recording windows (including setup and provider boundary requests). An absent side means no corresponding request in that phase window; it is not silently treated as zero. The JSON inventory retains exact timestamps and span IDs.
