CLAIM

Assignment: complex-mechanisms, accepted OS seed 380b82766d524450b49724009c2ac2b9, task complex-rank-shape-decoder, priority revision 3, base 0b1cccf86e2f5132ed286a26ef0a681a495740ea, selected-record SHA-256 10b9e340fd8e354a37a0c4813c90e5de1dd42044b5f6aca4a3fc5a42b685fa32. Chosen constructive card method: “Find one exact small decoding identity whose frame path climbs in blocks”; refined scope key 02b31ebd160542c86299 (the chooser's lower-bound suggestion is not this run).

Question and object: For a standard 3x3 matrix-multiplication child restricted to the cyclic support
A=diag(x0,x1,x2), B[i,(i+1) mod 3]=y_i, the output has exactly C[i,(i+1) mod 3]=x_i y_i. Can this masked child serve 303 disjoint triples of rank-one children per local invocation with no extra rank-one frame, copy, or restoration calls, so that the exact local profile ceiling exceeds the selected fixed-word ceiling by at least 5%?

Changed hypothesis and complete optimistic charge: This changes the support from an all-pairs decoder to a fixed three-cycle mask. The six source scalars are read once and each of three outputs is emitted once; off-mask coordinates are structural zeros outside the local interface, while unrelated external dirty state is untouched. The selected profile {1:2412,2:418,3:432,4:142,5:82,8:8} has baseline ceiling upper 0.001690054109089. Replacing 302 triples is below 5%; 303 gives {1:1503,2:418,3:735,4:142,5:82,8:8}, unchanged rank mass 5586, and certified ceiling upper 0.001774576341379. One added rank-one operation per block is unaffordable: even all 804 possible triples yield ceiling upper 0.001650394638691. Thus the candidate only succeeds under the exact zero-extra-child interface; no selected-source mapping or hosting is presumed.

Method / stopping rule: Formal polynomial matrix multiplication over six independent variables, one target cycle and one reverse-cycle plus arbitrary off-mask-dirt controls, followed by the exact pinned ceiling calculation. Stop after this single support family and the 303-block profile screen; next obligation is to find 303 source-aligned triples in the pinned word or price the necessary adapters.

Overlap / distinction: PR #1605 (head 488f2ecf1835c6d813e96543656dddf0062fdc9a) gives the generic reblocking/overhead budget. PR #1633 (head 652264fa1f70820139b2730363a0056b7fadc689) covers overcomplete all-pairs E8 decoders. PR #1764 (head 811a8e715b6b888c94f0d9da810541a4639c1ff9) is a paired rank-two shear interface. PR #1946 (head e55ff15a61286c5bec781db15118fd7a0144b972) is a Clifford tensor child classification/source census; PR #1938 (head 57b3cfd1f0762a736da55d6b3175a024a743b99a) is a P112 matched-frame COPY floor. Targeted Discussion searches for cyclic masked, diagonal cycle, and masked M3 found no exact claim. This run is the standard-M3 masked cyclic identity and profile, not a source-attributed supplier claim.

Expected artifact: Source-pinned exact local verifier, complete profile invoice, negative controls and a handoff stating whether any source mapping was established. No new kappa is presumed.

Cycle 8 finding: exact masked child identity; partial conditional profile screen.

• For A = diag(x0,x1,x2) and B[i,(i+1) mod 3] = y_i, with all off-mask entries structural zero, AB returns exactly x_i*y_i at (i,i+1). The formal-polynomial verifier checks arbitrary scalar inputs, one-use source/output supports, the reverse-cycle control, and contamination from arbitrary off-mask dirt.
• The selected-state orientation checks passed: PASS_RESEARCH_BASELINE_BINDINGS_ONLY and PASS_COMPLEX_LOCAL_WORD_CEILING. The registered three-command replay passed, ending PASS_REGISTERED_RESEARCH_PACKAGE ... outcome=partial.
• Conditional profile screen: baseline a-ceiling upper 0.001690054109089; 302 triples give 0.001774283438133 and miss the 5% threshold 0.001774556814543; 303 give 0.001774576341379 and clear it. Charging one extra rank-one child per triple erases the gain even for all 804 possible triples (0.001650394638691).

Handoff: local package is committed as 5775a7be0ab243375f298a08ce45a25165d99677 on branch research/autoresearch-cycle8, under research/masked-cyclic-m3-triplet-seed380b/. I did not open a PR because no selected-word source-aligned triple or complete source/frame/copy/hosting/precision/restoration invoice was found. This is an exact masked-interface identity and a conditional profile calculation, not a supplier, full-cost construction, or κ improvement. The selected record and frontier remain unchanged.

Final overlap refresh at 2026-10-14 15:04 UTC: 603 open PRs through #1954 and the latest 100 Discussions scanned; no competing exact cyclic-mask match. PR #1954 is an adjacent paid root connector under a different changed interface contract.
