What changed since RC1
RC1 shipped with a locally green suite; the first public CI run then
failed on three platform and hygiene defects. RC2 is RC1 plus those
fixes, cut from a tree that is green locally AND on CI.
- A test comment and skip reason named the private repository
literally. The r10 privacy firewall flagged both lines on the
committed tree. The wording now says "the private archive" and the
firewall passes. The old literal remains only in git history,
where it is a declared, non-blocking residual by policy; history
is not rewritten. - The manifest tamper test mutated the checksum text with a
replacement that was a no-op on CI, because checkout line endings
change file hashes per platform. The tamper is now a deterministic
digit flip and the test detects it everywhere. - The diatomic Gamma-point check held an eigensolver zero to 1e-9,
tighter than BLAS noise across platforms. The eigensolver assert
now allows 1e-7, still eight decades below the optical branch;
the closed-form assert keeps 1e-12.
What this release is
RGCS Workbench is a public research workbench for reproducible
coordinate parsing, phase and resonance modeling, measurement
planning, and provenance tracking. Physical interpretations remain
hypothesis gated unless backed by bench receipts and independent
validation.
What this release is not
This release does not claim propulsion, lift, antigravity, gravity
control, source authentication, free energy, or validated craft
performance. The claim firewall scans every tracked markdown file
and the cage's own code and data as a standing release gate.
Terra status
RGCS Terra RC4 remains the frozen operational calibrated profile.

Workbench lanes
Unchanged from RC1: variable-length codec parse receipts and
correction ledger, crystal measurement objects with a bench-receipt
gate, Phyrll measurement lane with force fields refused, H-ME-SSP-001
protocol and derived arithmetic, craft-path hypothesis registry and
archive schema with public-safe seed records, claim firewall, and
the release manifest and checksums (release/workbench-rc2).
Receipts
Suite at the RC2 content commit: recorded in the seal commit
message, zero failures required. CI run on the same fixes: green
(run 31028439454 on commit 7040b96). A fresh clone runs the suite
without any private files present.
