## Measured from disk
| Field | Value | Source |
| --- | --- | --- |
| PID 1236954 alive | **no** (exited) | `ps`; watcher: EXIT_DETECTED 2026-09-24T05:07:18Z (= 2026-09-24 01:07 ET) |
| Accepted samples | **24000** (stopped at max_samples) | log: "Reached maximum number of accepted steps allowed (24000). Stopping." |
| Chain rows | 24001 (header + 24000) | `wc -l results/chains/v1_ede_priorA_prod.1.txt` |
| Final acceptance rate | 0.254 | log |
| converged | **false** | `.checkpoint` |
| Last R−1 (means) | **3.331783** (at 19200 accepted steps) | `.checkpoint` Rminus1_last=3.3317830007427727; `.progress`; log |

## NON-REPORTABLE diagnostics (unconverged chain; do not cite as a result)
getdist 1.7.7, ignore_rows=0.30 (16800 rows used): **ESS(H0) = 14.19**; H0 = 69.97 ± 1.18 (non-reportable).
ESS(H0) is far below the ≥100 bar; R−1 is far above 0.05.

## Hygiene
- Old watcher `path_f_watch.sh` (PID 1259649): already exited ("EXITED" logged). It only logged; it had no auto-launch logic. Nothing to stop.
- Path F files not deleted, moved, or overwritten; `cobaya -f` not used. MD5 of `.1.txt`: 5d2e2934f5c5537589374fd54182fe15.
- Language lock: no tension claim of any kind. This run supports no conclusion (not improved, null, or falsified).
