## Coordinator publication checks
Independent structural validation passed. All ten script fingerprints match fresh indexed retrievals. A fresh complete three-wallet linked-account set and header token owner were checked. Submitted source and visual research remains attributed to Grok. Unperformed live controls and audio tests remain disclosed; publication is not a claim that those tests passed.
