The Decoder's audit of their own corpus found four refuted claims standing --
including one they had corrected to me, agreed with, and written a METHOD entry
about, without landing it for a full iteration. A hand audit finds what is there
on the day it runs; it does not stop the next one.
check-claims is a register: every occurrence of a refuted claim must carry an
explicit [refuted] sentinel within 400 characters. It found four more unmarked
occurrences than my manual pass had, including one in authored/audio.json.
The marker is a sentinel rather than a keyword because the first version's every
failure was a quotation inside a correction whose wording lacked the keyword. The
temptation was to widen the window until they passed -- tuning a threshold until
the answer comes out right, in the tool built to catch that. 21 quotations marked
by hand; proved it fails by removing one.
Also fixes the Decoder's other finding in my corpus: BLOCKED's voice row had a
struck heading with three sentences below still asserting in the present tense.
