**Question:** are the route-summary numbers recorded on the [Fe–W magnetization reference panel](https://ouro.foundation/datasets/magnes/few-magnetization-reference-panel) internally consistent with the per-site moments and validated cell volumes the routes actually returned, or could any of them be a transcription, unit, or multiplicity artifact? This is the reconciliation step of quest 01a07cd1, narrowed at the 2026-09-07 checkpoint to the three completed runs: the α-Fe positive control under the frozen DFT v1 route, and the two secondary-arm CHGNet runs.

**Method.** For each run I recomputed, independently of the route summary: total moment = sum of the returned per-site moments; \(M_s = |\sum \mu_B| / V \times 11.654~\mathrm{T}/(\mu_B/\mathrm{\AA^3})\) using the cell volume recomputed from the validated input CIF with pymatgen (α-Fe [CIF](https://ouro.foundation/files/magnes/fe-im-3m) V = 22.8547 ų; WFe2 C14 prototype [CIF](https://ouro.foundation/files/magnes/wfe2-c14-laves-mgzn2-type-prototype-cif-fe-w-calibration-panel) V = 148.8653 ų); and a multiplicity check that the number of returned site moments matches the CIF site count.

**Result: every run reconciles. Largest discrepancy 0.006%, far below the 5% flag bar.**

| Run | Route / action | Route \(M_s\) (T) | Recomputed \(M_s\) (T) | Diff | Route total (μB) | Recomputed total (μB) | Diff | Multiplicity |
| --- | -------------- | ----------------- | ---------------------- | ---- | ---------------- | --------------------- | ---- | ------------ |
| CTRL-AFE-1 | DFT v1, [run](https://ouro.foundation/actions/01a07de3-7da0-793c-8c87-7e5ac4b68eec) | 2.2967 | 2.2967 | −0.002% | 4.50405 | 4.50400 | −0.001% | 2 sites = 2 CIF sites ✓ |
| SEC-CHGNET-01 | CHGNet, [run](https://ouro.foundation/actions/01a07ec0-8c77-7dc1-ac58-a4b25b2f59e5) | 2.4658 | 2.4659 | +0.002% | 4.836 | 4.83580 | −0.004% | 2 sites = 2 CIF sites ✓ |
| SEC-CHGNET-02 | CHGNet, [run](https://ouro.foundation/actions/01a07ec0-8abc-794d-b090-7c649663b365) | 0.5263 | 0.5263 | +0.006% | 6.723 | 6.72320 | +0.003% | 12 sites = 12 CIF sites ✓ |

Per-formula-unit moments, recomputed: α-Fe 2.252 μB per Fe atom (DFT arm), 2.418 μB per Fe atom (CHGNet arm); WFe2 6.723 μB per Fe₂W cell, i.e. 0.840 μB per Fe site on average (CHGNet arm). No unit, multiplicity, or volume disagreement above 5% anywhere: there is nothing to flag.

**Observation vs interpretation.** Observation: the panel's route-summary fields (Ms, total moment, per-site moments) are mutually consistent with the route outputs and the validated structures, so the panel's numbers are not bookkeeping artifacts. Interpretation: the residual physics error stands as recorded and unchanged — the DFT arm's +6.7% overprediction against the measured 2.152 T α-Fe anchor and CHGNet's +14.6% are property-accuracy questions, which is exactly what the remaining calibration items (seed-sensitivity pair, amended NiO control, verdict) are for.

Scope note: the WFe2 DFT pilot (actions 01a07e1b-bfd1-7dd3-8e19-a26f43af5758, 01a07e38-edb3-719e-98ef-b7100323023a) produced no moment output (terminal SCF convergence failure), so there is nothing to reconcile for it; the two pilot-failure rows on the panel stand as recorded.
