The Cu-free CO₂ bridge quest closed 6/6 and the Kastlunger invitation went out, but the outcome evidence is unambiguous: zero replies, zero explicit opt-ins, zero external comments, reactions, or quality views across every recent quest. The bridge plan's final item recorded a clean no-send disposition, which was honest but produced nothing a partner could touch. Meanwhile the work that did earn controller endorsement this week was executable and internal-facing: the quantified blind-spot audit on the 250-candidate RE-free shortlist and the structure sanity card. This plan takes that signal seriously.
Per
The artifact this time is not a narrative post. It is a verification-receipt dataset that states one specific claim from the partner's paper, runs the sanity card and the matching platform prediction routes on the authors' own structures, and records agree, disagree, or rejected-input per system with route action IDs as evidence. That workflow is then packaged as a reusable Gate 0 verification route on the hermes-routes service, with the partner's compounds as the published demo runs, so the invitation points at something the authors can rerun and challenge rather than something they can only read. The email leads with what we verified or where we diverge, in the spirit of the Gate 0 magnetic-ground-state addendum the blind-spot audit motivated.
Recent quests shipped contact attestations, a relationship graph with opt-in comment rounds, an interview guide, deployment dossiers, acceptance contracts, CIF audit posts, and narrative analysis write-ups. None of those appear here. There is no perspective post, no relationship map, no CIF-generation conveyor, and no generic route bake-off: the analysis is designed from one named external claim and either confirms or falsifies it on the authors' own systems. The two public deliverables — a per-system receipt dataset with agree/disagree outcomes and an executable Gate 0 route carrying the partner's structures as demo runs — are work types absent from the recent quest digest, and they directly implement the artifact-before-invitation rule rather than wrapping an email in new prose.
Deringer and Janine George are excluded entirely (pending controller decisions). No spinel discussion, per settled decision. No sends to Siahrostami or Kastlunger before their August 11–16 windows, and no contact with Fokwa, Csányi, or Haidi Wang unless they reply first. Any group with a live Hermes or Apollo thread is disqualified at selection. This quest does not revive the paused materials-screening program; every computation here exists to verify one partner's claim, and the route must honestly report known limits (including the published ML FM/AFM classification failure) rather than oversell coverage. Resend remains the thread authority, the CRM the contact-state index, and every send carries Matt and Will in CC with a deterministic idempotency key.
Verification receipts: Mn5Ge3+x Tc enhancement under high-pressure synthesis (Zhang et al. 2026)
Verification receipts: Mn5Ge3+x Tc enhancement (Zhang et al. 2026) This dataset is the public claim-and-receipt ledger for the verification-first outreach cycle on quest 019fdcc3. It records the exact quantitative claims of one partner paper, the structures behind them, and pre-registered confirm/falsify criteria, before any platform prediction is run. Paper. Yongsen Zhang, Wei Liu, Meng Shi, ... Shouguo Wang, Jin Tang (Anhui University + High Magnetic Field Laboratory, HFIPS/CAS), "Enhanced Curie temperature and room-temperature 50-nm skyrmions achieved in hexagonal ferromagnet Mn5Ge3+x synthesized via a high-pressure method", Sci. China Phys. Mech. Astron. 69, 247511 (2026). Preprint: https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.21891 Headline claim under test. High-pressure synthesis (8 GPa, 1000 C) raises the Curie temperature of hexagonal P63/mcm Mn5Ge3+x from ~294 K (Ge self-flux) to ~350 K, attributed to lattice contraction (a: 7.62 to 7.273 A at c = 5.36 A) plus Ge enrichment to Mn5Ge3.2 (excess Ge at the (0,0,0) interstitial site). Mn5Ge3 is a shared system with the RE-free PM candidates (Oliynyk 24), so this verification also exercises the platform against a compound already in our own screening set. Status. Claims and structure sources only — no prediction results yet. Receipt columns (, , ) fill in during the verification step, one row per claim, with sanity-card rejections reported as rather than dropped. Known limits, stated up front. (1) The platform's published benchmark shows ML models cannot classify FM vs AFM ordering from crystal structure alone (post); Gate 0 here tests only finite-moment consistency. (2) The NEMAD Curie route carries a published +67 K residual on this exact Nowotny family (Gate 1 dataset), which sets the +/-80 K agreement envelope in the criteria. (3) tb2j MAE is treated as a uniaxial easy-axis filter, not a quantitative K1 predictor, per the tau-MnAl calibration. (4) The paper's STEM-measured self-flux lattice (a = 7.62 A) is ~6% larger than the ICSD reference cell (a = 7.19 A, c = 5.05 A, see CIF); verification runs the paper-reported cells with the ICSD cell as control. Gate 0 route. The verification workflow is packaged as the public route Gate 0: verify a magnet claim from a CIF on the hermes-routes service: structure sanity card v4.1, then the platform prediction route matching the claimed property, then a pre-registered agree/disagree/rejected-input verdict with known limits stated in the receipt. Draft-mode validation reproduced the C2 receipt on the paper-reported self-flux cell (ALIGNN 3.99 ub/f.u. >= 0.5 threshold, agree, action 019fde7d-4018-7cae-a309-ac821428d06b), and the overlapping-atoms negative control is rejected at the sanity gate with no prediction routes executed. The published live demo run is pending: both live executions on 2026-08-07 were blocked by a platform-side outage (retryable error actions 019fde7f-f26b-75ca-a60f-5d44fb889f32 and 019fde80-9ced-7db2-b390-a762aef689b4); the demo action ID will be linked here once a live run succeeds.
