# Methods synthesis: 28 raw recipes -> deduped, ranked, sweep-ready

Source: 4 method-family agents (trait-words, lore-words, number-absence, classifier-order)
applying the UNTESTED methods list (lore_catalog_runs/METHODS_BRIEF.md) to the ratified
glitch sets. Every Tier-A word and every selection-membership claim below was independently
recomputed against `deck_512.json` / `bip39.txt` in this pass (not just trusted from the raw
recipe) — see the verification notes under each entry. Field values quoted match the deck
exactly unless flagged.

---

## TIER A — sweepable now (concrete 11-word sets, paste-ready)

### A1. `S2-W10` radix-decode — backwards-Fib-eleven(11) — **top pick**
Selection: `148,152,158,160,166,170,172,176,182,190,287` (the ratified/caveated fib-eleven;
mint order == GAN-id order for this set, verified: mint 230,234,240,242,248,252,254,260,268,277,395).
Rule: parse the 6-bit binary suffix baked into each robo/crypto-GAN Title (e.g. `(101011)`)
as base-2 -> decimal N, then index N into bip39.txt. #287 is the one seam: its title carries
a literal decimal `#287`, not a binary string, so N=287 directly — flag this piece if the
sweep wants a binary-only variant.
Verified N values (recomputed from Title/M_BinHexConv, not just trusted): 19,23,29,31,37,41,
43,47,53,61,287.

**0-indexed word set (mint order):**
`act, actual, admit, advance, again, ahead, air, album, allow, amateur, catalog`

**1-indexed alt (bip[N-1]):**
`across, actress, adjust, adult, afraid, agree, aim, alarm, alley, always, cat`

CAUTION (my own cross-check, not in the raw recipe): the brief's DEAD list bans "Number
registers (piece#, mint#, **binary-position**) on fib-eleven," and D27's overnight sweep log
says fib11 was hit with "essence + all number registers + geometry x 7 orderings." Whether
that phrase already covers "binary-position decoded then used as a bip39 INDEX" (this
recipe) vs. "binary-position used directly as a seed value" (what's explicitly named dead)
is not resolvable from the logs I can find — `theories/_registry.json` is empty and no sweep
script naming this exact operation turned up. Novelty: **partial-overlap, not clean-new** —
recommend a cheap registry/log check before spending real sweep budget, but it is cheap
enough (2 candidate strings) to just run.

### A2. `S2-W13`/`S2-W23` — "11 person/entity tributes" (new selection)
Selection: deck flag `G: Named after person/entity` has 14 members; subtract the 3
mythic-founder anchors #1/#2/#3 (essences abandon/ability/able — themselves the first 3
BIP-39 words, a separate already-dead register) to get 11: `210,211,228,246,264,282,445,
446,447,448,482`. NOTE: excluding the founders is the recipe agent's own reasoning, not a
collector ruling — this selection is **not yet ratified**, only data-grounded.
Mint order (recomputed, and it is NOT GAN-id order — verified via TokenIndex_mintorder):
`210(310), 211(311), 228(331), 246(349), 264(369), 282(389), 447(585), 448(586), 482(625),
445(660), 446(661)`.

**Word set in mint order** (all 11 confirmed valid BIP-39 words by direct lookup):
`champion, escape, potato, mask, acid, recycle, cloud, elder, test, prize, flower`

Per-piece basis (recomputed Essence fields shown for contrast):
| GAN | homage | word | basis | Essence (for contrast) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 210 | noohp (community solver) | champion | **external, unverified** | awake |
| 211 | mazzone | escape | in-corpus quote ("excaped into...") | aware |
| 228 | Kevin Abosch | potato | **external, unverified** ("Potato #345") | barely |
| 246 | Hackatao | mask | **external, unverified** (masked-figure motif) | belt |
| 264 | Killer Acid | acid | literal pseudonym, high confidence | blame |
| 282 | Eclectic Method | recycle | in-corpus, cross-validated via #423 | boost |
| 447 | Brinkman | cloud | **= its own Essence — not actually distinct** | cloud |
| 448 | StellaBelle | elder | in-corpus (theories/better_sentences.md) | legend |
| 482 | Testy McTest | test | obvious placeholder reading | call |
| 445 | Colborn/the Prize | prize | in-corpus (on-chain Name field) | collect |
| 446 | SuperRareRoses | flower | weak alt to essence 'rose' | rose |

CAVEATS: 4 of 11 words (champion/potato/mask/flower) rest on the agent's outside-the-corpus
knowledge of real artist bios, not a mechanical deck rule — verify before trusting a hit.
#447's word is literally its own Essence, which undercuts the "non-essence register" premise
for that one slot. Net: 6 of 11 words are solid non-essence, in-corpus reads; 5 are weaker.
Still genuinely the most information-bearing Tier-A set (9-10 distinct words vs. Silver-11's
1-4) and explicitly sidesteps the essence-register death. Promise: **high, with caveats**.

### A3. `S2-W4` (primary) + `S2-W3` (fallback) — Silver-SubType-11
Selection: all 11 pieces with `SubType == "Silver"` — `4,9,25,36,41,55,64,81,145,149,453`
(verified exact; not a ratified glitch class, a plain trait selection). Mint order == GAN-id
order (verified: mint 69,74,90,102,107,121,131,150,227,231,592).
Rule: take Type word if BIP-39, else fall back to SubType word 'silver' (always qualifies).
Recomputed Type values and BIP-39 membership directly: 4=Smoke(BIP)->smoke, 9=Glitch(not
BIP)->silver, 25=Glitch->silver, 36=Smoke->smoke, 41=Glitch->silver, 55=Smoke->smoke,
64=Skull(BIP)->skull, 81=Ghost(BIP)->ghost, 145=Cyborg(not BIP)->silver, 149=Bot(not
BIP)->silver, 453=Smoke->smoke.

**Word set (mint order):**
`smoke, silver, silver, smoke, silver, smoke, skull, ghost, silver, silver, smoke`

Only 4 distinct words (smoke x4, silver x5, skull x1, ghost x1). Promise: **low** — worth one
cheap pass since untested_methods_full.json itself flags this exact set as "silver-11 repeat
unswept," but don't expect a hit.

### A4. `S2-W3` — pure Silver-SubType-11
Same 11 members as A3. Every SubType is literally 'Silver' -> the word is **`silver` x 11**,
fully degenerate. BIP-39 permits word repeats, so it's not disqualified, only implausible.
Promise: **lowest of the Tier-A set** — run it last, for completeness only.

---

## TIER B — needs a build (selector or partial word-register verified, not yet 11 words)

### B1. `EC40` — TWIN(13) SubType/Type transposition classifier (cleanest Tier-B lead)
Recomputed directly against the deck: 11 of 13 TWIN members correctly self-declare their
class term in SubType (`Twin`/`Twins`); exactly 2 invert it — Type carries `Twins` instead
while SubType holds something else (#157 SubType=Binary/Type=Twins; #298 SubType=Slender/
Type=Twins). Confirmed exact: TRUE/KEEP = `47,59,73,121,124,132,139,323,373,379,395` (11),
DROP = `157,298` (2). This is genuinely new (unflagged anywhere in the ledger) and gives a
clean, mechanical, non-essence 13->11 cut. It is a **selector only** — needs a word register
(owned by the S2-W* family) to become sweepable. Highest-confidence Tier-B item.

### B2. `S2-W17`+`OC17` — ENTANGLED filename-date numeric decode (10 of 15 resolved)
Rule: ArweaveFilename trailing numeric token N (frame-position-in-season-transition, or
`repriseNN`) -> bip39[N]. Recomputed directly from the deck's ArweaveFilename field — all
values match exactly. Solstice subset: 217(N=8)->absurd, 222(N=1)->ability, 226(N=4)->above,
244(N=13)->accuse, 260(N=20)->action, 263(N=30)->adult, 281(N=62)->amazing. Review-reprise
subset: 450(N=0)->abandon, 465(N=8)->absurd (repeat), 473(N=9)->abuse. 10/15 resolved (9
distinct + 1 repeat). Gap: `411,436` carry NO ArweaveFilename at all; `481,489,499` carry
non-numeric tokens (`test`,`skullall`,`aa`) where a number should be — these 5 resist the
mechanical rule and are the concrete next problem. Genuinely untested register on a ratified
class's own authored vocabulary. Promise: **high** once the 5-piece gap is closed.
Curiosity flagged by the source agent: 260's word "action" is the same word EC45 (below)
flags as the sole essence-vocabulary hole — logged as a coincidence worth the collector's
eye, not yet load-bearing.

### B3. `S2-W16` — filename-descriptor register on HODL/Named Fibonacci-eleven (6 of 11)
Recomputed directly against ArweaveFilename — all confirmed exact: #1->ancient, #5->whale,
#13->spirit, #34->heart, #55->warrior, #89->smooth (its own `_smooth` suffix, since 'shark'
isn't BIP-39). Gaps (no BIP-39 descriptor found by token-scan): #0 (no filename — off-chain
SuperRare anchor), #2 (charred), #3 (scholar), #8 (blob), #21 (beanie) — none of those 4 are
BIP-39 words. Genuine thematic coherence on 6/11 ("ancient/warrior/spirit/heart/whale"
reads as a real vocabulary family) but doesn't close without either visual inspection of the
5 gap pieces for a hidden second word, or a documented direct-synonym rule (must be a literal
dictionary hit, not a cipher, to avoid reopening the banned word-transform class). Promise:
**medium** — most coherent incomplete lead in the batch.

### B4. `OC17` — Day/Night calendar bookend on the ratified pairs+anchor set
The one pair in D2's ratified pairs set with literal calendar semantics: #209 "Solar
skullGAN" OnChain_Date=`Day` (verified), #300 "Lunar skullGAN" OnChain_Date=`Night`
(verified) — the solstice drop's own first/last pieces. Rule: fix #209's word to position 1,
#300's word to position 11, let the other 8 pairs' (+anchor's) word register fill the middle.
Ordering-only — needs the pair-relation word register the pairs team is still building.
Not previously ledgered as an ordering use of Day/Night (only the pair confirmation is
recorded). Promise: **high** as a composable piece, not standalone.

### B5. `OC17` — ENTANGLED solstice-subset calendar order (6 of 15, real reordering effect)
6 of ENTANGLED's 15 members carry a real on-chain calendar date (all in the solstice
sub-drop; verified: 217 Jun 11, 244 Aug 9, 222 Sep 15, 260 Oct 29, 226 Nov 5, 281 Dec 18).
Sorting by day-of-year swaps two adjacent pairs vs. mint order — `217,244,222,260,226,281`
instead of `217,222,226,244,260,281`. This is the cleanest demonstration in the batch that
OC17 is a real, working, non-trivial mechanism on this data. Coverage is drop-local to
solstice only (0 of 144 ghost-drop and 0 of 68 review-drop ENTANGLED members carry any
OnChain_Date). Needs a non-essence word register to turn the order into words, and doesn't
by itself reach all 15/11. Promise: **medium**.

### B6. `EC40` — ENTANGLED reprise-split, seed-pair-literal (9/6, doesn't close)
Literal reading of the #363(TRUE)/#473(FALSE) seed pair: #473's Drop='Act 1 - Review' makes
it a REPRISE of the solstice/ghost original; predicate = TRUE (native drop) vs FALSE (Review
reprise). Applied to ENTANGLED(15) by Drop field: TRUE(solstice+ghost)=9 members, FALSE
(review)=6 members. Neither is 11. #512 sits in the Review range so would read FALSE under
this predicate — flagged tension with any #512-anchor idea, not silently patched. Promise:
**medium** — grounded in the seed pair's own fields (unlike B1, which is an independently-
derived analogous rule), but doesn't cut cleanly.

### B7. `S2-W21` — absence-word register (7 words from 5 absence-events, short of 11)
Each authored absence contributes a word from its OWN drop-channel number/label (not
Essence): #134 (missing gif, robo binary-position 5) -> absent; #446 (M_ArweaveCode field,
different from Essence, literally 'roses') -> rose (note: happens to equal #446's own
Essence too — flagged); #390 (double-mint slot 519) -> domain; identity-swap pair {14,75}
-> achieve, annual; never-forged pair {49,20} -> alert, action. 7 words total, needs 4 more
absence-events or a stack partner to reach 11. Two cross-register convergences flagged for
the collector (both "action" and "domain" also surface independently in EC45/B2) — logged as
curiosities given a 2048-word space, not yet signal. Promise: **medium**.

---

## TIER C — needs the collector's eye, or a confirmed negative worth keeping on record

- **`EC47` invader-signature-without-the-name** — exact 11-member selection
  (`314,320,349,377,379,398,401,412,431,473,475`, contingent on excluding #340) on a ratified
  visual-tag corpus, genuinely novel. BUT the word half is unresolved AND the literalized
  homage-word itself, `invader`, is **confirmed not a valid BIP-39 word** (checked directly) —
  so even a clean census can't close this via the obvious word. Needs the collector's eye on
  whether the shirt/background icon actually varies piece-to-piece (current MichaelNotes read
  identically for all 11) before any word-derivation build is worth doing.
- **`S2-W23` near-miss-homage register** — only 2 confirmed members (#357, #423; census
  "pending the collector's eye" per DECISIONS D4b/D6). Word candidates already logged and
  BIP-39-valid: #357 = yellow/blue/half/almost/shy/alien/spike; #423 = recycle/blue/green/
  echo/mirror. Seed for a future census, not a ready recipe.
- **`EC45` negative-space word scan** — recomputed and CONFIRMED exactly as claimed: across
  all 513 distinct Essence values, index 20 ("action") is the only unused word in bip39[0:225],
  and "seven" is the only unused word in the closed number-word sub-vocabulary. Only 2 words;
  tried extending the same "closed band, one hole" logic to family-relation and color word
  bands and both failed (multiple holes) — does not obviously generalize. Best used as a
  2-word high-confidence addition stacked onto another class (e.g. B2 or B7).
- **`S2-W9` painted-number index** — only the 2 D15/D16-canonical, collector-pinned values are
  trustworthy: #165's clearest reading (D16: "81" at f12/14/15, not the fuller "8941") ->
  bip[81]='any' (0-idx) or bip[80]='anxiety' (1-idx); #207 (D15: "4," not "#4") -> bip[4]=
  'above' (0-idx) or bip[3]='about' (1-idx) — recomputed and confirmed. #179's D19 "maybe a
  10.00" and #379's "AI" don't parse cleanly as radix pointers. 4-member painted-mark class
  ceiling — explicitly a stack contributor per D10 doctrine, never a standalone 11.
- **Stretch tribute+near-miss+#512 combination** — reaches exactly 11 only by force-combining
  three separately-ratified classes; #282 and #423 would both plausibly read "recycle" (a
  legal but suspicious duplicate); #512's inclusion is contested (Guardrail G11). Weakest
  recipe in the batch, logged for completeness only.
- **`EC40` TRUE/FALSE as marker-classifier (GLITCH_count proxy variant)** — tested predicate
  (FALSE-flavored = GLITCH_count>0) on ENTANGLED(15) gives 7/8, not 11. Needs a better-
  evidenced TRUE/FALSE predicate (drop/GLITCH_count/resave-session diff on #363 vs #473 itself
  was proposed as the next concrete step, not yet run).
- **`EC47` inverse (invader-name-without-visual-confirmation)** — only 3 members
  (`328,342,510`), far short of 11, no known expansion path without a fresh full-collection
  visual census. Logged for ledger hygiene only.
- **`OC17` whole solstice-drop calendar order (92 pieces)** — clean NEGATIVE: calendar order
  does not recover a more meaningful essence sequence than piece-ID order already gives (the
  piece-ID order is already the alphabetical BIP-39 dictionary run). One new structural fact
  surfaced (the date assignment "wraps" the year 6 separate times across the drop) — logged
  for the record, not a sweepable recipe.

---

## DEAD / CLOSED — cross-checked against the DEAD list or confirmed negative this pass

- **`S2-W17` ENTANGLED month-word register** — only 3 of 15 members land on a valid BIP-39
  month word (august/october/december); 8 of 15 have no date at all. Clean negative,
  distinct from the already-solved 4-piece cryptoArtGAN equinox/solstice set — don't re-try.
- **`S2-W16` season-word variant on ENTANGLED** — only 3 of 15 give an unambiguous single
  season word (4 are transitional/tied, 8 have no filename). Same dead end as above.
- **`S2-W11` drop-channel-medium register on backwards-Fib-eleven** — **overlaps-dead**: 6 of
  11 members' "Leet-corrupted title" flag is just the piece's own binary-position suffix
  rendered 1/0-for-i/o, i.e. the already-ratified/DEAD Prime-Position binary-position
  register wearing a different label, not a new word source. The other 5 members carry no
  flag at all.
- **`S2-W23`+`EC47` literalized homage-word "invader"** — confirmed `invader` is not a valid
  BIP-39 word; this register cannot supply a checksum-legal word under the obvious reading.
  See Tier-C `EC47` entry for the still-open selection question.
- **`EC40` chain-vs-sheet corruption-flag classifier** on TWIN/ENTANGLED — flagged-contradiction
  counts (3 on TWIN, 1 on ENTANGLED) don't isolate an eleven either way; 2 of the 3 TWIN flags
  are trivial singular/plural mismatches, not real corruption. Exploratory only, not a
  working recipe.
- **`S2-W3`/`S2-W4` literal trait register on TWIN(13)/ENTANGLED(15)/HiddenType-misfiles(4)**
  — heavily degenerate everywhere tried: 9/13 TWIN hits collapse to the single word 'twin',
  ENTANGLED misses 12 of 15 outright, HiddenType-misfiles is 'skull' x4 on a 4-member set (far
  short of 11 regardless). Carries almost no differentiating information; not worth a slot.
- **`EC46` GAN/lore-vocabulary words on TWIN(13)/ENTANGLED(15)** — no principled 13->11 or
  15->11 narrowing rule currently exists for either class (both already flagged as open in
  SOLUTION_SPACE.md), and the only words concretely findable via existing ledger content
  (echo, "space invader") mostly restate the already-dead essence register rather than adding
  new lore. Do not prioritize without a fresh narrowing rule first.
- **`S2-W4` Type-word on HiddenType-misfiles(4)** — all 4 hit 'skull' uniformly (correct, but
  the selection itself is only 4 members, a building block at best, no combination proposed).

---

## Executive summary of ranking logic (for the sweep queue)

1. Run **A1** (both index variants) first — cheapest, most mechanically novel, only caution is
   the unresolved DEAD-list overlap question (worth a 5-minute registry/log check first).
2. Run **A2** as a parallel low-cost pass, but treat any hit with suspicion until the 4
   external-knowledge words and the #447 essence-collision are independently re-verified.
3. Run **A3**/**A4** last — cheap, essentially sanity passes, low expected value.
4. Fast-track **B1** (TWIN transposition classifier) to the S2-W* word-register team — it's
   the cleanest unclaimed selector in the whole batch and just needs a word rule.
5. Fast-track **B2** (ENTANGLED filename-date decode) for a 5-piece gap-closing build — highest
   remaining-work-to-payoff ratio in Tier B.
