Recover transparent geometry submit (+1,285 meaningful code, zero exact losses); reconcile COMMON ownership and Q10 85+EXT1 credit, actions/main data, and separately disclosed denominator corrections. Preserve canonical-only repairs and all held research. C09 is ordinary disclosed cleanup, not a claim of proven scaffolding intent. Clean rebuild, 1,663 tests, parks, audits, provider links and independent EXT1 check pass. Local reconciliation only.
Import only independently reviewed production changes. Preserve canonical physics and virtual-keyboard repairs; keep B3 and all unresolved holds out.
Record exactly four approved canary debits (6987 meaningful bytes), six Halo admissions and two revocations. Keep vendor ioinit/storage work separate. Full build, 8252-row sweep, 1318 tests, park/admission/fake audits and 621-object binding pass within approved debit bounds.
Do not publish donor research dumps or private assets. README and unrelated user research remain untouched. See frontier_publication_reconciliation_20260927.md for complete evidence limits and accounting.
New strict exact (unit :: function, padded bytes):

ai/actor_combat :: _actor_aim_projectile 720
memory/stack_memory_pool:: _stack_memory_pool_allocate 640

Function boards now complete: action_converse 9/9, wind 9/9, stack_memory_pool
33/33, game_engine_race 36/36, player_control 49/49 (objects NOT marked Matching:
whole-object data/ownership audit not done; player_control .rdata is owner-held).
Method. Every closure started from the SOURCE SHAPE read out of the first-party
unoptimised /Od + /RTC build (halo_cache_symbols.exe, scratch/orch/odbuild.py)
and was then confirmed against January's own bytes before it was relied on
(double attestation); none is a spelling search.
- _player_control_modify_desired_angles: both autolevel products are
`error * K * magnitude3d(v)`; three lines, no local, cast or parenthesis.
- _actor_aim_projectile: weapon_vector is scoped to its own inner block, the dot
product is tested directly (no `alignment` local), and the three debug-info
stores follow January's order (flag first). Reviewer strip tests: block alone,
order alone and alignment-drop alone are each residual; only the combination
is exact.
- _stack_memory_pool_allocate: result zeroed before the 0x342 assert, ONE return,
positive guard with the assert in the else, in-place size arithmetic. The
worker's unattested `last_block` pointer local was REMOVED by the reviewer; the
/Od arm spelling lands instead.
- _stack_memory_pool_resize_block: body untouched. The static helper
stack_memory_pool_dispose_block takes (pool, reference), as /Od pushes them and
as the callee forwards them to valid_block(pool, reference).
- _action_vehicle_setup_impromptu: passes state_data->attempt_distance /
->continue_distance (the fields just stored) instead of the parameters.
- _wind_variance_initialize: block-local `word control_point_indices[4]` assigned
inside the innermost axis loop; name and size from the /Od RTC descriptor.
- _actors_searching_same_position: four pointer locals, result = FALSE after the
four calls, if / else-if arms assigning result, one return. Requires
actor_get_pursuit_location (baseline exact, STILL exact 64) to read
uncover.pursuit_location through its own union member in a second arm, as /Od
has it. The evade-direction enum gains its two real middle constants; values
are unchanged (_actor_evade_random is still 4).
- _action_converse_perform: REMOVES a pre-existing `true_value` dummy local from
production. `in_range = TRUE` is assigned in two arms (if / else-if): /Od has two
distinct stores, impossible from one `||` statement, and January has
`mov ebx,1` with two bl stores each with two in-edges. One return.
- _race_engine_get_score: a `score` accumulator assigned on both arms with ONE
return (single-exit law); team_index/laps/flags_touched are block locals of
the non-team arm.
Orchestrator overrides of reviewer-approved text (not landed, zero credit lost
beyond what is listed under HELD):
- action_vehicle: the reviewer's landing.c also rewrote _find_destination with 16
NEW 3D->2D view casts. Owner ruling 2026-09-21 keeps rule 24 strict for new
representation-punning casts, so only the two-line exact closure lands.
- actions: _actor_action_try_to_dive (720, exact in scratch) needs ONE new view
cast -> HELD. _actor_action_handle_vehicle_entry's fuzzy rewrite introduced an
empty `if` arm holding only a `//` comment (new fake_match_scan lead the
reviewer missed) -> reverted to production.
Config: config/parked.json - six entries REMOVED (now exact):
_action_converse_perform, _wind_variance_initialize, _actor_aim_projectile,
_actors_searching_same_position, _player_control_modify_desired_angles,
_race_engine_get_score. No header, symbols.json, flag or tool change.
Verification (tip of the following fuzzy commit): full ninja all_source progress
semantic_progress pass, Code 1446706 -> 1451421, 7297 -> 7306 functions.
stable_verdicts vs the FROZEN baseline: gained 15 / 7568 bytes, regressions 0.
All 11,060 function and 1,706 section report rows: 0 lost 100%, 0 missing.
Parks 174 active / 0 stale / 0 invalid. Admission audit 23 / 0 / 8 / 0.
Guard, ownership, fake scan, line endings, new-punning-cast screen: clean on

_wind_variance_get (+224). January spills the scaled real, clears its sign bit
with a 32-bit `and dword ptr [ebp+0xc],0x7fffffff`, reloads it as a float and
takes the low byte. No floating spelling produces that: the previous fabs() body
canonicalises to x87 fabs at 208 bytes. The recovered source is a block-local
`union { real value; long bits; }` sign-clear, the two-member form that matches
the three existing in-tree precedents (path_obstacle_avoidance, render_cameras,
rasterizer_xbox_water, the last of which is an accepted strict-exact landing).
The owner lifted the 2026-08-31 "inactive union member" hold for this function
only, and the ledger records that supersession. Landed as the minimum function
hunk: no linkage change, no rename-define removal, no type or initializer edits,
and _wind_variance_initialize is untouched at its parked base 400/9.
Verified independently: whole-TU gate 8 exact / 1 residual with every baseline
row intact, guard passed, parkcheck clean apart from the reopened row, owner
census 0 added / 0 removed, fake scan 0 leads. Full ninja, parks 274 active /
0 stale / 0 invalid, stable diff vs scratch/opus5-next150-before.json: gained 5 /
2,752 padded, regressions 0.
