Open questions
> DRAFT, machine-compiled, owner review pending.
From the Index
- Open questions: the OpenAI primary reports and agent logs were not available to me; Medicare technique is contested; the agent count for HF (700 vs 1,200) and model identity (IM1 vs HPIM/GPT-5.6 Sol) conflict across sources.
Excluded as unverified
MindStudio's account (wrong years, no primary links; its Anthropic/PyPI facts are independently covered in RIA-012), Andrew Yang's 'self-replicating code' claim, a claim that Ars Technica fired a reporter, any claim of Moltbook agents autonomously acting against operators. The Grok/XMTP incident (RIA-017) is included but flagged disputed.

Structural unknowns
- Whether the watch loop's screening model catches what the archives held (the replay measures archives only).
- How much of the record is selection: incidents are only here if someone disclosed them.
- Whether the eight-pattern grouping survives new cases; chapters are expected to split or merge as the delta drafts accumulate.
