Status assessment: 2026-10-14 UTC (static build snapshot). Static activity badges and day counts use this build assessment, not a live check. Interactive finder results show their own UTC assessment day.
0 of 1 recorded windows have date-review evidence. Other rows remain unverified. Historical records are retained and are not a current-season promise.
