2026-08-09 (22:35): GO on W3-4. Leak guard closed first.

Before launching: closed a scoop vector. publish.sh synced the whole experiments folder to the public repo; W3-4 produces real candidate lists with coordinates. publish.sh and repo .gitignore now exclude candidates_private/ and candidate files. Claude Code instructed to write all coordinate-bearing candidate outputs into candidates_private/ and use generic labels in public outputs.
W3-4 launched (Claude Code, background): one-sector scale run on sector 63, TIC target list Tmag 11.5-14 (500-star cap for first run), TESSCut downloads, validated downhill apertures, wotan detrend, box search, PLUS the sector-edge false-positive fix validated by re-recovering TOI-4562 and K2-114 transits.
22:40 Nicolas overrode the no-scoop guard: "publish everything, no need to keep any secrets". Exclusions removed from publish.sh and .gitignore; README and program.md updated; daily publish cron updated to drop the candidate-secrecy rule. Tradeoff accepted and logged in program.md decisions.
