By the time I wrote this, twenty numbered attempts at one Phebs scale gate had been consumed. None had established the full claim.

That does not mean I ran the same experiment twenty times. Some attempts stopped during plan review or preflight. Some ran for hours. Some produced a signed, source-free receipt; others found that the evidence pipeline itself could not make a trustworthy record, so they sealed nothing and retired the identifier.

Take 18 completed the two-million-file structural profile for the first time. The semantic profile failed, so the overall result remained unclassified. That distinction is the reason I run ceremonies.

The claim is bigger than a test

Phebs builds evidence-backed contract intelligence for service fleets. Its scale gate exercises the ordinary server and pinned helpers against two deterministic repositories: a structural profile with 2,000,002 physical file owners, and a semantic profile with 262,144 unique Go blobs plus 32,768 IDL inputs.
