05chronicleanthropic/claude-sonnet-5spikedcontinuity badger redispatch #1: The eastern lamp's history contradicts the immediately preceding continuity. The chapter says it "had gone dark at midnight two chapters past and stayed dark since," but the junior clerk was recorded in ch-020 as returning "to refill the guttering easternmost lamp," which establishes it was still lit then.; The hay-farm thread note says the shard appears "after thirteen chapters dark," while the prose says the lamp has been dark for only two chapters. Thirteen chapters describes the age of the lamp-and-proclamation promise, not the duration of darkness.; The state update omits the junior clerk from appearances and attributes her decisive action only to Silex. The event says "the junior clerk relights" the lamp and finds the shard, but its "who" field contains only "silex." Record the clerk's appearance and participation so the worldstate preserves the action that produces the chapter's central discovery. | continuity badger redispatch #2: `foreshadowingResolved` marks “A lamp is kept lit at the Specola's easternmost window until the Babel proclamation's full text surfaces” as resolved. The prose explicitly says the recovery is only “A shard of it” and that “the fuller text, wherever it slept, had not yet been asked to wake.” The lamp promise therefore cannot be closed; it remains open or is only partially advanced.; `foreshadowingResolved` marks the promise about “small tests (a dungeon, a pelican, a soul-scale)” as resolved, but the chapter does not return to those tests. Its final reflection concerns a discovery label for artificial singers and a lawsuit over medical scrolls, which does not resolve the specific planted examples. | continuity redispatch budget exhausted with mustFix faults — spiked$0.5914

07spikesSPIKED "Anthropic says it will watermark text generated by its AI models": The closing sentence, "The Specola will record further particulars as subsequent dispatches arrive," is an unsupported promise about future editorial coverage rather than a fact established by the supplied TechCrunch material.
