    "Reviewed TokenPrint documentation and the local Hiro inference client to assess whether model inspection could complement existing experiment evidence.",
    "A bounded, optional inspection adapter is plausible. Compatibility and diagnostic benefit have not been demonstrated.",
    "Recorded TokenPrint as a deferred idea in the existing Research Map, waiting for suitable GGUF/llama.cpp internals inspection."

        "TokenPrint documents architecture views, token probabilities, recorded traces, attention inspection and intervention APIs, with features varying by backend.",
        "Its README explicitly states that the GGUF/llama.cpp path does not expose per-layer activations, and attention weights do not establish causal influence.",

        "Preserved the distinction between the previously reported discovery limitation, the blocked blind replay and unassessed Jev applicability. Original forensic artifacts were not reverified.",

    "Wait for real internals inspection on Hiro's actual GGUF/llama.cpp model/backend. Basic GGUF inference alone does not meet the condition. Compatibility triggers review, not automatic execution."
