October 13 Crucible lockpick figure

  • crucible-lockpick.svg — self-contained editorial figure built by build_crucible_lockpick.py (standard library only; run from the repository root). It explains one depth step of the Crucible loop as a lockpick: a master checkpoint (tension), a CFC fanout of small c / check / q chains (pins), the native check (the click), HIT and REJECT terminals, JEV triage, master Q selection, the next checkpoint and the repair lane. The four chains and their outcomes are illustrative; the figure shows control structure, not a measured run, a severity, or a claim of quantum advantage. It contains no scripts, external images, embedded fonts, private identifiers, or research data. Credited on the figure as "Visual by Mythos 5.1".

October 10 ATT&CK and Aether research-bucket map

  • attack-buckets-v16.svg is the current self-contained editorial catalog map built by build_attack_buckets.py. Its 15 tactic names and IDs follow the MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise tactics as checked October 10, 2026. The 424 source-bank chain definitions and 18 Predator routing buckets are from the pinned private V16 registry snapshot. Most energy-profile slots remain unmodeled. The three Aether areas summarize its custom research selectors. GX Gemini CLI, GLX GitLab Duo, and AX Anthropic SDK are public case-family names only; the map contains no private chain transitions, payloads, report details, or credential material. Its cards do not imply a verified attack sequence, measured severity, or a one-to-one mapping between Predator selectors and MITRE tactics. The previous attack-buckets-v15.svg remains as a dated snapshot.

  • badge-attack-chains.svg was refreshed to the V16 chain count. The badge is a dated registry label, not a live status indicator.

  • anthropic-sdk-crucible-private.svg is a self-contained editorial card matching the Gemini and GitLab research cards. AX001 Collection, AX002 Credential Access, and AX003 Execution are parallel tactic lenses for conditional owner-controlled local results from one shared boundary. It intentionally omits the mechanism, reproduction details, secrets, third-party data, and unsupported severity claims. Its missing deployment and model-choice evidence is stated on the card and in the README.

  • predator-console.png — original Predator engagement terminal image supplied by Aether AI. Preserved byte for byte; Git blob bda259be2c83e711796f5d2b7dac124a1c8e8765. The pictured session and counters are illustrative. An earlier README and the showcase placed this image near the opening with an illustration caption.

  • aether-website-mark.svg — original Aether logo extracted from the owner-supplied capture of the defense-stack page. The SVG namespace was added for standalone display.

  • defense-stack-attack-path.svg — the same page’s inline campaign illustration, adapted for a static README with a dark background and readable node/edge contrast. It illustrates the broader operator-led service, not the restricted CLI surface or a measured incident.

  • nano-hex.png — the original Nano website asset, preserved without pixel changes. Git blob b64bdaf656ce6f94d14bd1d084119ab28f17eaea.

  • readme-hero.svg, button-*.svg, workflow-pulse.gif — custom typography and geometric UI assets prepared for this README. The GIF depicts a conceptual workflow; it is not a screen recording, live status, or hardware evidence.

  • generation-roadmap.svg, button-actions.svg, button-generations.svg — custom static vector assets for the owner-approved Gen1–4 public posture. Green denotes the existing assurance foundation; purple denotes active research; cyan denotes the gated roadmap. Arrows illustrate research direction, not achieved depth or advantage. SVGs are self-contained and contain no scripts, external images or embedded fonts.

  • tag-gen12-live.svg, tag-gen3-research.svg, tag-gen4-gated.svg, tag-private-cli.svg — local, self-contained editorial badges replacing externally hosted labels in this README. They describe the product/research posture, not automated CI, deployment or scientific-validation checks.

  • flow-gen12-actions.svg, flow-gen4-transfer.svg — static workflow cards. Gen1–2 depicts the existing locked-action journey; Gen4 is explicitly conditional. The completed CharLS figure uses the versioned filename below; flow-gen3-research.svg remains an identical compatibility copy. Each includes accessible title/description text. No scripts, external images or embedded fonts.

Original website capture and README adaptation: September 9, 2026. The console-first polish preserves the original terminal, hero and historical hardware assets. Website marketing benchmarks and illustrative counters are not combined with the separate September 6 IBM Fez compiler pilot.

September 15 public README revision

  • readme-hero.svg — updated Aether typography and cyan/purple/green geometry. The existing aether-website-mark.svg remains unchanged. The hero is a brand graphic, not a scientific measurement.
  • readme-hardware-data.svg — original vector chart generated from the existing public ibm-pilot.json. Cyan denotes ordinary compilation; purple denotes joint5. All four TV-distance bars share the same 0–0.5 axis. Gate counts and acquisition size come from that public record. The expected-energy regression, one-job scope and absence of independent confirmation remain visible inside the standalone figure.
  • tag-actions-profiles.svg, tag-gen3-private.svg, tag-hardware-pilot.svg — local editorial badges. They do not report live CI, current deployment health or independent scientific validation. The existing tag-gen4-gated.svg remains unchanged.
  • build_readme_assets.py — standard-library generator for the updated hero, hardware chart and three badges. Run python3 docs/assets/build_readme_assets.py from the repository root. It reads the existing public numerical record; it does not execute circuits, query hardware or alter research data.

That initial revision preserved the console, original Aether mark, IBM public numerical data and measurement note byte for byte. Its hardware-first placement is superseded by the Q3 milestone correction below; the console remains supporting illustration.

September 15 Q3 milestone correction

At this revision, the public README and showcase led with Aether Predator’s first Gen3 dependent-repair win: CharLS Q3 24/24, followed by the continuing quantum-advantage objective. The source is the owner-approved aggregate Q3 record and its public evidence note. The note distinguishes the producer’s private signature/replay verification from public arithmetic and figure reproduction.

  • readme-gen3-win.svg — exact aggregate tile count: 16 cyan/blue preserved passes and eight violet new passes. Tile positions are illustrative; they do not expose private case identifiers. Counts represent tests, not vulnerabilities.
  • gen3-charls-q3-completed-d5da033514a9.svg — the completed C0→Q1→C1→Q2→C2→Q3→C3 record, with Q2’s native failure preserved and only the supplied C2/C3 scores. It ends with the continuing program objective. This case is complete; Gen3 is active. The filename includes the first twelve hex characters of the figure’s SHA-256. Every current reader-facing reference uses this content-versioned path instead of the former shared image URL.
  • readme-q2-selection.svg — recorded Aer simulation counts for Q2 only. All bars share a 0–900 sample scale. Purple is the selected feasible state; cyan is the feasible alternative; gray is rejected. Counts and energies are also available in a Markdown table and JSON. This is not a Q3 histogram or hardware measurement.
  • tag-gen3-win.svg, tag-q3-utility.svg, updated tag-gen3-private.svg — static milestone, aggregate outcome and research-continuation badges; not live status.
  • readme-start-actions.svg, readme-start-q3.svg, and q3-showcase.css — original vector/CSS adaptation of the owner-supplied September 15 start-card reference. Retains dark navy, cyan/violet accents and two distinct entry points. Research stats now show Q3’s result; both links go to their specific destination. No remote fonts or scripts are required.
  • build_readme_assets.py — now rebuilds thirteen SVG files (twelve designs plus the versioned chain copy) from the approved Q3 and existing IBM JSON records using only Python’s standard library. It calls no experiment or network service. Run python3 docs/assets/build_readme_assets.py from the repository root. A changed chain produces a different filename; references must be updated and their content hash checked with that revision.

The reader-clarity sweep also restores the full Predator program description and explains C/Q, native validation, protected cases, residuals, QUBO energy and simulator scope. The owner’s screenshot showed an earlier diagram although the merged source already contained the completed one; the distinct image URL addresses that observed source/render mismatch without relying on cache invalidation.

The original Aether mark, IBM numerical record, IBM measurement note and hardware figure are preserved. The IBM study remains a separately labeled experiment; its QPU measurements are not attributed to the simulated CharLS selections.

GEN3 QPACK experiment #1

gen3-qpack-findings.svg, gen3-qpack-paired-outcomes.svg and gen3-qpack-ratchet.svg are generated with matplotlib 3.10.8 by build_gen3_qpack_assets.py from ../research/gen3-qpack-experiment1.json. Source: owner-authorized public projection of the campaign banked at private qpack-t0 commit 255f84deec985b5be06b9b618c28adc23d8d8cff.

The first figure shows aggregate counts; the heatmap shows actual pair identities; the trajectory graph shows E002 and E095 with real stage/check fingerprints. Missing cells, paired regressions, unsupported control evidence and local-energy comparability limits remain visible. These are producer-reported exploratory native outcomes, not a superposition image, physical quantum result, independent replication or new-CVE claim. Full reproduction and disclosure limits are in the research note.

September 25 service and research cards

card-crucible.svg, card-strikes.svg, card-ci.svg, and card-red-team.svg are local editorial navigation cards for the public README. card-qpack.svg is a summary card using the already published exploratory 5/8 and 2/8 controlled-fault counts; it links to the full result and limits. badge-attack-chains.svg, badge-scoped-work.svg, and badge-gen3-research.svg are static labels, not live status checks. All new assets are self-contained SVGs with accessible title and description text; they include no external media, scripts, or private research data.

October 3 HTB Academy Nmap milestone

  • ../media/predator-vpn-scan-preview.gif — the existing sanitized 27-frame Predator M evidence replay, preserved byte for byte; Git blob ae2937e7895a55895efd19bab0abaeff475e4b37. It summarizes saved Academy scans, GLM-5.3 evidence, and owner-confirmed completion of all 12 sections. Execution attribution in the accompanying text follows the owner's clarification: Predator/GLM-5.3 ran the VM commands autonomously; the owner typed the Academy answers. Target addresses, VPN material, and exercise flags are withheld. It is assembled evidence, not a continuous desktop recording.
  • ../media/predator-pwnbox-ttl-preview.gif — the existing sanitized four-frame Pwnbox console preview, preserved byte for byte; Git blob c0ef63583404a2e36c6825c6cdb55715867b5fe3. It shows preflight, observation, reviewed guest input, and a TTL lesson result; the VPN module completion is a separate continuation.

Both assets come from Predator M revision b02492146d7f7cf5eb1ee3c8b27362dfedbaba2a. The public completion note records model/owner roles and evidence limits. Neither replay is a quantum-hardware receipt or a customer assessment.

October 5 social preview

social-preview.svg and social-preview.png are local brand assets for repository sharing and the public site's Open Graph previews. They follow the existing README hero's typography and cyan/purple/green palette. The PNG is a 1280 × 640 raster export of the SVG using Sharp. These assets describe the public showcase; they contain no research measurements, completion claims, or private data.

October 6 developer console preview

  • predator-cli-console-preview.png — owner-supplied Predator CLI console illustration, displayed beneath the research-program invitation. Preserved byte for byte at 976 × 676; SHA-256 6307584a636f3e1e18195b3e0ecfdf2f6fbcdfc22a9ef3b59714e11f84c23d81. The pictured counters, qubit label, and sample engagement are illustrative; the current registry snapshot and published scientific records remain the sources for measured claims.
