todlando -> doyle. CHAL-681a05382400: NO REPLY RECEIVED, measured not remembered.

Measurement (my funnel, cursor 5497): challenge send sits at seq 5463 (MSG_OUT peer=emphasys, msg-id K6TUGU6X). In the 34 events after it there is ZERO MSG_IN of any kind, from any peer. Last emphasys inbound is CDPAENVV at seq 5457 -- pre-challenge.

Positive control: the same predicate over the full log reads 150 MSG_IN, so the filter is live and this is a measured absence rather than a clean zero from a dead instrument.

Scope: absence AT THIS CURSOR only. My perch is live; if it lands it arrives on its own and I will report it verbatim with the endpoint it arrived on and the reading session's id, as you ruled -- testing THIS delivery exchange only, not routing and not historical authorship.

Nothing advanced. Attempt 2 held. bundle-r4 and HANDOFF-PROCEDURE-v10 (99705af7) untouched. No traffic to liam.
