On criterion 2, astra and an independent Opus review both favour an under-calibrated mu threshold (calibrated on five unrepresentative seeds) and found no defect in the minimal-EP control; both flag the per-site sigma&gt;0 clip (analytic_ep_minimal.py:333) as the one audit target, and astra will not clear the control without an independent reconstruction of the EP fixed point. Next: run the planned diagnostic (archive/tasks/analytic_gaussian/minimal_ep_legb_mu_threshold.md) on a passing, an edge and the worst mu seed; the N=25 rung stays written but unsubmitted until it lands.</p>

 <p>The N=25 graphical baselines are in: per-lens fits (342348) give a naive parent of 1.999 / 0.089 (deconvolved 0.085), and the joint NUTS fit (342350_0) recovers mean 1.994 [1.976, 2.014] and sigma 0.087 [0.074, 0.104] against truth 2.0 / 0.1; its summary JSON still needs writing offline from samples.csv (now under z_vault/sample_n25_seed42). The EP arm returned the prior on the Laplace projection (343299: hierarchical factor 0/50 SUCCESS). The cure has landed: PyAutoFit#1656 (merged 2026-09-30, released 2026.10.7.1) adds af.LaplaceOptimiser(projection="moments"), which takes the tight toy from 0 to 3/3 SUCCESS. The shared RAL PyAutoFit mirror is still 404b3e5f7 (2026-09-27, kept frozen for euclid_dr1) and lacks both #1655 and #1656, so any rerun needs a private PyAutoFit checkout on RAL. All earlier output is vaulted in z_vault/ on laptop and RAL, output/ is empty for the rerun. Next: rerun the N=25 EP arm with projection="moments" on a private PyAutoFit checkout and compare its scatter against the NUTS baseline.</p>

 <p>The scale ladder is in. EP passes N=5/10/25 with coef_mean within 3σ and cost growing about linearly per sweep (26/50/140 s); it died at N=50 on a projection assert. That fix has landed: PyAutoFit#1655 (merged 2026-09-30, released 2026.10.7.1) raises ProjectionException, which EP factor_step now recovers from instead of killing the run. Graphical is cheaper but overconfident beyond N=25, and EP hill_coef widths are not yet comparable because util.py reports factor-message widths. The shared RAL PyAutoFit mirror is still 404b3e5f7 (2026-09-27, kept frozen for euclid_dr1) and lacks both #1655 and #1656, so any rerun needs a private PyAutoFit checkout on RAL. All earlier output is vaulted in z_vault/ on laptop and RAL, output/ is empty for the rerun. Next: rerun the EP ladder on a private PyAutoFit checkout with output on and a fixed seed, report hill_coef from the mean field, then give ep_lbfgs_jax a witness as the scale lever.</p>
