No AGENTS.md edit, no content/ records or citations added (verification found no identifiers), no run records. The change tightens rather than loosens a §3.15 mechanism: `answerFrom` now requires both a recognized answerer AND the structured "Answered on the record" marker, with tests demonstrating that a stranger using the marker and an authorized account's later aside both fail to count — this directly answers review note #231's objection instead of dodging it. Descriptions of the receipt are updated consistently everywhere the old wording appeared (page copy, schema doc comment, harvester header string, and all six harvested note headers), so the label no longer misdescribes what the code does (§3.8/§3.9). The spend copy is now date-bounded (pipeline since 2026-09-08, panel since 2026-09-09, unmetered before, all-time a floor) and `spentOn` reports priced sum plus a separate `unpriced` count, so a total is never silently presented as complete (§3.13). Notes 229/230 flip to closed with answers whose excerpts and comment URLs are internally consistent and dated at harvest; the `by: ejhong` attribution with an excerpt saying the operator wrote it on the founder's direction remains a mild display wrinkle previously raised, but it is disclosed in the record itself and not a misstamp created here. Remaining unverifiable item is whether the re-harvested GitHub comment texts match the live issues, which is external to this packet and internally consistent as shown.

The change strengthens the review-note receipt rule: `answerFrom` now requires both a recognized account and an opening “Answered on the record” marker, with tests rejecting passer-by markers and authorized-account asides. The schema comments, generated YAML headers, and operations-page explanation consistently describe the receipt as the last qualifying reply rather than the issue’s last comment. Spend reporting is now explicitly date-bounded, identifies pre-metering coverage as incomplete, and reports unpriced rows separately from the priced sum, avoiding false precision. The harvested PR-228 arbiter record preserves all five seats, the dissent, costs, prompt version, judged commit, and merged outcome rather than hiding disagreement. AGENTS.md is untouched, no content citations are added, and no visible check is weakened.

The change directly addresses feedback recorded in review note #231 without altering the constitution or any content records under content/. It strengthens the epistemic integrity of the review-note governance system by requiring an explicit structured marker ('Answered on the record') from an authorized answerer, preventing incidental remarks from being misattributed as formal answers. Furthermore, the operational spend reporting is clarified with date boundaries and explicit reporting of unpriced calls rather than presenting figures as all-inclusive all-time totals. All tests pass and no verification checks or constitutional procedures are weakened.

The change answers review note #231 by requiring the structured marker “Answered on the record” (recognized answerer only) for a harvest receipt, and by date-bounding spend copy so unmetered pre-2026-09-08/09 calls are disclosed as a floor rather than full coverage. Schema, page copy, file headers, harvest script, and tests all describe the same receipt rule; spentOn now reports priced sum plus unpriced count instead of silently nulling. No AGENTS.md edit, no content/ citations, no confidence material, and the answer marker tightens §3.15 inspectability rather than weakening it. Harvested arbiter/note YAML are append-only machine records of public issues; OMITTED FILES is empty.

This change tightens §3.15's inspectability rather than weakening it: the answer receipt now requires both a recognized answerer and an explicit 'Answered on the record' marker, with tests demonstrating that an aside by an authorized account, a marker from a stranger, and closure alone all fail — a direct implementation of the GPT seat's review note #231, and the spend copy is made more honest by date-bounding coverage and counting unpriced rows separately instead of silently nulling or flooring totals (§3.13, §3.8). No AGENTS.md edit, no content/ additions, no citation identifiers (verification empty), and no confidence material are involved, so the solo-park rules are not engaged. The new governance/arbiter/pr-228.yaml is an append-only, labeled harvest with internally consistent cost sums (seat tokens/USD total exactly) and per-seat votes displayed including the dissent, and note #231 correctly records that a lone provenance objection merges as a review note rather than parking, matching §3.15's amendment. Updating the review-note YAML headers and states is a re-harvest mirroring the recorded issue state, not silent repair, and is documented in DECISIONS.md; the only unverifiable element — that GitHub actually holds these comments and issue states — is external data postdating my knowledge, and the records are internally coherent with URLs, dates, and the truncated-at-300-chars excerpt ending mid-word exactly as the documented slice(0,300) produces.
