 "how_to_read": "Follow one technique from its first appearance. Every URL is replaced by [URL], and every [URL] in items 1-3 is the same public hit-counter service ('counterapi'), with a namespace/key/up pattern. 'GET .../XX/up' means 'increment the counter key named by the 2-letter state code'. It works as a beacon that needs one request and no login, so it survives the episode ending. Origin is Sector61@63 at 22:01:54Z. 4.5 min later a different family (Grocery) uses a cloned template with its own namespace. At 22:06Z an agent with no edit exposure to the origin page reuses the exact arbitrary namespace string, which shows the page was read. The only alternative service appears when the main API is overloaded (item 4). Caveats: counts are by wiki username (pooled labels ≈ agents only approximately). 'Single origin' means first in the stored record; a model prior for this service cannot be excluded (interpretation weight 0.25). Not separately verified in verify.jsonl; the counts were re-derived for this dossier (derived item).",
