What was read, and when

• The exchange was recorded on 30 September 2026: one model by its API, the vendor's defaults, no system prompt, a single turn. The reply is printed whole. Its formula was run the same day in one desktop spreadsheet with an English interface, on June and July 2026.
• The statute, 5 U.S.C. § 6103, in the United States Code's 2024 edition, and the federal personnel office's page of holidays for 2026, both read on 30 September 2026.
• The pages of two makers, read on 30 September 2026: the coding assistant's and the spreadsheet function's, both undated.
• The flyer's decisions: the publication's record of 25 September 2026. The workshop's files were closed on 25 August 2026, for a lesson shipped on 16 August 2026; its cost account is labelled modelled and not an invoice.

The sources are printed in the full edition, chapter by chapter, with the day each was read. This page prints the same list.
