20 October 2026 · dated development task-log handoff
New preparation is ready for review. The next tests have not passed.
Seven provided screenshots record follow-up work after the independent tests in Reports 68–70. They show an Evelyn eyelid-calibration correction being prepared and source-reviewed, plus NewBrain preflight and source-closure interruptions. These are development-status observations, not newly successful model or motion tests.
1.68% / 1.74%
Measured closure in the previously failed test; requirement was 65% on both lids. Later code review is not a passing retest.
Original12: 2/12
The screenshoted diagnostic preparations stopped before a new model result. Qwen comparison remains untested.
2/3 → 3/3 → 3/3
Three explicitly rehearsed synthetic answers retained after a distinct restart (Report 68). Not the Original12 benchmark.
Evelyn Hart: what changed and what remains blocked
The earlier owned-browser compatibility render accepted three distinct static head views. Separately, the first motion study failed the predetermined blink gate: eyelid aperture reduction was 1.68175% left and 1.74329% right, below 65%. Jaw calibration passed, but the six combined motion captures and optional video were not produced.
The follow-up task screenshots identify a small 0.5° scouting movement in the calibration as a limitation. They report a code correction that searches for sufficient eyelid travel, while preserving eye-stability and return-to-rest checks. The correction was reported as passing independent source review; that is code review, not a passing animation test.
The next fresh trial was reported not to have started because available memory was below the existing 8 GiB startup guard. A bounded working-set correction was being applied without closing ChatGPT or saved processes; after the first correction, available RAM was still below the guard. The task was moving small coordination steps into a lighter process. The screenshots do not show a successful fresh blink or speech test following this work.
The controlled engineering audio waveform and neutral-frame checks are timing/software tests, not Evelyn speaking. Generated dialogue, verified audio output, synchronized lips, persistent visitor memories and public installation all remain unverified.

NewBrain: a preparation block, not a new learning failure or gain
The supplied task screenshots show a planned fresh diagnostic that did not reach a model measurement. Available RAM failed the unchanged 8 GiB startup check on one attempt. In another preparation, the source-closure record supplied the wrong field name; the constructor stopped before a model/Native call. Failed preparations were kept, with cleanup and independent review reported as closed.
The development messages describe a corrected source-closure call passing independent code review and a bounded memory adjustment under way. Neither changed the accepted learning results, and neither establishes that the subsequent intended test actually ran.
| Assessment | Last accepted observation |
|---|---|
| Main Original12 | 2/12 before and 2/12 after the 256-update study and reload; no net gain |
| Rehearsed short three-row diagnostic | 2/3 → 3/3 → 3/3 following a distinct restart (Report 68) |
| Separate longer-answer diagnostic | 2/3 → 2/3; correct initial answer token but early end marker (Report 69) |
| Qwen model comparison | Unrun |
| Fresh diagnostic in the supplied screenshots | No model result; startup RAM and source-closure preparation blocks reported |
