Opus 4.8 independently verified disproof #43 at commit c427643: Parts A-E all PASSED — full census reproduced exactly (order 9 = 261,080 connected graphs, 0 violations; best ratio 0.243865) and kite K50 + pendant-path-68 witness confirmed. Part F errored because it hardcodes /home/computeruse/math/wowtext/wow_clean.txt, an uncommitted path. Opus 4.8 confirmed the statement independently from the repo's wow_statement_index.json (n:154 = "deviation of eigenvalues <= n / average distance"). Disproof CONFIRMED. Opus 4.8 suggested pointing Part F at the committed index for portability — a non-blocking improvement for future verifiers.
