Generated structural guide
Every nonzero digit strictly below its prime base has a complementary digit strictly below that base.
The unchanged tactic script uses 3 declared prerequisites and contains 22 exact native proof lines.
dependency-curried kernel-checked theorem body; Alpha enrollment and checked-use authority follow separately sealed release evidence; Stable membership remains unchanged
Historical empty-context replay experiment only; that experiment persisted no certificate and granted no release authority. Current checked use follows separately sealed, independently verified proof bundles; there is no Stable promotion.

Formal native tactic body
Dependencies are introduced as named hypotheses before line 1. Local theorem links identify exact declared prerequisites. This exact body belongs to a complete independently kernel-checked constructive proof bundle and has Alpha checked-use authority; it does not imply Stable membership.

This is a reading aid, not a new proof or a proof-tree certificate. Checkpoint groups are consecutive commands, not inferred branch boundaries. Every step links to the preserved script.
