The sweep (main's item 1): 199 tracked text files, 783 lines. The founder's full name, first name and possessive become "the founder" (sentence starts capitalised); the lowercase operating-system user name in WSL paths and commands becomes <user>; the second owner login becomes "the second owner login"; the three earlier businesses and the two other brands become "the other business", "the earlier entity", "the earlier business" and "another brand"; the Chrome profile rule names the igneum.network profile, not the profile's label. The standing commit login igneum-labs is not a founder term here: the fresh-repository step renames it in the history (docs/plans/history-rewrite.md, tools/repo/fresh-repo.sh).
The patterns never appear in plain text in the tree (a plaintext list would be the hit): tools/ci/founder-strings.b64 (perl regex, tab, a sample per row) is read by tools/ci/founder-strings-check.sh (every tracked text file, perl, known-failed first: the self-test plants each row's sample in a fixture and the hit must name the file), by tools/community/discord-hooks.mjs (the guard's founder and business rows; the test takes its fixtures from the samples) and by tools/repo/fresh-repo.sh (the business names of the rewrite rules). site/forbidden-strings.txt carries the same patterns as b64: lines, decoded case-insensitive by site/scrub.mjs and tools/ci/launch-gates-check.mjs (whose fixture now plants an encoded made-up name). The check runs in the gate's tree checks on every merge.
Not in this commit, by main's word: the 105 commit messages and 40 personal-identity commits that need the history rewrite (listed, not run), and the secrets found by gitleaks over the history (reported with owners).

docs/provenance.md: table of every component Igneum uses (origin, licence, what changed, why, how measured), what is new, what to adopt from upstream, own-code licence pending the project lead's decision. Licences verified on disk: rusty-kaspa ISC, chiavdf Apache-2.0, igneum-pow MIT, blake2b_simd MIT, blake3 CC0 or Apache-2.0, sha2 MIT or Apache-2.0, secp256k1 CC0, keccak Apache-2.0 or MIT. RandomX, SP1, revm, blst, ProgPoW, LWMA, Monero, GMP, sha3: approximate, not cloned.
site: litepaper gains the Built on the shoulders section and nav entry; index gains the two-line mention and footer link near the RandomX comparison; the block rate reads one block a second at launch, rising, where it read as permanent (litepaper diagram, index live section).
tools/upstream: README with the exact merge commands, expected conflict files from fork-divergence, the test list and the consensus-review rule; sync-upstream.sh fetches and opens the merge on a branch without committing. Not run against the fork.
docs/commercial/prover-customer-brief.md: one-page brief for a first proving customer at testnet, timeline from journey.json, risks, 10 candidates labelled approximate.
