Prepared a source-traceable successor product spec, recognition/data model, open fingerprint database contract, execution order, business/provider/naming research and interactive macOS/iPhone/website/future-recognition mockups. Public name remains TBD; Filexen is provisional. HyperFile, Dataroo and ReplicantDB remain owner-preferred contenders, with xattr.org considered independently for the open database.

Evidence: 12 local roots, 37 related GitHub trees after metadata filtering, 62 selected Notes bodies from 321 candidate Notes, five distribution artifacts.159 historical requirements mapped:136 covered 18 deferred 5 routed/excluded.103 proposed implementation requirements. Repository/source/status distinctions retained; discovery counts do not claim exhaustive code inspection.

Validation:159 trace snapshots/section references,80 local HTML links/fragments,103 unique proposed IDs; mockup 75 render states 13 dialogs 4 identity/search 2 network checks; zero detected leaks in bounded Gitleaks scan. Browser visual acceptance unavailable. Protected site content and Note attachments remain explicit gaps.

Three GPT-6 Sol workers performed repository/Notes/provider research and prototype work; lead synthesized and reviewed. Fleet meter moved 69%to 71%OpenAI used during the session, not attributable task spend. No agy jobs, purchase, app build/install, source mutation, tagging, deduplication or migration.

Existing xattr implementation owner retained; all research isolated in the handoff folder. Integration and GUI review are subsequent work. Apple Notes publication and codex_links rows remain pending until confirmed by the owning GUI session.
