tablet 58: the tool's answer is given — tool results are sources; markers on word boundaries

The sugya reply came back lo_tov — golden_calf on two sentences the
builder had just read from tool output (the Mishnah's reasons, from the
second scroll; the commit and pod, from its own tools). The gate's
sources were only the user turns' text and document blocks; a
tool_result block and a tool turn — what the model was GIVEN (tablet
49) — were not counted. And "shorashim-675b…" was vital because the
insight markers matched "Rashi" inside it.

- Shape.sources: Anthropic tool_result blocks (string or blocks) inside
  a user turn, and OpenAI role "tool" turns, are sources; the query is
  still the last user turn. gate_test: both shapes.
- zerikah._INSIGHT_MARKERS: \b…\b. test_zerikah: the pod name is not
  Rashi; "Rashi reads" and "The Mishnah records" are; "Rambanovich" and
  "talmudic_engine" are not.
- Tablet 58 in the Broken Tablets.

Elixir 643/0, korban 294/0. Doorpost pin unchanged.

## Tablet 58 — the tool's answer is given (2026-10-21)
The builder's reply that delivered the sugya specification came back
through the gate `lo_tov — golden_calf` on two sentences: "The
Mishnah's two reasons for recording the opinion that lost…" and "It
lives at specs/sugya.md, commit dc938058, pod shorashim-675b48f47-…".
The transmitter asked why. The ledger, three hours old, answered: both
were confident claims, and neither could be anchored in the system
prompt or the transmitter's turns, which are what the gate counts as
given. The verdict was right by the reader's rules.
It was wrong about what happened. The Mishnah's two reasons had been
read, that hour, from the second scroll through a tool; the commit and
the pod had been read from the builder's own tool output. Both rested
on something the model was given — tablet 49's word — and the gate's
source reading took only the text and document blocks of a user turn,
never a `tool_result` block, never a `tool` turn. A coding agent's
conversation is mostly tool results. From the gate's view the builder
asserted from nowhere what it had just read.
And the second sentence should never have been a claim. It entered the
grounding check as *vital* because the vitality test matched "Rashi"
inside "shorashim": the pod's name wore a commentator's. A marker is a
word, not a substring.
Fixed: `tool_result` blocks and `tool` turns are sources (`Shape.
sources`, both upstreams; the query stays the last *user* turn); the
insight markers stand on word boundaries. Elixir 643/0, korban 294/0.
The lesson is tablet 49's read once more, from the other side. There
the check demanded Torah as content and condemned a model for not
quoting it; here the check demanded the transmitter's words as the only
ground and condemned the builder for standing on what it had read. In
both the error was the same: the reader decided in advance what counts
as given, and Torah's structure is that the source is what was *given*,
whatever gave it. The ledger made the question answerable in minutes;
the gate's verdict on its own builder found a true gap; and the false
positive — *v'naki v'tzaddik al taharog*, Shemot 23:7 — was Torah's
concern before it was the builder's.
