The IQuest batched replay still fails the strict Adam update gate after matching the official eager attention operator family. This records all sixteen configurations and thirty-two paired steps with the same tokens, targets, optimizer and numerical tolerances as the prior audit.

Outputs and full gradients pass all32 comparisons, while complete parameter/update checks pass26/32 versus24/32 for the previous SDPA profiles. Six failures remain, so the candidate is unqualified. The Markdown table, complete raw results, executed snapshots and immutable hashes preserve the negative result. No provider, GPU performance, official40B execution or reward-convergence claim is added.

Validation: original fixture functions and all input matrices match; every parameter, Adam moment and step counter is checked with nonzero updates. The numerical audit naturally exits1 after completing all32 steps. Stack base: #33; evidence files only.
