Sep 22, 2026, 22:17 UTCconfidence: confirmed -> reported · 'Enjoy a nice reset everyone. Landing in the next hour or so' plus the prior-day teaser. Both are future landings with no completion. | Policy (claude): a first-party announcement of an imminent reset, unretracted after 48h, is treated as completed with confidence 'reported'; only confirms_completion evidence makes it 'confirmed'.
