# Citation Audit — JPL_AUTONOMY_EDL_06

**Candidate:** JPL_AUTONOMY_EDL_06
**Source file audited (read-only):** `dissertation.md` (not modified)
**Method:** Every DOI was resolved against the Crossref REST API (`https://api.crossref.org/works/<doi>`); every NTRS reference was resolved against the hardened NTRS citations API (`https://ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/<id>`), because the NTRS single-page app returns HTTP 200 on every route and cannot be used to distinguish a live record from a dead one. HTTP code classification: **200 = resolves**; **404/410 = dead**; **403/429/timeout/network = unverifiable (NOT dead)**. The ARGOS near-miss resolver (`D:/Claude_Code/brain/collegium/argos/near_miss_resolver.py`) was staged for any dead DOI; it was not invoked because no DOI failed to resolve.
**Audit date:** 2026-06-19

## Summary

| Metric | Count |
|---|---|
| Total references | 130 |
| Resolved (HTTP 200) | 128 |
| Unverifiable (403 / timeout / network) | 0 |
| Flagged — dead (confirmed 404/410 or near-miss analogy) | 0 |
| No external identifier by design (Hall-of-Shoulders dossiers) | 2 |

### Identifier breakdown

- **115** references carry a DOI; all **115** resolved 200 at Crossref.
- **13** references carry an NTRS citation URL (R071–R078, R085, R086, R128–R130); all **13** resolved 200 at the NTRS citations API.
- **2** references (ref-23 / S23 Mokyr; ref-24 / S24 Kuznets) are Hall-of-Shoulders methodological dossiers that, by the dissertation's own statement, are local research instruments naming their underlying canonical works (Mokyr, *The Gifts of Athena*, Princeton UP 2002; Kuznets, *National Income and Its Composition 1919–1938*, NBER 1941) and carry no external DOI or URL. These are not defects; they are correctly documented as local records.

### Counts by classification

| Classification | Count |
|---|---|
| `resolves` | 128 |
| `unverifiable` | 0 |
| `dead` | 0 |
| `mistyped_recoverable` | 0 |
| `misattributed` | 0 |
| `fabricated_neighbor` | 0 |
| `not_found` | 0 |
| `no-identifier-by-design` (dossier) | 2 |

## Flagged references (repair worklist)

**None.** No reference in this dissertation resolved as dead (404/410), and none was unverifiable. Every DOI returned HTTP 200 from Crossref and every NTRS citation returned HTTP 200 from the NTRS citations API. There is no repair work for Nate on this candidate.

The two no-identifier entries (ref-23, ref-24) are intentional and self-documented in the reference list; they require no fix. No table of flagged references is produced because the flagged set is empty.

## Provenance note

This reference list was assembled in corpus-key order (seed S01–S24, then harvested R025–R130) and, per the dissertation's own assertion, every entry is drawn from `research/corpus.jsonl`. The independent resolution sweep performed here confirms that assertion at the identifier level: 100% of externally-identified references (128 of 128) resolve to a live record at their stated authority (Crossref or NTRS). This is a clean bill for the JPL_AUTONOMY_EDL_06 bibliography.
