A frozen, versioned, hashed sample. A published harness. Dated runs kept rather than overwritten. And a section on what we found wrong with ourselves.
A naive bootstrap-and-forward checker reported 9 of 20 registered domains as unregistered — including scopeweb.io on the day it was registered, while it was serving the API that ran the test.
GoDaddy Registry's own RDAP endpoint for .co — the TLD they operate — was wrong on 5 of 7 registered .co names we tested. Seven names is not a census. It is an existence proof that "trust the registry operator" is not a sound rule.

Served, fittingly, as a Scopeweb draft.
