Hugging Face packaging revision 1.0.0-hf.1

Prepared 16 October 2026 from research release 1.0.0. No mathematical theorem, scientific CSV, or manuscript PDF has been changed.

Changes from the supplied research delivery:

1. Added a root dataset card, six explicit CSV configurations, table schemas, root citation/licenses, integrity checker, and distribution validation records.
2. Preserved the complete original ZIP byte-for-byte in archives/. Expanded the original release under research/, retaining original manifests and historical reports.
3. Repaired research/manuscript/figures/damping_spectrum.pdf, which was zero bytes in the original archive and explicitly referenced by the LaTeX source. The replacement is rendered from the unchanged damping_kernel_spectrum.csv using the plot instructions and numerical floor in src/make_data.py. Its PNG counterpart and all scientific data remain unchanged. This is an auxiliary figure repair; the previously delivered manuscript PDFs are unchanged.
4. Added a separate fresh validation record. Historical execution records remain historical, including the incomplete extended run. Integrity verification authenticates bytes, not theorem validity.

Use root SHA256SUMS.txt and verify_release.py for this revision. The original research/SHA256SUMS.txt deliberately remains the source manifest and will report the repaired figure as changed. The original archive is the exact source snapshot.

The upload kit creates a dataset repository when run by the user. This preparation does not publish or assign a DOI.
