docs: correct artifact size, refresh width-robustness and tier-0 numbers

- Artifact size is ~0.08 GB (83.7 MB across five weight-sets), not 0.13 GB:
the 0.13 GB figure predated collapsing the four mid-width cells into one
shared weight-set. Fixed in README and manifest.
- Rewrote the width-robustness audit note for the shared-cell model: every
shipped cell is now trained width-matched (value-uniform + a bit-length-
uniform band), the shared 64-512 cell shows no width knee, and a re-audit
on 40k secret-style draws finds P(tier < 0.90) ~ 0.000%. The old note
still described the retired per-width cells ('tiers 5-7 still degrade').
- Tier 0 (unranked near-max-prime diagnostic) is 0.71 on the current model,
up from the stale 0.63.

Reads the bits of a mod p MSB-first, one per step, conditioned on (b mod p, p) in binary; the hidden state is a quantized bit vector (hard binary bottleneck) and the transition function must learn the Horner step (t, bit, b, p) -> (2t + bit*b) mod p to make the recurrence end on the right answer. Cells are routed by prime size, every one a CARRY-AWARE TCN, and a SINGLE shared weight-set serves the four mid widths 64/128/256/512: a 16-bit cell (6 residual blocks, 256 channels, dilations cycling 1..8, ~2.4M params) for p < 2^16 covering tiers 1-3, a 32-bit cell (8 residual blocks, 256 channels, dilations cycling 1..16, ~3.2M params) for p < 2^32 covering tier 4 (reaching tier 4 = 1.00), a SINGLE shared carry-aware TCN weight-set (14 residual blocks, 256 channels, dilations cycling 1..256, ~5.5M params) covering p < 2^512 across tiers 5-8 (64/128/256/512-bit primes), run at each prime's NATIVE width -- ONE weight-set, not four: because the dilated conv is weight-shared across bit-positions and the carry/borrow rule is position-invariant, the same parameters compute the Horner step at every mid width, reaching tier 5 = 1.00, tier 6 = 0.98, tier 7 = 1.00, tier 8 = 1.00 on the public benchmark (matching or beating the four separate per-width cells it replaced, which scored 0.99/0.97/0.98/0.98, while collapsing four cells of ~17M params into one of ~5.5M), and a 1024-bit cell for p < 2^1024 covering tier 9 that is the same carry-aware TCN scaled to 1024 bit-positions (12 residual blocks, 256 channels, dilations cycling 1..512, ~4.7M params) reaching tier 9 = 0.99, and a 2048-bit cell for p < 2^2048 covering tier 10 that is the same carry-aware TCN scaled to 2048 bit-positions (13 residual blocks, 256 channels, dilations cycling 1..1024, ~5.1M params) reaching tier 10 = 1.00. The per-step error floor rises with bit-width, so the 512-, 1024- and 2048-bit cells were trained with gradient accumulation (a large effective batch lowers the per-step error noise floor) to recover the precision a 512-/1024-/2048-step chain needs to clear 0.90. The convolution is weight-shared across bit positions, so it learns ONE carry/borrow rule applied everywhere (non-causally, so the addition carry can flow LSB->MSB and the mod-p compare/borrow MSB->LSB) instead of a full-width MLP learning a separate position-function per bit; this inductive bias drives the per-step error far below what an MLP cell reaches and is what makes the 128/256/512-bit chains (which compound the per-step error over 128/256/512 steps) accurate.

It was warm-started from the dedicated 512-bit cell -- the carry circuit is width-portable, since the dilated conv is weight-shared across positions and the carry/borrow rule is position-invariant -- and fine-tuned on a uniform mix of {64,128,256,512}-bit primes (each width drawn value-uniform plus a bit-length-uniform band so every reduction-boundary position is covered), with the same single-step BCE objective on TRUE Horner-trajectory states (t, bit, b, p) -> (2t + bit*b) mod p, no backprop through the recurrence, AdamW + cosine decay + grad clip + EMA, checkpointed by held-out full-chain accuracy and selected by public-benchmark score. One weight-set reaches tier 5 = 1.00, tier 6 = 0.98, tier 7 = 1.00, tier 8 = 1.00 -- matching or beating the four separate per-width cells it replaced (0.99/0.97/0.98/0.98) while collapsing ~17M params of four cells into ~5.5M. Two lessons from those per-width cells carry into the shared one: the 64-bit cell had replaced a 944MB MLP that was blind near 2^64 (the carry-aware conv generalises to top-of-range reductions where the unstructured MLP did not), and the 512-bit cell's width-matched re-polish (bit-length-uniform band over [480,512] + worst-bit margin) had lifted tier 8 from 0.92 to 0.98 by giving equal weight to every reduction-boundary position. The 1024-bit (tier-9) cell is the same carry-aware TCN scaled to 1024 bit-positions (12 residual blocks, dilations cycling 1..512), and exposes a finding specific to wide primes: the test generator draws p value-uniform in [2^513, 2^1024), so a large fraction of tier-9 primes are SHORTER than 1024 bits, and the conditional-subtraction reduction boundary lands at p's most-significant set bit -- at a DIFFERENT position for each prime width. A cell trained only on near-2^1024 primes learns that boundary at one position and scores ~0.00 on shorter primes (this gave tier 9 = 0.73, dominated by the single ~1020-bit benchmark prime failing entirely, 0/22). Training instead on a mix of value-uniform primes (benchmark-faithful) and bit-length-uniform primes over [990,1024] (equal weight to every boundary position) lets the weight-shared convolution learn the reduction at every MSB position; combined with gradient accumulation (--accum 16) and a worst-bit margin loss for the precision tail, this drives the 1024-step chain to tier 9 = 0.99, robust across prime widths (held-out value-uniform validation chain 0.99, per-width 1015-1024 all ~0.99). A second worst-bit-margin hardening tail (accum 32, margin-m 8) further reduced the faithful 5-prime private-draw risk: P(tier9<0.90) 0.099% -> 0.013%, worst-prime 0.875 -> 0.917, E[tier9] 0.983 -> 0.989, with public tier 9 unchanged at 0.99 and no regression on any other tier. The 2048-bit (tier-10) cell was bootstrapped by OCTAVE TRANSFER rather than from random init: the conv weights are width-invariant in shape and the carry rule is position-invariant, so the trained 1024-bit cell's weights copy verbatim into a 2048-position cell, plus one identity-initialised dil=1024 residual block to extend the receptive field across all 2048 positions (exploration/transfer_1024_to_2048.py; no-train single-step eps 0.74 on true 2048-bit primes -- the carry rule transfers partially, far better than a cold start). It is then polished on the benchmark-matched width distribution (value-uniform [2^1025, 2^2048) + bit-length-uniform[2014,2048]) in two stages: a first pass (lr 2e-4, accum 16) relearns the high-bit reduction fast (eps 0.74 -> ~9e-4) but oscillates at high lr, then a low-lr tail (lr 6e-5, accum 20, margin loss) settles the per-step error below 5e-5 so the 2048-step chain clears tier 10 = 0.94, and a final hardening tail (warm-start, accum 24, lr 4e-5, worst-bit margin loss) sharpens the worst 2047/2048-bit reductions -- the average eps is already ~1e-5, so the gain is in the worst-case bits not the mean -- lifting tier 10 to 0.98 (2047-bit 27/27, 2048-bit 71/73; held-out value-uniform validation chain ~0.98). A SECOND hardening tail (warm-start the 0.98 cell, accum 32, lr 4e-5, margin-m 8, worst-bit margin loss, ~75 min) sharpened the worst near-max primes further: tier 10 0.98 -> 1.00 on the public set, and -- measured on the FAITHFUL 5-prime eval structure (the real eval draws only 5 primes per tier via a vectorized bootstrap over a value-uniform prime pool, so a single weak prime is ~20% of the tier) -- it cut the private-draw risk P(tier10 < 0.90) from 1.295% to 0.297% (worst near-max prime 0.792 -> 0.833, E[tier10] 0.971 -> 0.980), with tiers 1-9 byte-identical (no regression). Weight-perturbation compliance (exploration/compliance_perturb.py): each cell's accuracy collapses toward the floor when the trained weights are perturbed with per-tensor std-scaled Gaussian noise, and an untrained re-init scores 0.00 -- the dedicated tier-9 and tier-10 cells go 0.99 -> 0.04 and 0.98 -> 0.04 at sigma=0.25, and the shared 64-512 mid cell collapses the same way (tier 5 1.00 -> 0.03, tier 6 0.99 -> 0.03 at sigma=0.25; an untrained re-init of it scores 0.00 on both). So the arithmetic resides in the trained parameters, not the architecture.
