The peptidyl transferase centre and the aminoacyl-tRNA system are treated as two RNA-world lineages under independent selection — a generator that condenses activated amino acids into untemplated peptide, and a carrier that holds a stable link between one amino acid and one sequence. The genetic code is read as the record of where they met, with the CCA terminus as the interface. Chemistry biases the outcome without determining it; scaffold experiments are proposed to test it.
Universal L-handedness is argued to be transduced rather than chemically fixed: a peptide-bond generator with no stereochemical preference of its own passes handedness through from whichever carriers it is fed. The bias was frozen at the same merger event proposed for the genetic code, not decided by chemistry alone. A scaffold test using D- and L-charged minihelices is proposed to show product handedness tracking the carrier.
Argues that code assignment and amino-acid handedness are one operation, not two: chemistry biases, an encounter freezes the bias, and sequence copying inherits it from there. RNA → protein → DNA is presented as a dependency chain, not a ranking. This record carries two formal withdrawals — a previous teleological account of the DNA-emergence step, and a previous claim, now reversed, about heritable carriers. Both withdrawals are stated directly in the abstract, not buried, and both are rows in /claims/.
The formal note behind χ. Examines the escape law p = exp(−1/χ), shows it descends from weak-noise asymptotics rather than equilibrium rate theory, and does not need a thermal bath or detailed balance. Sets out four regimes where the law breaks down and argues it is underspecified without a further term for the drive's correlation time — the guardrails on when the threshold instrument on the front page means anything.
A negative result from the GSYN programme, reported because the diagnosis is the useful part. Ancient-peptide fragment adjacency was tested as a candidate constraint language for distinguishing closed oligomeric rings (F1-ATPase, two hexameric helicases) from monomers (Ras, kinesin, transducin) built from the same parts. It cannot: the descriptor records which fragment-pair types occur and discards multiplicity and locality, so a ring and a monomer with identical composition are indistinguishable by construction — a failure that was determinable before the experiment was run, not discovered by it. Two versions published; a third is in preparation.
The framework documents these papers were drawn from — Volume I, the formal core, the lexicon, claims and derivations — are in the library, unpublished and at whatever stage they're at.
