Sub-manifests have no reference implementation to check against, so the corpus is the oracle and had to be built rather than assumed. Adds the eleven vectors Appendix A.5 requires that were missing, among them the three-level tree whose absence is why the step-5 cursor contradiction survived into an implementation: no published artifact carried an interior node, so nothing exercised that path.

Every authored vector is generated by the implementation and then rechecked along a path that shares no code with it, and each derived name is compared against the constant the test pins, so no hash in the corpus is hand-written. Two fuzz targets cover S-card classification and the tree walk.

One A.5 bullet is not satisfiable as written: the re-tune vector asks for two parameters over the A.1 name list that yield trees sharing no sub-manifest, but that list's single qualifying boundary falls in the same place for the first three values and is suppressed above them. No vector was invented for it; an erratum is drafted and a test pins the finding so it stays visible. check-in: 72bba34ada user: dmestas tags: sub-manifest
