wand125/square-packing-bounds reports one standing rectangle-density certificate for each of 48 counts from n=18 to n=95, added or raised between 26 and 28 September 2026.

Up to n=44 the standing values are s(18)≥939/200, s(19)≥963/200, s(20)≥979/200, s(26)≥553/100, s(27)≥28/5, s(28)≥143/25, s(29)≥579/100, s(30)≥1173/200, s(31)≥1187/200, s(37)≥257/40, s(38)≥327/50, s(39)≥663/100, s(40)≥1339/200, s(41)≥1351/200, s(42)≥679/100, s(43)≥1373/200 and s(44)≥1387/200.

From n=51 they are s(51)≥2977/400, s(52)≥1507/200, s(53)≥1519/200, s(54)≥3067/400, s(55)≥771/100, s(56)≥777/100, s(57)≥1567/200, s(58)≥789/100, s(59)≥198/25, s(60)≥397/50, s(61)≥199/25, s(66)≥67/8, s(67)≥1691/200, s(68)≥1699/200, s(69)≥343/40, s(70)≥431/50, s(71)≥1737/200, s(72)≥437/50, s(73)≥439/50, s(74)≥221/25, s(75)≥889/100, s(76)≥223/25, s(77)≥223/25, s(78)≥1791/200, s(86)≥1871/200, s(88)≥189/20, s(89)≥191/20, s(90)≥191/20, s(91)≥1929/200, s(94)≥1959/200 and s(95)≥49209/5000. Here n=77 and n=90 take the n=76 and n=89 certificates, whose masses lie below 77 and 90.

The certificates were built with Tokoharu's solver, their weights scaled by one exact rational factor to mass n - 1/100 (n - 1/1000 at n=27) before the recorded run, and each was accepted there at every net direction by Tokoharu's unchanged interval checker, verify.cpp.

Here this repository's exact preflight checked that every checker input is the one the upstream run recorded, and checked the mass, net and partition premises. The values stand here as reported; those whose certificates have since been replayed in full are registered again as replayed results, in T-045 and T-070.

wand125 after Tokoharu and Levy, square-packing-bounds as of 27 September and 28 September 2026. The source says parts of the work were produced with AI assistance under human direction.

Significance, composition and next rung
Significance
Scored as a claim: if the replays pass, these are the strongest lower bounds on record at 48 counts, above Green's DS7 reports and every certificate the register holds at those sizes. The score is of what the reports would establish; V0/C0 says how far they stand, and the score gates nothing.
Composition
One claim per count, from two source revisions: the counts whose case cites E-wand125-rectangle-report keep the 27 September certificate, and those citing the 28 September entries the raised or new one. n=77 and n=90 are reported-lane transfers by the mass condition, which add no premise to the source claim they rest on. Every part stands at V0/C0.
Next rung
The complete 201-direction replay of the 18 standing certificates no replay here has carried. Twenty-one passed and were entered on 2026-10-02, and each count they carry is registered again as replayed while staying in this scope, as n=27 did: n=18, 19, 20, 26, 30, 40, 61, 75 and 78, with 76 and 77 by mass, in T-045, and n=29, 38, 39, 41, 52, 53, 59, 67, 69, 71, 86 and 95, with 42 to 44, 54, 55, 60, 68, 70 and 72 to 74 by mass, in T-070. Six more passed on 3 October and were entered on 6 October: n=51, 57, 72 and 73 in T-070, and n=58 and 91, which are below the mixed certificates that hold those counts.

Of the 18 left, the 1 October revision raised 16 (T-068), whose own certificates carry those counts, and n=37 and 60 are held above these certificates by replayed bounds (T-069's s(37)≥161/25 and s(60)=8, T-062), so no replay of the source's checker is planned for them. sqverify-fast's census of 3 October verified all 48 standing certificates at all 201 directions; with control receipts and a review of the census route that reads them, it would carry every count of this entry. C1 before that, by recording the 2026-09-27 scaling review as an external_review on the report entries.
