# Unresolved-Threads Protection Audit - Chapter 15

id: unresolved_threads | owner: codex | target: `output/chapters/chapter_15.md`

- `PROTECTED-HELD — thread: Theo's nephew identity / S-CATALOG-01 — strongest resolution-candidate moment quoted: "The volume with the paper slip in it went on the bottom... she turned the whole stack ninety degrees so it faced the wall." — why it is not resolution: deepens object pressure without opening the acknowledgment page or naming Eileen/Theo/Odile's family relation. Earliest permitted resolution per ledger: Ch17.`
- `PROTECTED-HELD — thread: June's New York decision / S-OFFER-01 / S-NY-01 — strongest resolution-candidate moment quoted: "There was the yes that solved seven things and the no that she couldn't yet justify with anything Nia would recognize as a real reason..." — why it is not resolution: the alternatives are clarified and intensified, but neither Philadelphia nor New York is chosen. Earliest permitted resolution per ledger: Ch22.`
- `PROTECTED-HELD — thread: Theo does not know the offer substance — strongest resolution-candidate moment quoted: "Theo: Six pm count done. 41 chairs..." and June replies only, "The coat counts." — why it is not resolution: Theo remains in chair-count/label-note logistics and receives no Nia/Tasker/December 4 information.`
- `NOT-TOUCHED — thread: Priya/Ben Suffolk application outcome.`
- `NOT-TOUCHED — thread: hidden Week 3 portrait / S-PORTRAIT-01.`
- `NOT-TOUCHED — thread: Odile's knowledge and motives.`

Quick Test:

- `QUICK-TEST: 1 of 4 conflicts introduced in this chapter were resolved within their own scene — verdict: JOGGING`
  - Introduced and resolved: June's lack of formal offer terms; intro `"Tell me the official version"`; resolution `"Friday, December fourth, noon"` plus the full offer terms.
  - Introduced and left open: whether June accepts Philadelphia (`"she still cannot answer"` implied by pinned deadline action), whether Asha's name should go to Nia (`"It wasn't hers to spend yet"`), whether the catalogs reveal anything (`"the slip was just paper"` but unread), and what `After Class` label/chair-count material means between June and Theo.

Chapter verdict: `THREADS-SAFE`

REVISION ORDERS: none.
