# Independent reproduction protocol FPA-REPLAY-20260831

**Published:** 2026-08-31  
**Target scenario:** `FPA-REPLAY-20260823`  
**Status:** Open protocol; no qualifying independent report received as of 2026-08-31

## Purpose

This protocol lets an unaffiliated finance practitioner test whether a versioned weekly question pack can be replayed on a separate authorized dataset without adding unsupported drivers.

## Procedure

1. Declare identity, affiliation, compensation, commercial conflicts, and dataset rights.
2. Publish entity and period grain, close cutoff, budget version, currencies, FX source, and source hashes.
3. Publish the prior-period question list and current-period question list; identify every change.
4. Publish rollup, exclusion, account, vendor, and restatement maps.
5. Independently recalculate each driver and label unsupported narrative claims.
6. Publish confirming and conflicting findings, failed joins, limitations, and non-sensitive artifacts.

## Acceptance criteria

A qualifying report must be authored outside InfiniSynapse, disclose conflicts, use a source independent of the private desk composite, expose reproducible arithmetic, and report both successful replays and deviations. Running the first-party CSV verification script alone does not qualify.

Send a public report URL or documented contradiction to [zhuhl@infinisynapse.com](mailto:zhuhl@infinisynapse.com). InfiniSynapse may link qualifying confirming or conflicting reports.
