Research Loop Audit

Repair the failed prior child run `auto-continue-20260607T140730Z-repair-loop01`. The previous task was: Build an EQIX quarterly-results production package for the latest eight quarters: create eqix_source_manifest.csv with one primary-source row per quarter (direct supplement/SEC URLs, source type, expected table/section, access caveats), implement extract_eqix_quarterly.py to emit canonical rows for capex_actuals, future_capacity_pipeline, and revenue_conversion using the DLR 16-field schema, generate eqix_rows.csv, add validate_eqix_quarterly.py (required fields, 8-quarter coverage, row counts, unit/basis separation, provenance), and write eqix_verification_report.md sampling at least three primary-source snippets. Fix the persisted artifacts from that prior run so the machine gate passes. Do not choose a new task. Use the copied context for `auto-continue-20260607T140730Z-repair-loop01` and update the same expected artifact names.

Status: passed

Review cycles: 1

Acceptance criteria

• Addresses every listed machine-gate blocker or explains an exact unavailable item in a machine-readable row.
• Returns complete corrected versions of the expected artifact files, not a prose-only explanation.
• Does not start a new research direction until the failed prior task passes.
• Preserves source provenance, snippets, confidence, caveats, and validation summaries.
• eqix_source_manifest.csv contains exactly 8 primary-source rows (one per quarter) with direct URLs, source_family, period, stable_location (table/section), and basis_caveats
• eqix_rows.csv uses the canonical 16-field schema with at least one row each for capex_actuals, future_capacity_pipeline, and revenue_conversion across 8 distinct quarters
• extract_eqix_quarterly.py and validate_eqix_quarterly.py run offline from the artifact directory; validator exits 0 and rejects silent USD/cabinet/MW/revenue conversions or secondary-discovery rows
• eqix_verification_report.md independently samples at least 3 rows against cited primary snippets and documents explicit caveats where EQIX reports non-MW capacity units
• No mixing of forecast and actual classifications; announced pipeline metrics are not labeled as live capacity

Expected artifacts

• eqix_source_manifest.csv
• extract_eqix_quarterly.py
• eqix_rows.csv
• validate_eqix_quarterly.py
• eqix_verification_report.md
