 ## Newest Work
 
+- Strict active equivalence sweep + reach-meter backfill on 2026-05-09:
+  - follow-up after the FS.com `QDD-2FR4-800G` false-comparable correction
+  - audited all active `approved/auto_approved` equivalence matches for hard 1:1 risks:
+    - breakout/AOC/DAC/cable class mismatch
+    - known reach mismatch
+    - known fiber mismatch
+    - primary wavelength mismatch
+    - missing core evidence on active matches
+  - found and rejected `16` active false positives:
+    - Flexoptix 400G/100G pluggable optics that were matched to ATGBICS AOC/breakout products
+    - Flexoptix `Q.851HG.03` 300m MMF incorrectly matched to 70m and 40km NADDOD rows
+    - Flexoptix `Q.854HG.01.P` 100m MMF incorrectly matched to a 1m NADDOD row
+  - global reach-meter backfill:
+    - `269` rows with `km` reach labels received numeric `reach_meters`
+    - `131` rows with `m` reach labels received numeric `reach_meters`
+    - remaining reach labels without meters are only `N/A` accessory/control rows, not distance products
+  - post-sweep active match risk counts:
+    - active approved/auto-approved matches: `34051`
+    - breakout-class mismatches: `0`
+    - reach mismatches: `0`
+    - fiber mismatches: `0`
+    - wavelength mismatches: `0`
+    - missing core evidence: `0`
+  - live counters after sweep:
+    - equivalence queue: `pending=0`, `approved=1987`, `auto_approved=32064`, `rejected=148382`, `due_research=0`
+    - product verification: total `17647`, price `11557`, image `11963`, details `11085`, fully `9861`
+  - truth:
+    - active equivalence matches now have no known hard 1:1 mismatches by DB evidence
+    - this still does not mean every product row is fully enriched; remaining work is product-level vendor enrichment and source capture
+
 - FS.com `QDD-2FR4-800G` false comparable correction on 2026-05-09:
   - operator spotted that the dashboard showed invalid comparable products for FS.com `QDD-2FR4-800G`
   - wrong examples:

+# Strict Active Equivalence Sweep
+
+Date: 2026-05-09
+Actor: Codex
+Scope: TIP active equivalence matches, DB-only evidence, Erik-safe
+
+## Why
+
+After the operator caught the false comparable product for FS.com `QDD-2FR4-800G`, Codex ran a broader DB-only safety sweep over active `approved` and `auto_approved` equivalence matches. The goal was to catch any remaining active 1:1 mistakes before they show up as trusted competitor products in the dashboard.
+
+## Checks
+
+Hard active-match risks checked:
+
+- breakout/AOC/DAC/cable class mismatch
+- reach mismatch when both sides have known reach
+- fiber mismatch when both sides have known fiber
+- primary wavelength mismatch when both sides have known wavelength
+- missing core evidence on active matches
+
+## Result
+
+Rejected `16` active false positives:
+
+- Flexoptix 400G/100G pluggable optics matched to ATGBICS AOC/breakout products
+- Flexoptix `Q.851HG.03` 300m MMF matched to NADDOD 70m and 40km rows
+- Flexoptix `Q.854HG.01.P` 100m MMF matched to a NADDOD 1m row
+
+Backfilled numeric reach evidence:
+
+- `269` rows with `km` reach labels received `reach_meters`
+- `131` rows with `m` reach labels received `reach_meters`
+- remaining reach labels without meters are only `N/A` accessory/control rows
+
+Post-sweep active risk counts:
+
+- active approved/auto-approved matches: `34051`
+- breakout-class mismatches: `0`
+- reach mismatches: `0`
+- fiber mismatches: `0`
+- wavelength mismatches: `0`
+- missing core evidence: `0`
+
+Live counters after the sweep:
+
+- equivalences: `pending=0`, `approved=1987`, `auto_approved=32064`, `rejected=148382`, `due_research=0`
+- product verification: total `17647`, price `11557`, image `11963`, details `11085`, fully `9861`
+
+## Training Note
+
+TIPLLM should treat unknown reach/fiber/wavelength as insufficient evidence for final 1:1 competitor approval, not as a wildcard. Breakout/AOC/DAC/cable class must be part of the equivalence key.
+
+No external AI was used and no crawler wave was started.
