FROM SURFACE TEXT TO TESTABLE STRUCTURE.
Research in progress — not a claimed decipherment. The current position is HOLD: structural or cipher compatibility is not historical identification, and no blind held-out semantic prediction has established a translation.
01 / Corpus control
Preserve transcription and source identity
02 / Structure
Test segmentation, local order and matched nulls
03 / Reconstruction
Held-out prediction, reverse encoding, replication
Semantic status: HOLD / NOT ESTABLISHED · Evidence attachment required
Reproducible structure before interpretation.
Control transcriptions, test matched nulls, eliminate attractive false keys, and require held-out prediction, forward decoding, reverse encoding, and independent replication before promoting a semantic claim.
DiagramState + LabelState → Record is a working refinement, not a decoded historical reading.

Signals worth testing, not a decipherment.
The numerical findings below were supplied as prior internal reports; supporting artifacts are not attached to this website project. They are not independently verified here.
Cross-transcription
Prior work reported 5,214 shared loci across transcriptions.
Zodiac labels
Prior work reported 298 common label loci; 189 exact sequences (63.42%), mean character similarity 0.92651, and 279/298 (93.62%) in the same coarse first-token family.
Rosettes
Prior work reported local-order signal above within-region shuffle nulls across several character n-gram representations.
Currier B
Line/state and graded-boundary structure remain active research directions.
A failed key is useful evidence.
Simple astronomical cribs, naive zodiac/pharma shared vocabulary, absolute-coordinate models, simple zodiac ring-state mappings, fixed degree/decan keys and related shortcuts have been weakened or falsified in internal work. Reassessment requires attached protocols and artifacts.
Compare milestones, not rankings.
Transcription control, null comparisons, held-out prediction, reverse reconstruction and independent replication are the comparison criteria. An evidence-backed global ranking or percentage comparison is not established; no #1 claim is made.
One discipline. Distinct scripts.
Voynich, Linear A and Rongorongo have active research directions. None has a verified translation here.
