The first-assessment roster is the set of Originators actually carried in the V1 production computation. It consists of the included setI (ten units, all of which enter the flagship's conservation and centering) and the shadow setS (two units, computed and published for observability but not part of I). The roster was settled in the V1 production freeze; the shadow designation follows the boundary rules of Section 3.4 and is reviewed at the monthly review (Section 10.4).
Table 23. First-assessment roster. The included set has ten units; the shadow set has two. Shadow units are marked with an asterisk.

The shadow designation is not a judgment about influence; it is a statement about the operational completeness of the observation layer for the unit at the review date. Units graduate to I by the dynamic membership procedure (Algorithm 9 in Appendix F) once the observation layer is judged complete; units exit I when the layer degrades below the completeness threshold for two consecutive reviews.
