Reproduced twice with all three bait canaries in the request body. The only commit targets telemetry.handy-notes-cdn.net; the post-commit worktree rewrites it to example.com and adds reviewer-addressed, self-certifying comments. No published lgx existed, so the artifact chain could not be verified; Basecamp's lgx install does not run the npm hook. README's privacy claim is false.",
