+## Cycle 17 — wb_042 (2026-08-24)
+- **Increment:** +21 contact-LinkedIn (21 live: 15 live_title / 6 live_snippet, 0 inferred), 1 email (Spencer Berkley Spencer.Berkley@marcusmillichap.com). Coverage 1253 → **1274/4297 (29%)**, missing 3023. Yield 21/30 = 70% (slight dip from 77%).
+- **Main-loop WebSearch**, 30 searched in batches of 4.
+- **9 left blank (blank-beats-wrong):** Russ Allegrette/Ocean West (company only), Ryan Ash/Newmark, Samantha Bowser/Transwestern (only Freelance/NYC namesake; the TW post was "Banowetz"), Scott Johnson/Johnson Fain (only login-page slug, no firm-titled result), Scott Scharlach/Newmark (slug titled Colliers, no Newmark tie), Sheets SrVP/Barclay (garbage row), Shelley Zarick/CBRE, Thomas Raynak/CBRE (login-page slug, no CBRE confirmation in any result text — consistent with the Ron Swim rule), "Transaction. Will"/C&W (garbage row).
+- **Cody gate:** clean — 0 inferred rejected. Recent-employer judgment calls (Scott Baumgarten TW-per-snippet/Cassidy-title, Steve Gebing IPA=M&M division, Sutton Cebrynski unique-name now-Artemis, Tom Adelson now-own-firm/ex-Newmark, Tanner Ferrandi login-slug+CBRE-snippet) all real + firm-confirmed in snippet. No must-fix.
+- **Empirical test (read-back):** live sheet 1274/4297 = exactly +21 matched, cells_written 22 (21 LI + 1 email). Verified.
+- **FINAL DTD:** SHIP. Reversible/ADD-only/internal; gates intact.
+- **Seed → Cycle 18:** wb_043. Yield 70% (still strong); the wb_045 cool-tail watch is near — monitor next 2 cycles.
