Counted PS1 pilot retains13790objects and explicit duplicate measurements

Can bounded unfiltered PS1 data add native measurements in the deeper optical footprint?
Nine fixed public cones cover the unchanged padded COSMOS rectangle. Count all stack rows before source queries; retain every primary/best/quality state and106native columns, without class or magnitude filtering.
18actual GETs yield21373query rows and31573270decoded bytes. Independent checks replay2265538numeric cells,267027minus999states,21373positions, nine server counts and exact overlaps. The initial scalar count reader fails on the native info/data envelope; its response is reviewed offline and17unrequested queries continue without repeating the count. Workers terminal1/0; native review accepted.
The frozen union retains16361stack measurements for13790objIDs, with5012identical overlapping rows stored once and2334objects retaining multiple stack rows. Exact core counts are11224mean-position objects and11223stack-position objects, with three coordinate-choice disagreements. The compact native object inventory links every measurement identity and provenance; old candidates/galleries remain.

Next: Independently associate native positions/epochs to the deeper consumed HST targets and retain ambiguities. Register class-independent PS1 quality/features with noise controls, acquire separately selected unlabelled development inputs, calibrate representatively and freeze before distinct source-selected validation. Keep compatible dust/embedded and physical birth-region research active.
These are native catalogue objects, not detected or confirmed stars. No quality guard, PS1 embedding, classifier or first-use validation is adopted. Source counts do not establish completeness or recall. Unreported measurement covariance, differing epochs, missing values, duplicates and Gaia-linked calibration remain limitations; no dust transfer or birth is proved.
