… referents `dolos data check`'s check 5 stayed silent about five figures. Three pots — rewards, reserves and treasury — move within an epoch through MIR certificates whose effective amounts only `EndStats` holds; `pool_count` settles at the boundary; `proposal_deposits` leaves the pot on an edge `ProposalState::is_active` deliberately does not share. None of them has an honest figure at the tip, so the tip comparison could not include them. Each of them does have an exact figure at every epoch boundary, and the archive keeps the closing `EpochState` of every epoch. That snapshot carries every input ESTART used to compute the next epoch's pots. So `handed_off_pots` rebuilds exactly the delta `estart::reset::define_new_pots` builds, runs it through the same `pots::apply_delta`, and `check_boundaries` compares the result pot by pot against what the next snapshot claims. Every pot is now covered, at the anchor where it means something. Two exceptions are documented rather than approximated: `utxos` and `reserves` at the Shelley→Allegra boundary, where ESTART reads the AVVM reclamation out of the UTxO set and never records it, and any hand-off whose closing snapshot is incomplete — which is check 4's finding, not this one's. Vote delegations were not swept at all, because the symmetric rule is false: a `VoteDeleg` naming an unregistered DRep is valid and simply carries no voting power. Three narrower rules are, each taken from the ledger code that maintains the invariant: 1. a `DRepState` row must agree with the key it is stored under, which `drep_to_entity_key` derives from its own identifier; 2. a delegation older than the retirement of the DRep it names must have been dropped by the boundary after it (`clears_drep_delegation`); 3. a delegation to a credential with no row at all, made before the protocol-10 boundary, must have been dropped by the one-shot migration there (`pv10_migration`) — a row is never deleted, so no row means never registered. Rules 2 and 3 need a chain position the store may not be able to place; a rule without its anchor does not run.

The replay validates the node's arithmetic against the figures the node recorded, not the figures themselves. An `EndStats` that understated a MIR would be replayed faithfully into pots that understate it; catching that needs a second, independent recomputation and a second reading of when the ledger says the two agree, and a wrong second reading would report every intact store as broken.

Guard epochs before the first stored era. ChainSummary::epoch_start panics when an epoch is earlier than the first stored era. The empty-summary guard does not cover this case. Validate live.number and pv10_epoch before calling epoch_start, so the check reports an error instead of panicking on an incomplete store.

Implements plans/dolos-data-check-pots-and-vote-referents.md — the two things
dolos data check's check 5 was left silent about when #1204 shipped it. Read-only, no repair, no new--checkid: a wider check 5 stays check 5.What was silent, and why
Five figures. Three pots —
rewards,reserves,treasury— move within an epoch through MIR certificates, andRollingStatsrecords the amounts the certificates ask for, including those to unregistered accounts that never move; onlyEndStatsholds the effective figures.pool_countsettles at the boundary.proposal_depositsleaves the pot at a boundary edge thatProposalState::is_activedeliberately does not share. None of them has an honest figure at the chain tip, so the tip comparison could not include them without a tolerance.Vote delegations were not swept at all, because the symmetric rule is false: two preprod accounts delegate to DRep credentials with no row, and the ledger permits exactly that.
1. Every pot, compared at every boundary
Each of those three pots does have an exact figure at every epoch boundary, and the archive keeps the closing
EpochStateof every epoch the node has been through. That snapshot carries every input ESTART used to compute the next epoch's pots:initial_pots, the epoch's ownRollingStats, theEndStatswrapup.flushwrote, and the live and mark pparams that pick the delta path.So
handed_off_potsrebuilds exactly the deltaestart::reset::define_new_potsbuilds, runs it through the samepots::apply_delta, andcheck_boundariescompares the result — pot by pot, all twelve figures — against what the next snapshot claims it started with. A disagreement is the node's own arithmetic, replayed over the node's own recorded inputs, failing to reproduce the pots the node stored.The log walk lives inside check 5 rather than in a new check because it is where the pot rules belong, it costs one pass over a per-epoch log, and it produces the anchor the account scan needs (below).
Documented as uncheckable, not approximated:
utxosandreservesat the Shelley→Allegra boundary. ESTART reclaims the unredeemed AVVM UTxOs there, moving value between exactly those two by an amount it reads out of the UTxO set and never records. That one boundary compares every other pot; both of these are still compared at every other boundary.EndStats, or no live pparams to choose the Byron or Shelley delta path. The snapshot's completeness is check 4's finding; check 5 reports which pots went unchecked because of it.epochslog does not hold both sides of. Left unchecked rather than assumed good.2. Vote delegation referents, stated narrowly
Three rules, each taken from the ledger code that maintains the invariant rather than from a guess about the ledger:
drep_to_entity_keyderives the key from the identifier, class prefix included, so a row reached through aDRep::Keythat identifies itself as aDRep::Scriptwas not written by the node.BoundaryWork::clears_drep_delegationdrops every delegation older than a retirement, once, at the boundaryis_retiring_drepfires on. A live delegation older than a retirement in an earlier epoch is that drop missing. A delegation newer than the retirement is not covered — the ledger accepts it, no boundary clears it — and is not reported.BoundaryWork::pv10_migration). ADRepStaterow is never deleted — retirement and expiry are flags written onto it — so a credential with no row never registered at all, and a delegation to one that predates the migration boundary is one the migration should have cleared. A delegation made after it is legitimate again and is not reported: that is the shape the two preprod accounts have.Rules 2 and 3 each need a position on the chain (the live epoch's start slot; the slot protocol major 10 became live). A store that cannot place one — no era summaries, or an
epochslog that does not span the fork — does not run the rule that needs it. Unplaceable is a reason to stay silent, never to guess.DRep::AbstainandDRep::NoConfidenceare predefined targets rather than credentials and name no row by design; no rule applies to them.Verification
Unit and harness fixtures — one per newly asserted rule, each against a deliberately corrupted store, each paired with the intact case:

ToyDomainstore — the namespaces, the key derivation and the iterators are the ones the node uses — but pass theAnchorsrather than reading them off the store: the harness chain is parked on epoch 0, where every chain position it could place collapses to slot 0 and neither dated rule can be stated at all.A real mainnet store (645 logged epochs,
~/dolos-instances/mainnet-gov, protocol major 0 → 11, including the Shelley→Allegra AVVM boundary and the PV10 fork at epoch 537):Both issues are the pre-existing tip comparison on a store that was interrupted mid-rebuild. Every one of the 645 boundary hand-offs replayed exactly, and not one account was flagged by any of the three vote rules — across the whole mainnet account set, with
pv10_boundaryplaced at epoch 537. A check that were wrong about the ledger here would have fired hundreds of times.A real preprod store (
~/dolos-instances/preprod-datacheck, bootstrapped offline from the shared mithril snapshot, every store at slot 131284793,epochslog spanning 0..=306 — the Shelley→Allegra AVVM boundary and the PV10 fork both inside it):All 306 boundary hand-offs replayed exactly, and no account was flagged by any of the three vote rules.
What the two real stores actually hold, so the silence is not silence about an empty set. A census over both state stores (accounts iterated the way the check iterates them, referents resolved through the same
drep_to_entity_key):DRepStaterowunregistered)DRepStaterowsTwo things follow. Rule 2 is exercised and green: both networks hold hundreds of retired DRep rows, and not one live delegation on either network is older than its referent's retirement — which is exactly the invariant
BoundaryWork::clears_drep_delegationis supposed to maintain. Expiry is correctly not retirement: 4,272 delegations across the two networks name an expired DRep and none is reported.One correction to the plan's premise. The plan expects two preprod accounts delegating to DRep credentials with no row, and asks that they stay green. Neither this preprod store nor the mainnet store holds any such delegation today — the count is 0 on both. So rule 3 (the PV10 migration rule), the rule those two accounts motivated, never fires on real data here, and its non-firing on these stores is trivially true rather than evidence. What proves rule 3 both ways is the fixture pair:
a_vote_delegation_the_migration_should_have_dropped_is_reportedanda_delegation_to_an_unregistered_drep_made_after_the_migration_is_not_reported. The rule ships as written — it is the rule the migration code justifies — but this is a finding for the plan's owner rather than the confirmation the done criterion asked for.The gate:
