# CHG-12 stored-data reproduction

This deterministic PHP fixture demonstrates the mechanism in “Stored Data Is a
Caller You Cannot Find with Code Search.”

It proves four synthetic cases:

- the current canonical value hydrates;
- one historical lowercase value fails under strict enum hydration;
- a bounded compatibility reader accepts and canonicalizes that value; and
- the compatibility reader still rejects an unknown value.

Run:

```sh
php experiment.php
```

The fixture models parser behavior. It is not a private schema, database
backfill, affected-row inventory, or production incident replay.
