Exact divisor-count structure is the source; RH is the downstream pole-placement sentence after that structure is compressed into zeta language.
The required reading order is:
divisor counts -> PGS local theorems -> DNI-to-zeta compression
-> source-to-spectral placement target -> pole placement/RH sentence
docs/rh is the affirmative narrative spine for the PGS-to-RH documentation
bundle. It starts from arithmetic objects the reader can inspect directly:
divisor counts, consecutive prime-gap interiors, and the selected integer
inside each nonempty gap. It then moves through the local theorem authority,
the exact DNI-to-zeta compression, the source-to-spectral placement target,
and the pole-placement language that gives the RH-facing sentence.
This folder is the bundle index and source-order guide. The FAQ remains the
objection-handling surface. Note (post-archival): The detailed research/12-rh-bridge workbench material (classical completion strategy, loop infrastructure, etc.) has been moved outside the repository to /Users/velocityworks/prime-gap-structure-archives/2026-05-classical-rh-bridge-completion-route/ due to classical drift and prompt injection concerns. See the pointer at research/12-rh-bridge/README.md and the ARCHIVAL_HANDOFF.md there.
The public narrative spine in docs/rh/ remains, but deep technical workbench content is no longer on the live surface.
For Zero-Excess DNI Phase 1, zero-excess is an exact coordinate reformulation. The zero-excess floor is integer-side; the critical line is zeta-side.

The bundle begins with ordered arithmetic and ends with RH vocabulary. Zeta zeros enter after the divisor-count source and exact compression have been stated. The FAQ carries objection handling; this folder carries the main claim. The spine is constructive:
- Count divisors on the integer line.
- Read the finite interior between consecutive primes.
- Apply the local PGS theorems controlled by
PROOF.md. - Compress the same divisor-count source into the DNI zeta ratio.
- Apply the source-side residual test and its current obstruction for off-critical poles.
- Translate the continued ratio into pole-placement/RH language.
- Use the explicit-formula bridge only as downstream translation into
Lambda,psi, zero-term, and error-term language.
PROOF.md controls local PGS theorem status. It does not itself prove RH.
The remaining bridge is source-to-spectral placement: chamber geometry and
