# P0b-2: FAIL (2026-10-11)

## ChatGPT's answer (pasted by operator)
> I opened your link and found these instructions: "Your access code isn't on this page. To get it, open `code/heron/` (relative to this page)." I attempted to open the specified address: https://trial-host.invalid/t/P0b-2/code/heron/ . Unfortunately, the page was inaccessible through my browsing tool. I haven't been able to verify the exact access code. Please open that second link and paste its contents here so I can identify the code exactly.

## Server log
- 05:50:42.748Z GET /t/P0b-2/ → 200, ChatGPT-User/1.0 (index retrieved)
- **No request for /t/P0b-2/code/heron/ from ChatGPT.**
- 05:51:05Z GET /t/P0b-2/code/heron/ → 200, operator-verification/curl: independent reachability check, about 20 s after the trial. Returned P0B-C541AA26C9

## Verdict
**FAIL**, identical in pattern to P0b-1: the constructed absolute URL was correct, the browsing tool reported it
inaccessible, no request reached the server, and no code was invented.
