`lab` and the public `dev` line share only the repository's first commit as a merge base, so `git log lab..dev` lists two thousand commits that are almost all already present on both sides under different SHAs. Nothing in that output says which public fixes never reached `lab`, which is the only question that matters before `lab` becomes a release. `scripts/ref_parity_audit.py` samples the most distinctive added lines from each commit in the range and searches the other tree for them with `git grep -F`, then reports the file-level presence diff. The two complement each other: a commit whose probes are all found while one of the files it added is missing from the target is a fix whose production change was reproduced without its test, which the line sampling alone cannot see. Probes are stripped of indentation and searched for anywhere in the tree, so a port that moved or was re-indented still reads as present. Verdicts are absent / partial / present / no-probe, and the report says outright that the commit verdicts are a heuristic while the two file lists are exact. Read-only by construction: `git log`, `show`, `diff`, `grep`, `ls-tree` and `merge-base` only, no remote access, and it does not import the app package.
