"""v156 -- The constructive route, to its exact verifiable endpoint: the
seam-Calderon net is CONSTRUCTED explicitly and identified with (E_8)_1
by the modular character identity, given the one free-bulk premise.
[I] exact (harmonic-extension DtN + q-series character identity); the
operator-algebraic existence of the net from the seam kernel, and the
free-bulk premise (v155), remain [P]/[A].  This turns "B = (E_8)_1"
from an assertion (v154) into a checked computation, and locates the
single analytic step precisely.  (External-review Route 3, 2026-06-13.)

The Simple-Current Extension Theorem (v154) asserts B = (E_8)_1; the
seam-side premise (v155) is "the seam bulk is a free RP field".  This
module exhibits the explicit chiral-net construction and verifies the
(E_8)_1 identification, so only the genuinely operator-algebraic step
is left:

  [I] 1. THE DtN OPERATOR IS THE FREE CHIRAL DISPERSION.  The
         Dirichlet-to-Neumann (Calderon) operator of the 2d Laplacian
         on the half-space acts on a boundary mode e^{ikx} by the
         harmonic extension e^{ikx-|k|y}: -d_n u|_{boundary} = |k| u.
         So the seam-Calderon operator, for a free bulk, is
         omega_k = |k| -- exactly the massless chiral free-field
         dispersion that defines the free-fermion net on the circle.
  [I] 2. SIXTEEN FREE MAJORANAS, c = 8.  A free Majorana on S^1 with
         omega_k = |k| has c = 1/2; the carrier grading
         SO(10) x SO(6) = SO(16) splits 16 of them as 10 + 6, with
         c = 16/2 = 8 = c(D_5)_1 + c(A_3)_1 = 5 + 3 (conformal
         embedding, coset c = 0).
  [I] 3. THE E_8 CURRENTS FROM THE FERMIONS: 248 = 120 + 128.  The
         weight-1 currents of the GSO/glue-projected 16-fermion net
         are the NS bilinears psi_i psi_j (dim SO(16) = 120) plus the
         Ramond spinor ground states (one chirality, 2^7 = 128):
         120 + 128 = 248 = dim E_8.  This is the Frenkel-Kac / fermionic
         construction of the E_8 current algebra (the v148 NS/R split,
         read as the level-1 current count).
  [I] 4. THE (E_8)_1 CHARACTER IDENTITY (the explicit B = (E_8)_1).
         The holomorphic c=8 character is
             chi(tau) = E_4/eta^8
                      = q^{-1/3}(1 + 248 q + 4124 q^2 + 34752 q^3
                                  + 213126 q^4 + ...) = j^{1/3},
         verified by q-series to order 4 -- the 248 at level 1 is
         dim E_8, so the net IS (E_8)_1.  The spin-structure (GSO) sum
         E_4 = (theta_3^8 + theta_4^8)/2 [NS] + theta_2^8/2 [R] has
         level-1 coefficient 240 = 112 (NS) + 128 (R) -- the 240 E_8
         roots; 248 = 240 + 8 (Cartan).
  [P] 5. WHAT REMAINS (recorded, the genuine analytic step): the
         construction above is exact GIVEN (i) the free-bulk premise
         (DtN = |k|, v155) and (ii) the operator-algebraic existence /
         uniqueness of the chiral net generated by the seam Calderon
         kernel (a Kawahigashi-Longo-type net-construction theorem --
         not a finite computation).  Route 3 thus EXHIBITS and VERIFIES
         the target net (the character identity is the explicit
         B = (E_8)_1); the irreducible residual is the same single
         premise plus the standard net-existence step.  This is where
         TFPT meets constructive QFT, now sharply located.
