Title: Computing the Random 3-SAT Threshold.

Abstract: The limiting satisfiability threshold of uniform random 3-SAT is a computable real. We credit Gaia Carenini [[4]](https://eccc.weizmann.ac.il/report/2026/229/) with priority for resolving the satisfiability conjecture, which establishes the threshold's existence. We prove that one finite deterministic machine can approximate it to any prescribed accuracy. A deletion estimate gives explicit lower certificates, while a finite hierarchical approximation of the soft pressure gives upper certificates at every larger rational density. A fair search through these certificates halts without requiring a computable rate of finite-size convergence.

This abstract is a catalogue record. It is not a verification and not a premise. It does not close O.1. O.1 stays NOT_CLOSED. No quantum coefficient is admitted. No compilation is asserted.
