Before
absolute series of declared alternating tail:DECLARED whole positive tail b_k=1/(k+8),k>=0;shift>0
After
b_k decreases to0:for ANY epsilon>0 choose N with N+shift>1/epsilon,then every k>=N has b_k<epsilon
Conditions: none
Increasing denominators and an Archimedean cutoff supply the all-later bound for every epsilon,not an inference from the displayed prefix.

Before
absolute series of declared alternating tail:same full absolute/positive series over denominators m=8,9,...
After
for every integer j>=0 large enough that2^j>=shift-1,the block m=2^j+1..2^(j+1) has2^j terms each>=1/2^(j+1);each block sum>=1/2;infinitely many disjoint blocks make partial sums unbounded
Conditions: none
Removing finitely many initial terms leaves the dyadic-block argument.Each sufficiently late block contributes at least1/2,so arbitrarily many disjoint blocks force unbounded partial sums.Terms tending to zero do not give a finite limit of partial sums.

b_k positive decreasing to0;even S_2m increases by b_2m-b_(2m+1)>=0;odd S_(2m+1) decreases;0<=S_2m<=S_(2m+1)<=b_0=1/8;gap b_2m tends0
Conditions: none
Positive decreasing magnitudes make even partial sums increase and odd partial sums decrease while bounding one another.Real completeness gives both limits,and their vanishing gap makes them equal,so the whole partial-sum sequence converges.Alternation or a term-zero condition alone is not a general criterion.

After
common limit L lies between these two endpoints;abs(L-S_n)<=1/13;original series converges=Yes;absolute harmonic series converges=No
Conditions: none
The whole-tail alternating certificate traps the common limit between adjacent partial sums and gives the next-term error bound.The separate dyadic argument proves divergence of the absolute series.Both certificates establish conditional convergence;the displayed finite list alone proves neither infinite claim.
