A local test does not establish a secondary eclipse of WASP-132 b in TESS sectors 11, 38 and 65

We test released WASP-132 photometry for a secondary eclipse with a fixed 3.2-hour template. At the time from orbit medians, six events give a depth of 197 parts per million with an event-scatter error of 118. A conditional event bootstrap gives a 95 percent range from -27 to 389. The fit changes sign at circular phase 0.5. Timing scans with a fixed event set show that gaps do not explain all phase sensitivity. Three of 53 correlated control-phase depths exceed the target depth. Synthetic tests show limited sensitivity near 100 parts per million. A simple reflected-light scale is 41 parts per million for geometric albedo one. We do not establish an eclipse or constrain ordinary reflection. These are released data from one instrument, with no independent eclipse confirmation or pixel test. The package contains original code, aggregate fits, figures, input hashes and external retrieval steps. No external source records are bundled.
