About this date-specific answer key
The answer list is supported by the two third-party guides above. The official NYT puzzle page was not accessible for verification, so the original grid was not independently checked. Parade’s guide says the Mini resets at 10 p.m.; that is its timing note, not a statement about the game’s current release schedule.
