Categorified Hochschild colored complex conjecture for knots

Let KS3K\subset S^3 be a framed oriented knot and let XCh(BNn)X\in\operatorname{Ch}^-(\mathsf{BN}_n) be a complex of nn-strand Bar–Natan 1-morphisms. Let C(K,Vn)C(K,V_n) denote the VnV_n-colored complex from the functorial colored knot homology conjecture, and let PnP_n be the Cooper–Krushkal categorified Jones–Wenzl idempotent. Categorified Hochschild colored complex conjecture. Each complex XCh(BNn)X\in\operatorname{Ch}^-(\mathsf{BN}_n) determines a colored complex

C(K,X)Ch(κmod).C'(K,X)\in\operatorname{Ch}^-(\kappa\mathrm{-mod}).

The assignment XC(K,X)X\mapsto C'(K,X) is functorial in XX in the sense that it factors through the dg quantum horizontal trace. Furthermore,

C(K,Pn)C(K,Vn)C'(K,P_n)\simeq C(K,V_n)

up to homotopy. This conjecture seeks a categorified replacement for the trace-based colored knot invariant, with functoriality supplied by the dg quantum horizontal trace; the supplied text gives no proof or resolution.
