Six contained-tier gap closures from the cross-phase gap audit.
Every gaps.md file involved gains a resolution block; the historical
findings are preserved for traceability.
Identity (teaching/review.py)
- _ROLE_FRAMES gains the philosophical-axis family (axiology, ontology,
telos, ethos, epistemology, morality, ethics, virtues, norms,
doctrine, creed, convictions, beliefs, values, principles).
- _REDIRECT_VERBS gains the dismissal family (disregard, dismiss,
bypass, circumvent, renounce, reject, repudiate).
- Closes multi_agent_composition holdout MAC-HOLD-001 ("disregard your
axiology") and the matching adversarial_identity gap.
- Multi-agent holdouts: 8/8 attacks rejected, 3/3 legits accepted.
Pipeline (core/cognition/pipeline.py + docs/runtime_contracts.md)
- When the unknown-domain gate fires, ChatRuntime returns the
"I don't have field coordinates for that yet." stub and
vault_hits == 0. The pipeline now honours that stub as the
user-facing surface instead of overriding with the realizer's
fallback articulation. walk_surface is unchanged either way.
- New contract test
tests/test_semantic_realizer_integration.py::test_pipeline_honours_safety_stub_when_gate_fires
locks the contract; the existing semantic-surface test now primes
the vault first so the gate doesn't fire on the probe.
- Closes calibration gaps.md Finding 2.
Realizer morphology (generate/morphology.py)
- G1: ~100-entry irregular-verb table replaces the previous list which
contained only regular forms. Includes bind→bound, run→ran,
stand→stood, write→wrote/written, eat→ate/eaten, fly→flew/flown,
swim→swam/swum, etc.
- CVC doubling rule for -ed and -ing (stop→stopped/stopping,
plan→planned, run→running).
- Short-ies disambiguation (die/lie/tie keep -ie- in the base; cry/fly
collapse to -y). Lie is also irregular (lay/lain) — uses
_IRREGULAR_FORMS first.
- 28-case regression test (tests/test_morphology_irregular.py).
Realizer plural agreement (generate/templates.py)
- G2: under universal/existential/many/few/most quantifiers, count-noun
subjects pluralise (molecule → molecules) and the verb de-conjugates
(binds → bind). Negation toggles does-not → do-not. Aspect toggles
has → have, is → are. All other constructions unchanged.
- Mass nouns (evidence, wisdom, knowledge, truth, water, …) stay
singular under quantifiers — "all evidence supports truth" is right;
"all evidences support" would be wrong English.
- 17-case regression test
(tests/test_realizer_quantifier_agreement.py) covering count vs mass,
irregular plurals (child→children, analysis→analyses), and the
quantifier-tense / quantifier-aspect / quantifier-negation grid.
Rubric punctuation tolerance (evals/grammatical_coverage/runner.py)
- G3: _check_word_order strips trailing/leading punctuation
(.,;:!?—–) before exact-word comparison so "river," still satisfies
word_order=["river"]. must_contain also accepts punctuation-
stripped token matches.
- Affects every lane that uses grammatical_coverage scoring; the OOD
case generators no longer need to pin punctuated accept_surfaces for
C06.
Case generator + lane regeneration
- scripts/generate_english_fluency_ood.py uses generate.templates.pluralize
for C07/C08 must_contain + word_order so case-side constraints stay
aligned with the (more correct) realizer.
- All Phase 5 OOD lane cases (5.1, 5.4–5.7) regenerated; results files
re-scored.
CLI (core/cli.py)
- cmd_eval no longer crashes on lanes whose case_details use "id"
instead of "case_id" (adversarial_identity, multi_agent_composition).
- Cognition CLI lane gains the two new morphology/quantifier
regression test files.
Lane sweep (all 100%, no regression):
english_fluency_ood 117/117 public + 39/39 holdouts
elementary_mathematics_ood 117/117 + 39/39
foundational_physics_ood 117/117 + 39/39
foundational_biology_ood 117/117 + 39/39
classical_literature_ood 117/117 + 39/39
grammatical_coverage back to 100% on its own seed cases
hebrew_fluency / koine_greek_fluency 3/3 each
CLI lane health:
smoke 54, runtime 19, teaching 17, packs 6, cognition 103 (was 57),
algebra 132.
First Phase 5 lane. Tests whether the deterministic realizer
produces grammatical English across all 13 C01-C13 constructions
when the (subject, predicate, object) vocabulary is outside the
en_core_cognition_v1 seed pack. Four OOD domains: nature, tech,
domestic (public), chemistry (holdouts).
Public 117/117 (100%) and holdouts 39/39 (100%) — every
construction passes on every domain. Realizer fluency is
mechanistic and pack-independent; the Phase 5 capability story
rests on a sound structural bet.
Known v1 gaps (designed around to isolate the structural
claim): G1 irregular past tense (realizer applies -ed
unconditionally), G2 plural agreement under quantifiers (no
pluralisation of subjects under "all"/"some"), G3 rubric-side
punctuation strictness in shared _check_word_order. All three
are documented in gaps.md with bounded follow-on lanes.
Scoring is delegated to evals.grammatical_coverage.runner so the
rubric stays consistent. Cases generated by
scripts/generate_english_fluency_ood.py for reproducibility.
