Removes code_revision from the engine-identity hash: engine_identity is now the
sha256 of the 5 ratified packs ONLY. The build revision is provenance (the
manifest's written_at_revision), not identity — so a behavior-neutral rebuild is
the SAME identity and the always-on daemon no longer flag-day strict-breaks on
every commit (the ADR-0220 defect).
Core:
- core/engine_identity.py: ratified_substrate/compute_engine_identity drop the
git_revision arg (packs-only); add compute_legacy_engine_identity (reproduces
the pre-split packs+rev hash, for migration verification), ENGINE_IDENTITY_SCHEME=2,
IdentityReconciliation enum, and reconcile_loaded_identity — the single source of
truth for the runtime guard AND the workbench reader.
- chat/runtime.py: the load guard reconciles via scheme. Current scheme -> direct
packs-only compare. Legacy (code_revision-folded) stamp -> a VERIFYING migration:
reconstruct the legacy hash from the persisted written_at_revision; a match proves
packs unchanged (warn + re-stamp, resume, no break) — a mismatch means the packs
genuinely changed (DIVERGED -> strict-refuse). Preserves 'distinct packs => refuse'.
- engine_state/save_manifest: stamp identity_scheme alongside engine_identity
(additive-optional; no schema_version bump).
- workbench/readers.py: continuity reader uses the same reconcile (no phantom break
on legacy checkpoints). cli.py break message reworded (packs, not 'build revision').
Callsite cleanup: drop the now-unused git_revision arg + imports across
always_on.py, evals/l10_always_on/runner.py, workbench/readers.py.
Tests:
- test_identity_provenance_split.py (new): 5 reconcile unit proofs + 3 runtime
integration proofs incl. the wrong=identity defense (legacy stamp of DIFFERENT
packs still strict-refuses) and the re-stamp migration.
- test_engine_identity.py: invert the code-revision test (rev no longer changes
identity); assert the substrate is packs-only.
- Restore 3 lineage tests silently red since ADR-0219 (flat-path _manifest helper
now resolves the gen-dir).
- Update remaining callsites/monkeypatches for the new signature.
Hygiene: .gitignore now covers the ADR-0219 gen-dir runtime files
(current, gen-*/, session_state.json, proposals.jsonl).
Verified: 59 identity/migration/lineage/workbench + 32 L10 + 76 invariants/cli +
34 smoke pass; serving lane SHAs unchanged (no derivation/reliability_gate touch).
Builds the L11 lived-spine half on top of Shape B+ T-resume: prove the
continuous/resumed life is the SAME identity, with a content-derived, hash-chained
lineage and a falsifiable behavioral proof.
- core/engine_identity.py (L11-1): EngineIdentity = sha256 of the ratified
PERSONALITY substrate (identity/safety/ethics/register/anchor-lens pack files)
+ code revision. Content-derived, NOT entropy — same substrate => same identity
(cross-engine portable). The "who am I" hash; bumped by a ratified identity
change, NOT by lived learning (that is experience, carried by Shape B+).
- engine_state + chat/runtime (L11-2): every checkpoint manifest stamps
engine_identity + parent_engine_identity (git-like lineage). Stable substrate
=> identity == parent (one continuous life); a ratified change => the bump.
- chat/runtime + config (L11-3): on reboot, recompute identity and compare to the
stamped one. Mismatch (substrate changed while down) surfaces a warning +
identity_continuity_break flag; strict_identity_continuity (opt-in) refuses
(IdentityContinuityError). Default warns — reboot is recovery, not control flow
(ADR-0157); the operator must not be bricked by a benign ratified pack swap.
- tests (L11-4): the proof. Continuity is SUFFICIENT (byte-identical resume +
no break under a fixed identity), identity is LOAD-BEARING (distinct packs =>
distinct hashes), and the CONTRAPOSITIVE holds (resuming under a different
identity raises the break). Same identity <=> continuous; different => break.
Test hygiene (required by L11's always-on identity stamping): conftest isolates
the default engine_state dir per test; the refusal-calibration cold-start probe
uses no_load_state=True. Both prevent cross-test identity-lineage pollution.
19 dedicated tests; curated smoke green (no spurious break warnings).
