ADR-0044 — Medical / clinical ethics pack (worked-example domain pack).
Ships packs/ethics/medical_clinical_ethics_v1.json with six commitments
partitioned across all three remediation tiers:
- refuse: no_dosing_recommendation, no_emergency_triage_authority
- hedge: defer_diagnosis_to_clinician, surface_evidence_grade
- audit: disclose_no_clinician_relationship, respect_patient_autonomy
Ratified end-to-end through scripts/ratify_ethics_pack.py (PACK_IDS
extended). Production-mode load via load_ethics_pack succeeds.
ChatRuntime composition includes universal safety floor + every medical
commitment. tests/test_medical_clinical_ethics_pack.py (8 tests) gates
file existence, sealed report, disjoint refusal/hedge lists, and
pack-swap visibility (default pack does NOT carry medical commitments).
ADR-0045 — Long-context recall: CORE vs transformer baselines.
Adds evals/long_context_cost/comparison_runner.py with a deterministic
needle-in-a-haystack measurement at N ∈ {100, 1_000, 10_000, 100_000}.
CORE recall = 100% at every tested N by exact cga_inner scan.
Paired with frozen citations of published transformer NIAH numbers in
evals/long_context_cost/baselines/transformer_long_context.json:
Claude 2.1 (200k, 50%), GPT-4 Turbo 128k (~71%), Gemini 1.5 Pro (99.7%),
NVIDIA RULER (varies). Each citation carries source + url.
The two components measure different inputs (synthetic versors vs NL
needles) and are not directly comparable benchmark-for-benchmark. The
comparison is at the architectural level — exact-scan recall vs
attention-based probabilistic recall. Scope and limits documented in
the ADR. tests/test_long_context_comparison.py (5 tests) gates schema,
CORE recall == 100%, and baseline citation presence.
CLI integration: two new demo targets with study-grade preambles.
- core demo pack-measurements (ADR-0043 — wired)
- core demo long-context-comparison (ADR-0045)

index extended with ADR-0044 + ADR-0045; pack-layer chain title now
