The final AGI-spine step (A INSTRUMENT → B WIRE → C DEEPEN → D CLOSE → E ESTIMATION).
The engine may now SERVE a DISCLOSED estimate for a query it would otherwise refuse —
but only for a predicate-class that has measured itself reliable, and never as fact.
This executes the ADR-0206 §5 cognition-path widening: the bridge's LICENSE node
(reliability_gate.license_for), previously "built — not yet called from serving", is now
called. govern_response returns APPROXIMATE iff a genuine licensed Action.SERVE
LicenseDecision is passed (STRICT for every other input — so every existing serving call
site is byte-identical); shape_surface DISCLOSES the estimate as "[approximate] …".
Mechanism:
- generate/determine/estimate.py — a BLIND converse-guesser: told p(a,b), asked p(b,a),
it commits the converse. It never reads the pack's symmetry metadata; whether the guess
is right is MEASURED, not assumed.
- evals/determination_estimation/ — the gold lane: run_practice (sealed, ADR-0199) folds
the converse-guesser over symmetric (sibling_of) vs directed (parent_of) cases, scored
against the pack's graph.edge.symmetric truth (gold independent of the solver). The gate
DISCRIMINATES: sibling_of earns SERVE (660 correct → Wilson floor 0.990046 ≥ θ_SERVE),
parent_of does not (660 wrong → 0.0). The license is earned by VOLUME — 657 perfect
commits is the exact θ_SERVE=0.99 threshold (656 is below).
- generate/determine/data/estimation_ledger.json — the ratified committed ledger,
hash-verified on load (a hand-edited ledger raises RatifiedLedgerError); it IS the
deterministic sealed-practice output (a GSM8K-style --check test pins this).
- chat/runtime.py — when a converse query is refused and the class holds a SERVE license,
the disclosed estimate is surfaced through the bridge (gated by config.estimation_enabled,
default OFF; only meaningful with accrue_realized_knowledge).
Invariants:
- wrong=0 by construction — an estimate is ALWAYS disclosed ([approximate]), never a silent
commit (UNVERIFIED_POSSIBLE is never in APPROXIMATE's admissible set), and only a genuine
ratified license widens (a forged {"licensed":True} dict / a PROPOSE license / an
unlicensed SERVE all stay STRICT). Defense-in-depth: type-gate ∧ admissible-set ∧
hardcoded disclosed state.
- never self-authored — ceilings stay at safe defaults (θ_SERVE=0.99); the engine cannot
raise its own bar. The ledger is sealed practice, hash-verified.
- session/serving only — no corpus/pack/identity/proposal/vault mutation; the HITL teaching
path is untouched. Deterministic; no clock/random.
- byte-identical for every non-E turn (the 2643 govern_response call passes no license).
Out of scope (separate ADR-0206 §5 PRs): the math-serving seam (select_self_verified,
touches the sealed metric), SITUATE (stakes), and the live FEED-BACK loop.
Verified green: smoke (90), architectural invariants (56), response_governance (321,
incl. the new license-gated widening test), the determination-estimation lane (12), and
the B/D/determine regression net. Four-lens adversarial review (disclosure/wrong=0,
calibration integrity, byte-identity, boundary/determinism): all held. Design:
docs/analysis/E-estimation-design-2026-06-06.md.
Review/ratification pass over the 6-phase afferent environment-falsification
roadmap (rebased onto D-inclusive main). The roadmap validated green: smoke (90),
architectural invariants (56), the full sensorium suite, all phase tests, and the
four eval lanes (environment-falsification / event-vision / vision / sensorimotor)
report failed:0. A five-lens adversarial review found the efferent gate
fail-closed (default-deny, conjunctive safety∧ethics∧tool_scope, refuses before
the decoder, hash-only traces, no real decoder, no overclaim), the afferent
Phases 1-5 read-only (runtime import-guards + frozen dataclasses), and the
expected-artifact obligations deterministic + meaningfully-failing. Two
reconciliations from that review:
1. Witness-log importer trust boundary (sensorium/logs/importer.py). The offline
JSONL importer now rejects malformed input with a deterministic ValueError
instead of a raw JSONDecodeError/KeyError, names the 1-based line on a bad
JSON line, rejects non-object records and non-integer ticks, and size-caps the
file (8 MiB) so an oversized log is refused rather than read whole. The trust
boundary is now stated in the module + function docstrings. Behavior for VALID
logs is byte-identical (the environment-falsification lane hashes are
unchanged). New rejection-path tests added.
2. ADR-0198 reconciliation. The §3 verdict-enforcing GATE mechanism
(VerdictEnforcingEfferentGate + MotorActionIntent) has now landed, so the
Implementation Status is amended to say so — while being explicit that the §3
lowering itself (deriving verdicts from the ADR-0029/0033/0036/0037 governance
packs), the motor decoder (every adapter is decoder=None), and ratification by
the dedicated motor governance ADR (now drafted as ADR-0216, Proposed) all
remain deferred. No physical motor decode is authorized.
Disjoint from the GSM8K serving path and from Step D (generate/determine|realize,
chat/runtime, core/config) — clean rebase, no overlap.
CLOSE the autonomous-loop spine: when idle, the engine consolidates each
soundly-derived determination back into the held self, so the next determine()
reaches it directly and can chain one hop further. The directly-answerable set
climbs monotonically across idle ticks to the deductive-closure fixed point.
Mechanism — generate/determine/consolidate.py::consolidate_once runs ONE
semi-naive layer of the member/subset deductive closure (member∘subset → member,
subset∘subset → subset; NEVER member∘member — instance-of is not transitive).
Each one-hop conclusion not yet realized is VERIFIED by the sound+complete
proof_chain ROBDD (reusing C's single verifier _verify_subsumption) and written
back via generate/realize::realize_derived as a SPECULATIVE realized record
carrying derived-provenance (premise structure_keys + rule + the ENTAILED
verdict). idle_tick gains a consolidation pass gated by the new
config.consolidate_determinations (default OFF); IdleTickResult.facts_consolidated
reports the layer.
Invariants held:
- wrong=0 — every consolidated fact is a sound-rule conclusion confirmed by the
sound+complete decider; member∘member is structurally unreachable (a member fact
is only ever extended by a subset edge). _verify_subsumption now refuses a
mislabeled/wrong-arity path (belt-and-suspenders now that consolidation is a
second caller), so the fallacy cannot be laundered through a corrupted chain.
- honesty — a fact derived from SPECULATIVE premises stays SPECULATIVE / as-told;
the soundness of the inference never upgrades the standing of the premises.
COHERENT is never minted.
- teaching-safety — SESSION memory (immediate), an extension of the realize path;
NOT corpus mutation and NOT coupled to proposals. The HITL path is untouched.
- determinism/replay — pure function of the realized set; sorted write order;
derived structure_key identical to a told fact's; provenance round-trips through
the Shape B+ snapshot (consolidated facts resume the SAME life across reboot).
- no new normalization — writes reuse the INV-21-allowed vault writer;
algebra/versor.py keeps closure.
Falsification — evals/determination_closure: a frozen replay seeds a deep is-a
chain and runs idle ticks; asserts the closure climbs monotonically to a complete
fixed point (no-op final tick), wrong=0 (member∘member canary never derived, no
fabricated membership), all derived facts SPECULATIVE, and every derived record
re-verifies ENTAILED from its recorded premises.
Verified green: smoke, runtime, cognition, architectural invariants, plus the new
D unit + lane tests and the determine/realize/persistence regression net. Five-lens
adversarial review: 4 lenses held; the 5th (normalization) was a misattribution
(pre-existing vault reproject, triggered identically by the merged realize path,
on sanctioned null-vector storage). Design + findings: docs/analysis/
D-close-consolidation-design-2026-06-06.md.
DETERMINE was one-hop. C answers a member/subset query that holds by SOUND transitive
subsumption when direct entailment misses: member∘subset* and subset∘subset (the
Description-Logic is-a rules). 'Socrates is a man. All men are mortal. Is Socrates
mortal?' -> yes, as told.
wrong=0 hazard surfaced and closed: member∘member is NOT transitive (instance-of vs
subclass-of) — 'Socrates is a man. Man is a species.' does NOT entail 'Socrates is a
species'. That rule is NEVER an edge, so the fallacy is unreachable (bite-tested). The
reader's member/subset split (X is a Y vs all Xs are Ys) is exactly the instance-of/
subclass-of distinction that makes the included rules sound.
Mechanism: SEARCH-then-VERIFY. Reachability over the sound edges finds the chain, then
the proof_chain ROBDD verifies that chain's propositional entailment (O(path) premises).
Full O(n³) grounding into proof_chain was tried and rejected: it overruns the
canonicalizer's per-conjunct recursion, and transitive closure is reachability, not
general SAT. Search-then-verify scales (11-hop chain determines in ~2ms) and keeps the
sound+complete decider as the wrong=0 verifier + proof artifact.
subset is now a supported direct-entailment predicate (a told subset(a,b) answers it);
the other categoricals (disjoint/intersects/some_not) stay excluded. Two existing tests
updated accordingly (subset->ungrounded, disjoint stays unsupported_query).
When accrue_realized_knowledge is on and a question turn is Determined over realized
knowledge, the user-facing surface IS that answer (generate.determine.render_determination):
'Yes — as I was told, truth is a concept.' The realizer's articulation_surface is
RETAINED as evidence — the determination is a user-facing SELECTION (like the
unknown-domain gate), not a rewrite. An Undetermined turn keeps the default
articulation surface (the honest 'I don't know'); flag-off never takes this path.
Basis is rendered honestly: SPECULATIVE grounds read 'as I was told', never 'verified'
(D0 only asserts answer=True, so the surface is an affirmation — no fabricated or
asserted-False string). Selection only: no field op, no normalization, proposes no
learning (HITL untouched).
Updates docs/runtime_contracts.md selection policy + adds the contract test in the
same PR (per the surface-contract discipline).
Wires comprehend->realize/determine into the live turn loop: a declarative turn
REALIZES a fact into the held self (session vault, SPECULATIVE/as-told); a question
turn is DETERMINED over realized knowledge (answered as-told, or refused open-world).
The first time a CORE conversation actually accumulates knowledge it can recall and
reason over — the 'one continuous life' telos made real, including across reboot
(the accrued fact is in the Shape B+ snapshot, so it survives the process ending).
Seam: all chat() returns funnel through _checkpointed_response; accrual runs there
BEFORE the checkpoint (so the fact persists this turn), gated by a new
accrue_realized_knowledge flag (default OFF — one-shot/eval runtimes don't accrue;
the production L10 process enables it with persist_session_state).
Discipline: SESSION memory, not ratified learning — proposes nothing, HITL untouched.
Realization writes go through generate.realize (INV-21 allowed writer). Additive: a
failure is a clean no-op, never crashes a turn. Slice B-1 RECORDS the outcome
(last_turn_accrual(), introspectable) and leaves the ChatResponse/surface contract
UNCHANGED; surfacing the determination is the B-2 follow-up (needs runtime_contracts
+ contract-test updates).
Tests: declarative accrues; question determines as_told; untold refuses open-world;
idempotent retell not recreated; flag-off no-ops with identical surface; and the
lived-spine proof — accrued knowledge survives reboot (determined as_told after a
fresh runtime over the same checkpoint).
A2 of the refined sequencing. Proves (deterministically, not by assertion) what a
long-running CORE life costs to persist per turn on a constrained offline device.
Measures the Shape B+ checkpoint BYTES per turn (session_state.json) over the real
turn loop — bytes, not wall-clock latency (machine-dependent → flaky). Reuses the L10
continuity corpus.
Measured cliff: save_session_state re-serializes the FULL snapshot every turn, so
per-turn bytes are O(n) in the accumulated life — 3,811 → 88,189 bytes (23x) over 24
turns, ~1.3KB/vault-entry re-written every turn. That blocks continuous-life at the edge.
The gate encodes the edge REQUIREMENT (≤16 KiB/turn regardless of session length) as
xfail(strict): it fails today (documenting the cliff), runs green in CI, and flips to
a hard failure the moment incremental/append-only persistence (O(Δ)/turn) lands —
forcing us to retire it. Plus a regression ceiling (passes today) and a determinism
check (the byte metric is reproducible → a valid gate).
The fix is algorithmic (incremental persistence, Python/Ring-2), NOT a language
rewrite. Tagged core/array_codec.py as the locked reference contract for a future
gated Ring-1 Zig byte-exact codec (ADR-0196 G0-G8) — step 3, only after the O(Δ) fix
and only if this gate proves the codec is still the bottleneck. See contract.md.
A1 of the refined sequencing — the binary-relation reader was inert w.r.t. the
yardstick (contributing 0). This adds a comprehension_relational_predicate domain:
binary-relation prose scored against hand-authored independent gold (predicate,
subject, object) triples — INV-25 independent / INV-27 reader-disjoint (the reader
never produced the gold). Index breadth 8->9, capability_score 0.937258->0.944030,
wrong_total still 0; baseline.json re-frozen to digest 1ea91c1e.
Rigor split: the index lane is POSITIVE-ONLY (clean coverage, consistent with the
other 8 lanes — mixing adversarial refuse-cases into the coverage denominator would
make 'added capability' read as a score drop). The #596 fabrication-catch lives in a
dedicated falsification test (evals/relational/v1/refusals.jsonl): the trailing-
qualifier / dangling-copula / negation / verb-form cases MUST refuse — bites if the
reader ever fabricates. Honest coverage gap recorded: overlaps_event has no copular
surface form (verb-form 'A overlaps B' refuses), so 17 positives cover 15/16 predicates.
Lookback (adversarial verify) found a comprehension-layer wrong=0 hole: an argument
slot only refused on reader._RESERVED tokens, so connective heads leaked through —
'Carol is the sibling of Dan during school.' fabricated sibling_of(carol,
dan_during_school) and realized it, while the asymmetric twin '… during the trip.'
refused (article leaked). The fabricated compound entity entered realized memory,
breaching the never-fabricate floor.
Fix: (1) argument slots must be FREE of connective tokens (a leaked connective head =
unparsed relational structure -> refuse 'extra_relational_structure'); (2) the copula
must sit STRUCTURALLY adjacent to the connective, so a dangling copula ('Monday before
Friday is.') and a period-question-as-statement ('Is Monday before Friday.') refuse
instead of fabricating a fact. determine stays sound by construction; this closes the
reader-layer hole. Bite tests added for both classes + a 'no fabricated entity enters
realized memory' assertion.
First consumer of en_core_relational_predicates_v1: a fail-closed sibling reader
that maps '<A> is [the] <connective> <B>' onto the pack's closed predicate
vocabulary (parent_of, less_than, left_of, before_event, ...), producing a standard
Comprehension. realize_comprehension consumes it unchanged; determine's guard widens
from the single 'member' predicate to a CLOSED direct-entailment set (member + the
ground binary relational predicates), keeping categorical/propositional predicates
soundly excluded.
Direct entailment only — no transitive/symmetric/rule inference (symmetric-converse
questions are a sound-but-incomplete refusal, never a faked assertion). Only the
predicate is closed-vocabulary; arguments may be OOV. The pack is loaded explicitly,
not default-mounted.
wrong=0 bites: reader refuses non-template/negated/pack-absent surfaces; determine
asserts only on direct entailment and excludes categorical predicates.
From the mandated lookback audit: three D0 refusal branches were asserted-but-unproven.
Now they bite:
- not_single_query: reachable from REAL input — a two-question prompt yields two queries.
- malformed_query: a unary `member` query (hand-built; the reader only emits arity-2).
- not_a_comprehension: a non-Comprehension/Refusal input.
No code change — determine.py already refused all three; this closes the
schema-proof-obligation gap (each would now fail if its guard were removed).
From the mandated lookback audit of the composed R0→R1→R1c→OOV surface:
- wrong=0 HAZARD (medium): realize_quantitative trusted equation admissibility it
never checked. `comprehend_quantitative` runs real check_admissibility, but the
type does not enforce it, so a future non-reader constructor could slip a
dimensionally-incoherent 'pending'/'refused' equation into the held self (then
surfaced as-told by DETERMINE). Now RE-ASSERTS admitted-status defensively ->
NotRealized("unadmitted_equation"); docstring corrected to match (no longer claims
the type guarantees it). Bite test via a hand-built pending-equation graph.
- Defensive: wrap binding_graph hashing -> NotRealized("unhashable_structure") so a
future numeric field is a clean refusal, not an uncaught TypeError mid-write.
- Coverage (the obligations now bite, not decoration): unadmitted_equation,
not_a_quant_comprehension, no_bound_fact, grounding_failed (monkeypatched probe),
cross-substrate coexistence (meaning_graph + binding_graph in one vault — recall
isolates, structure_keys differ), and the negated_relation refusal (hand-built,
since the reader encodes declarative negation in the PREDICATE not rel.negated).
- Drift: R0 idempotency test now names the actual dedup key (structure_key, not
content_hash); scope doc notes #591 made OOV placement injective (the §0/§1
non-injectivity finding describes the pre-#591 substrate).
Note: the lookback flagged negated_relation as a high reachable-untested hazard, but
verification showed the reader never sets rel.negated=True for declaratives (it
refuses "X is not a Y" or uses some_not/disjoint predicates) — so it is a defensive
branch, tested via a hand-built graph. Green: 35 realize + ruff clean.
The honest gear (roadmap Step 4). `determine(question: Comprehension | Refusal, ctx)`
answers a membership question ("Is X a Y?") ONLY from what the held self has already
REALIZED (R1a structural recall) — never from the field, an LLM, or absence.
Honesty (from the design review): every realizable record is SPECULATIVE, and
ADMISSIBLE_AS_EVIDENCE = {COHERENT}, so a determination grounded in SPECULATIVE records
carries `basis="as_told"` — "based on what I was told (unverified)", NEVER "verified".
Until COHERENT promotion exists (out of scope), D0 produces only as-told assertions or
typed `Undetermined` refusals. No estimation; no corpus mutation (teaching stays HITL
proposal-only).
Soundness (open-world, wrong=0): D0 asserts an answer ONLY on DIRECT structural
entailment by a realized fact; absence never refutes (so it never asserts a positive
answer from missing knowledge — it refuses). It asserts only `answer=True` on a direct
hit; it never asserts False. Negated questions and non-`member` queries are an explicit
`Undetermined` — D0 ships no entailment path the reader cannot exercise.
Tests (test_determine_d0.py, 8) BITE: present-but-non-entailing (a record about the
subject exists but not the asked relation) MUST refuse; the same question against a
fresh context with no realized fact flips Determined→Undetermined (the verdict is
entailment, not mere presence); the negated + unsupported-query refusals are exercised
via hand-built queries (the reader refuses them upstream, so a comprehend-based test
would pass vacuously). Independent of #593: reasons over R0/R1 `member` facts only.
Generalizes what REALIZE accepts, on the structural-key foundation from #592.
R1c — binding_graph / arithmetic realize:
- `realize_quantitative(QuantComprehension | Refusal, ctx)` realizes a comprehended
arithmetic structure (its admissibility-checked binding_graph) as a SPECULATIVE
record with `structure_kind="binding_graph"` and a span-free `structure_key` over
symbols/facts/equations. The only wrong=0 guard needed is the `Refusal` check —
factless input is already a Refusal upstream (the fact-count gate would be vacuous).
- Extracts the shared `_realize_structured` write path so meaning_graph and
binding_graph share ONE wrong=0 dedup/store point (the `.store` call stays in the
INV-21-allowlisted realize.py).
OOV — lift the in-vocab subject gate:
- R0 declined OOV subjects on the mistaken belief that OOV grounding is
non-deterministic. It is deterministic and reboot-stable, and #591 makes it
injective. Correctness rests on the structural key, not the versor, so OOV subjects
now realize normally. The "side-effect-free" comment is corrected: probe_ingest of
an OOV token mutates the shared vocab via a session-scoped `insert_transient` that
is NOT serialized into the snapshot, so reboot-stability rests on the vault record.
Honesty: the binding_graph entities (alice, the synthesized `total`) are symbolic/OOV
so the placement versor is deterministic-GIVEN-session-state, NOT subject-determined;
reboot-stability is carried by the Shape B+ snapshot of the exact bytes, and
distinctness by structural recall — never the (possibly colliding) metric. SPECULATIVE
always; versor_condition<1e-6 + exact CGA recall preserved; no parallel learning path.
Tests: test_realize_r1c_binding_graph.py (8) + test_realize_oov.py (6, incl. a
fresh-vocab reboot proving stability rests on the vault record not the transient) +
test_realize_r0.py oov test flipped to realize. Green: 35 realize + smoke locally.
R0 keyed a realized fact by its subject's field versor, which is NOT injective:
two facts about one subject embed to byte-identical versors and collide at inf on
metric recall (proven). R1 adds the missing structural key.
- RealizedRecord/metadata carry ordered `relation_arguments` (the relation-space
key R0's sorted `entity_names` discards) and a span-free `structure_key`.
- `recall_realized(ctx, subject=/predicate=/content_hash=/structure_key=/
structure_kind=/entity=)` retrieves realized facts by EXACT structural metadata
(no metric / ANN), via a new read-only `VaultStore.iter_metadata()` accessor.
- Idempotency now dedups on the span-free `structure_key`, so the same proposition
told from a different source/offset collapses (R0's span-inclusive content_hash
could not). Guarded by an ambiguous-entity-name refusal — a wrong=0 defense,
since `Entity.name` is non-unique in the model (only `entity_id` is enforced).
- `content_hash` retained for provenance + replay_hash; `vault_index` pinned to the
live deque position.
Design adversarially verified (docs/analysis/REALIZE-R1-DETERMINE-scope-2026-06-06.md);
the false "established pattern" private-access comment is removed in favor of the
public accessor. wrong=0 + versor_condition<1e-6 + exact CGA recall preserved;
vault/store.py adds only a read-only accessor (no normalization). Green: 23 realize
+ 110 invariant/vault + 90 smoke; ruff check clean.
REALIZE roadmap Step 3, slice R0: the boundary that turns comprehension from an
EVAL ARTIFACT into accumulating living knowledge. A comprehended declarative fact is
integrated into the held self as a structured vault entry (versor, metadata) — NOT a
new store — so it inherits exact cga_inner recall, EpistemicStatus stamping, and
bit-exact Shape B+ persistence for free. Scope: docs/analysis/REALIZE-scope-2026-06-06.md.
generate/realize/realize.py — realize_comprehension(Comprehension|Refusal, ctx) ->
Realized(record, created) | NotRealized(reason):
- eligibility: a Comprehension (not Refusal) with NO queries and EXACTLY ONE
non-negated relation whose subject grounds IN-VOCABULARY. Everything else is a
typed NotRealized with zero vault writes (wrong=0).
- in-vocab-subject only: OOV grounding is non-deterministic across reboots (an
empirically-confirmed substrate gap), so OOV subjects are declined in R0.
- SPECULATIVE always (COHERENT is never a default — ADR-0021); provenance via
MeaningSpan source_span + structure_canonical; content_hash + replay_hash via
canonical-JSON SHA-256 (floats forbidden).
- idempotency: dedup by content_hash within the session (exact-canonical,
span-inclusive — safe direction only, never drops a distinct fact).
- durable schema admits a 2nd substrate later via structure_kind/structure_canonical.
- stores via the existing VaultStore.store path: no new embedder, no normalization
(closure stays algebra/versor.py), no parallel learning path.
Explicitly OUT of R0: COHERENT promotion, teaching-loop proposals, trace-folding,
relation-space recall, the arithmetic/binding_graph path.
tests/test_realize_r0.py (10) — eligibility (refusal/query/multi-relation/OOV all
write nothing); record fields; idempotency (re-told fact doesn't grow the vault);
SPECULATIVE status firewall (recall(min_status=COHERENT) excludes it); the
falsifiable exit gate (told -> realize -> snapshot -> reboot -> recall: byte-exact
content_hash + score + versor bytes, speculative, versor_condition<1e-6); and
replay_hash re-derivable after reboot. Gate verified to BITE (COHERENT default,
refusal-writes, reprojection-on-load all fail it).
INV-21: generate/realize/realize.py added to ALLOWED_VAULT_WRITERS — a sanctioned
writer (same VaultStore.store path, SPECULATIVE default, nothing on Refusal).
Adversarially reviewed (3 lenses: invariants/wrong0/honesty, determinism/boundary,
scope/adjustments) — no critical/high/medium findings; low/nit honesty wrinkles
folded (state-dependent-placement wording, span-inclusive-dedup note, direct
versor-bytes gate assert, replay_hash re-derivation test). 10 R0 + 90 smoke green;
lane SHAs 8/9 (sole miss = public_demo env flake; deductive_logic + math_teaching
unchanged -> no GSM8K coupling).
The binding-graph's FIRST comprehension consumer (doctrine-aligned: quantities live
in binding_graph, NOT the MeaningGraph). generate/quantitative_comprehension.py
reads arithmetic prose into SymbolBinding/BoundFact/BoundEquation and runs the REAL
check_admissibility (shell -> verify -> rebuild with the actual UnitProof) — there
is NO stamped "admitted": an equation is admitted only if its operand units verify.
Then to_relational_metric projects the binding-graph to the independent
relational_metric oracle for the verdict.
Templates (digits only; non-digit quantity REFUSES):
"<X> has <N> <unit>" -> BoundFact(X = N)
"<Y> has <N> more <unit> than <X>" -> BoundEquation(Y = X + N) op=add
"<Y> has <N> fewer <unit> than <X>" -> BoundEquation(Y = X - N) op=subtract
"How many <unit> does <Y> have" -> ask Y
"How many <unit> do <X> and <Y> have"-> total = X + Y; ask total
Unit modelling (honest, not faked): a noun the closed en_units_v1 pack knows is
used verbatim (dollars -> dollar/money); an UNKNOWN sortal noun (stickers, coins)
is a count of discrete objects -> the existing 'item' lemma (dimension count). So
admissibility stays a REAL check: count+count admits, count+money (a mixed-unit
sum) REFUSES with unit_mismatch — verified to bite.
comprehension_relational_metric: 15/15 wrong=0 (full coverage). Located OUTSIDE
generate/meaning_graph (it targets binding_graph, not the MeaningGraph) so INV-28
neutrality stays intact; oracle imports none of the SUT (new INV-25 lane).
Capability index breadth 7->8, score 0.928622 -> 0.937258, wrong_total 0, digest
50e0675b…
Tests: reader templates + count/known-unit modelling + admissibility-bite (mixed
unit refuses) + non-digit refusal; end-to-end full-coverage wrong=0; arithmetic
added to the structure-preservation generative panel (projected relations+query ==
ground truth); capability breadth 7->8; INV-25 arithmetic lane. 93 targeted + 90
smoke green; lane SHAs 8/9 (sole miss = public_demo env flake; deductive_logic +
math_teaching unchanged -> no GSM8K coupling).
Addresses the review's hygiene point: the comprehension lanes deserve the same
repo-wide independent-gold + neutrality discipline as the older reasoning lanes.
INV-25 (independent gold): register the four comprehension lanes
(set_membership / syllogism / total_ordering / propositional) so their domain
oracles are statically proven to import NONE of the comprehension organ
(generate.meaning_graph reader + projectors). The gold the reader is scored
against is thereby independent of the reader — the anti-overfit firewall now covers
comprehension, not just the structured-input lanes. All four oracles are clean
(stdlib-only), so the firewall passes.
INV-28 (MeaningGraph neutrality): a new repo-wide invariant mirroring INV-26's
binding-graph neutrality — no generate/meaning_graph module imports
field/algebra/evals/vault/chat/core/sensorium or numpy. The MeaningGraph is the new
neutral meeting point where prose-read structure projects into independent oracles;
it earns the same firewall. numpy is forbidden too: Path β reads structure
SYMBOLICALLY and quantities are the binding-graph's domain, not the MeaningGraph's.
Non-vacuity test included (the predicate flags a module known to import the field
engine).
Tests-only. 56 architectural-invariant tests pass (was 53 + 3 new INV-28 +
4 INV-25 lanes wired into the existing oracle-firewall test).
Addresses the central review finding: the generative wrong=0 tests compared oracle
VERDICTS, so a misread graph that coincidentally yields the same verdict passed
silently (coincidental correctness in cleaner clothes). This adds the conjugate
check — the reader must recover the EXACT structure the prose encodes, not merely a
verdict-equivalent one.
tests/test_comprehension_structure_preserving.py:
- Structure preservation (all 4 domains): over randomly generated structures
rendered to prose that FULLY determines them, assert projected structure AND
query == ground truth exactly (order-insensitive canonicalization), or refuse.
Empirically this is strictly stronger: under a subject<->predicate premise swap,
361/400 reads are structurally wrong and 307 of those (85%) coincide in verdict
— the answer test misses all 307; the structure test catches all 361.
- Perturbation invariance: meaning-preserving surface changes (premise/clause
reordering, capitalization, extra whitespace) yield the SAME structure.
The existing answer-preservation property tests stay (verdict agreement is still a
valid, separate check — exactly the "assert structure, then separately assert
oracle agreement" the review recommends). Tests-only; no source change; capability
index unchanged. 7 new + 86 comprehension/capability targeted green.
Adds comprehension_propositional — the comprehension organ now reads the classic
propositional ARGUMENT FORMS end-to-end into the flagship deductive_logic ROBDD
oracle (the most robustly independent gold in the repo). The neutral MeaningGraph
now feeds FOUR independent oracles (set-membership, syllogism-validity,
total-ordering, propositional-entailment) from one interlingua — the Option-B
interlingua thesis validated.
reader.py: propositional templates (atoms are chunked NP ids; fits the existing
entities + n-ary relations + negation model — NO interlingua change, propositional
is not arithmetic-quantities):
- "if <P> then <Q>" -> implies(P, Q)
- "not <P>" -> asserted(P, negated=True)
- "<P> or <Q>" -> or(P, Q)
- "<P>" (single token) -> asserted(P) (bare-atom, single-token only to
keep the parse-or-refuse floor)
- "therefore <prop>" -> query of the same predicate
Relations now carry a negated flag end-to-end (asserted negation).
projectors.py: to_deductive_logic serializes propositional relations/query into
formula strings (keyword operators the oracle tokenizer accepts); returns None
(refusal) unless the comprehension is purely propositional, so categorical/ordering
comprehensions never leak into the entailment oracle.
evals: new evals/propositional_logic/v1 (12 cases — modus ponens/tollens,
hypothetical & disjunctive syllogism, the affirming-consequent / denying-antecedent
fallacies which the oracle marks "unknown"; gold = oracle verdict) + gold-only
runner + evals/comprehension/propositional_runner.py. Oracle "refused" (formula
unevaluable) is treated as a decline, never a wrong.
Scores: comprehension_propositional 12/12 wrong=0 (full coverage); no regression on
the 3 existing lanes (8/8, 7/8, 7/8). Capability index breadth 6->7, score
0.917231 -> 0.928622, wrong_total 0, digest 51df7bba…
Tests: reader propositional templates; to_deductive_logic projector tests;
end-to-end full-coverage wrong=0; propositional generative round-trip added to the
wrong=0 property suite (verified to BITE under a reversed-implies mutation);
capability breadth 6->7. 115 targeted + 87 smoke green. Lane SHAs 8/9 (sole miss =
public_demo env wall-clock flake; deductive_logic_v1 unchanged).
Recovers the multi-word-NP cases the reader previously refused, by adopting ONE
principled canonicalization contract (evals/comprehension/CANONICALIZATION.md) that
the reader AND the gold lanes both follow — so a committed answer can only match
gold or refuse, never silently mean something else.
Contract: a noun-phrase slot -> tokens lowercased, joined with "_"; a plural class
slot singularizes its head first ("metal objects"->"metal_object",
"North station"->"north_station", "Level one"->"level_one"). JOIN is chosen over
head-word-only ("metal objects"->"metal") because head-word-only is
information-destroying — it collapses "metal objects" and "metal tools" into one
false identity, itself a wrong=0 hazard.
reader.py: slot-based templates chunk multi-token NPs (_chunk / _chunk_class
replace the single-token _one / _one_class). Reserved-function-word guard fires only
INSIDE a multi-token slot (a lone "A" item is content, not the article). Still
parse-or-refuse: reserved-word leaks ("Compare beta with beta in the same order"),
non-pluralizable class heads (adjectival "trained"), and the ambiguous adjacent
two-NP subset query ("Are all <Xs> <Ys>?") all REFUSE.
gold (the contract update, logic-preserving — only term NAMES change):
- sy-v1-0008: metal/soft -> metal_object/soft_object (was head-word-only)
- to-v1-0005: red -> red_rank (was head-word-only)
- to-v1-0004: prose made internally consistent ("is after", "north station") +
north -> north_station (original prose used "North station" in the fact but
"north" in the query — a latent inconsistency)
- to-v1-0007: already conformed (level_one…), no change
Gold-only integrity runners stay 8/8 both lanes (structure+query+gold consistent).
Scores: set_membership 8/8, syllogism 6/8->7/8, total_ordering 4/8->7/8, all
wrong=0. Capability index re-frozen: score 0.814356 -> 0.917231, breadth 6,
wrong_total 0, digest 13d7db6c…
Tests: reader chunking + refusal tests; multi-word generative round-trip added to
the wrong=0 property suite (verified to BITE under a head-word-only mutation —
collapsed ids produce a wrong verdict the test catches); pinned counts updated.
100 comprehension/capability targeted + 87 smoke green.
Proves the wrong=0 invariant GENERALIZES beyond the 8-case gold lanes. Over 1000
randomly generated single-word problems across all three domains, the reader
either refuses or reproduces the EXACT verdict the independent oracle gives on the
ground-truth structure the prose encodes — it never changes the answer.
Non-circular: the generated structure S is ground truth; we render prose P(S),
then compare oracle(project(comprehend(P(S)))) to oracle(S) computed directly.
The oracle is independent of the reader, so agreement = lossless carry and refusal
= honest decline; both are wrong=0. Verified to BITE: flipping a comparator
direction makes the total_ordering case produce a reversed sort the test catches.
Single-word vocab on purpose — multi-word NPs are the known gold-canonicalization
wall the reader refuses; the generator stays in the readable regime where
faithfulness is the whole claim. Anti-overfit: random vocab proves the templates
key on function words + order, not on memorized gold content.
Phase 2a r2/r3/r4 of the redefined plan: the general comprehension reader now
reads THREE independent-gold reasoning domains end-to-end (prose -> MeaningGraph
-> projection -> independent oracle -> answer vs gold), all wrong=0, and all
three are wired into the capability index.
reader.py — new domain-agnostic templates (function words + order; parse-or-refuse):
- categorical E/I/O: "no Xs are Ys"->disjoint, "some Xs are Ys"->intersects,
"some Xs are not Ys"->some_not (A "all Xs are Ys"->subset already existed)
- "therefore <categorical>" -> conclusion QUERY (same neutral predicate vocab)
- comparative facts: "<X> [is] <comp> [than] <Y>" -> less(...), closed
less/greater comparator lexicon, elided-copula support
- sort query ("sort ascending|descending", "... order from <low> to <high>")
and compare query ("compare <X> with <Y>")
- clause-splitting on commas / leading and|or for multi-clause sentences
projectors.py — to_syllogism (premises + validity conclusion, finite-model size 3)
and to_total_ordering (less-facts + sort/compare). Both return None when nothing
is honestly askable of their oracle (caller treats as refusal).
capability_index — wire 3 comprehension lanes into ADAPTERS; re-freeze baseline
breadth 3->6, capability_score 0.919641->0.814356 (geomean falls BY DESIGN as
honest partial-coverage domains join; wrong_total stays 0). digest 0a98b9b4...
Scores: set_membership 8/8, syllogism 6/8, total_ordering 4/8 — all wrong=0.
Multi-word NP handling is DEFERRED on purpose, not missed: the gold lanes
canonicalize multi-word NPs three contradictory ways ("North station"->"north",
"Level one"->"level_one", "metal objects"->"metal"), so no single general rule is
wrong=0-safe. The reader refuses multi-word NPs until the gold lanes carry a
canonicalization contract. Every refusal is a genuine harder phenomenon
(multi-word NP, adjectival predicate, trailing tokens) — never a readable case
silently dropped.
Tests: reader templates, projector unit tests, syllogism/total_ordering
end-to-end wrong=0 with pinned counts, capability breadth 3->6. 138 targeted +
87 smoke green. Lane SHAs 8/9 (sole miss = public_demo env wall-clock flake).
Disciplined Path β (field decode α was empirically falsified). Reads S-P-O
structure SYMBOLICALLY from the token sequence via domain-agnostic templates
keyed on FUNCTION WORDS + ORDER, mints content as MeaningGraph entities/relations,
parse-or-refuse (wrong=0 at the comprehension layer).
Templates (set_membership): 'X is a Y' -> member; 'all Xs are Ys' -> subset;
'is X a Y?' / 'are all Xs Ys?' -> queries; definite-NP ('the X is a Y');
conservative singularization incl. irregulars (people->person), refusing
unknown morphology rather than guessing.
End-to-end: prose -> comprehend -> project -> INDEPENDENT set_membership oracle
-> answer vs gold. Result on the real v1 lane: 8 correct / 0 wrong / 0 refused
(full coverage, wrong=0). Cross-content generality (animals/professions/geography)
asserted. 14 reader unit tests + 3 end-to-end tests, each bites under its
violation. Additive only; invariants + capability index green.
The refusal-first, provenance-carrying structure the field-decode produces and
the domain reasoners project from. Sibling of the binding-graph (ADR-0132) but
carries GENERAL meaning (entities + n-ary named relations), neutral to the
engine substrate (no algebra/field/numpy import), and imposes NO acyclicity
(relation cycles are well-formed, unlike the equation DAG).
Refusal-first construction: non-identifier ids, empty predicates, zero-arity
relations, duplicate entity ids, and relations referencing unknown entities all
refuse at construction. Deterministic to_canonical_string for replay/hashing.
Polarity (negated) is first-class. kind/predicate carry no closed vocab yet
(defer-substrate-vocab).
Phase 2a foundation under Path alpha (field standing-hand + refusal floor); the
field-decode -> refusal-floor -> MeaningGraph reader is the next increment.
18 new tests (each bites under its named violation); architectural invariants +
capability index green.
The instrument that gates every later "more capable" claim and makes "general,
not narrow" a number. evals/capability_index/ composes the self-loading
independent-gold reasoning lanes (deductive_logic, dimensional, relational_metric)
into one report with honest, un-gameable axes:
- accuracy (of committed answers; wrong stays 0 in assert mode),
- coverage (attempted-not-refused),
- coverage_geomean — the headline: geometric mean of per-domain coverage, which is
0 if ANY domain has zero coverage, so a narrow per-domain win cannot move it; it
rises only when breadth rises,
- capability_score = coverage_geomean × accuracy, HARD-GATED to 0 if any domain
committed a wrong answer (assert-mode invariant),
- a deterministic digest (the replayable baseline the autonomous loop must climb).
Baseline (today): score 0.9196, accuracy 1.0, breadth 3, wrong_total 0 — high
because all three composed lanes are formal/structured; when comprehension-gated
NL domains join, the geomean will honestly drop to expose the breadth gap (the
instrument working). Adapters surface any lane that fails to run as not_covered —
no silent drop (proven: it caught a deductive-report shape mismatch mid-build).
Pure aggregation + the geomean anti-gaming property + the wrong=0 hard gate are
unit-tested; a real-composition integration test asserts wrong=0 + breadth=3.
10 tests + 52 architectural invariants pass. Additive (new evals/ package).

The second lived-spine half: the engine learns WHILE IT LIVES, not only when
prompted. ChatRuntime.idle_tick() advances the contemplation/proposal flywheel
between turns (no user input):
- contemplates the pending discovery backlog (enrichment), then runs the
replay-gated propose_from_candidate into a persistent, file-backed ProposalLog
(engine_state/proposals.jsonl) held on the runtime.
- PROPOSAL-ONLY: it never ratifies. Raw cold-start candidates are 'undetermined'
and the eligibility gate refuses them outright (the engine won't propose what
it hasn't determined). A determined candidate only reaches 'pending' — moving
to 'accepted'/corpus-append stays HITL via teaching/review. No idle tick emits
an accepted / accepted_corpus_append event.
- The proposal log and the candidate backlog both live in the engine-state dir,
so idle learning persists across reboot and accumulates (CL-2) — building on
Shape B+ resume + L11 identity continuity.
idle_tick returns IdleTickResult(candidates_contemplated, proposals_created,
pending_proposals). None proposal log under no_load_state (ephemeral runtimes
keep no learning lineage).
5 dedicated tests: no-op on empty backlog, contemplates the backlog, refuses
undetermined (safety), proposes-a-determined-candidate-but-never-ratifies,
idle-learning-persists-across-reboot.
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).
The load-bearing L10 milestone: with resume mode enabled, a reboot resumes the
SAME life. Wires SessionContext.snapshot/restore (Phases A-C) into the
engine-state checkpoint and flips the L10 spike's P2b oracle to transparent.
Persistence is OPT-IN (RuntimeConfig.persist_session_state, default False): it is
a deliberate always-on-runtime mode, and per-turn snapshotting has an O(turns)
cost, so demos / evals / one-shot runtimes do NOT pay for resume they don't use.
This keeps every existing ChatRuntime byte-for-byte unchanged (no perf tax, no
pinned-lane SHA drift, no test breakage); only the L10 continuity lane and the
production L10 process enable it.
Phase D (wiring):
- core/config.py: persist_session_state flag (default False).
- engine_state/__init__.py: bump _SCHEMA_VERSION 1->2; add save_session_state /
load_session_state (atomic, ADR-0156). v1 checkpoints still load (1 <= 2) with
no session_state -> fresh session.
- chat/runtime.py: when persist_session_state, checkpoint_engine_state saves the
session snapshot BEFORE the manifest (manifest = the commit marker / WAL force
boundary); _load_engine_state restores it into self._context.
Phase E (flip the oracle):
- evals/l10_continuity/runner.py: the continuity lane forces persist on (it IS
the resume-mode lane).
- tests/test_l10_continuity.py: test_p2b_documents_current_resume_gap ->
test_p2b_reboot_is_transparent (asserts post_reboot_transparent, divergence
None). predicates.py / runner.py / contract.md: P2b is now the
resume-as-same-life guard.
- tests/test_adr_0146_engine_state.py: manifest schema_version 1 -> 2.
Validation: full spike (P1 closure, P2a determinism, P2b NOW TRANSPARENT, P3
bounded, P4 crash-recovery determinism + commit point, P5b/P5c) +
reboot-restores-lived-state + v1 back-compat + ADR-0146, all green;
[run K -> reboot -> run M] byte-identical to [run K+M]. With persistence off
(default), the curated smoke + showcase budget + pinned lanes are unchanged.
Closes the A->E Shape B+ scope (docs/analysis/L10-shapeBplus-persistence-scope-2026-06-05.md).
Composes the FieldState (A) and VaultStore (B) codecs with new codecs for
SessionGraph/TurnNode, ReferentRegistry/ReferentEntry, Proposition, and
DialogueTurn into SessionContext.snapshot()/restore() — the complete lived
session state that must survive reboot for resume-as-same-life.
- session/graph.py: TurnNode + SessionGraph to_dict/from_dict (versors bit-exact).
- session/referents.py: ReferentEntry + ReferentRegistry, preserving the
_slots<->_history object aliasing via slot->history-index (update_turn_versor
relies on `is` identity).
- generate/proposition.py + generate/dialogue.py: Proposition + DialogueTurn
codecs (relation_norm is derived in __post_init__, not persisted).
- vault/store.py: complete the metadata codec — vault metadata can hold a
Proposition ({"kind":"proposition",...} from generate/proposition.py), tagged
on encode and reconstructed on decode (lazy import, cycle-free). This closes a
gap Phase B assumed away ("metadata is primitives only"); surfaced by the
Phase C JSON-safe integration test.
- session/context.py: snapshot()/restore(). vocab/persona are NOT serialized
(shared, supplied at restore); restore() mutates self by design (a load).
Exit gate: a real 4-turn session, snapshotted and restored into a fresh context,
is field-equal — field bit-exact, vault recall identical, graph/referents/
dialogue preserved (incl. the referent aliasing). 9 new tests; INV-02 +
session-coherence regression green (68 passed).
Part of the A->E Shape B+ scope (Phase C).
Adds VaultStore.to_dict/from_dict on top of Phase A's array codec. Persists the
versors (bit-exact via the codec), metadata, store_count, reproject_interval,
and max_entries; rebuilds the derived _exact_index on load and leaves the lazy
_matrix_cache None.
Bright line (vault/store.py is a CLAUDE.md forbidden normalization site): the
load path performs NO reprojection / normalization / repair — it restores the
exact persisted bytes (already null-projected at their last live reproject
boundary) and rebuilds only the pure index. Proven by a test asserting the
restored versors are BIT-IDENTICAL to the originals (a reproject would change
them via null_project) and that exact CGA recall — including the score==inf
exact-match short-circuit — is identical after a save/load cycle.
5 new tests + INV-02 (normalize-not-called-outside-gate) + all vault tests pass
(116 passed). Part of the A->E Shape B+ scope (Phase B).
Foundation for L10 resume-as-same-life persistence. Adds:
- core/array_codec.py: a leaf (numpy+base64) codec encoding arrays as
{dtype, shape, b64(raw bytes)} — BIT-EXACT, never decimal. Float round-trips
lose zero precision, so a restored versor keeps versor_condition < 1e-6 and a
replayed turn keeps its trace_hash. dtype carries byte order; float32 is never
conflated with float64.
- field/state.py: FieldState.to_dict/from_dict. Multivector arrays (F, holonomy)
go through the byte codec; energy/valence round-trip exactly via JSON-safe
helpers (lazy physics imports keep field/ cycle-free).
Exit gate (the scope's #1 risk, de-risked first): bit-exact round-trip AND
closure preserved — versor_condition(restored.F) == versor_condition(fs.F)
exactly. 10 codec/FieldState tests + 55 architectural-invariant/runtime tests
pass. Purely additive; no existing behavior changed.
Part of docs/analysis/L10-shapeBplus-persistence-scope-2026-06-05.md (Phase A).
Build evals/l10_continuity/, the empirical gate between the two L10 targets
(T-resume: provable same-life resume; T-experience: continuous experiencing
field-life). Drives the REAL turn loop (ChatRuntime + CognitiveTurnPipeline)
over a deterministic in-vocab corpus, with reboot and orphan-crash legs, and
evaluates falsifiable predicates over recorded evidence. Additive only; no
existing file touched; read-only over the runtime; no serving-path import.
Predicates (each with a *_holds real-soak test AND a *_bites mutation test, per
the CLAUDE.md schema-as-proof discipline):
- P1 closure: versor_condition < 1e-6 every turn (green guard).
- P2a determinism: two independent runtimes -> byte-identical trace_hash.
- P2b reboot transparency (the diagnostic): a reboot never alters pre-reboot
turns (hard guard); post-reboot transparency is MEASURED and today FALSE --
the mechanical proof that Shape B (ADR-0146) discards the lived field/vault,
i.e. "many lives sharing a checkpoint". A pinned test flips if persistence is
ever added, forcing a doc update so the gap can't close silently.
- P3 bounded resources: vault grows linear-bounded/monotonic (RSS recorded).
- P4 crash recovery: two recoveries from one checkpoint converge (determinism)
+ commit-point/ARIES force boundary (recovered turn_count == committed) +
atomic-write survives mid-os.replace kill (ADR-0156).
- P5b anchor stability (T-experience crux): field anchors without COLLAPSE
(dist_to_anchor not -> 0) or FREEZE (turn_movement not -> 0); the long-horizon
test of the sanctioned _session_anchor_pull (alpha=0.05). Thresholds measured.
- P5c coherence: surfaces stay non-empty and not collapsed to one output, over
more than one corpus cycle.
- P5a recall precision@k: recorded as not_covered (needs a held-out probe set).
report.py assembles the panel into a structured report with a hardware-stable
deterministic_digest (trace_hash sequence + verdicts; excludes RSS/wall-clock)
as the freeze handle. Run: python -m evals.l10_continuity [n_turns] [reboot_turn].
24 tests pass; adversarially reviewed across 4 lenses (bite-discipline,
invariant/trust-boundary, honesty/determinism, correctness) before landing.
