Governance flip carrying Joshua Shay's ratification provenance inline (ruling
2026-07-17: "Ratify both"). Anti-self-Accept guard satisfied — status flips are
authorized by explicit human ruling, not self-issued.
- ADR-0245 → **Accepted** (clean): mechanical-sympathy + semantic-rigor §3 gate
green — parity, f32 467× speedup, 0-LAPACK-on-repeat, collision-resistance.
- ADR-0244 → **Accepted as an implemented mechanism** with a RATIFIED
live-activation limitation: identity_wave_gate stays default-off and live
activation is NOT authorized. Acceptance covers the operator-preservation
manifold, fail-closed gate capability, γ_id calibration, telemetry, and
lifecycle contracts — not a production flip. The Phase-3 calibration explicitly
did NOT authorize activation (benign traffic not separable at the nominal
frame; best balanced error 0.346). Activation is blocked pending a separately
ratified ADR-0246 (induced action, lawful stabilizer, path integrity,
semantic-frame discrimination) + renewed discrimination evidence + acceptable
benign refusal rate + explicit human ratification.
Governance additions (per the ruling): both ADR status lines carry
"Accepted — ratified by Joshua Shay … acceptance-packet" (provenance-guard
format); ADR-0244 header carries the Operational-status limitation paragraph + a
machine-readable identity_wave_gate: ledger block (implementation: accepted /
live_activation: not_authorized / default: off); both packet §8 RULING RECORDs
RATIFIED with the "not safe-to-activate" caveat prominent. Plan doc Phase 6 → DONE.
[Verification]: smoke 176 passed; provenance/ADR pins + all ADR-0244/0245 tests
503 passed (both-Accepted-with-provenance format enforced). Docs-only.
Two D10-pattern acceptance packets submitted for Joshua's ruling:
- docs/audit/adr-0244-acceptance-packet-2026-07-17.md
- docs/audit/adr-0245-acceptance-packet-2026-07-17.md
Each is an evidence dossier (§1 claim→built→evidence→verdict table, §2 deviations,
§3 deferred, §4 gate results, §5 requested action). §8 RULING RECORD is PENDING and
both ADR status lines remain **Proposed** — the anti-self-Accept guard forbids me
flipping status without explicit ratification, so I have NOT.
The ADR-0244 packet §5 foregrounds the one caveat shaping the ruling: the identity
wave-gate is BUILT + VALIDATED but NOT live (identity_wave_gate=False; Phase-3
live-non-separation, best balanced error 0.346) — validated scaffolding pending
ADR-0246, not a live gate. The ADR-0245 §3 gate is complete (parity, f32 467×
speedup, 0-LAPACK, collision-resistance).
Plan doc Phase 6 → PACKETS DELIVERED, awaiting ratification. All build phases
(0-5) complete; the only remaining step is the human ratification gate.
[Verification]: Phase 5 gate green — smoke 176; fast lane 12032 passed / 25
skipped (core_rs built → Rust-parity + f32-speedup ran live). Docs-only commit;
both ADRs Proposed (provenance guard unaffected).
