Language packs do not consume mastery reports — the pattern is from
identity packs (packs/identity/) and has no consumer in language_packs/
loader.py or compiler.py. The added sidecar's self-seal hash also did
not validate against sha256(json.dumps(body, sort_keys=True,
separators=(',', ':'))).
Drop the file. The actual ratification surface for this pack is the
manifest.json lexicon_checksum, which still matches lexicon.jsonl
bytes (verified).
Closes the Phase-5 contemplation loop in code. Articulation-quality,
contradiction-detection, and frontier-compare miners (already shipping)
now have a route to file PackMutationProposal candidates that traverse
the single reviewed teaching path. Construction-only; never promotes
to coherent.
- new teaching/from_miner.py: from_finding() / from_findings() turn
ContemplationFinding records (kind=PACK_MUTATION_CANDIDATE) into
PackMutationProposal candidates with source.kind="miner",
source.source_id=<miner_id>, status=SPECULATIVE
- proposal_id = SHA-256(canonical(miner_id, finding, revision))[:16]
— same inputs → byte-identical proposal_id; different miner_id or
revision → different id
- identity-pack defense AT CONSTRUCTION: reuses teaching.review.
_is_identity_override() against finding.subject AND
finding.proposed_action; miner-sourced identity-override attempts
never reach the proposal log
- pluggable ReplayEquivalenceChecker Protocol with ReplayEquivalenceResult;
NoOpReplayChecker default explicitly notes "deferred to production
checker"; production checker integration is downstream of this ADR
- from_findings() batch path collects identity-override and
replay-equivalence rejections in a typed rejection log rather than
raising, so a mixed batch can proceed with audit evidence
- serialize_proposal_emitted_event() emits ADR-0040-compliant redacted
telemetry shape: type, proposal_id, source.serialize(),
epistemic_status only (no raw subject/correction_text)
- 22 unit tests covering positive construction, identity defense in
subject+proposed_action, malformed input, determinism (same inputs,
different revision, different miner_id, batch stream), replay
pre-gate (single + batch), telemetry redaction, and the structural
grep gate enforcing miner_proposal_single_review_path (only
teaching/review.py and teaching/store.py may promote to COHERENT)
- new evals/miner_loop_closure/ lane: 6 case classes (positive_basic,
identity_override_subject, identity_override_action,
replay_equivalence_failed, wrong_finding_kind, determinism) passing
6/6 with byte-identical SHA-256 across runs
- smoke 67/67, teaching 17/17, cognition 120/121 (1 pre-existing skip);
cognition eval byte-identical 100/100/100/100
Phase 5 (ADR-0067 follow-up):

CLI: core teaching supersede ... --cross-pack

Strict per-chain residency, anti-leakage, byte-identical rollback

Articulation benchmark suite (Phase 4 capability proof):
benchmarks/articulation.py — 5 sub-benches
[1] breadth — every intent shape (9 + OOV + cross-pack)
[2] determinism — N reruns / unique-surface count
[3] footprint — psutil RSS profile across T turns

Mirrors the chain-gap pipeline (Phase 1.1+1.2) for vocabulary gaps:
the OOV invitation surface (P2.1) now emits structured signals that
operators can aggregate, rank, and auto-promote into reviewed
PackMutationProposal candidates — closing the OOV loop the same way
Phase 1 closed the chain loop.
Three new modules + two new CLI surfaces:
teaching/oov_sink.py.
OOVCandidate dataclass mirroring teaching.discovery.DiscoveryCandidate.
OOVBufferSink (in-memory) + OOVMonthlyFileSink (append-only JSONL
under <root>/<YYYY>/<YYYY-MM>.jsonl — same layout as discovery sink
so the aggregator reuses the file-walk machinery).
hash_oov_candidate_id(token, intent, trace_hash) — deterministic
32-char hex id matching DiscoveryCandidate's replay invariant.
format_oov_candidate_jsonl — sorted-keys compact JSONL line.
teaching/oov_gaps.py.
aggregate_oov_gaps(root, since, sample_limit) groups emitted
candidates by token, tracks intent-shape union (a token asked under
multiple intents is a stronger curriculum signal), splits
boundary_clean from boundary_tainted counts, supports --since
YYYY-MM filtering via the sink's file naming convention.
Pure reader; never mutates the sink. Deterministic ordering:
(count desc, token asc).
teaching/oov_promotion.py.
promote_oov_gaps(gaps, threshold, include_tainted, suggested_packs)
lifts threshold-crossing tokens to OOVPromotion records.
- boundary_clean_count gates promotion by default (tainted-only
tokens may indicate the prompt hit a safety axis rather than a
vocab gap).
- --include-tainted flag for operator override.
- threshold < 1 raises.
- queue_id deterministic: ``oov:<token>@<threshold>`` — diffable
across runs.
- suggested_packs lists mounted packs but does NOT recommend one
— domain inference is out of scope (would require a stochastic
classifier). Operator picks the destination.
Runtime wiring:
ChatRuntime.attach_oov_sink(sink) mirrors attach_discovery_sink.
Runtime emits one OOVCandidate JSONL line per turn whose
grounding_source == "oov", no-op when no sink is attached.
Intent classifier is now invoked when EITHER sink is attached
(was: only discovery sink) — both downstream paths need it.
CLI:
core teaching oov-gaps [--top N] [--since YYYY-MM] [--root PATH]
[--sample-limit N] [--json]
core teaching oov-queue [--threshold N] [--include-tainted]

ADR-0065 documents the full design (five-tier honesty gradient,

Closes the corpus flywheel. ADR-0055 Phase B emits DiscoveryCandidate
JSONL to the discovery sink, but until now there was no operator-facing
view: candidates accumulated to disk, no one grepped them, the system's
"I would have grounded this if I had a chain" signal went into a void.
P1.1 — Discovery aggregator (teaching/gaps.py).
Pure reader over the discovery-sink monthly-rollover layout
(<root>/<YYYY>/<YYYY-MM>.jsonl). aggregate_gaps(root, since,
sample_limit) groups emitted candidates by (subject, intent) cell
and returns a deterministic ranked tuple of Gap records.
- count: total emissions
- boundary_clean_count: subset whose boundary_clean flag held
(refusal/hedge-tainted emissions split out so operators can filter)
- sample_candidate_ids: up to N retained ids per cell, sorted
- months_seen: every month token where the cell appeared
--since YYYY-MM filters by file naming convention (no timestamp
dependency). Malformed lines silently skipped. Default root:
teaching/discovery_log.
CLI: core teaching gaps [--root PATH] [--since YYYY-MM] [--top N]
[--sample-limit N] [--json]
P1.2 — Auto-promotion queue (teaching/promotion.py).
promote_gaps(gaps, threshold, include_tainted) lifts cells whose
effective count meets the threshold into GapPromotion records.
- Default mode: boundary_clean_count gates promotion. Tainted-only
cells (count > 0 but all emissions refusal/hedge-tainted) do not
auto-promote — those may indicate the prompt hit a safety axis,
not a curriculum gap.
- include_tainted=True counts every emission (operator override).
- Threshold must be >= 1 (zero threshold defeats the queue).
- queue_id is stable + deterministic (gap:<intent>:<subject>@<N>).
- No content synthesis — promotion never invents connective or
object; only an operator can author a complete chain via the
propose/replay/accept pipeline.
CLI: core teaching queue [--threshold N] [--include-tainted]
[--root PATH] [--since YYYY-MM] [--json]
Operator workflow (closed loop):
operator → core chat # asks question
← cold turn emits DiscoveryCandidate
operator → core teaching gaps --top 10 # ranked gaps
operator → core teaching queue --threshold 3 # auto-promoted
operator → authors candidate JSONL
operator → core teaching propose <path> # replay gate runs
operator → core teaching review <id> --accept # corpus mutates
24 new tests (13 gaps + 11 promotion), all pure / no I/O dependencies,
fast (<1s combined). Full lane: 1933 passed, 2 skipped.
ADR-0064 is the corpus-layer sibling of ADR-0063. The teaching-grounded
surface composer was hardcoded to cognition_chains_v1, so kinship CAUSE/
VERIFICATION prompts fell through to the universal disclosure even though
en_core_relations_v1 was mounted on the live runtime (ADR-0063).
Architectural change in chat/teaching_grounding.py:
- New TeachingCorpusSpec dataclass (corpus_id, path, pack_id).
- TEACHING_CORPORA tuple registers every active corpus. Each
corpus is 1:1-bound to one lexicon pack — cross-domain triples
deferred per docs/teaching_order.md §5.
- _load_corpus(spec) loads one corpus with pack-residency scoped
to its declared pack.
- _all_chains_index() aggregates across all registered corpora
(first-match-wins; cognition first preserves byte-identity).
- _pack_for_corpus(corpus_id) → bound pack lexicon.
- clear_teaching_caches() atomic cache invalidation.
- TeachingChain gains corpus_id field → surface tag follows resolving corpus.
Wiring updates:
- teaching_grounded_surface + teaching_grounded_surface_composed
consult _all_chains_index; surface tag follows chain.corpus_id.
- teaching/discovery.py gate uses chat.pack_resolver.is_resolvable
(any mounted pack) + _all_chains_index (any registered corpus).
- teaching/replay.py _swap_corpus_path rewrites the registry path
+ clears all teaching caches during the gate's transient phase.
Active corpus bytes unchanged (replay invariant preserved).
- evals/learning_loop/run_demo.py scene-5 swap mirrors the new
pattern so the demo still grounds against transient corpora.
Back-compat preserved: _corpus_index, _CORPUS_PATH, TEACHING_CORPUS_ID
remain cognition-corpus-specific for audit/replay consumers.
Phase 1.4 — relations_chains_v1 seeded with 7 reviewed kinship chains:
cause_parent_precedes_child
cause_child_follows_parent
cause_ancestor_precedes_descendant
cause_descendant_follows_ancestor
cause_family_grounds_parent
verification_child_requires_parent
verification_descendant_requires_ancestor
5 of 8 relations lemmas covered. All connectives already humanised.
Strict pack-internal to en_core_relations_v1 (no cross-domain in v1).
Seed pattern matches cognition_chains_v1's original pre-ADR-0055 seed.
Live verification:
> Why does parent exist?
parent — teaching-grounded (relations_chains_v1):
kinship.ascendant.direct; kinship.parent.
parent precedes child (kinship.descendant.direct).
grounding_source = teaching
Cognition eval byte-identical to pre-ADR baseline:
public: intent 100% / surface 100% / term 91.7% / closure 100%
holdout: intent 100% / surface 100% / term 83.3% / closure 100%
Lanes green: smoke 67 / cognition 121 / teaching 17 / packs 6 /
runtime 19 / algebra 132 / full 1933 passed.
Second curriculum unit through the production operator surfaces.
Pure saturation — no cognition-lane lift expected (the eval splits
test fixed 32 cases that don't overlap with this unit's subjects),
but the live-prompt grounding surface expands materially: seven
prompts that previously fell through to disclosure now route to
deterministic teaching-grounded surfaces.
Three coherent clusters:
A. Cognition-source
cause_thought_reveals_meaning
cause_question_reveals_understanding
cause_recall_reveals_memory
B. Conceptual structure (bidirectional)
cause_definition_grounds_concept
verification_concept_requires_definition
C. Semantic content
cause_meaning_grounds_understanding
cause_analogy_reveals_relation
All pack-consistent (subject + object in en_core_cognition_v1),
canonical predicates (reveals / grounds / requires), each opens a
previously-empty (subject, intent) cell.
Replay-equivalence gate reported replay_equivalent=True for all
seven proposals (public cognition lane byte-identical pre/post
every accept).
Cognition lane:
public : intent 100% / surface 100% / term 91.7% / versor 100% (unchanged)
holdout : intent 100% / surface 100% / term 83.3% / versor 100% (unchanged)
Saturation lift is visible at the live-prompt level, not at the
eval level:
Why does thought exist? → [teaching] thought reveals meaning (...)
Why does a question exist? → [teaching] question reveals understanding (...)
Why does definition exist? → [teaching] definition grounds concept (...)
Why does meaning exist? → [teaching] meaning grounds understanding (...)
Why does an analogy exist? → [teaching] analogy reveals relation (...)
Does a concept require definition? → [teaching] concept requires definition (...)
Why does recall exist? → [teaching] recall reveals memory (...)
Why saturation matters: the cognition pack has 78 lemmas; we've
now covered ~21 (subject, intent) cells of the hundreds available.
Without saturation, prompts outside the 32 fixed eval cases are
coin-flips between vault recall and disclosure. Saturation moves
marginal prompts to deterministic teaching-grounded surfaces — the
foundation the composed-surface ADR (next) will compose over.
- teaching/cognition_chains/cognition_chains_v1.jsonl — 15 → 22 lines

The non-negotiable field invariant (versor_condition < 1e-6) is
unaffected: this is corpus growth only; no code path changed.
First end-to-end curriculum unit through the production
propose / review --accept / supersede operator surfaces against the
active teaching corpus. Replay-equivalence gate passed for every
proposal; public split byte-identical; holdout term_capture lifted
exactly as predicted.
- Supersede `verification_wisdom_grounds_judgment` →
`verification_wisdom_requires_knowledge`. Fixes the only corpus-
fixable holdout miss: `verification_wisdom_036`
("Is wisdom the same as knowledge?") now grounds with both
expected terms. Provenance carries
`:supersede(verification_wisdom_grounds_judgment)`.
- Propose + accept four new chains closing epistemology subgraph
cells:
cause_understanding_requires_knowledge
cause_judgment_requires_wisdom
verification_evidence_grounds_knowledge
cause_inference_requires_evidence
Each chain is pack-consistent, uses canonical predicates, and opens
a previously-empty (subject, intent) cell. Replay gate confirmed
no metric regression on the public split before each accept.
Lift (cognition eval):
public : intent 100% / surface 100% / term 91.7% / versor 100% (unchanged)
holdout : intent 100% / surface 94.7% / term 70.8%→75.0% / versor 100%
The remaining four holdout misses (correction_truth_040,
procedure_define_010, unknown_spirit_041, unknown_word_018) are
architectural — surface-composition gaps in the correction-
acknowledgment template, procedure-intent routing, and unknown-
intent surface — and out of scope for corpus surgery.
- teaching/cognition_chains/cognition_chains_v1.jsonl — 10 → 15 lines
(4 appends + 1 supersession marker; 1 retired chain still on disk
per the audit doctrine of append-only at the file level).
- teaching/proposals/proposals.jsonl — new append-only proposal log
with `created` / `replay` / `transition` / `accepted_corpus_append`
events for every accepted proposal.

The first curriculum unit that *measurably moves a cognition-lane
metric* through the operator surfaces, with full provenance from
operator note back to corpus append.
`core teaching supersessions` (+ `--json`) pairs each retired chain with its
active replacement. Derived view over `audit_corpus()`; pure, read-only.
- teaching/audit.py — `SupersessionRecord` + `supersession_history(report)`
returns retired→replacement pairs ordered by retired-line (disk order,
oldest first). Orphan supersessions (retired with no live entry carrying
the matching `superseded_by` — e.g. chained retirements where the middle
link itself was retired) surface as `replacement=None` so silent corpus
drift is inspectable.
- core/cli.py — `core teaching supersessions [--json]`. Exit 1 if any
orphan is detected (catches silent drift in CI); 0 otherwise.
- tests/test_supersession_history.py — 7 tests pin empty-history,
single-pair shape, chained-supersession surfaces both pairs, line-no
ordering, orphan detection, JSON round-trip, no corpus mutation.
Lane state: smoke 67 / cognition 121 / supersession-history 7 new / supersede 13 /
audit 23 — green. `core eval cognition`: unchanged (intent 100% / surface 100% /
term 91.7% / versor 100%). Real corpus today reports `(no supersessions)`.
`core teaching supersede <old_chain_id> --subject ... --intent ... --connective ...
--object ... --review-date YYYY-MM-DD` is the second corpus mutation surface
(alongside accept_proposal). No replay gate — it's a deliberate operator action
that replaces a hand-authored or previously discovery-promoted chain.
- teaching/supersede.py — `supersede_chain()` orchestrator with pre-checks
(review_date format, intent whitelist, pack-consistency via re-audit,
no double-supersede, no self-supersede, no new-chain-id collision) and
byte-identical rollback on post-audit failure.
- teaching/proposals.py — extended `append_chain_to_corpus` with optional
`superseded_by` kwarg; remains the only function in the codebase that
writes to the active teaching corpus.
- core/cli.py — `core teaching supersede` subcommand wired to the live
`_CORPUS_PATH`; EPILOG updated with example.
- tests/test_supersede.py — 13 tests pin every gate, byte-identical
rollback on rejection, append-only at disk level, audit-and-runtime
parity after supersession, hand_authored provenance with
`supersede(<old_chain_id>)` tag.
Lane state: smoke 67 / cognition 121 / teaching 17 / supersede 13 / audit 23 /
proposals 16 / contemplation 16 / contemplation-wiring 6 / discovery 24 — green.
`core eval cognition`: intent 100% / surface 100% / term 91.7% / versor 100% — unchanged.
The only path by which CORE extends its own active teaching corpus.
Closes ADR-0055 Phase C alongside ADR-0056's cognitive surface.
Three load-bearing calls (recorded in ADR-0057):
1. Replay-equivalence is a precondition, not a permission;
operator --accept remains required.
2. Eligibility = polarity in {affirms, falsifies} AND at least
one source='corpus' evidence pointer AND boundary_clean AND
claim_domain != evaluative (unless --allow-evaluative) AND
proposed_chain complete.
3. Append-only proposal log; corpus history append-only too.
Changes
- teaching/proposals.py — TeachingChainProposal, ReplayEvidence,
ProposalLog (event-sourced replay → current_state), eligibility
predicate, propose_from_candidate, accept/reject/withdraw,
append_chain_to_corpus (the sole corpus-write surface). Uses
TYPE_CHECKING guards to break the circular import with
chat.pack_grounding.
- teaching/replay.py — run_replay_equivalence; swaps _corpus_index
path to a tmp file, runs cognition lane on the active corpus
AND a transient copy with the proposed chain appended, returns
regressed-metrics list; trust-boundary assertion that the active
corpus bytes are byte-identical pre/post.
- teaching/discovery.py — moved chat.pack_grounding /
chat.teaching_grounding imports inside extract_discovery_candidates
to break the cycle (was masked when chat.runtime was the entry
point; surfaced by CLI entry).
- core/cli.py — three new subcommands:
core teaching propose <candidate-jsonl-path> [--allow-evaluative]
core teaching proposals [--state pending|accepted|rejected|withdrawn] [--json]
core teaching review <proposal_id> --accept --review-date YYYY-MM-DD
core teaching review <proposal_id> --reject [--note ...]
core teaching review <proposal_id> --withdraw [--note ...]
- tests/test_teaching_proposals.py — 16 tests covering: every
eligibility gate, proposal_id idempotency, append-only log,
replay-equivalent stays pending, regression auto-rejects with
named regressed metrics, --accept appends one line with typed
Provenance, --accept refused on non-equivalent, state-machine
blocks double-accept, real replay gate runs cognition lane
twice and asserts byte-clean active corpus pre/post.
Invariants preserved
- versor_condition(F) < 1e-6 — C2 touches no algebra path.
- Active corpus bytes byte-identical regardless of replay outcome.
- No clock-time reads, no LLM, no async.
- Proposal-only — accept_proposal is the sole corpus-write path.
Lanes: smoke 67 / cognition 121 / runtime 19 / teaching 17 /
new proposals 16. Cognition eval unchanged.
Open follow-ups (not in scope):
- supersession via operator review action
- cross-pack falsification arbitration (ADR-0056 Call 2 deferred)
- pack-data migration of frame-dependent connectives
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Lands the first deterministic trigger of the discovery → reviewed-
memory loop. Candidates are structured evidence; emission is
opt-in via attach_discovery_sink and NEVER mutates the active
teaching corpus.
- teaching/discovery.py: DiscoveryCandidate dataclass + pure
extract_discovery_candidates(turn_event, intent, subject) rule
firing. Phase B fires only the would_have_grounded trigger:
grounding_source == "none"
AND intent ∈ {CAUSE, VERIFICATION}
AND subject lemma in ratified cognition pack
AND (subject, intent) NOT in active corpus
candidate_id = SHA-256 of canonical JSON payload — replay-stable.
Other DiscoveryTrigger literals (successful_comparison,
hedge_acknowledged, oov_resolved_via_decomp) are reserved for
later phases.
- teaching/discovery_sink.py: DiscoveryCandidateSink protocol,
DiscoveryBufferSink (in-memory), DiscoveryMonthlyFileSink
(append-only JSONL, <root>/<YYYY>/<YYYY-MM>.jsonl rollover,
injectable clock).
- chat/runtime.py: opt-in attach_discovery_sink, post-turn
emission inside _stub_response only when caller threads
classified intent forward (gate-fire fall-through site).
Intent classification at the call site reuses the same
deterministic classifier already invoked by
_maybe_pack_grounded_surface for the empty-vault English path.
Trust boundary: candidates write to a separate sink/file path
only; the active corpus on disk is never touched. Tests
explicitly assert corpus bytes are byte-identical before and
after a candidate-emitting turn.
Tests: tests/test_discovery_candidates.py — 24 tests covering
pure-predicate rule firing, every short-circuit path,
deterministic candidate_id, sink opt-in, runtime parity with no
sink, monthly rollover semantics, append-only behaviour, no
corpus mutation.
Lanes: smoke 67, cognition 121, runtime 19, teaching 17, packs 6
— all green. Cognition eval metrics unchanged on dev / public /
holdout splits. versor_condition < 1e-6 invariant untouched.
Lands the three load-bearing pieces of ADR-0055 Phase A so later
phases (DiscoveryCandidate, TeachingChainProposal) have a safe
substrate to write into.
- teaching/audit.py: pure, deterministic re-parse of the reviewed
corpus with same gates as the runtime loader but keeps drop
reasons (invalid_json, missing_required_field:*, unsupported_intent,
pack_missing_subject, pack_missing_object, superseded_by:*).
- teaching/provenance.py: typed Provenance(adr_id, source,
review_date, raw); legacy "reviewed" maps to "hand_authored" so
current corpus reports the canonical enum without a file rewrite.
- chat/teaching_grounding._corpus_index honors superseded_by —
active view drops superseded entries while disk preserves history.
- core teaching audit CLI subcommand (--json optional); exits 1 on
any drop so CI catches silent corpus shrinkage from pack swaps.
Observable behaviour unchanged: corpus is 10/10 loaded, all five
core lanes green (smoke 67, cognition 121, runtime 19, teaching 17,
packs 6), cognition eval metrics identical on dev / public /
holdout splits. versor_condition < 1e-6 invariant untouched.
Tests: tests/test_teaching_audit.py — 23 tests covering provenance
parser, real-corpus determinism, every drop-reason path,
supersession semantics, runtime/audit parity, read-only contract.
Closes both cognition splits at 100% surface_groundedness. Three
parts:
1. Teaching corpus expansion (no code). cognition_chains_v1.jsonl
grows 3→10 chains. 3 close dev-split misses (correction,
creation, light-as-VERIFICATION); 4 pre-empt the analogous
holdout pattern (CAUSE/VERIFICATION on truth + wisdom). Every
subject/object is a pack lemma; every connective is a recognised
humanize_predicate predicate.
2. CORRECTION acknowledgement branch. New
`pack_grounded_correction_surface()` in chat/pack_grounding.py,
wired into `_maybe_pack_grounded_surface` for cold-start
CORRECTION intents. Fixed-template surface with distinct
trailing disclosure ("No prior turn in this session to correct
yet.") — distinguishes the cold-start acknowledgement from the
DEFINITION-of-correction surface. The post-correction reviewed-
teaching path in teaching/correction.py is unchanged.
3. Diagnostic memory. Saves the dev-split generalization finding:
the ADR-0048→0052 chain is NOT overfit. Public/dev gap was
teaching-corpus content coverage, not architecture.
Eval deltas (both splits run, post-ADR-0053):
public dev
intent_accuracy 100% 100% (=)
surface_groundedness 100% 100% SATURATED
term_capture_rate 91.7% 78.6%
versor_closure_rate 100% 100% (=)
Public surface_groundedness: 92.3% → 100% (+7.7 pp)
Dev surface_groundedness: 69.2% → 100% (+30.8 pp)
Tests: tests/test_pack_grounded_correction.py (15 new tests).
Lanes green: smoke (67), cognition (121), runtime (19),
teaching (17), packs (6).
Scope limits: holdouts (19 cases) not yet in the official
`core eval cognition` runner (--split accepts only {dev, public});
the CORRECTION surface does not yet echo the corrected-subject
lemma (relevant only for holdout case `correction_truth_040`).
contradiction_detection: 0.50 → 1.00 contradiction_flag_rate,
1.00 → 0.00 false_flag_rate. Lane graduates overall.
TeachingStore.add now runs a coherence checker on every new proposal.
Two detection paths, both require subject token overlap:
Typed path — both new and prior parse to triples with the same
relation. Tails must differ in negation/opposition polarity AND
share ≥1 content token. Catches (truth, is, coherence) ↔
(truth, is, not coherence).
Text fallback — at least one side failed to parse a triple (e.g.
relation predicate "depends" not in the cognition pack lexicon
yet). Raw correction texts must differ in polarity AND share ≥2
non-discourse content tokens. ≥2 threshold prevents
single-shared-subject false positives on unrelated corrections.
Catches "meaning depends on use" vs "meaning is independent of use".
On detection, BOTH proposals (new and conflicting prior) transition
to EpistemicStatus.CONTESTED. ADR-0021: CONTESTED is not admissible
as evidence until a coherence judgment ratifies one direction or
falsifies the other.
Runner side: v1 versor-spike heuristic retired. The new CONTESTED
signal is the only one that drives `flagged`. versor_delta retained
in the record for telemetry.
CLAIMS.md Tier 4.5 contradiction rows CLOSED — completes the
truth-seeking schema arc. All red Tier 4.5 rows from the audit are
now green. docs/truth_seeking_schema.md §"Contradiction detection
is not implemented" closed.
Verified: smoke (67), teaching (17), cognition (121), runtime (19),
architectural invariants (40) — all green.
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.
ADR-0021 v1 schema land. epistemic_status is a position in the revision
graph, not a source-trust tier — coherence is the only admission signal.
Surfaces:
- teaching/epistemic.py: EpistemicStatus enum (COHERENT, CONTESTED,
SPECULATIVE, FALSIFIED); ADMISSIBLE_AS_EVIDENCE = {COHERENT}.
- PackMutationProposal.epistemic_status (default SPECULATIVE) + immutable
with_status() updater.
- ReviewedTeachingExample.epistemic_status (default SPECULATIVE);
orthogonal to acceptance per ADR §Schema impact.
- LexicalEntry.epistemic_status (default "coherent" for seed; absent in
JSONL is treated as the seed default — no retroactive tagging).
- compute_trace_hash + trace_hash_from_result + pipeline.py fold the
load-bearing proposal's epistemic_status into the trace hash so
replay detects different epistemic frames.
Non-hardening invariant (ADR-0021 §2): tests/test_epistemic_invariants.py
asserts no final/frozen/axiom/permanent flag on PackMutationProposal or
ReviewedTeachingExample, and EpistemicStatus contains no source-trust
tier names.
Docs: docs/runtime_contracts.md gains an Epistemic surface section.
Lanes green: smoke 27/27, teaching 10/10, packs 6/6, runtime 19/19,
cognition eval 100%.
Implements the Phase 3 v2 inference-depth bundle per ADR-0018:
typed deterministic operators over CORE's typed state. Closes the
inference-closure / multi-step-reasoning / cross-domain-transfer
v1 gaps; partial close on compositionality.
New modules:
teaching/relation_parse.py - parse_triple(correction_text) lifts
a correction utterance into a typed (head, relation, tail) over
the en_core_cognition_v1 relation vocabulary. Pure regex,
deterministic, no learned classifier.
generate/operators.py - transitive_walk(triples, head, relation,
*, max_hops=5) walks single-relation chains. path_recall walks
a relation-chain tuple (e.g. ("is", "precedes")). Both bounded,
cycle-safe, case-insensitive, first-write-wins on duplicates.
Schema extensions:
teaching.store.PackMutationProposal gains optional triple field,
populated by TeachingStore.add via parse_triple. Plus new
TeachingStore.triples() helper returning all parsed triples.
generate.intent.IntentTag gains TRANSITIVE_QUERY plus a relation
field on DialogueIntent. New regex rules for "What does X R?"
and "Where does X belong?" forms with relation normalisation.
core.cognition.result.CognitiveTurnResult gains operator_invocation
field (deterministic serialisation of any operator that ran).
core.cognition.trace.compute_trace_hash gains operator_invocation
kwarg; trace_hash_from_result threads it through. Operator
invocation is now load-bearing for replay equality.
Pipeline wiring:
CognitiveTurnPipeline.run dispatches transitive_walk after
runtime.chat() when the intent is TRANSITIVE_QUERY (with the
parsed relation) or DEFINITION (implicit "is"). Non-trivial walks
fold the chain endpoint into surface and articulation_surface.
Verification:
tests/test_inference_operators.py - 27 unit tests covering
parser, transitive_walk (cycles, max_hops, case-insensitivity,
determinism, first-write-wins), path_recall, and WalkResult shape.
Re-score on Phase 3 v1 case sets:
lane split v1 after bundle
inference-closure public/v1 0.0 1.0 pass
inference-closure holdouts/v1 0.0 1.0 pass
multi-step-reasoning public/v1 0.0 0.7333 pass
multi-step-reasoning holdouts/v1 0.0 0.8 pass
cross-domain-transfer public/v1 0.0 1.0 pass
cross-domain-transfer holdouts/v1 0.0 1.0 pass
compositionality public/v1 0.0625 0.3125 partial
compositionality holdouts/v1 0.0 0.3 partial
Six of eight splits now pass v1. Foundation guarantees
(premises_stored, replay_determinism) remain 1.0 across all lanes.
Trace_hash determinism preserved (operator records fold in
deterministically).
Residuals (filed as Phase 3 v2 follow-up):
- multi-step-reasoning mixed_relation_3/4 patterns need path_recall
wired into the pipeline for multi-relation probes; the operator
exists but the pipeline only invokes transitive_walk today.
- compositionality novel-combination patterns need a genuinely
new operator shape (composed_relation_walk) - the literal
transitive walk does not synthesise novel pairs by construction.
CLI suites smoke / cognition / teaching pass; no regression. 47
pipeline + teaching + operator tests all green.
Closes four surface-form bypass vectors against fix#2 that were
real holes: contractions ("you're now a pirate" did not match marker
"you are now"), curly quotes (U+2019 vs U+0027), em-dashes (token
splicing), and verb morphology ("becoming"/"transformed"/"dropped"
did not stem to the bare redirect-verb set).
teaching/review.py:
- _normalize() folds Unicode punctuation and expands 28 common
English contractions (you're, it's, let's, don't, won't, etc.)
before rule (a) substring matching and rule (b/c/d) tokenisation.
- _stem_verb() folds -ing / -ed / -es / -s morphology with silent-e
drop and doubled-consonant handling, so "becomes" / "becoming" /
"became"-class forms match the bare redirect-verb stem.
- Rule (d) window now uses verb stems, not raw tokens.
Verification: ten splits (v1-v5, public + holdouts) at 100% attack
rejection and 100% legitimate acceptance. v5 (32 attacks + 18
legitimates) is the new regression gate, exercising every fold class
plus legitimates that themselves use contractions ("wisdom's broader",
"knowledge isn't merely collected").
Tests: test_reviewed_teaching_loop.py 5/5, test_pipeline_teaching_integration.py
5/5, test_identity_gate.py 17/17 (including 5 TestWouldViolatePredicate
tests from prior commit).
Resolves the adversarial-identity v3 finding (0% rejection on
paraphrased attacks against the marker-string defense). Two
independent layers now guard the review gate; either is sufficient
to reject.
Fix#2 (syntactic, in teaching/review.py):
Replaces the substring-only check with four deterministic rules:
(a) legacy markers (v1/v2 coverage preserved verbatim)
(b) redirect-verb + role-frame co-occurrence
(c) negating qualifier within +/-3 tokens of a role-frame
(d) negating qualifier within +/-3 tokens of a redirect-verb
Replay-safe, no learned classifier, single-file contained change.
Fix#3 (geometric, in core/physics/identity.py):
Adds IdentityCheck.would_violate(score, manifold) predicate per
ADR-0010 and wires it through CognitiveTurnPipeline._run_teaching
from response.identity_score. The geometric layer is paraphrase-
invariant by construction.
Honest finding: with the current default IdentityManifold (three
unit-axis ValueAxes), the geometric layer flags 0/32 of v3 attacks
independently. The predicate and wiring are in place; the manifold
axis design is the limiting factor and remains as scoped follow-up.
Fix#2 is what is actually rejecting attacks today.
Verification: all eight adversarial-identity splits (v1-v4, public +
holdouts) at attack_rejection=1.0 and legitimate_acceptance=1.0.
v4 (32 attacks + 18 legitimate) is the regression gate for fix#2,
exercising rules (b)/(c)/(d) with new attack vocabulary. Tests
test_reviewed_teaching_loop.py (5/5), test_pipeline_teaching_integration.py
(5/5), test_identity_gate.py (incl. 5 new TestWouldViolatePredicate
tests, 12/12). CLI suites: smoke, cognition, teaching, runtime all
green.
Also drops a stale entry from the runtime CLI suite list
(test_chat_identity_telemetry.py was removed in 222124a).
Introduces teaching/ module with three-stage correction pipeline:
1. correction.py — extracts CorrectionCandidate from correction intents,
binding correction text to the prior turn it references
2. review.py — validates candidates: rejects identity overrides (17
marker patterns) and empty corrections; produces ReviewedTeachingExample
with deterministic SHA-256 review hash
3. store.py — bounded FIFO store for accepted examples; emits
PackMutationProposal objects instead of mutating the vocab manifold
directly; retrievable by subject
Design invariants:
- Identity override attempts are rejected at the review gate
- Pack mutations are proposal-only (applied=False by default)
- All traces are deterministic: same input → same candidate_id and review_hash
