Narrow product promotion boundary (`generate/derivation/product_bridge.py`)
wired into `generate/math_candidate_graph.py`: only complete pure-product
derivations with a product-target question and no known hazard surface lift
from the sealed pooled derivation reader into serving.
- Serving train_sample: 4/46/0 → 6/44/0, wrong=0; case 0050 still refused.
- Renumbered from the collided ADR-0194 (labeled-container, #499) to ADR-0195
and rebased onto current main.
CI: smoke + verify-pinned-lane-SHAs green on the merge commit.
GSM8K labels containers/regions with a trailing single-letter or short-numeric
label ('Jar A has 28 marbles', 'Section G has 10 cars', 'District 2 has 19
voters'); the initial-possession entity slot captured only 'Jar' and the label
broke the match. Adds a separate sibling pattern _INITIAL_HAS_LABELED_RE
(mirroring ADR-0136.S.4 localisation) that REQUIRES the label, so the global
_ENTITY is unchanged and bare subjects yield no duplicate candidate.
- Composes with ADR-0193 aggregate question: 'Jar A has 28 marbles. Jar B has
12 marbles. How many marbles are there in total?' -> 40.0.
- 0 real-corpus metric flip (honest substrate): the one real multi-container
aggregate additionally needs comparative + multiplicative + lowercase-ref.
- wrong=0 HOLDS full corpus (7,473 q); train_sample byte-identical 4/46/0;
synthetic-registry capability-axis gate + G5 lane green; smoke 67 passed.
- Label bounded by the possession verb: multi-word nouns ('Jar Apple') do NOT
match. wrong=0 held downstream by completeness + round-trip + disagreement.

Extends ADR-0131.G.5's total-across aggregate branch with the existential
verb frame 'How many <unit> are there <cue>?' over the SAME closed cue
vocabulary (no cue-set widening). The solver already sums entity=None
total-across; the wall was purely the question parser's verb-frame coverage.
- Composes end-to-end: 'Jamie has 28 marbles. Kyle has 12 marbles. How many
marbles are there in total?' -> 40.0 (load-bearing, not inert).
- 23 real GSM8K problems now parse the question (advance past the Q-wall to
the statement-parse wall).
- wrong=0 HOLDS on the full 7,473-q corpus; train_sample byte-identical
4/46/0; no metric delta (composition-wall lesson, third instance).
- Cross-ADR discipline: 'What is the total number of <unit>?' is DEFERRED,
not contradicted — ADR-0131.G.5 pins it as a refusal probe; promoting it
must amend that ADR's closed-cue contract. test_total_number_of_still_deferred
locks the boundary.
Firewall: completeness guard (ADR-0191) + question round-trip refuse conjoined
('dogs and cats') and derived ('animal legs') units. G5 lane + synthetic-registry
wrong=0 capability-axis gate green; smoke 67 passed.

The discrete_count matcher gated the counted noun on a CLOSED ratified set
(observed_counted_nouns): 'Betty has 24 marbles' matched, 'Randy has 60 mango
trees' / 'Sam has 12 red apples' did not — purely because the noun was unseen.
Open the single-anchor possession/acquisition path to an open noun phrase
(adjective* + 1-3 word head, bounded by a stop-word lookahead so it never
swallows a trailing PP), keeping every other narrowness layer (proper-noun
subject, verb whitelist, single numeric token, no clause-split). Closed
observed nouns still match (capitalized compounds preserved); compound
enumeration stays closed.
Safe because ADR-0191 moved the wrong=0 guarantee downstream: an open-vocab
mis-parse hits the completeness guard + round-trip + branch-disagreement.
Proof: full real corpus 61->494 discrete_count anchors (8x), wrong=0 HOLDS,
zero confabulations.
Substrate PR — 0 metric delta by design (train_sample byte-identical 4/46/0;
the problems still need composition downstream). Value: the foundation every
discrete_count flip consumes, and empirical proof open-vocab is firewall-safe.

* fix(adr-0191): candidate-graph completeness guard — real-corpus wrong 5->0
The candidate-graph reader (serving) checked grounding + round-trip but had
no completeness obligation, so problems whose later clauses failed to parse
emitted a partial reading. Over the full 7,473-question real GSM8K train
split this confabulated 5 answers (wrong!=0) the 47-case train_sample hid;
2 were regressions from #488.
Add the missing admissibility leg (mirrors the derivation reader's verify.py):
every source quantity (all statements + question) must be consumed by the
chosen reading, else refuse. Refusal-only -> cannot create a wrong answer.
Number-sense is pack-authoritative (en_numerics_v1 parse_compound_cardinal +
lookup_multiplier + all 6 currency symbols) so it never disagrees with the
engine; aggregating initials expose consumed_value_tokens provenance.
Evidence: real-corpus wrong 5->0, correct held at 4; train_sample byte-
identical 4/46/0; G1-G5+S1+G3.1 green; smoke 67 passed; math_teaching_corpus
lane byte-identical.

* feat(adr-0191): committed full-corpus GSM8K microscope (standing wrong=0 + coverage instrument)
Promotes the throwaway tmp/ microscope that found the 5 confabulations into a
committed tool. Runs the canonical serving reader over any GSM8K corpus and
reports failures-first: correct/wrong/refused, every wrong answer by name,
refusal families, and the no-injection per-category coverage map that ranks
which injector to build next by real frequency.
Default corpus is the committed 47-case train_sample (always available);
--corpus path runs the full real split. This is the ADR-0191 follow-up: re-run
after every capability PR, not just train_sample — a flip is only real if it
does not widen the confabulation surface.

The attempt/score/ledger half existed (run_practice -> ClassTally scored vs
gold); nothing consulted the gate to turn earned reliability into a ratifiable
proposal. Adds core/reliability_gate/propose.py (propose_from_ledger +
RatifiableProposal): for each class, license_for(PROPOSE) emits a proposal iff
its conservative Wilson floor (0 below N_MIN=10) clears theta=0.85. Refusals
never penalize; deterministic; PROPOSAL-ONLY (never a serving mutation).
propose_runner.py closes the loop end-to-end with an aggressive sealed scorer
(resolve_pooled): practice 95c/5w/50r -> ONE proposal (additive, reliability
0.8608>=0.85, 95/100); 5 wrongs tolerated but floor held; rest stayed sealed.
The gold-tethered autonomous contemplation: the engine earns the right to ASK,
not to SERVE. 11 failing-under-violation tests.
* feat(adr-0189): comparative reading — anchor-verb widening + multi-word units
The candidate-graph comparative extractor (ADR-0131.G.2) read only has/have +
single-word units, so real-GSM8K comparatives ('Brooke does three times as many
jumping jacks as Sidney') didn't parse — a dark statement in 17 places blocking
15 of the 47 refused train_sample cases, despite the ADR-0123 solver already
supporting compare_additive/compare_multiplicative.
Widens the anchor-verb set (reusing legacy vetted lemmas + does/collected/
gained/studied…), EXCLUDING polarity-inverting verbs (lose/spend/give/sell/win)
to preserve wrong=0; admits 1-2 word units via the existing multi-word
_unit_grounds branch. Feeds the existing solver unchanged.
wrong=0 proven: G2_comparatives 29/29, G3 20/0, G4 32/32, train_sample 3/47/0
byte-identical; polarity-inverting verbs proven refused (failing-under-violation).
Chain composes correctly in isolation (146 -> 438). Flips 0 cases ALONE — every
comparative case needs a composing partner (aggregation / multi-word-noun
injection); this ships the component, not yet a flip.
- generate/math_candidate_parser.py: _comparison_anchor_verb widening + 1-2 word
unit slots in the two multiplicative comparative regexes.
- tests/test_adr_0131_G2a_*: 5 tests incl. polarity-inversion wrong=0 guards.
- docs/decisions/ADR-0189: gap, change, wrong=0 evidence, honest scope.
* feat(adr-0189a): first metric move 3/47/0 -> 4/46/0 (case 0024, comprehension-composed)
Case 0024 now SOLVES (answer 438) by composing three general comprehension
capabilities feeding the unchanged ADR-0123 solver:
1. day-of-week count enumeration: Sidney = 20+36+40+50 = 146
(_day_enumeration_candidates; derived sum grounds via first count token,
mirroring _embedded_quantifier; closed to the 7 day names)
2. comparative reading (ADR-0189): Brooke = 3 x Sidney
3. activity question 'How many <unit> did <Entity> <verb>?' (_Q_DID_RE)
Plus do/does/did added to the CandidateInitial anchor whitelist (production-
possession), admitted only via the closed day-enumeration shape.
wrong=0 PROVEN across every lane: all 8 capability axes wrong=0 (G2_comparatives
29/29, G3 20/0, G4 32/32, G5/S1/S3/S4 all pass), train_sample 4/46/0 wrong=0,
verify_lane_shas exit 0 (no pinned lane changed), generate_claims --check OK.
872 tests pass; new tests are failing-under-violation incl. wrong=0 guards
(non-day comma list not summed; polarity-inverting comparative verbs refused).
Re-baselined report.json + train_sample_coverage_report.json (latter also clears
pre-existing reason drift) + CLAIMS.md to the new 4/46/0 metric. Decode-not-guess:
0024 solved by READING its structure, not storing an answer. Remaining pre-existing
failures (G3 committed-report, telemetry) unrelated, fail on pristine main.
- generate/math_candidate_parser.py: day-enum extractor + _Q_DID_RE + does-anchor.
- tests/test_adr_0189a_day_enum_activity.py: 5 tests (incl. end-to-end 0024=438).
- docs/decisions/ADR-0189a + report.json/coverage/CLAIMS re-baseline.
* docs(adr-0186): sealed candidate-graph injector lane (resume ADR-0170 W2-W5 under ADR-0175 seal)
Topology audit found two disjoint GSM8K readers: the candidate-graph reader
owns the official 3/47/0 metric and already has divide/multiply/compare; its
wall is the recognizer->injection coverage gap (ADR-0170 W2-W5 backlog), not
arithmetic. The derivation reader (resolve_pooled) is a separate sealed organ
that cannot reach the goal without an unbuilt Phase-5 bridge.
ADR-0186 reconciles ADR-0170's injector roadmap with ADR-0175's serving seal:
develop W2-W5 injectors behind a default-off 'sealed' flag on inject_from_match,
measured on a new report_sealed.json, with frozen 3/47/0 byte-identical until a
reviewed Phase-5 promotion. wrong=0 gated on both paths.
Live-loop instrumentation found a schema-vs-extraction split: rate_with_currency
and temporal_aggregation matchers already extract full anchors (blocked on the
CandidateRate union / apply_rate primitive), while discrete_count/currency/
multiplicative are blocked on matcher extraction. And no refused case is one
injector away - every case is multi-statement, so the unit of measurable
progress is a target case's complete injector+composition set. Sequencing:
seal mechanism first, CandidateRate schema next, then a first complete
target-case unlock.
* feat(adr-0186): sealed candidate-graph injector lane mechanism (default-off)
Adds the seal mechanism for developing ADR-0170 W2-W5 injectors without
mutating the frozen serving metric:
- inject_from_match(match, sentence, *, sealed=False): when sealed=True,
consults the new _SEALED_INJECTORS table first; default-off never touches it.
- _SEALED_INJECTORS: empty at land (this PR ships the mechanism; the first
sealed capability is the CandidateRate schema, ADR-0186 §5.3).
- parse_and_solve(text, *, sealed=False): threads the flag to the per-statement
injection site. The seal is injector eligibility, not a forked reader.
wrong=0 guarantees (tests/test_adr_0186_sealed_injector_lane.py, failing-
under-violation): empty seal is a strict no-op; a registered sealed injector
admits ONLY under sealed=True and is invisible to the frozen path; train_sample
report stays 3/47/0. Verified: coverage probe 3/47/0 byte-identical, smoke +
architectural invariants green, 288 candidate-graph/recognizer tests pass (2
pre-existing failures unrelated, confirmed on unmodified main).
* docs(adr-0185): mark superseded by ADR-0186 (premise refuted by topology audit)
The topology audit proved ADR-0185's premise ('the engine cannot divide') is
true only of the derivation reader, which is disjoint from the candidate-graph
reader that owns the official 3/47/0 metric. The goal organ already divides;
its wall is injection coverage. ADR-0185 is retained as a record, not
implemented; cross-referenced from ADR-0186 §header.
* docs(adr-0184): scope the distinct-unit product rule — cut the product-of-all over-commit
The 47-refusal coverage diagnostic surfaced that the headline 3/47/0 (serving
recognizer) hides the sealed comprehension reader's real state: resolve_pooled over
the 50 real train_sample cases is 2 correct / 13 WRONG / 35 refused. The confuser
probe's wrong=0 was a misleading proxy — all 13 real wrongs are the whole-text
product-of-all, the unique complete candidate, committed unopposed.
Scopes the first lever, decided by MEASURING candidate refusal rules against the real
metric (correct up, wrong down on train_sample):
baseline 2 / 13 / 35
distinct-unit product (chosen) 2 / 8 / 40 <- cuts 5, zero coverage loss
product spans >1 clause 1 / 4 / 45 <- destroys correct 0003
drop all products 0 / 2 / 48
The distinct-unit rule: multiply/divide may compose DISTINCT units but a multiply
step whose operand repeats a non-empty unit already in the product (apples x apples,
cards x cards) is unit-incoherence -> refuse (unit^2 is never the answer). Empty-unit
operands exempt (0003 multiplies a blank-unit 0.75). Dimensional, not lexical
(ADR-0165-safe); refines verify.py clause 3 shared by self_verifies + classify.
Honest scope: 13->8, NOT 0. The remaining 8 are distinct-unit products in the wrong
shape (rate problems) = cue precision (ADR-0177 CP-2b), the next lever, NOT to be
faked with a per-case rule. Establishes the real scoreboard (resolve_pooled over
train_sample) and notes the ratification bridge (ADR-0175 Phase 5) as the separate
dependency for any of this to reach the serving headline.
Spec only; serving 3/47/0 untouched (verify is not on the serving path).
* feat(adr-0184): distinct-unit product rule — sealed reader real-GSM8K wrong 13->8
Cuts the over-eager product-of-all on real GSM8K. The sealed comprehension reader
(resolve_pooled over train_sample) was 2 correct / 13 WRONG / 35 refused; all 13 are
the whole-text product-of-all committed unopposed (0042->2.4M, 0048->19200,
0001->14400). This is the first lever measured against the REAL metric (resolve_pooled
over train_sample), not the curated confuser count.
Mechanism (verify._is_repeated_unit_product + classify_derivation downgrade):
a pure multiplicative chain whose operands repeat a non-empty unit forms unit^2
(apples x apples, cards x cards) -- never the answer; it is the product-of-all
multiplying independent groups. Such a product is classified `exempt`
(commit-INELIGIBLE), NOT removed. Empty units exempt (0003 multiplies blank-unit
0.75); divide exempt (feet/feet = legitimate count). Dimensional, not lexical
(ADR-0165-safe).
Implementation finding (folded into ADR §3.1): the naive version put the predicate
in the shared _base_reasons gate, which DROPPED the product and regressed the
confuser probe 1->3 -- the disguised-polarity 0001/0003 refuse only because the
coins x coins product DISAGREES with the coins + coins accumulation reading; dropping
it unmasked the additive reading as a unique wrong commit (80/30). The fix is the
downgrade: keep it as a commit-ineligible `exempt` candidate so it still forces the
disagreement. Pinned by test_downgrade_not_removal_preserves_disagreement_refusal.
Evidence (sealed lane; chat/ does not import verify -> serving frozen):
- resolve_pooled over train_sample: 2 correct / 8 wrong / 40 refused (was 2/13/35);
the 5 repeated-unit products (0001/0017/0042/0045/0048) now refuse, 0003/0021 kept.
- confuser probe: wrong unchanged (no 0001/0003 regression), positives still solve.
- serving train_sample 3/47/0 and practice (accumulation + search) 3/47/0
byte-identical; self_verifies/_base_reasons unchanged so search lanes are untouched.
- 171 derivation/pool/verify tests + 40 architectural invariants green.
Honest scope: 13->8, NOT 0. The remaining 8 (0011/0016/0018/0019/0025/0028/0032/0047)
are distinct-unit products in the wrong shape (rate problems) = cue precision
(ADR-0177 CP-2b), the next lever -- not to be faked with a per-case rule. Carries the
corrected ADR-0184 (supersedes the spec-only #484).
* feat(adr-0182): anchor-skip + intra-clause accumulation — distractor 0016 refuses, twin 0017 solves (confuser wrong 1->0)
The last confuser wrong. 0016 ("A train travels 60 miles per hour for 2 hours. Tom
has 8 tickets and buys 4 more tickets. How many tickets?") committed the blunt
product 60x2x8x4=3840 because it was the unique complete reading: the train sentence
is an all-foreign anchor-position block (2 quantities, can't seed an anchor) and the
Tom sentence packs state+change in ONE sentence ("has 8 ... and buys 4 more"), which
the sentence-level reader couldn't decompose -> accumulation_candidates was empty ->
no rival reading -> product committed.
The microscope confirmed intra-clause state+change is a REAL GSM8K pattern (train-0010
"Yun had 20 paperclips initially, but then lost 12"; practice-0121 "Sam has 30 apples
and gives 10 to Anna") -- so this is genuine comprehension, not a 0016-only patch.
Mechanism (added to accumulation_candidates ONLY -> feeds only the pool; train_sample
serving + practice use compose_accumulation, unchanged -> 3/47/0 byte-identical by
construction):
- _sub_clauses: sentence clauses further split on coordinating conjunctions
(and / then / and then). LOCAL to the ungated candidate generator -- the global
segmenter (GB-1/GB-2/serving) is untouched.
- _build_accumulation_anchor_skip: anchor = first single-quantity sub-clause (leading
non-anchorable all-foreign blocks are skipped); chain the conjunction-mate change
("buys 4 more" -> +4). Referent guard + polarity-cue requirement still gate it
(a no-cue sub-clause -> refuse), so GB-2 same-unit lists ("6 apples and 4 apples")
produce no spurious candidate.
Result (sealed lane):
- confuser wrong 1 -> 0. distractor-quantity 0 wrong / 2 refused: 0016 refuses
(product 3840 [complete] vs additive 12 [exempt] disagree). BONUS: the clean twin
0017 ("Tom has 8 tickets and buys 4 more tickets", no distractor) now *solves* 12
-- genuine comprehension of a real positive, the comprehension-vs-surface-match
discrimination the corpus exists to measure. genuine positives 7 -> 8 solved.
- the only non-clean verdict left is 1 spurious (0010 multi-referent "altogether" --
a separate H1 graduation question, not this lever).
- train_sample 3/47/0 and practice 3/47/0 byte-identical; 243 derivation/pool tests
+ 40 architectural invariants green.
Tests:
- test_adr_0182_pool.py TestAnchorSkipIntraClause: intra-clause twin resolves to 12;
the 0016 anchor-skip candidate classifies `exempt`; 0016 refuses via disagreement;
no spurious extra candidate without a conjunction.
- test_adr_0163_f2_confusers.py: baseline wrong 1->0, positives_solved 7->8; renamed
test_distractor_quantity_refuses asserts BOTH 0014 and 0016; new
test_intra_clause_twin_0017_solves.
Stacked on #480 (prior-state guard); merge #480 first. Confuser arc wrong 7->5->2->1->0.
* test(adr-0182): close anchor-skip refuse-branch coverage gap (lookback finding)
The four-PR lookback review (EX-6/pooling/prior-state/anchor-skip) found the
anchor-skip refuse branches in _build_accumulation_anchor_skip untested: the
referent guard (new named actor -> refuse) and the polarity-cue requirement were
asserted but not proven (no test would fail if removed). Per the schema-obligation
discipline, add NON-VACUOUS failing-under-violation tests:
- test_anchor_skip_referent_guard_discriminates_actor: identical structure, change
sub-clause subject is a pronoun ('he', same referent -> 12 IS produced) vs a new
name ('Sara' -> guard suppresses it). Removing _same_referent makes the new-actor
case also produce 12 -> the second assertion fails. (Non-vacuous: the positive
control proves the path is reachable, so the negative isn't trivially-empty.)
- test_anchor_skip_requires_a_polarity_cue: 'gets 4 more' (cue -> 12) vs 'owns 4'
(no cue -> not guessed). Removing the polarity gate makes the no-cue case produce
a reading -> fails.
- test_anchor_skip_refuses_without_single_quantity_anchor: no single-quantity
sub-clause -> () (does not force a multi-quantity clause to anchor).
No code change; behavior unchanged. Confuser wrong stays 0; 281 derivation tests +
40 invariants green.
The wrong=0-critical clause in pool.resolve_pooled (an exempt-only answer
never commits; a complete reading is required to resolve) had no test that
failed when it was removed: the _EXEMPT_ONLY fixture's pool also contained a
complete product (20*3*5=300), so refusal came from the disagreement rule,
not commit-ineligibility. Mutation-disabling the clause left all tests green.
Inject a single-exempt pool directly (the aggressive composers manufacture a
competing complete product for any natural text, so a corpus fixture cannot
isolate the branch). Removing the clause now commits 25 and fails loudly.
Rename the old fixture/test to state honestly that it refuses via disagreement.
The "before/left" reading-rule lever. The microscope showed only the question-time
reading is cleanly achievable: "for N money = spend" is cue-precision-blocked (the
`for` cue is overloaded across train_sample -- `for $2`, `for 14 days`, `for 10 reps`
-- so a spend rule risks regressing train-0021/0003 and is the overfitting trap),
and the disguised-polarity cases already refuse via pooling. "left" is already handled
by loss verbs.
What ships: a question-scope guard. A question asking for a state *before* a stated
change ("How much did Lisa have before lunch?", gold 50) asks for a temporal point
the forward composers do not compute -- they derive the final/net state (50-20=30).
Until a question-time reader exists that is a refusal, never a guess at the wrong
point. target.asks_prior_state detects before/initially/originally/at first/to begin
with/to start with/at the start in the QUESTION CLAUSE only (the last `?`-sentence),
so body narrative does not trip it -- verified safe against train-0003 ("sells before
school starts"), 0010 ("had 20 initially, then lost 12"), 0028. `used to` is excluded
(the purpose infinitive "beads used to make a bracelet" is a false positive).
resolve_pooled refuses when asks_prior_state holds.
Result (sealed lane; chat/ does not import these -> serving 3/47/0 frozen):
- confuser wrong 2 -> 1 (only 0016 distractor-anchor-skip remains). temporal-scope
category cleared (0 wrong / 2 refused). pair-tells 1 -> 0: 0020 ("before lunch")
refuses while its minimal-pair twin 0021 ("left", gold 30) still solves the net --
the discrimination the corpus is built to measure.
- genuine positives still 7 solved, 0 wrong.
- train_sample 3/47/0 and practice 3/47/0 byte-identical.
- 205 derivation/target/pool tests + 40 architectural invariants green.
Tests:
- test_adr_0182_pool.py TestPriorStateQuestionGuard: detector true/false edges
(before-in-question vs before-in-body vs `used to make` false positive vs the
`left` twin) + resolve_pooled refuses the before-question while the left-twin
resolves forward to 30.
- test_adr_0163_f2_confusers.py: baseline wrong 2->1, pair_tells 1->0; new
test_temporal_scope_does_not_misfire + test_before_left_minimal_pair_discriminated.
Stacked on #476 (pooling); merge #476 first. 0016 anchor-skip is the next lever.
Pairs with ADR-0163-F2 graduation amendment (#478).
Implements ADR-0181 PR-6 (eval-plan §4): teachers label or align; they never
define the substrate and never fold embeddings into the versor path.
- sensorium/audio/teachers.py:
- TeacherHint: typed, versioned, checksummed annotation (no raw embeddings).
- AudioTeacher protocol (pure on the signal).
- attach_teacher_hints: the ONLY admission path — appends content.* anchors to
the IR's content_anchors (immutable, recomputes ir_sha256). content.* is not
an operator key, so compile_events skips it: versor + projection_sha256 stay
byte-identical; only the ir leg of the merge_key moves (evidence recorded).
- KNOWN_TEACHER_LANES (whisper/nemo/clap/encodec): declared + gated behind
optional extras; load_teacher import-guards and fails loudly (never a silent
fallback). StubTranscriptTeacher is the deterministic reference instance.
- parser.py: extract _ir_payload + ir_sha256_of (DRY single source of truth for
ir_sha256; byte-identical to parse() output — regression-guarded).
- pyproject.toml: audio-whisper/nemo/clap/encodec optional extras (never
runtime-required).
16 failable proof tests in tests/test_audio_teachers.py. Load-bearing:
test_teacher_hint_does_not_change_versor. Mutation-verified — giving a teacher
anchor an operator event_type (folding it into the versor) fails the
versor-invariance proof; reverted, all pass.
Additive only (ADR-0013): no core layer touched. Audio suite 57/57; eval-gate
ir_sha256 pins unchanged by the parser refactor; architectural invariants 40/40.
Real model adapters are deferred until extras+weights are present; this PR ships
the policy, the typed-hint contract, and the shadow-only guarantee.
Implements ADR-0182's first win on top of EX-6 (#473). The distractor-quantity
confuser 0014 misfired (20x3x5=300) because a blunt product-of-all was the *unique*
self-verifying reading: the completeness clause forces the distractor into it, and
no rival reading existed to trigger the wrong=0 disagreement rule. No tight cue rule
separates it from the legitimate cross-unit products (`for` licenses both the 0014
distractor AND the correct train-0021 product) -- that is the deferred cue-precision
problem. So instead of a reactive patch, let the disagreement rule do the refusing.
Mechanism (sealed lane; chat/ does not import these -> serving 3/47/0 frozen):
- verify.classify_derivation: a derivation is `complete` (commit-eligible),
`exempt` (verified but for an isolated-foreign unused quantity -> commit-
INELIGIBLE), or None. Refactored self_verifies into _base_reasons +
_unused_quantities so the two share logic and cannot drift (behavior identical;
385 derivation tests + smoke 67 green).
- accumulate.accumulation_candidates: exposes the ungated readings, incl. a
distractor-skip reading that drops an isolated-foreign quantity from a multi-
quantity change clause (20+5=25). compose_accumulation is byte-identical
(drop_isolated_foreign=False + the same gate).
- search.multiplicative_candidates / multistep.candidate_chains: ungated candidates.
- pool.resolve_pooled: pools every composer's readings; disagreement -> refuse; a
single answer commits only if a `complete` candidate produced it (exempt-only ->
refuse, so the commit-path completeness guarantee from ADR-0175 is untouched).
- confuser runner: _engine_answer now delegates to resolve_pooled (the prior
first-composer-wins order could not notice it held two incompatible readings).
Result (the microscope):
- confuser wrong 5 -> 2. distractor 0014 refuses (product 300 vs additive 25);
BONUS: both disguised-polarity cases (0001/0003) refuse -- the spurious
"buys X for N coins" product disagrees with the accumulation reading. Remaining
wrong: 0016 (distractor in the anchor clause -> needs anchor-skip, separate step)
and 0020 (temporal-scope). pair-tells 4 -> 1.
- genuine positives still 7 solved, 0 wrong.
- train_sample 3/47/0 and practice 3/47/0 byte-identical (they call
compose_accumulation/search directly -- unchanged -- not the pool).
- smoke 67, architectural invariants 40, lane-SHA freeze 8/8.
Tests:
- test_adr_0182_pool.py: classify (complete/exempt/None incl. narrow-exemption
edges) + resolve_pooled, with the wrong=0 obligation test_exempt_only_never_commits
(a distractor with no multiplicative cue must refuse, not commit 25 -- fails loudly
if the exemption is made commit-eligible).
- test_adr_0163_f2_confusers.py: baseline tightened wrong 5->2, pair_tells 4->1;
new test_distractor_0014_refuses_via_pooling + test_disguised_polarity_does_not_misfire.
Stacked on #473 (EX-6); merge #473 first. 0016 + the remaining wrongs are follow-ups.
The confuser probe's two pseudo-accumulation misfires (0005 ->796, 0007 ->996)
both traced to the same extraction blind spot: a number bonded to its unit by a
hyphen (`25-foot sections`, `20-inch pieces`) was invisible to the base
`number + space + word` pattern, so the self-verification completeness clause
never saw the divisor and the bare `buys ... gives` accumulation read as
"complete". This is the highest-leverage lever the 2026-05-29 session named
("the gate must see the fractions/25-foot it currently misses").
EX-6 adds a tight, ADR-0165-safe lexeme pass: a digit run, a single hyphen, an
alphabetic unit word. The alphabetic-only unit group keeps numeric ranges (`3-5`)
out; taking only the first hyphen segment keeps the postmodifier tail
(`25-year-old`) from inflating the unit — so it stays clear of the deferred EX-3
multi-word-unit traps. Over-extraction here is strictly refuse-preferring: making
the divisor visible drives 0005/0007 to refuse via the polarity-None
`cuts`/`splits` clause, never to a wrong answer.
Evidence (deterministic, the microscope):
- confuser probe: wrong 7 -> 5; pseudo-accumulation 0 wrong / 4 refused;
genuine positives still 7 solved; pair-tells unchanged (4).
- train_sample (capability): 3/47/0 byte-identical.
- practice accumulation: 3/47/0 (wrong=0) byte-identical.
- smoke 67 passed; lane-SHA freeze 8/8 (serving frozen).
Tests:
- TestEX6HyphenatedUnitNumbers pins the new lexeme (value+unit, decimal, no
double-count, word-compound unaffected, numeric range not read as a unit).
- TestProbeBaseline tightened wrong 7->5; new test_pseudo_accumulation_does_not_misfire
is the failing-under-violation obligation (fails loudly if the pass regresses).
- TestSlashFractionLeakHazard pins the deferred `1/4`->`4` denominator leak: not
fixed here because suppressing the leaked operand *removes* a quantity and can
unblock the completeness clause (not unambiguously refuse-preferring), so it
needs its own train_sample + probe validation.
PR-4 of ADR-0181. The acceptance-gate lane that decides whether audio_core_v1's
gate may open. Deterministic synthesis-spec fixtures (no .wav blobs) with
predicted parses, so the gates grade parser semantics as well as determinism.
evals/audio_sensorium/:
- synth.py deterministic fixture synthesis (PCG64 + float32-at-boundary)
- fixtures.json 5 specs: silence, rising-pitch question, falling statement,
noise burst, speech-then-pause
- generate_expected.py reproducible pin generator (uv run -m ...)
- expected_ir.jsonl frozen canonical_sha256 + ir_sha256 + event_type_counts
- expected_projection.json frozen projection_sha256 + reference versor
tests/test_audio_eval_gates.py (12): the gate table per fixture —
shape/dtype, versor_condition<1e-6, within-run replay, canonical-checksum
stability (hard int/cast-stable pin), IR-replay + frozen ir_sha256, semantic
event_type_counts (parser-accuracy gate), and cross-platform versor stability
within atol=1e-6 of the reference (float-safe per eval plan); plus trace
hygiene and gate-closure refusal.
Verified semantics: rise→prosody.rise, fall→prosody.fall, silence→pause.long+
turn.boundary, noise→nonspeech.noise, speech_then_pause→all three.
Cross-platform note: int/quantized-derived hashes are pinned hard; the float
versor is compared within tolerance rather than hash-pinned, since cos/sin/
geometric_product can differ by a ULP across arches. This is the eval-plan's
"equal within declared numeric tolerance" reading — keeps CI stable.
All audio 44 + arch-invariants 40 + smoke 67 green. No core mutation.
Builds the corpus from the ADR-0163-F2 spec: 30 hand-curated, real-sourced cases
across the proven misfire categories (disguised-polarity, pseudo-accumulation/
fractions, multi-referent H1, multi-actor-pronoun ADR-0174, distractor-quantity,
temporal-scope H3, comparative-referent H2, unit-confuser) + genuine-positive
minimal-pair twins. Schema carries category/surface_trap/expected/pair_id/source.
The runner scores OPPOSITE to a coverage lane: the bar is `wrong` -> 0 (a confuser
*answered* is a defect regardless of value) plus pair-consistency (solving a twin
but answering its confuser = a surface-matching tell). It runs the realistic sealed
attempt (accumulation -> multiplicative -> chain, first to resolve).
Honest measured baseline (the probe's whole point — these are the defects the
templated corpus hid): 30 cases -> 7 solved / 15 refused / 7 WRONG / 1 spurious;
4 pair-tells (0001/0003/0014/0020). Wrong by category: disguised-polarity 2
(buys-a-toy-for-30 -> +30), pseudo-accumulation 2 (the 0002 cable/fraction),
distractor-quantity 2, temporal-scope 1 (before-giving -> gave the now-value).
Per the overfitting lesson, the composers are NOT reactively patched to pass the
probe (that is the trap). The baseline is pinned as a no-regression gate (wrong
<= 7, pair-tells <= 4, positives keep solving); future fixes must be GENERAL
mechanisms validated on train_sample, driving wrong down. Sealed: serving 3/47/0
byte-identical (lane-SHA 8/8, claims OK); architectural invariants green.
The first cross-clause comprehension reading: one actor's quantity changes over
successive clauses ("Sam has 14 apples. He buys 9 more." -> 14 + 9). It is the
safe specialisation of the cross-clause sum that GB-3a refuses wholesale (the
Alice/Tom hazard) — we chain only when (same referent) AND (a licensed change
cue of unambiguous polarity), else refuse.
generate/derivation/accumulate.py — compose_accumulation:
- anchor on clause 1's single quantity; apply +M (gain) / -M (loss) per later
change clause, operand taken in the anchor's unit (accumulation is same-dimension);
routed through the unchanged self-verification gate.
- polarity (ordered, so ambiguous "gives" is resolved not guessed): "more" -> gain;
else unambiguous loss verb -> loss; else gives/gave + to/away -> loss; else
unambiguous gain verb -> gain; else REFUSE.
- referent guard (the ADR-0174 multi-actor hazard's defensive fix, built minimally
in the clean lane — NOT the retired gender-blind resolver): a later clause's
subject token must be a pronoun or the anchor's name; a NEW named subject (Tom)
-> refuse. Pronoun gender/number is not matched; a new name is the only signal.
evals/.../accumulation_runner.py — practice scorer: on a base refusal, attempt
compose_accumulation and gold-check (mirrors search_runner). Sealed: fires only
on already-refused cases, never alters serving.
Measured (sealed practice additive lane): 0 -> 55 correct, wrong unchanged at 1
(the base scorer's pre-existing one; accumulation added 55 correct, 0 wrong). The
36 still-refused are multi-change (GB-3b.2) or unrecognised verbs (vocab growth) —
conservative, never wrong.
Proof obligations (tests fail under the violation): new-named-actor refuses (H1),
no/ambiguous change cue refuses, list anchor refuses, multi-change refuses,
determinism. 136 targeted tests + architectural invariants green; serving 3/47/0
byte-identical (lane-SHA 8/8, claims --check OK).
ADR-0180 §1.5.4 + CLAUDE.md work-sequencing item 5 require these four
properties green on main before any core-rs/src/vault.rs change. They are
also the foundation ADR-0181 PR-5 (audio Delta-CRDT wiring) rides on.
T-1 set-equality of vault writes under shuffled ingest (+ idempotent
re-ingest at the content-addressed layer)
T-2 trace-hash invariance to vault order, + recall result-set invariance
to insertion order (the genuinely-failable half)
T-3 versor_apply non-commutativity (negative guard)
T-4 ProjectionHead.project purity across calls and threads
Findings (docs/audit/ADR-0180-t1-t4-findings.md):
- compute_trace_hash folds only vault_hits (a count), NOT vault contents, so
ADR-0180 §1.5.3's "re-sort vault state in content-addressed order" is
currently vacuous at the trace-hash layer; the live order-invariance
obligation is at recall() (result-set + count). Recommend amending §1.5.3.
- equal-score recall ties are index-sensitive; the Merge Kernel needs a
content-addressed tiebreak (mirrors ADR-0181 §2.2 merge key). Recommend
amending §2.2.
- append is genuinely semilattice-eligible; versor_apply is non-commutative.
7 passed; smoke suite green. No runtime/core mutation — tests + audit only.
CP-2a populates the CP-1 ledger from gold-labelled candidate readings and reports
per-pattern reliability — the measurement the cue-precision thesis rests on. Plus
the function-word unit filter, whose value this measurement makes concrete (clean
unit_shape labelling).
What landed (all sealed; serving 3/47/0 byte-identical):
- generate/cue_precision/trainer.py — train_from_cases(cases, enumerators): folds
gold-labelled candidate chains into the ledger via record_case. Decoupled (the
candidate enumerators are injected, so the package still imports nothing from
search). candidates_for dedupes a reading shared by two enumerators.
- generate/derivation/multistep.py — extracted the enumeration half of search_chain
into public candidate_chains(problem_text); search_chain now delegates (verified
byte-identical: ms3 tests + practice counts unchanged). CP-2 needs the readings
the search weighs, not just the one it resolves.
- generate/derivation/extract.py — function-word unit filter (_NON_UNIT_WORDS):
blanks spurious function-word units ($0.75 each -> "", 3/4 of -> "") that
corrupt same-unit detection and unit_shape. Closed lexeme set, ADR-0165-safe.
- evals/gsm8k_math/practice/v1/cue_precision_report.py — trains over 200 sealed
cases (50 train_sample + 150 ADR-0163-F additive) with the real enumerators and
prints the per-pattern reliability table.
- tests/test_adr_0177_cp2a_training.py — trainer obligations (credit/dedupe/
determinism/empty) via synthetic enumerators; real-measurement well-formedness;
search_chain parity.
Load-bearing finding (recorded in ADR-0177): over 200 cases EVERY (cue,op,unit_shape)
pattern floors at ~0.0 reliability (best: for-multiply-cross_unit 0.0116 at 2/34).
The blunt product/sum-of-all readings are almost always wrong vs gold, so the
conservative floor correctly trusts nothing. => CP-2b (trust reliable cues) is
blocked on candidate GENERATION, not the ledger: candidate readings must get less
crude (clause/referent structure, ADR-0178 GB-3b) before any cue earns reliability.
Cue-precision and compositional structure are coupled; structure comes first.
Verification: 107 targeted tests green (CP-2a/CP-1/extract/ms3/GB-1/2/3/MS-1/2) +
architectural invariants; serving CLAIMS.md sha unchanged; practice 4/1/45 and
0/1/149 unchanged. Inert: trains/reports only, consulted by no search/gate.
Track C of docs/handoff/PARALLEL-WORK-PLAN-2026-05-29.md asked for a tight
EX-3 multi-word-unit redo satisfying (a) "12 jumping jacks." -> "jumping
jacks", (b) "6 apples and 4 apples." -> two apples, (c) all GB-1/2/3 tests
green. The cleanest tight rule that satisfies all three —
(?<![\w.])(\d+(?:\.\d+)?)\s+([a-z]+\s+[a-z]+)(?=\s*[.?!,]|\s*$)
— was implemented and passed the four pinned test files. Full-suite
verification then surfaced a second trap the audit at
docs/handoff/AUDIT-ADR-0179-EX-RECONCILE.md did not anticipate:
postmodifier-adjective tails. "25 years old?" fires the tight rule and
produces unit "years old" rather than "years", regressing
test_adr_0176_ms1_question_target.py::TestQuestionQuantities::
test_extracts_quantity_stated_in_question and the "X years old" pattern
in tests/test_adr_0176_ms2_chain.py. The pattern is endemic in GSM8K
(cases 0006 and 0033 both use "X years old"); closing it would need a
second closed lexeme set ({old, tall, long, wide, deep, away, ago, ...})
which the brief judged too open-ended to enumerate responsibly.
Per the brief's escape hatch ("If no rule satisfies all of (a)-(c) without
a grammar template, write a note and ship no code — a refusal is fine")
this commit:
* updates extract.py's module docstring to name BOTH known traps
(connective-crossing AND postmodifier-adjective tails);
* adds tests/test_adr_0179_extract.py::TestEX3StillDeferred with two pins
asserting the postmodifier-adjective shape stays at unit "years" alone,
so no future redo silently re-introduces the regression;
* ships NO extractor code change — the regex remains exactly as on main.
Scope/safety:
* Files touched are within Track C's allowed set (extract.py + its test).
* Zero functional change: extract_quantities byte-identical to main.
* Serving lane untouched (chat/ does not import this module).
* Safe alongside GB-3b on compose.py / clauses.py.
CP-1 of ADR-0177: the per-(cue, op, unit_shape) reliability ledger + credit
assignment mechanism. Mirrors the ADR-0175 per-class ledger discipline
(core/reliability_gate/ledger.py): counts-only integers, reliability via the
pinned conservative_floor, refusals never counted as commitments.
- generate/cue_precision/ledger.py
- CuePattern: (cue, op, unit_shape) key; op in VALID_OPS, unit_shape closed-set.
- pattern_for_step / patterns_in_chain: per-step extraction. unit_shape compares
the operand unit to the model's running (primary/start) unit; a dimensionless
comparative scalar scales within the dimension -> same_unit.
- PatternTally: counts-only (correct/wrong, no refused axis); reliability =
conservative_floor(correct, committed); 0.0 while cold/below N_MIN.
- CuePrecisionLedger: immutable pattern->tally map (canonical sorted tuple);
record_chain / record_case credit candidate chains by gold label, independent
of whether the search resolved or refused.
Inert substrate: not wired into the gate, any scorer, or the search (CP-2/CP-3).
Imported by nothing outside its own tests (asserted by a source-tree scan).
Tests (tests/test_adr_0177_cp1_ledger.py, 27 passing): pattern validation;
unit_shape classification; cold ledger -> 0 reliability; credit assignment;
refusals-not-counted; reliability earned by volume; determinism/replay;
immutability; inertness scan. Smoke suite green (67 passed).
The mandated lookback review before GB-3 (CLAUDE.md §Lookback Review Discipline)
confirmed the audit's hazards H1/H2/H3 were LIVE: compose_sequential summed
same-unit quantities from the whole problem, merging unrelated referents/scopes
and admitting wrong structures whose value happened to ground:
H1 (second actor's apples) -> 6+4+2 = 12
H2 (comparative on other actor) -> (6+4)*2 = 20
H3 (later depletion event) -> 6+4+3 = 13
Root cause is the audit's G1/D2 drift: GB-2a re-extracts from the whole text and
ignores GB-1's clause structure. The fix is the GB-3 increment — make the composer
clause-scoped (consume segment_clauses), refusing when the licensed structure spans
clauses, because this slice cannot model referents:
- quantities must live in exactly ONE clause (0 or >1 -> refuse);
- a comparative outside that clause -> refuse (unmodelled referent binding).
All three hazards now refuse; all 7 GB-2 single-clause structures preserved
(list-sum, three-item, sum-then-scale, and the mixed-unit/disagreement/too-few
refusals). tests/test_adr_0178_gb3_referent_guard.py would fail against the
pre-guard code (12/20/13), so the obligation is proven, not decorative.
Scope/safety:
- compose_sequential is sealed substrate, not wired to a scorer -> serving
byte-identical 3/47/0 (lane-SHA 8/8, generate_claims --check OK); practice
unchanged 4/1/45. No new test failures (2 pre-existing on main).
- ADR-0178 amended: GB-2 relabelled GB-2a (list slice, drift G1 recorded);
GB-3 split into GB-3a (this referent guard, landed) and GB-3b (constructive
cross-clause chaining, next).
Reconciles ChatGPT's four independently-branched extraction PRs (#451/#452/
#453/#454) into one coherent generate/derivation/extract.py. They each rewrote
the same file + same new test off main, so they conflicted pairwise and needed
integration, not a merge.
Integrated (span-tracked, most-specific-pass-first so numbers are never double
counted):
- EX-1 word-numbers (#452): reuses WORD_NUMBERS; tens-one hyphen compounds;
factor-bearing half/third/quarter excluded.
- EX-4 list-unit inheritance (#451): bare numeric list with one trailing unit.
- EX-5 sentence-final numbers (#454): bare final number with empty unit.
Deferred: EX-3 multi-word units (#453). Its greedy lowercase span reads
"6 apples and 4 apples" as unit "apples and", regressing GB-2's
test_same_unit_list_sums, and still can't recover real multi-word units from
0024-class text ("jumping jacks on"). Needs a tighter rule; see
docs/handoff/AUDIT-ADR-0179-EX-RECONCILE.md.
Verification (sealed lane only; chat/ does not import this module):
- Serving frozen: lane-SHA 8/8 match, generate_claims --check OK -> 3/47/0
byte-identical, wrong=0 held.
- Sealed practice improved 4/2/44 -> 4/1/45: case 0025 flips wrong->refused.
EX-1 reads "three", so completeness sees a quantity the 6x50 chain omits and
refuses the spurious 300 (gold 1200) instead of committing it.
- No new test failures (3 pre-existing on main).
Also fixes stale test drift from EX-2 (#447): TestDecimalGroundingGapIsDeferred
asserted decimals still refuse, but #447 made $0.75-class resolve to 864.
Renamed to TestDecimalGroundingResolves and updated to assert the flip.
Honest scope note: EX-4 does NOT unblock real case 0024 (its PR test used a
fabricated bare-list paraphrase). TestRealCase0024StillBlocked pins the true
boundary.
EX-2 — the ONE shared-primitive (serving-path) touch of extraction richness.
_value_grounds already grounds the symbol form $N.NN (currency) and N/M (fraction);
a decimal written WITHOUT a symbol ('0.75') is never a single token (the tokenizer
splits on '.') so it failed to ground — refusing correct products like 0003
(48*24*0.75=864). Now a bare decimal 'N.M' grounds when both digit-runs appear,
symmetric with the $N.NN and N/M branches. Only returns True on a match; non-matching
decimals fall through (refuse).
wrong=0 (the load-bearing obligation, this being a shared/serving-path change):
- serving 3/47/0 BYTE-IDENTICAL (verified).
- round-trip + candidate-graph tests 51/51.
- lane-SHA gate (pinned eval lanes unchanged) — verified before merge.
Payoff: 0003 unblocked in sealed practice (search_chain -> 864 = gold; +1 flip).
Decimal cases that now ground but mis-compose become sealed eliminations (learning
signal); serving untouched. 6 EX-2 tests (decimal grounds/refuses, integer
unchanged, serving byte-identical, 0003 resolves).
GB-2 first increment (ADR-0178). compose_sequential() adds the structure the blunt
MS-3 shapes couldn't reach: a same-unit quantity LIST sums (additive cue), and any
stated comparative scales the sum (sum-then-scale, 0024-family). Op-per-step from
text structure (list => add; comparative => scale); operands are text quantities
(grounded) + comparative steps (cue-grounded) on the flat left-fold — no derived-
intermediate model needed (running value is the intermediate).
Deliberately narrow: same-unit lists only. A stated comparative is ALWAYS applied
(no bare-vs-scaled self-disagreement). A product base over the same list is added
WITHOUT a comparative tail purely as a disagreement-safety candidate -> a same-unit
list that also carries a mult cue (ambiguous) REFUSES. Product-of-all/cross-unit
products stay MS-3's job (avoids the product x comparative blowups a blunt all-bases
composer produced: 0024 -> 4.3M).
Clean-case capability proven: 8 tests (list-sum, sum-then-double/triple, mixed-units
refuse, ambiguous-disagreement refuse, determinism). Honest practice result: 3/2/45
— NO new flips (extraction wall: real cases like 0024 extract non-uniform units
'36 on' so they aren't seen as same-unit lists), 2 sealed eliminations (0037/0039:
list-sum was the wrong structure -> learning signal). Coverage gated by extraction
richness + cue precision, as predicted.
Sealed; serving untouched. Full derivation surface 53/53; ruff clean; smoke 67.
Continuation: richer relational ops (per/each->multiply, more/older->add), branch/
DAG (0033), and the extraction richness (uniform-unit extraction) that unblocks this
on real cases.
GB-1 — first slice of the comprehension-guided composer (ADR-0178). Reads the
problem one clause at a time and derives each clause's LOCAL contribution; GB-2
combines them across clauses.
generate/derivation/clauses.py:
- segment_clauses(text): sentence-level orthographic split (ADR-0165; not grammar).
- clause_local_results(text) -> tuple[ClauseResult]: per clause, 0 quantities =
context (hold), 1 = leaf (its value), >=2 = bounded local search (reuses MS-3
search_chain). Refuse-preferring: ambiguous multi-quantity clause -> unresolved
hold, not guessed.
Locality is the guidance that bounds the search + steers grouping. 9 GB-1 tests
(segmentation, leaf/context/local-product, ambiguous-holds, determinism,
per-clause structure of a multi-sentence problem). Full derivation surface 86/86;
ruff clean; smoke 67. Sealed; not wired into serving (ClauseResults ready for
GB-2 sequential combination).
MS-3 composes MS-1 (Target) + MS-2 (comparative chains + completeness) + the gate.
generate/derivation/multistep.py: search_chain(problem_text, target=None).
Shape-based, NOT blind enumeration: enumerates a small principled candidate set
(product-of-all if a multiplicative cue is present; sum-of-all if an aggregation
hint is present; each optionally + comparative scalars), each using all
quantities, routed through select_self_verified (grounding ∧ cue ∧ unit ∧
completeness ∧ uniqueness). Bounded (MAX_QUANTITIES, refuse-on-overflow) +
deterministic. Target supplies the aggregation cue + question quantities; target-
UNIT matching is deferred (answer_unit=start.unit is wrong for cross-unit products
-> a unit gate would over-refuse; documented).
Honest practice measurement (sealed lane): 4 correct / 9 wrong / 37 refused
(baseline 3/0/47). +1 flip is the unambiguous whole-problem product (0021); the 9
wrongs are product-of-all eliminations on multi-step problems (caught by gold,
the learning signal). Whole-problem shapes add no coverage beyond the unambiguous
product WITHOUT cue precision: when product and sum both self-verify they disagree
-> uniqueness refuses (safe-but-low-coverage by design). The lever remains cue
precision (the ADR-0175 learning loop).
Microscope finding: 0003-class flips (48*24*0.75=864=gold) are blocked by a
DECIMAL/currency grounding gap -- '$0.75' tokenizes to 0/75 so '0.75' is not
grounded by the shared round-trip primitive. Not a search bug; deferred
extraction-richness work (won't casually change the serving round-trip primitive).
A test documents the current refusal so the fix is detectable.
wrong=0: serving untouched (sealed); ambiguity + no-licensed-cue refuse; routes
through the proven gate. 8 MS-3 tests; full derivation surface 77/77; ruff clean;
smoke 67.
MS-2 of multi-step composition. Extends the derivation model so a chain mixes
text-quantity operands and COMPARATIVE-scalar operands (twice->x2, 'N times'->xN,
half->x0.5), self-verifying the whole chain with completeness over body+question
and question-target matching.
- model.py: Step gains comparative flag.
- comparatives.py: ComparativeScalar gains number_token (the '<N> times' number,
so completeness counts the consumed body quantity); comparative_step(cs) bridges
a scalar into a Step (operand grounded by cue, not a text value token).
- verify.py: self_verifies exempts comparative operands from value-grounding
(clause 1) — they are cue-grounded (clause 2); completeness (Counter) counts a
digit comparative's number_token as consuming the body quantity. Adds target_units
to select_self_verified: a chain whose answer_unit isn't the asked unit is dropped
(question-target match; empty target_units imposes no constraint).
Proves the multi-step shapes from the gold structures: 0024 (text sum then 'three
times' scale -> 438), 0033 father-chain (digit-comparative '7 times' + fixed 'half'
+ text add -> 47). Full 0033 DAG (quantity reuse + the question's 25) deferred.
25 MS-2 tests; full derivation surface 69/69 (3a/3b/comparatives/ms1/ms2); ruff
clean; smoke 67. Not wired into serving (model ready for MS-3 target-guided search).
MS-1 of multi-step composition. Turns the question into a Target = what the
problem asks for, the search's pruning signal + stopping criterion (MS-3).
Lexeme-level only (ADR-0165): the existing question parser returns nothing on
these GSM8K questions, and 0165 forbids new question-shape grammar regex. Three
robust signals:
- quantities: numbers stated IN the question (0033's 'when she is 25') via the
body's lexeme extractor — they participate in the derivation.
- aggregation: presence of an aggregation lexeme (total/altogether/combined/sum/
'in all'/'in total') — soft hint the final step is a sum.
- units: asked units resolved by INTERSECTION with the body's known units
(precise lexeme match, e.g. 'jumping'). Superordinates (weight<->pounds) are
NOT faked — deferred to a curated superordinate-units pack; until then the unit
signal is precise-but-incomplete and the search leans on completeness.
Refuse-preferring: empty target field is not an error, just a weaker prune.
generate/derivation/target.py: Target + extract_target(question, known_units=()).

The curated, irreducible world-fact primitives multi-step composition needs

pattern (digit or word-number via WORD_NUMBERS). Lexeme-level (ADR-0165);
deterministic (text-order); supplies only the SCALAR primitive — referent
binding is the multi-step search's job (ADR-0176).
14 tests incl. refusal-preferring discipline + pack integrity (manifest checksum
matches bytes on disk). Verified: derivation suite 45/45; ruff clean; smoke 67;
packs 141. Not wired into serving (data + extractor ready for ADR-0176 MS phases).
Self-verification strengthening (microscope-driven). The Phase 3b measurement
showed self-verification was necessary-but-not-sufficient: 9/13 self-verified
attempts were wrong. Inspecting them deterministically revealed most were
correct FIRST STEPS of multi-step problems that ignored numbers stated elsewhere.
Adds clause 5 to self_verifies: a derivation must account for every quantity the
problem states (problem quantities subset of used). Refuse-preferring: unused
quantities -> not self-verified. This catches the multi-step-incomplete attempts
the grounding/cue/unit clauses cannot (their operands ARE grounded).
Practice measurement: wrongs 9 -> 2 (4 correct / 2 wrong / 44 refused). The 2
survivors (0015, 0025) are COMPLETE but wrong due to missed WORD-quantities
('twice', 'her friends') -> the microscope points the next change at extraction.
Updated the disagreement test to use two complete derivations; added an
incomplete-refusal test. 32 tests pass; smoke green; serving untouched (sealed).
ADR-0175 Phase 3b — the first live attempt generator. Runs only in the sealed
practice lane, only on cases the engine refused; every proposal is gated by the
Phase 3a self-verification gate.
generate/derivation/:
- extract.py: extract_quantities() — lexeme-level (number + unit word; ADR-0165).
- search.py: search_multiplicative() — one in-clause product candidate per
sentence with >=2 quantities + a present multiplicative cue; gated by
select_self_verified. Per-sentence scope + multi-candidate disagreement give
the uniqueness gate real teeth (two qualifying sentences -> refuse). The cue
set {each,every,for,per,times} is an explicit PROVISIONAL hypothesis the
practice loop refines, not a claimed-correct grammar.
evals/gsm8k_math/practice/v1/search_runner.py: search_augmented_scorer +
build_search_report — base scorer, then a practice-only attempt on refusals.
MEASUREMENT (the deliverable, per the breadth-of-impact test):
practice with search: correct=4 wrong=9 refused=37 (baseline 3/0/47)
- Flips +1 (0021, the clean in-clause aggregate) and its renumbered/reworded
variants (ADR-0114a perturbation guard) -> a real capability, not memorisation.
- 9 wrong attempts -> elimination records (§9), the learning signal. The naive
full-product cue model over-attempts; the eliminations are exactly the signal
that refines it.
HONEST FINDING: self-verification (grounding ∧ cue ∧ unit ∧ uniqueness) is
NECESSARY but NOT SUFFICIENT — 9/13 self-verified attempts were wrong vs gold.
The gap is cue PRECISION / which-quantities-compose (the knowledge axis), not
'can we multiply' (skill). This is why the search runs sealed: gold catches the
9, and case 0050 (canary) attempted-and-failed IN PRACTICE without touching
serving -> validates the seal.
Invariants: #1 seal (serving still 3/47/0; 0050 refuses in serving; no
generate/chat import of the lane), #3 determinism. Serving wrong=0 untouched.
Verified: 3a+3b 31/31; ruff clean; serving lane 4/4; smoke 67/67.
ADR-0175 Phase 3 splits wrong=0-first: build the gate (3a) and PROVE invariant #2
before the bounded search (3b) that could exploit gaps.
generate/derivation/:
- model.py: Quantity / Step / GroundedDerivation. A derivation is a left-fold over
text-sourced quantities; each Step carries its licensing cue (the lexeme the
search claims licenses the op).
- verify.py: self_verifies() — grounded operands ∧ grounded operation cues ∧ unit
consistency ∧ no divide-by-zero. Grounding REUSES the canonical primitives from
math_roundtrip (_tokens/_token_in/_value_grounds) so the gate cannot drift from
the round-trip contract. select_self_verified() adds the uniqueness rule:
unique self-verifying answer resolves; zero or disagreeing refuse (wrong=0).
INVARIANT #2 proven (TestInvariant2_NoSpuriousSelfVerification): the gate refuses
to self-verify a derivation that is not grounded+unit-consistent+unique even when
its value coincides with gold — the 20/5==4 class:
- invented operand not in text -> refused
- operation cue not in text -> refused (division not licensed by any present cue)
- value coincidence (20/5=4) with ungrounded op -> still refused
- add across units (pounds + reps) -> refused
- divide-by-zero -> refused
Plus uniqueness: disagreeing grounded derivations -> refuse; agreeing -> resolve.
Phase 3a is inert (nothing wires generate.derivation into serving). 3b is the
bounded search that produces derivations for this gate + measures the flip-curve
in the practice lane under perturbation.
Verified: 16/16; ruff clean; smoke 67/67; no serving import.
ADR-0175 Phase 2 — a NEW lane (evals/gsm8k_math/practice/v1/), separate from the
wrong=0-pinned serving runner which is NOT modified. Runs the 50 cases in
practice mode: scores correct/wrong/refused as practice metrics, feeds per-class
counts into the Phase 1 ledger, diagnoses every refusal (§8), emits an
elimination record per wrong.
- classify_operation: gold-derived primary op class {multiplicative,divisive,
additive} from <<a*b=c>> calc annotations (Tier-1 checkable in practice).
- diagnose_refusal (§8): skill_gap / knowledge_gap / genuine_ambiguity router.
- EliminationRecord (§9): wrong attempt gold caught -> pruning signal.
- PracticeReport: counts + per-class ledger + diagnoses + eliminations; as_dict.
- run_practice(cases, scorer=...): injectable scorer for tests; defaults to the
candidate-graph scorer (read-only — never alters serving).
Live result mirrors serving (3 correct / 0 wrong / 47 refused of 50) because the
engine still refuses rather than guesses — attempts/eliminations go live in
Phase 3. But the diagnosis is already actionable: 35 skill_gap / 12 knowledge_gap
/ 0 genuine_ambiguity — 74% of refusals are skill gaps (Phase 3's search target),
quantifying the skill-vs-knowledge split.
Invariants: #1 seal (serving still 3/47/0; no generate/chat import of the lane),
#3 determinism (report byte-identical across runs). Elimination + wrong-tolerance
paths unit-tested via injected scorer (no live wrongs yet).
Verified: Phase 1+2 53/53, serving train_sample tests 4/4 (seal), smoke 67/67,
ruff clean.
ADR-0175 Phase 1 — standalone, deterministic, zero serving change. Nothing in
the serving/eval path imports it.
core/reliability_gate/:
- floor.py: conservative_floor(s,k) — pinned one-sided Wilson lower bound over
COMMITTED trials. z=2.576, N_MIN=10; range [0,1) (never exactly 1.0); float64
rounded half-to-even to 1e-9 for cross-backend replay. Perfect record reduces
to k/(k+z²) (earned by volume).
- ledger.py: ClassTally — immutable per-class counts; reliability = commitment
precision (refusals excluded so coverage never penalizes reliability);
t2_precision over the anchor set; coverage tracked separately.
- ceilings.py: Action{PRACTICE,PROPOSE,SERVE} + Ceilings — human-set θ
(practice=0, propose=.85, serve=.99). Frozen; with_override returns a NEW
instance (no in-place self-authorization).
- gate.py: license_for() — deterministic gate, measured/required≥1 (≡ measured≥
required; required=0 ⟹ always). Pure; never mutates/emits ceilings.
34 tests, each ADR invariant exercised by a test that fails under its violation:
#3 determinism/replay (idempotent, pre-rounded, deterministic decisions),
#4 no self-authorization (frozen ceilings; gate never emits/mutates them),
#1 proxy (zero serving coupling). Plus the §4a worked examples (38 clean
commitments clear propose; one wrong in 40 drops below; serve needs ~657).
Verified: 34/34 pass; architectural invariants 40/40; smoke 67/67; ruff clean;
no serving/eval import of the package.
The recognizer/candidate-graph path is the single canonical reader.
Retires the flag-gated incremental-reader dispatch that admitted 0/50 on
train_sample and only added a dead fall-through:
- remove _try_comprehension_reader, _try_reader_for_question, _tokenize_sentence
and both dispatch blocks from generate/math_candidate_graph.py
- delete generate/comprehension/lifecycle_runtime_adapter.py (402 LOC,
used only by the question-reader dispatch)
- drop the comprehension_reader_questions config flag and the parse_and_solve
/ _score_one_candidate_graph config threading
- remove the --use-reader runner plumbing + flag-ON/OFF delta report from
the train_sample runner; refresh report.json (drops stale use_reader field
and a stale refusal-reason; verdicts unchanged at 3/47/0)
- remove the now-dead use_reader field from teaching/coverage.py
CoverageReport + the core teaching coverage CLI flag
- delete tests/test_reader_coexistence.py (flag-ON/OFF premise dissolved);
fix 3 ADR-0174 build_report calls and 2 subprocess invocations
lifecycle.py and audit.py are KEPT — they are load-bearing for the ADR-0172
math-contemplation teaching corridor (audit_problem -> teaching/math_*),
which a pre-deletion trace surfaced. The parent ADR's plan to delete
lifecycle.py was wrong; only its GSM8K scoring dispatch was inert.
Net -1,038 LOC (code + tests). Behavior-preserving:
- train_sample 3/47/0, byte-identical verdicts to pre-5a baseline
- determinism holds; smoke/packs/runtime/cognition/teaching lanes green
- contemplation corridor + lifecycle/audit tests pass
Pre-existing (NOT introduced here; reproduce on base with changes stashed):
5 out-of-curated-lane stale committed-artifact / stale-assertion failures
(test_math_evidence_e2e, test_adr_0126_runner_wiring, G3/coverage_probe
report-match, test_refusal_taxonomy_lane rebuild).
ADR-0174 Phase 3b — emit N anchors for compound-clause discrete-count
sentences sharing one subject + one verb. Architectural substrate;
score on train_sample preserved at 3/47/0 (compound cases like 0027
admit past the recognizer-injection refusal but the rest of the
problem still has downstream complexity — fractions, percent — that
needs Phase 4 + solver work).
generate/comprehension/state.py:
HYPOTHESIS_CAP raised 4 → 8. Case 0040 emits 5 anchors; cap=8
gives headroom (7-item lists) without becoming permissive.
generate/recognizer_match.py:
_try_extract_compound_discrete_count_anchors() — new extractor
emitting tuple of anchors for compound sentences. Refusal-
preferring on:
- no conjunctive separator (single-anchor path)
- multiplicative/percent/fraction markers
- head verb not in whitelist
- any tail clause without grounded (count, observed_noun) pair
- exceeding HYPOTHESIS_CAP
- unaccounted digit in tail (wrong=0 hazard defense surfaced by
2026-05-28 implementation review: bogusnoun would silently fail
to produce anchor while leaving the digit unaccounted, admitting
partial state)
Wired into _match_discrete_count_statement dispatch as fallback when
single-anchor extraction fails.
tests/test_adr_0174_phase3b_compound_clause.py:
11 acceptance tests passing — pure conjunctive lists (proper-noun
+ pronoun-subject + single-actor antecedent), refusal-preferring
discipline (mixed-verb, multiplicative-tail, non-whitelisted-head,
partial-grounding all-or-nothing), HYPOTHESIS_CAP enforcement,
multi-actor pronoun defense preserved on compound, wrong=0 +
case-0050 canary.
tests/test_adr_0174_phase1_held_hypothesis_state.py:
Updated test_hypothesis_cap_is_four → test_hypothesis_cap_is_eight
with rationale for the raise.
Phase 3b implementation lookback review (per CLAUDE.md doctrine):
- Surfaced silent-partial-admission hazard in tail extraction;
fixed with digit-accounting check before commit
- Surfaced LATENT regex-path multi-actor pronoun hazard (not
introduced by Phase 3b; documented in test docstring with
cross-reference to project-adr-0174-multi-actor-pronoun-hazard
memory for follow-up)
- case 0040 ('He now has...') remains refused — 'now' adverb between
subject and verb defeats the existing canonical regex. Adverb-
stripping is separate scope (not Phase 3b).
Acceptance:
- 258/258 ADR-0174 + math_problem_graph tests pass
- Smoke 67/67, packs 141/141
- train_sample 3/47/0 preserved (wrong=0 held)
- Case 0027 'Malcolm has 240 followers on Instagram and 500 followers
on Facebook' now admits via the compound extractor — verified by
refusal moving to the next sentence (which has 'half' fraction)
All findings from the 2026-05-28 Phase 1-3a lookback review addressed
in one commit on the Phase 3a branch:
Wrong=0 hazard defense (the load-bearing fix):
- generate/math_candidate_graph.py: Phase 3a wiring now collects the
set of distinct proper-noun subjects seen in prior context. When
more than one exists, refuses with no_antecedent_ambiguous trace
event rather than guessing the most-recent (which was gender-blind
single-binding — wrong attribution in multi-actor problems).
- Refusals from the statement loop now preserve _statement_trace via
reader_trace in CandidateGraphResult (pre-existing latent issue:
Phase 2/3 trace events were dropped on early statement refusal).
- New tests assert: ambiguous case refuses with correct trace; single-
actor case still resolves normally.
Test coverage backfills (closes the 13 untested predicate-name gaps):
- TestCheckConstraintsInitialPredicateNames — 3 tests asserting the
exact predicate name on initial.value_grounds / initial.unit_grounds
/ initial.entity_grounds failure paths.
- TestCheckConstraintsOperationPredicateNames — 3 tests asserting
operation.verb_grounds / operation.value_grounds / operation.unit_grounds
failure-predicate-name parity.
- TestCheckConstraintsComposedInitialPath — 4 tests for the RAT-1
composed_initial path which was entirely untested in Phase 2
(parity manually verified during lookback review; now automated).
ADR amendment (honest doc vs impl drift):
- docs/decisions/ADR-0174-held-hypothesis-comprehension.md: appended
'Implementation Notes' section documenting:
- reevaluate signature differs from spec text (shipped is more
composable; treat as amended)
- Phase 2 wires per-candidate, not per-token (per-token is Phase 5)
- Lookback recompute is candidate-level, not token-level
- Hypothesis.constraint_state is never populated by Phase 2
- Multi-actor pronoun hazard defense rationale
- Honest LOC accounting: Phases 1-3a net +1,500 lines (Phase 5
delivers the projected net removal)
- Test coverage backfill summary
Cosmetic:
- lookback.py:297 unreachable raise — added # type: ignore[unreachable]
with comment explaining defensive future-proofing for Phase 3b.
Acceptance verified:
- 124/124 Phase 1+2+3a + reader tests pass (was 95/95 before backfills)
- Smoke 67/67, packs 141/141
- train_sample 3/47/0 preserved (wrong=0 invariant held)
- Multi-actor hazard live-tested: parse_and_solve refuses the
Alice/Bob/She case with no_antecedent_ambiguous trace event
See CLAUDE.md §Lookback Review Discipline and memory
feedback-lookback-review-discipline for the doctrine that surfaced
all of these issues at the right time.
ADR-0174 Phase 3a — substrate for held-hypothesis lookback.
Score unchanged at 3/47/0 (this PR is correctly-engineered
infrastructure; eval impact gated on ADR-0163.x recognizer expansion
documented in the follow-up brief).
Adds generate/comprehension/lookback.py:
- VALID_REFINEMENT_KINDS, VALID_UNRESOLVED_SLOTS — closed sets
contracted with reader_trace consumer
- PronounResolution refinement dataclass (pronoun + resolved_to +
evidence_source, all validated)
- Refinement Union (Phase 3b will widen with CompoundClauseExpansion)
- ReevaluateResult dataclass with admit/eliminate consistency
- reevaluate(hypothesis, refinement) operator — applies refinement,
re-runs check_constraints, returns refined Hypothesis or None.
- _rebuild_candidate_with_resolved_actor — rebuilds
CandidateOperation / CandidateInitial replacing the semantic actor
field (op.actor / initial.entity) while preserving matched_actor_token
/ matched_entity_token as the pronoun (so grounding still passes
against the held statement's source span).
Modifies generate/recognizer_match.py:
- _try_extract_discrete_count_anchor: pronoun-subject statements now
emit anchors with subject_role=<pronoun> + requires_pronoun_resolution
marker, rather than refusing at the _REFUSED_SUBJECT_TOKENS check.
The other narrowness layers (clause split, verb whitelist) still
refuse; only the pronoun layer changes.
Modifies generate/math_candidate_graph.py:
- After inject_from_match, when any parsed_anchor carries
requires_pronoun_resolution, the candidates are held as Hypothesis
objects with unresolved=('actor_pronoun',). The lookback path then
resolves via the existing _discourse_prior_subjects map and runs
PronounResolution refinements through reevaluate. Resolved
hypotheses flow into per_sentence_choices as if the regex parser
had produced them; unresolved hypotheses drop cleanly (refusal-
preferring). Emits 'lookback' JSON trace events with
outcome ∈ {admitted, eliminated, no_antecedent}.
Tests:
- tests/test_adr_0174_phase3_lookback.py — 17 acceptance tests
covering operator semantics on Operation/Initial, dataclass
invariants, closed-set constants, end-to-end wiring on synthetic
problems, and wrong=0 preservation on train_sample.
Phase 3.1 follow-up brief:
- docs/handoff/PHASE-3.1-FOLLOWUP-RECOGNIZER-EXPANSION.md documents
the empirical finding that the train_sample bottleneck is
verb-coverage (recognizer scope, ADR-0163.x) not lookback
(ADR-0174 scope). 11 verbs identified for HITL contemplation pass.
Recommends sequencing: Phase 3a now (substrate), ADR-0163.x verb
expansion next, Phase 3b after coverage matures.
Acceptance verified:
- 17/17 Phase 3a tests pass
- 95/95 existing tests pass (Phase 1 + Phase 2 + brief_11 + reader_phase2)
- Smoke 67/67, packs 141/141, lanes 8/8
- wrong=0 preserved, score unchanged 3/47/0 (intentional per brief)
Stacks on Phase 2 (PR #420). Rebases onto main after #416 + #420 land.
ADR-0174 Phase 2 — hoist _initial_admissible / roundtrip_admissible into
hypothesis-based constraint checks with structured elimination tracing.
Admission semantics are byte-equivalent to today; the change is structural.
Adds generate/comprehension/constraint_propagation.py:
- VALID_PREDICATE_NAMES: closed set of 17 sub-check names spanning
initial / composed_initial / operation admissibility predicates.
Adding new names requires an ADR amendment (structural contract with
reader_trace consumer).
- ConstraintResult dataclass: admitted bool + predicates_run trace +
elimination_reason. Validates admitted-vs-reason consistency.
- Elimination dataclass: confidence_rank + predicate + reason for one
hypothesis being eliminated. Serialisable as a reader_trace event.
- hypothesis_from_initial / hypothesis_from_operation: adapters wrapping
CandidateInitial / CandidateOperation as Phase-1 Hypothesis objects
with caller-supplied confidence_rank.
- _check_initial / _check_composed_initial / _check_operation:
decomposed sub-check implementations of the existing admissibility
predicates with first-failure short-circuit (matches current
semantics). Each sub-check populates predicates_run with (name, ok|
fail|skip) so the consumer sees exactly which predicate decided.
- check_constraints: dispatches on candidate type.
- eliminate_violating: bulk filter; returns (survivors, eliminations);
survivors are re-densified to satisfy ProblemReadingState's
open_hypotheses post_init invariant (dense-from-0 ranks);
eliminations carry the original confidence_rank for trace fidelity.
Wires into generate/math_candidate_graph.py at the recognizer
injection site (line 825+): replaces inline _initial_admissible /
roundtrip_admissible dispatch with eliminate_violating. Elimination
events become JSON entries in reader_trace with layer=
'constraint_propagation', phase=2, predicate, reason, sentence_index.
Phase 2 acceptance verified:
- 24/24 ADR-0174 Phase 2 tests pass (emission, parity with existing
predicates on 9 admit/reject cases, redensification, dataclass
invariants, integration).
- 71/71 existing reader + Phase 1 tests still pass.
- Smoke 67/67, packs 141/141, lanes 8/8.
- train_sample/v1 byte-identical across two runs with use_reader=True.
- Score preserved: correct=3 refused=47 wrong=0 — semantics identical
because the decomposed sub-checks short-circuit on the same predicates
the inline checks would have caught.
Trace-event behavior: today's injectors are conservative enough that
zero eliminations occur on train_sample/v1 (no false positives, no
mid-pipeline failures). The wiring is exercised by
test_phase2_event_shape_when_synthesized which proves the trace shape
on a synthetic CandidateInitial that fails initial.unit_grounds. When
Phase 3 begins emitting partial hypotheses from apply_word, the
elimination path will fire on real candidates and the trace will
populate.
Stacks on Phase 1 (feat/adr-0174-phase1-held-hypothesis-state, PR
#416). Merges cleanly into main after PR #416 lands.
MathProblemGraph.__post_init__ now raises MathGraphError when two
InitialPossession entries share the same (entity, unit) key but
declare different quantity values.
Pre-fix behavior surfaced by 2026-05-28 ADR-0174 Phase 3 post-merge
diagnostic: math_solver.solve() line 207 used last-write-wins dict
assignment when consolidating initial state. Two contradictory
inputs would silently overwrite without trace:
'Sam has 5 marbles. Sam has 3 marbles. How many marbles does Sam have?'
→ returned 3.0 (wrong=0 violation: definite answer from
contradictory input)
Post-fix: same input refuses with 'no branch produced a solvable
graph' — refusal-preferring discipline as wrong=0 doctrine requires.
Identical duplicates (same value) are admitted as redundant (no
contradiction). Different units for same actor admitted. Different
actors for same unit admitted. Single-value cases (the dominant
real-world pattern) unchanged.
This is an extraction-layer hazard discovered while investigating
Phase 3b scope: Phase 3b compound-clause held hypotheses would
emit multiple CandidateInitial entries per sentence, exercising
exactly this consolidation path. Fixing the silent overwrite NOW
ensures Phase 3b admission doesn't silently produce wrong answers.
Acceptance:
- 4 new tests in TestContradictoryInitialPossessionsRefuse
- 165/165 test_math_problem_graph tests pass (was 161/161)
- Smoke 67/67, packs 141/141 unchanged
- train_sample 3/47/0 unchanged (no real case exercised the
overwrite — but the hazard was latent)

ADR-0174 Phase 1 — substrate only, no admission behavior change.
Adds to generate/comprehension/state.py:
- HYPOTHESIS_CAP (=4, structural assertion per ADR-0174 §Constraints)
- VALID_HYPOTHESIS_CONFIDENCE_RANKS (closed set, no probabilistic ranking)
- Hypothesis dataclass (frozen, slots) — candidate, category_assignments,
constraint_state, confidence_rank, unresolved. The 'candidate' field is
typed as object to avoid circular import on math_roundtrip /
math_candidate_graph candidate types; Phase 2 will pin canonical_bytes
contract over real candidates.
- UnknownHeld dataclass — token, position, narrowed_categories (frozenset).
Substrate for Phase 3 'hold instead of refuse' on unknown words; Phase 1
introduces only the type.
- ProblemReadingState.open_hypotheses + unknown_held fields, both default
to () (empty tuple). Defaults preserve today's single-committed behavior
exactly. Confidence-rank uniqueness + density-from-0 enforced at
__post_init__ as structural invariants.
- Canonical-bytes serializer extended to handle frozenset (sorted list).
Phase 1 acceptance verified:
- 29/29 ADR-0174 Phase 1 tests pass (construction, validation, cap
enforcement, canonical-bytes determinism, frozenset stability).
- 42/42 existing reader tests pass (test_brief_11_audit +
test_reader_phase2) — default-empty fields preserve byte-identity.
- Smoke 67/67, packs 141/141.
- train_sample/v1 byte-identical across two runs with use_reader=True.
- wrong=0 invariant held: 3/47/0 unchanged.
No apply_word body changes. The 'thread the hypothesis set' requirement
at Phase 1 is satisfied by field defaults that propagate through every
ProblemReadingState construction site in lifecycle.py without code edits.
Phase 2 (continuous constraint propagation) and Phase 3 (lookback
re-evaluation) will populate these fields with real hypothesis data and
wire the EMIT / ELIMINATE / HOLD operators.
_unit_grounds() previously refused multi-word units like 'Pokemon cards'
even when both component words appeared as tokens in the source span.
The function checked unit_token against the haystack as a single key,
but the tokenizer splits source into per-word tokens — 'Pokemon cards'
was never going to match.
Fix is conjunctive by design: every component word must appear in the
haystack. A missing component refuses, preserving wrong=0.
Truth-test: case 0023 (Nicole/Pokemon cards) previously refused with
'recognizer matched but produced no injection' on its first sentence.
After this fix, sentence 1 passes injection cleanly; the case now
refuses on sentence 2 (Cindy/Rex compositional clause) — a more
honest refusal reason that reflects the actual remaining gap.
Score unchanged at 3/47/0 (no overall lift; correctness win).
smoke 67/67, packs 141/141, lanes 8/8 all green.
Both INV-02/INV-21/INV-24 scan functions walked into .claude/worktrees/
and found vault recall/write callsites in the stale
step-3-submission-invariants checkout, producing 3 false failures.
Fix: add '.claude' to the os.walk exclusion set (INV-02) and to
EXCLUDED_DIRS (INV-21/INV-24). Defensive against any future worktree
that agents create under .claude/worktrees/.
Also pruned 58 stale worktree git-dir entries via git worktree prune
and removed the step-3-submission-invariants worktree directory.
Smoke suite: 67/67 passed.
C1: delete generate/math_versor_arithmetic.py and its 3 tests (ADR-0139
add-only arithmetic spike; no runtime consumers, no pipeline wiring,
follow-on lift paused per module docstring).
C3: gitignore engine_state runtime artifacts (manifest.json,
recognizers.jsonl, discovery_candidates.jsonl). Module code
(engine_state/__init__.py) remains tracked; generated checkpoint
files should not be.
C5: document reader zero-delta root cause in train_sample/v1/README.md.
Both Phase 2 (whole-problem) and Phase 1 (question-only) reader paths are
called but inert because all 47 refusals are statement-level NO_INJECTOR
gaps, not question-sentence gaps. Reader unblocks when injector coverage
expands (C2 work). report.json use_reader flag corrected to reflect last run.
C6: add deprecation header to generate/math_parser.py pointing at
generate.math_candidate_graph.parse_and_solve as the live path.
C2/C4 briefs: docs/handoff/CLEANUP-C2-run-lane-migration.md and
docs/handoff/CLEANUP-C4-compositions-compile.md added as operator
dispatch docs for the medium-scope wiring tasks.
Three review fixes:
1. Security: validate lane/split/version against ^[a-z0-9_]+$ before
building the runner module name. The runner_args list is passed to
subprocess.run without shell=True (no shell injection possible),
but defense-in-depth blocks arbitrary token characters from
reaching Python's -m module loader. Bad input now errors at the
CLI boundary with a clear message.
2. Bug-risk: _classify_refusal docstring referenced a
no_admissible_candidate bucket that the implementation never
emitted. Aligned docstring with actual buckets
(no_admissible_question / no_admissible_statement). Also made all
matching consistently case-insensitive (was mixed — some checks
used raw reason, one used .lower()).
3. Bug-risk: fetch_committed_baseline wrote to
.git/coverage_baseline_tmp.json. Replaced with tempfile.mkstemp in
the system temp dir — avoids (a) failures in non-git worktrees
where .git is a file pointer, (b) concurrent-access collisions
between simultaneous operators.
Tests (+3 new):
- test_classify_refusal_is_case_insensitive
- test_classify_docstring_matches_implementation_buckets
- test_fetch_committed_baseline_uses_system_temp
All 16 coverage tests green. Verified the validation:
core teaching coverage --lane 'evil; rm -rf /'
→ ERROR: lane='evil; rm -rf /' must match ^[a-z0-9_]+$
Brief D from PR #407. Closes the "flying blind on per-shape coverage"
gap identified in RAT-1's audit (finding 6).
After this PR, every operator can run a single command to see exactly
which refusal modes their work moved (or didn't), without re-eyeballing
report.json by hand.
Modules
-------
- teaching/coverage.py — pure aggregator:
- _classify_refusal — maps each per-case refusal reason to a
stable bucket (recognizer_empty_injection(<ShapeCategory>),
no_admissible_question, no_admissible_statement,
unexpected_question_count, other)
- build_coverage_report — reads a lane's report.json + emits a
CoverageReport with counts, refusal_taxonomy (sorted by count
desc), case_0050_verdict, optional delta vs baseline
- fetch_committed_baseline — uses `git show HEAD:<relpath>` to
pull the baseline report.json for delta computation
- core/cli.py:
- cmd_teaching_coverage — formats the report for terminal output
- core teaching coverage [--lane gsm8k_math] [--split train_sample]

Suite results
-------------
core test --suite teaching -q → 106 passed (93 → +13)
core test --suite runtime -q → 20 passed
core test --suite packs -q → 127 passed
core eval gsm8k_math --split public → 150/150, wrong=0
Note on Brief E (lexical auto-compile): the audit was WRONG. The
lexicon loader (generate/comprehension/lexicon.py::load_lexicon)
reads from the per-category source files directly; the compiled
lexicon.jsonl is only a manifest-checksum pin, not the source of
truth at runtime. apply_lexical_claim() writes a new entry → next
turn the loader sees it. Brief E is a non-issue; closing without a
code PR.
Verified by direct test: stage a clone of the math pack, write a
synthetic lemma to drain_token.jsonl, clear the lexicon cache, load
again → new entry present. So 3 of the 5 audit gaps closed (A, D,
E-as-correction); B and C remain as the next operator dispatch
targets.
Independent of PR #406 (RAT-1) and PR #408 (WAVE-A). Based on main.
Addresses 5 of 47 train_sample "recognizer matched but produced no
injection" refusals (the largest single failure-mode bucket
identified in RAT-1's audit).
Modules
-------
- generate/recognizer_match.py:
- _MULT_AGG_EACH_WEIGHING_RE — regex for "<Subject> <bake-verb>
<M> <outer-noun>, each <weigh-verb>ing <N> <unit>" pattern
- _try_extract_each_weighing_anchor — extracts M, N, subject,
inner unit; emits pre-composed CandidateInitial(value=M*N) with
composition_evidence so RAT-1's _composed_initial_admissible
gate verifies INPUT tokens ground (preserves wrong=0)
- _match_multiplicative_aggregation dispatches to the value
extractor when spec carries extract_values=True; specs without
that flag get the existing detection-only return path
(byte-identical legacy behavior)
- generate/recognizer_anchor_inject.py:
- inject_multiplicative_aggregation — new per-category injector;
narrow by anchor.kind so ME-3/ME-4 additive/subtractive anchors
(which share the same matcher entry point) continue to flow
through composition_registry consult instead of WAVE-A's direct
path
- registered in _INJECTORS dict (2nd entry after DCS)
- core/cli.py:
- seed-recognizer CLI gains --extract-values flag to opt the
canonical_pattern into the value-extracting matcher path
Seeded artifacts
----------------
- proposals.jsonl: rat1-seed-4dc30608fb783bc7 — multiplicative_
aggregation recognizer with anchor_kind=multiplicative_aggregate,
extract_values=True, observed_units covering ounces/strawberries/
questions/etc.
Live result on train_sample
---------------------------
- wrong == 0 preserved (3/47/0 baseline)
- Case 0050 hazard pin held
- public 150/150 preserved
- packs suite: 127 → 131 (+4 new WAVE-A tests, all green)
- teaching suite 93 unchanged
- runtime suite 20 unchanged
End-to-end synthetic solve (FIRST WAVE-A admission):
"Lilibeth fills 6 baskets where each basket holds 50 strawberries.
How many strawberries does Lilibeth have?" → answer=300
Cases that moved (statement now admits; refusal shifted downstream):
- Case 0025 (Lilibeth): statement admits via WAVE-A; refusal moved
to question parser ("If three of Lilibeth's friends pick the same
amount, how many strawberries do Lilibeth and her friends pick in
all?")
- Case 0047 (John bakes 12 macaroons): statement 1 admits; refusal
moved to statement 2
Eval correct count unchanged because the QUESTION parser (and
multi-statement cross-sentence reasoning) is the next bottleneck.
RAT-1's audit identified that gap; WAVE-A closes the injector half.
The remaining 3 multiplicative_aggregation refusals (0006, 0013,
0045) have different shape patterns the WAVE-A regex does not yet
cover; they're follow-up matcher extensions in the same architecture.
Tests
-----
- tests/test_wave_a_multiplicative_aggregation_injector.py (10
tests): each-weighing + each-basket-holds admission shapes,
detection-only path preserved when extract_values absent,
unobserved unit / pronoun / zero count refusals, end-to-end
inject_from_match dispatch, the Lilibeth canary solve,
wrong=0 preserved, case 0050 hazard pin
Stacks on PR #406 (RAT-1).
Adds surface_pattern, composition_category, and polarity to the
proposed_change_payload for composition_reclassification proposals so
operators can call apply_composition_claim() without field synthesis.
Dispatch by missing_operator:
- quantity_extraction → multiplicative_composition + bound(count) × bound(unit_cost)
- multi_quantity_composition → additive_composition + bound(qty_a) + bound(qty_b)
All other change kinds (matcher_extension, injector_sub_shape,
frame_reclassification) keep the existing evidence-aggregation payload.
Legacy fields (evidence_count, group_key, modal_sub_type) preserved.
Adds tests/test_contemplation_ratifiable_payload.py with 11 tests
including a round-trip from decompose_audit → apply_composition_claim.
The user's question — "shouldn't we be running it multiple times so
it can learn? or is that part broken?" — exposed that the math
teaching loop's `ratify → admit` closure had been structurally
broken at the connector between operator ratification and runtime
visibility. The handlers wrote source files (compositions/, frames/)
that the runtime loader never read because no compile step
regenerated the runtime artifacts.
This PR fixes the gap end-to-end AND fires the first live composition
admission on the canonical pack.
Modules
-------
- language_packs/compile_pack.py — unified compile step that
regenerates frames.jsonl + compositions.jsonl + updates
manifest.{frame,composition}_checksum atomically. Idempotent.
- teaching/math_composition_ratification.py — apply_composition_claim
now calls compile_pack at end of successful ratification. Closes
the source-file→runtime-artifact gap.
- teaching/math_frame_ratification.py — same auto-compile wire for
apply_frame_claim.
- generate/math_candidate_parser.py — CandidateInitial gains optional
composition_evidence Mapping field. When populated, signals the
candidate was produced by a registry-gated composition (ADR-0169);
the value/unit/entity are DERIVED arithmetic over grounded inputs.
- generate/math_candidate_graph.py — new _composed_initial_admissible
predicate that branches on composition_evidence. Wrong=0 preserved
by requiring each composition INPUT token (count, amount) to ground
in source_span literally; the derived value is admitted because the
arithmetic over grounded inputs is deterministic.
- generate/math_candidate_graph.py — discourse-level prior_subject
tracking: capture proper-noun subjects from ALL statement sentences
(including ADR-0136.S.0 context-filler sentences that get filtered
out before the candidate loop). Without this, "John adopts a dog"
(no numbers) is dropped and the cross-sentence subject resolver for
case 0019 sees prior_subject=None.
- generate/recognizer_match.py — all four composition matchers
(ME-1 currency-per-unit same-sentence, ME-2 cross-sentence, ME-3
additive, ME-4 subtractive) now populate composition_evidence in
CandidateInitial. Also added standalone " each " / " apiece " to
_PER_UNIT_TOKENS so currency_amount detection-only matcher refuses
per-item costs instead of swallowing them.
CLIs
----
- core teaching compile-pack — explicit operator surface for
regenerating runtime artifacts. JSON output for CI integration.
- core teaching seed-recognizer — operator surface for seeding a
RatifiedRecognizer entry in the proposal log for a given
(shape_category, anchor_kind). Writes created + transition(accepted)
events directly via ProposalLog._append.
Seeded artifacts (the actual loop closure)
------------------------------------------
- proposals.jsonl: new rat1-seed-48dd2673d6ad673d RatifiedRecognizer
entry for shape_category=rate_with_currency,
anchor_kind=currency_per_unit_composition.
- compositions/multiplicative_composition.jsonl: ratified
"bound(count) × bound(unit_cost)" affirms entry sourced from
case 0019 evidence.
- compositions.jsonl + manifest.composition_checksum: compiled
runtime artifact + manifest pin (RAT-1 auto-compile).
Live result on train_sample
---------------------------
- wrong == 0 preserved (3 correct / 47 refused / 0 wrong)
- Case 0050 hazard pin holds (refused)
- public split 150/150 preserved
- Case 0019 sentence 1 ("requires 3 vet appointments, which cost
$400 each") NOW ADMITS via composition. Previously refused with
"recognizer matched but produced no injection". The refusal moved
downstream to sentence 2 (a different currency_amount detection
bottleneck that is its own follow-up).
This is the first time a composition ratification on the canonical
pack actually reaches the runtime. The flywheel turned one
revolution.
Tests
-----
- tests/test_rat1_end_to_end_admission.py — 4 new live tests:
composition statement admits on isolated synthetic problem, case
0019 cross-sentence admission, wrong=0 preserved on train_sample,
case 0050 hazard pin.
- tests/test_consumption_empty_registry_no_op.py — refactored to use
isolated synthetic packs (the canonical pack may now carry ratified
entries).
- tests/test_math_{frame,composition}_ratification.py — updated
"manifest checksum unchanged" tests to "lexicon checksum
preserved" semantics: RAT-1 auto-compile may add the new optional
checksum fields; pre-existing lexicon checksum stays untouched.
Suite results: teaching 93, packs 131 (+4), runtime 20. All green.
Final PR of the matcher-extension wave. Ships:
1. tests/test_me5_all_categories_integration.py — 4 new tests:

- test_partial_pack_only_admits_present_categories: refusal-
preferring when only one category is ratified
- test_all_safe_categories_have_extension_admission: pins that
SAFE_COMPOSITION_CATEGORIES is exactly the three covered
categories (breaks if future ADR widens without matcher)
- test_falsifies_uniformly_suppresses_across_categories:
polarity discipline holds across all three matchers
2. docs/handoff/ME1-ME5-MILESTONE.md — wave milestone doc:

- All matcher detection paths byte-identical
- engine_state/* never committed
- SAFE_COMPOSITION_CATEGORIES enforced at write AND load

Extends _match_multiplicative_aggregation with a new branch keyed on
anchor_kind="additive_quantity_composition". When a statement carries
"<Subject> <verb> <N> <unit> and <M> <unit>" (same unit) shape, emits
a pre-composed CandidateInitial(N+M, unit) and publishes
composition_shape="bound(qty_a) + bound(qty_b)".
Subject binding under Option A (refuse on pronoun / determiner / no
proper-noun head). Cross-sentence subject support (mirroring ME-2)
is deferred — not needed for the v1 ME-3 canaries.
Verb whitelist: lost / gained / earned / saved / made / paid / spent /
bought / sold / added / removed / received. Verbs that route through
CandidateInitial.matched_anchor's existing post-init whitelist;
unmapped verbs fall back to "had".
Unit normalization: rstrip 's' for plural matching (pounds vs pound).
Cross-unit composition refused — no conversion table in v1.

Live train_sample admission requires the same operator workflow as
ME-2: a RatifiedRecognizer for the new anchor_kind + composition_registry
entry for "bound(qty_a) + bound(qty_b)" under additive_composition.
Without those, the wiring is correctly positioned but dormant — no
regression in the live eval.

Modules

- _CROSS_SENTENCE_COMPOSITION_RE — regex for "requires N noun, which
cost(s) $X each" (no subject prefix)
- try_extract_cross_sentence_composition_anchor(statement, spec,
prior_subject) — refuses on None / empty / pronoun prior_subject;
publishes the same composition_shape + composed_initial payload as

- extract_proper_noun_subject(statement) — head proper-noun extractor
used by callers to track running prior_subject; rejects determiners,
sentence-initial connectors (After/How/Every/...), and pronouns
- match() dispatcher gains keyword-only prior_subject parameter;
when a per-category matcher returns None for a RATE_WITH_CURRENCY
recognizer with currency_per_unit_composition anchor_kind AND
prior_subject is supplied, the cross-sentence helper is tried as
a fallback

Scope boundary
--------------
The wiring is load-bearing AND tested end-to-end via synthetic
recognizer registry (test_case_0019_admits_with_prior_subject_john
proves the full chain match → inject → admit).
For the LIVE train_sample case 0019 admission, two ratifications must
also be seeded (operator workflow outside this PR's code scope):
1. A RatifiedRecognizer in the proposal log with shape_category=
RATE_WITH_CURRENCY and canonical_pattern carrying
anchor_kind="currency_per_unit_composition"
2. A composition_registry entry for "bound(count) × bound(unit_cost)"
under multiplicative_composition with polarity=affirms
With both ratifications in place, case 0019 admits via the wiring
this PR ships. Without them, the live train_sample run remains at
the 3/47 baseline (preserved; no regression).
Anti-regression invariants preserved
------------------------------------
- wrong == 0 on gsm8k_math public
- Case 0050 hazard pin holds (no _COMPOSITION_SUBJECT_BUY_RE or
_CROSS_SENTENCE_COMPOSITION_RE match on case 0050's sentences)

Modules

- language_packs/compile_compositions.py — same shape for
compositions/*.jsonl → compositions.jsonl
- generate/comprehension/frame_registry.py — load_frame_registry()
mirroring load_lexicon: cache by (path, mtime, sha256), manifest
checksum verification (optional frame_checksum field), polarity
validation, conflict detection, empty-registry no-op
- generate/comprehension/composition_registry.py — same shape PLUS:
* SAFE_COMPOSITION_CATEGORIES enforced at LOAD (defense in depth;
raises WrongCompositionCategory on any unsafe category — protects
against pack edits that bypass the handler)
* polarity "falsifies" exposed via is_falsified() (consumer must
suppress; not silently treated as affirms)
- language_packs/compiler.py — manifest verification extended for
frame_checksum + composition_checksum, mirroring the proven
glosses_checksum pattern (optional fields; backward-compatible)
- generate/recognizer_anchor_inject.py — inject_from_match consults
composition_registry when the per-category injector returns empty
AND the matcher publishes ``composition_shape`` in parsed_anchors.
Registry is a gate (admissibility) not an arithmetic primitive
(ADR-0169 §"Mutation boundary").

Scope Boundary (honest finding)
-------------------------------
Rows #1 and #3 (case 0019 admission) require a matcher extension that
publishes ``composition_shape`` + a pre-composed CandidateInitial in
parsed_anchors. The existing currency_amount / multiplicative_aggregation
matchers in generate/recognizer_match.py are detection-only (return
empty parsed_anchors). This PR ships the consumption infrastructure
correctly but the runtime path remains dormant until a follow-up PR
extends the matcher. The dispatch pack's truth test #1/#3 cannot fire
without that extension.
The wiring is positioned correctly: inject_from_match → consult
composition_registry → admit on affirms-with-payload, suppress on
falsifies, refuse on absence. A synthetic recognizer match with
populated composition_shape + composed_initial DOES admit through the
new path (covered by 6 tests in test_composition_consult_in_injector.py).
A follow-up brief naming the matcher-extension work is the
recommended next step.
Anti-regression invariants verified

Bundles three post-Tier-1 follow-ups into one PR (no scope change, no
new ADR — implementation tightening on the already-shipped corridor).
(1) Standalone JSONL self-containment
teaching/math_contemplation_proposal.py
+ to_jsonl_record() — emits proposal_id + full evidence_pointers
(nested dicts including audit_row) + full reasoning_trace.steps
+ from_jsonl_record() — inverse; goes through build_proposal()
so all invariants are re-validated; raises on proposal_id mismatch
canonical_bytes() UNCHANGED (still the content-hash function;
trace_id/proposal_id stability preserved)
core/cli.py W3 lane now writes to_jsonl_record() output instead of
canonical_bytes() — same compact-JSON encoding (sort_keys=True,
ensure_ascii=False, separators=(",", ":"))
workbench/readers.py loads via self-contained record fields directly;
decompose_audit() re-run removed. read_math_proposal() now reads
reasoning_trace.steps and evidence_pointers from the JSONL record.
(2) Widened change_kind heuristic dispatch
teaching/math_contemplation.py
+ _CHANGE_KIND_BY_PAIR table on (refusal_reason, missing_operator):
(unexpected_category, pre_frame_filler_sentence) → matcher_extension
(unexpected_category, multi_subject_sentence) → frame_reclassification
(unexpected_category, fraction_percentage_literal) → matcher_extension
(unexpected_category, descriptive_frame_question) → frame_reclassification
(unresolved_pronoun, pronoun_resolution) → matcher_extension
Single-key fallback (lexicon_entry/narrowness_violation/
frame_unrecognized) retained for completeness.
hypothesis-step justification text updated to reflect new table.
Result on audit_brief_11.json:
3 matcher_extension (was 0)
2 frame_reclassification (was 0)
3 injector_sub_shape (was 8)
0 vocabulary_addition (no unknown_word group ≥2 in train sample)
(3) shape_category structural gap
MathReaderRefusalEvidence does not carry shape_category, so the
proposal cannot derive it. All proposals continue to emit
ShapeCategory.UNCATEGORIZED with a structural-gap comment. No
invented values — handler dispatch decision (per ADR-0167-FOLLOWUPS
§1) drives ratification routing today, not shape_category.
Tests
+ W1: 5 new tests (to_jsonl_record self-containment, round-trip,
byte stability, proposal_id mismatch rejection, canonical_bytes
unchanged invariant)
+ W2: 3 new pair-dispatch tests + real-audit change_kind distribution
test + shape_category-uncategorized test
+ W3: 2 new tests (records are self-contained, round-trip via
from_jsonl_record); existing byte-comparison test updated to use
proposal_id ordering instead of canonical_bytes
+ W4: existing 6 tests updated to build JSONL via to_jsonl_record;
+ 1 new decoupling test that drops teaching.math_contemplation from
sys.modules and verifies the workbench still loads + serves detail
Verification
- core eval math-contemplation produces the expected 3/2/3 distribution
- core test --suite teaching -q → 33 passed
- core test --suite runtime -q → 20 passed
- All 57 ADR-0172 W1-W4 tests pass (49 existing + 8 new)
Determinism / invariants preserved
- canonical_bytes() byte-stable (test pins this)
- to_jsonl_record() byte-stable via sort_keys=True + no floats
- wrong=0 invariant: proposals stay evidence-only; no auto-apply
- ChangeKind Literal unchanged (4 values; no new ones invented)
Wires teaching/math_proposals/proposals.jsonl into the CORE Workbench
API (ADR-0160) alongside the existing cognition proposal queue:
workbench/schemas.py
- MathReasoningStep, MathProposalSummary, MathProposalDetail,
MathRatifyResult schemas
workbench/readers.py
- MATH_PROPOSALS_JSONL + _DEFAULT_MATH_AUDIT_PATH constants
- teaching/math_proposals added to ALLOWED_ARTIFACT_ROOTS
- _HANDLER_DISPATCH table (vocabulary_addition→LexicalClaim; all
others not yet implemented)
- list_math_proposals(), read_math_proposal(), ratify_math_proposal()
- read_math_proposal() re-runs decompose_audit() to recover full
4-step reasoning trace (canonical_bytes only carries trace_id)
- ratify_math_proposal() raises NotImplementedError with clear
"handler not yet implemented: {change_kind}" for unhandled kinds
workbench/api.py
- GET /math-proposals, GET /math-proposals/{id}
- POST /math-proposals/{id}/ratify → _math_ratify()
(vocabulary_addition→200/routed; unhandled→501 with loud message)
tests/test_adr_0172_w4_workbench_e2e.py — 6 tests:
1. loads from JSONL
2. renders domain:math badge (distinct from cognition /proposals)
3. ratify-vocabulary_addition routes to LexicalClaim (200)
4. ratify-matcher_extension fails loudly (501 "handler not yet
implemented")
5. all 4 trace steps visible in detail response
6. no cross-contamination between math and cognition queues
teaching + runtime suites green (28 + 20 passed).
Brief-gap note: canonical_bytes() excludes proposal_id and serialises
evidence pointers as hashes only. D1 loader derives proposal_id via
sha256(line_bytes) and re-runs decompose_audit() to recover full trace
for read_math_proposal(). This works but means the JSONL cannot be
loaded without the original audit file. If a future wave needs
standalone JSONL loading, C1 should emit a richer format.
Add decompose_audit(audit_path) to teaching/math_contemplation.py.
Groups audit_brief_11.json refusal rows by
(refusal_reason, missing_operator), emits one
MathReaderRefusalShapeProposal per group of >=2 rows, each carrying a
4-step ReasoningTrace (observation -> grouping -> hypothesis ->
conclusion).
Determinism:
- Group iteration sorted by (refusal_reason, missing_operator).
- Evidence per group sorted by case_id.
- Output tuple sorted by proposal_id.
- 10x rerun -> byte-identical proposals + trace_ids.
Pure read-only: audit file is not mutated, no proposals written to
disk, no chat/field/generate/algebra imports.
Tests (tests/test_adr_0172_w2_decomposer.py): real-audit emission,
determinism (10x), evidence floor, change-kind dispatch over all four
heuristic branches, four-step trace, case_id sort, proposal_id sort,
empty input -> empty tuple, unmapped operator skip, missing file ->
FileNotFoundError, no-mutation contract.
Added to core test --suite teaching.
New module `teaching/math_contemplation_proposal.py` defines the
`MathReaderRefusalShapeProposal` dataclass — the math-domain analog of
`TeachingChainProposal` for the Tier-1 contemplation corridor.
- `build_proposal` enforces all seven invariants: math domain, ShapeCategory
enum membership, ≥2 evidence pointers, valid ChangeKind Literal, JSON-
serializable payload, ≥40-char wrong_zero_assertion, and non-None
reasoning_trace with a non-empty trace_id.
- `canonical_bytes` / `compute_proposal_id` produce stable sha256-based IDs;
evidence reduced to evidence_hash, trace to trace_id for stability.
- `ReasoningTrace` imported under TYPE_CHECKING only (W0/A1 not yet merged);
duck-typed at runtime via trace_id attribute.
- 16 tests cover all eight brief obligations plus freeze and sensitivity checks.
- `core test --suite teaching -q` green (17 passed).
Schema-only module defining ReasoningStep / ReasoningTrace with
byte-identical canonical serialization and sha256 trace_id derivation.
Replay-equivalence is enforced by:
- sorted-key JSON, no whitespace, ensure_ascii=False, allow_nan=False
- recursive rejection of float values in payloads (replay hazard)
- step_index monotonicity from 0
- empty trace rejected
- Literal-checked step_kind across all eight Tier 1+2 kinds
No runtime hook. No import from chat/field/generate/algebra.
Downstream (W1 ShapeProposal, W2 decomposer) consume this schema.
Tests: 12 new, full teaching suite green (17 passed).
Second implementation PR of the ADR-0170 wave. Extends the DCS injector
to emit ``CandidateOperation(kind='add')`` for acquisition verbs
alongside the existing ``CandidateInitial`` emission for possession
verbs. Proves the W1 type-widening with real emission of both union
members.
## What changes
### `generate/recognizer_match.py`
- New `_ACQUISITION_VERBS` frozenset (12 verbs: collect/get/receive/buy
inflections). Each member is a subset of `ADD_VERBS` so the downstream
CandidateOperation post-init whitelist accepts the matched_verb token.
- Extractor now accepts either possession OR acquisition verbs and
records `anchor_kind` (`"possession"` | `"acquisition"`) plus
`verb_token` in the parsed anchor schema.
### `generate/recognizer_anchor_inject.py`
- `inject_discrete_count_statement` dispatches on `anchor_kind`:
- `"possession"` → `CandidateInitial` (existing behavior unchanged)
- `"acquisition"` → `CandidateOperation(add)` (new)
- New helper `_build_operation_from_discrete_count_acquisition`
constructs the operation. Operand uses `_resolve_count_value`;
matched_verb uses `_locate_token` for round-trip ground check.
- Return type uses `InjectorEmission` from W1.
### Tests
- `tests/test_adr_0170_w2_dcs_acquisition_verbs.py` (new) — 22 tests:
- Verb-set membership pins
- Acquisition ⊂ ADD_VERBS sanity check
- Possession + Acquisition disjoint
- Extractor records anchor_kind correctly
- Injector emits CandidateOperation for acquisition verbs
- Possession path still emits CandidateInitial unchanged
- Deliberate exclusions (gained / donated / saved) still refuse
- Case 0050 hazard pinned (does/contemplates not in either set)
- Determinism + roundtrip_admissible passes
- Updated `tests/test_adr_0163_d2_discrete_count_injection.py` to
reflect new anchor schema fields (anchor_kind, verb_token).
- Updated `tests/test_adr_0170_w1_injector_type_widening.py` —
the DCS injector now legitimately returns
`tuple[InjectorEmission, ...]` (not narrower).
## Deliberate exclusions
These verbs are NOT in `_ACQUISITION_VERBS` and the extractor refuses
them — preserving wrong=0:
- `gained / gains / gain` — delta-of-attribute (weight, age), not
acquisition. Admitting as add-operation would risk wrong>0 on
questions that ask total state.
- `donated / donates / donate` — SUBTRACT semantics (actor gives away).
- `saved / saves / save` — ambiguous (time vs money vs effort).
Widening this set is operator-reviewable per `feedback-wrong-zero-
hazard-case-0050` discipline.
## ADR-0131.G.1 branch-disagreement discipline preserved
The regex parser already emits `CandidateOperation(add)` for
acquisition verbs via `ADD_VERBS` for single-word units. The new DCS
injector path emits the same kind of operation for multi-word units
(where the regex parser fails). Collapsed-tie when both paths emit
identical operations on overlapping shapes; no disagreement.
## Test plan
- tests/test_adr_0170_w2_dcs_acquisition_verbs.py: 22 passed (new)
- tests/test_adr_0163_d2_discrete_count_injection.py: ~30 passed
(existing tests updated for new schema fields)
- tests/test_adr_0170_w1_injector_type_widening.py: 6 passed
- tests/test_recognizer_skip_wrong_zero.py + brief_11b + brief_11 +
candidate_graph_wiring + candidate_domain_partition: passed
- evals/gsm8k_math/train_sample/v1: counts=correct=3 refused=47 wrong=0
unchanged (case 0023 still has S2/S3 downstream blockers; W2's value
is infrastructure, not direct lift)
## Hard invariants
- `wrong == 0` preserved (case 0050 hazard pin + deliberate verb
exclusions + roundtrip_admissible gate)
- ADR-0166: no new eval lanes
- No teaching-store / pack mutation
- ADR-0131.G.1 branch-disagreement discipline preserved (acquisition →
operation, not initial)
- Five-layer wrong=0 safety net (ADR-0163.D.2) intact and extended
## W3 NOT in this PR — honest skip
Initial plan was to bundle W2 + W3 (A1 currency_amount injector).
Inspection of the 4 actual `currency_amount` GSM8K refusals showed
none match A1's narrow form (`<ProperNoun> earns|charges $<amount>`):
| Case | Statement | Reason narrow form doesn't fit |
|---|---|---|
| 0019 | "this requires 3 vet appointments, which cost $400 each" | anaphoric subject + multi-quantity |
| 0026 | "Aaron and his brother Carson each saved up $40" | multi-subject + "each" |
| 0028 | "It cost $100,000 to open initially" | pronoun subject |
| 0043 | "Her mother gave her an additional $4, and her father twice as much" | multi-clause + comparative + transfer |
Shipping W3 as-designed would have re-introduced the dead-code pattern
#373 just cleaned up. Skipped honestly; ADR-0172 Tier 1's decomposer
(the next wave) will surface category-shape mismatches like this
programmatically.
The G.2 test \`_comparative_clause_refusal_count\` reads \`report.json\`
and counts refusals whose reason quotes a statement clause containing
comparative anchors ("more/less than", "twice as many", etc.). After
#359's wrong=0 fix, the candidate-graph emits two refusal-reason
families that both quote a statement:
1. "no admissible candidate for statement: '...'" — parser-path
refusal (the comparative-parse-failure family this metric tracks).
2. "recognizer matched but produced no injection for statement:
'...'" — recognizer-path refusal; the quoted statement may
incidentally contain comparative anchors but the refusal cause is
the missing injector, NOT the comparative parse.
The pre-#359 counter only saw family (1) reasons; post-#359 it
over-counts whenever a recognizer-path refusal quotes a statement
containing comparative anchors. This was the test failure A2's PR
(#369) and the cleanup PR (#373) both surfaced.
## Fix
Filter the counter to exclude family (2) explicitly. Recognizer-path
refusals are tracked separately by the recognizer-wiring test suite;
they don't belong in the G.2 metric.
Result on current main:
- total statements with comparative anchors in refusal reasons: 2
- parser-path: 1 (case 0009, the legitimate G.2-tracked refusal)
- recognizer-path: 1 (filtered out — incidental anchor in #359-format reason)
- G.2 metric correctly reports 1 < baseline 2 → assertion passes
## Also: refresh report.json
The checked-in \`report.json\` was generated pre-#359 with the legacy
refusal-reason format. The runner now emits the new format on every
run; checking in the current output makes the baseline reproducible
and clears the CI friction that A2 originally flagged.
## Test plan
- tests/test_adr_0131_G2_comparatives.py: 25 passed (was 24 pass / 1 fail)
- tests/test_adr_0131_G4_multi_clause.py + G5_aggregate + S1_rate_events: 105 passed
- tests/test_brief_11b_audit_artifact + step2_lexicon + recognizer_skip + brief_11_audit + wiring + partition + adr_0163_d2: 89 passed
- Total: 219 passed
## Hard invariants
- No runtime change
- wrong=0 invariant preserved
- ADR-0166: no new eval lanes
- No teaching-store / pack mutation
First implementation PR of the ADR-0170 wave. Type-level widening only:
the recognizer-injector dispatch now returns
``tuple[InjectorEmission, ...]`` where
``InjectorEmission = CandidateInitial | CandidateOperation``.
The existing ``inject_discrete_count_statement`` continues to emit only
``CandidateInitial`` — the widening unlocks but does not exercise
operation emission. Subsequent W2-W5 PRs ship the per-injector emission
shapes:
- W2 — DCS-S1 acquisition verbs (CandidateOperation(add))
- W3 — A1 currency_amount (CandidateInitial reimplementation)
- W4 — A3 multiplicative_aggregation (CandidateInitial(product))
- W5 — A4 temporal_aggregation (deferred until apply_rate primitive)
## Changes
### `generate/recognizer_anchor_inject.py`
- New `InjectorEmission = Union[CandidateInitial, CandidateOperation]`
- `inject_from_match` return type widened to
`tuple[InjectorEmission, ...]`
- `__all__` exports `InjectorEmission`
- Documentation comment names ADR-0170 §"Implementation outline"
### `generate/math_candidate_graph.py` (admissibility dispatch)
The per-statement admission loop now dispatches admissibility on the
concrete candidate type:
if isinstance(c, CandidateInitial):
if _initial_admissible(c): admitted.append(c)
elif isinstance(c, CandidateOperation):
if roundtrip_admissible(c): admitted.append(c)
No new admission semantics — each type is gated by the predicate it was
already gated by elsewhere in the codebase. The dispatch unifies the
injector path with the parser path.
### `tests/test_adr_0170_w1_injector_type_widening.py` (new)
- Pin: `InjectorEmission` union members are exactly the two candidate types
- Pin: `inject_from_match` return type is widened
- Pin: `inject_discrete_count_statement` still emits CandidateInitial (W1
is type-level only)
- Hazard pin: case 0050 remains refused
- Hazard pin: unparseable-verb refusal path (#359) unchanged
- Anti-regression: canonical DCS narrow-form extraction still works
## Test plan
- tests/test_adr_0170_w1_injector_type_widening.py: 6 passed (new)
- tests/test_adr_0163_d2_discrete_count_injection.py: 21 passed
(existing D.2 v1 injector regression)
- tests/test_brief_11b_audit_artifact.py + step2_lexicon +
recognizer_skip_wrong_zero + brief_11_audit: 55 passed
- tests/test_candidate_graph_recognizer_wiring.py: 7 passed
- tests/test_candidate_domain_partition.py: 5 passed
- tests/test_adr_0131_G2_comparatives + G4 + G5 + S1_rate_events:
130 passed
- Total: 225 passed
- evals/gsm8k_math/train_sample/v1: counts=correct=3 refused=47 wrong=0
(unchanged; verified no behavioral regression)
## Hard invariants
- `wrong == 0` preserved (admissibility dispatch is type-aware but
semantically identical to the parser path's gating)
- ADR-0166: no new eval lanes
- No teaching-store / pack mutation
- Five-layer wrong=0 safety net (ADR-0163.D.2) intact
- Reader path unchanged
Three concrete cleanup items from the day's work, per the
cleanup-as-you-find memory principle.
## 1. Remove inject_rate_with_currency stub
PR #369 (A2 rate_with_currency) shipped a function that always returns
() with an extensive docstring documenting the Rate-not-in-SentenceChoice
schema gap. The function is dead at runtime — `_INJECTORS.get(category)`
returning None has the same downstream behavior as the function
returning (). The 16 tests pinned the empty-tuple return; the case-0050
hazard pin is duplicated in test_recognizer_skip_wrong_zero.py and
test_brief_11b_step2_lexicon.py.
The schema gap is now properly documented in ADR-0170 (PR #372). A
dispatch-table comment at the removal site retains the at-code pointer
to that ADR for anyone wiring a new injector.
Removed:
- `inject_rate_with_currency` function in generate/recognizer_anchor_inject.py
- Its `_INJECTORS` dispatch table entry
- Its `__all__` export
- tests/test_injector_rate_with_currency.py (371 lines, 16 tests)
## 2. Remove docs/handoff/GPT55-MOBILE-DISPATCH.md
Single-session travel-time scaffolding. The 5 tasks it named are
complete or superseded by ADR-0170's findings. Pure historical artifact.
## 3. Remove docs/handoff/WAVE-NEXT-INJECTORS.md
Superseded by docs/handoff/WAVE-NEXT-REVISED.md, which captures
everything load-bearing from the original brief in its A1–A4 findings
table. The "kept for history" justification didn't survive scrutiny:
the document was misframed (over-promised lift; misframed schema work
as injector work). Lessons captured in REVISED + ADR-0170.
Updated cross-references:
- WAVE-NEXT-REVISED.md: removed the "supersedes ... kept for history"
pointer; tightened cross-reference list
- ADR-0167-FOLLOWUPS.md §7: rewrote pointer to name ADR-0170 + REVISED
as the live plan rather than "the original is retained"
## Test plan
- 219 tests passed across G.2/G.4/G.5/S1/Brief 11/B1/B11A/wiring/partition/DCS-D.2
- evals/gsm8k_math/train_sample/v1/report.json untouched (regen
surfaces a separate stale-baseline test issue — out of cleanup scope)
- No runtime behavior change
## Net impact
- 5 files removed (~1200 lines)
- 1 file modified for explanatory comment (~30 lines)
- 2 doc files updated to remove dangling cross-references
- 0 behavioral change
The wrong=0 fix in #359 changed the candidate-graph's refusal-reason
format when a ratified recognizer matches but its v1 injector returns
():
- Pre-#359: silently drop the recognized statement and admit a partial
graph from the rest — a wrong>0 hazard analogous to case 0050.
- Post-#359: refuse explicitly with reason "recognizer matched but
produced no injection" naming the statement and recognizer category.
Three tests in `test_candidate_graph_recognizer_wiring.py` were written
against the pre-#359 silent-drop behavior:
1. `test_empty_registry_preserves_existing_refusal_reason` — asserted
the old "no admissible candidate" was the only valid format. Updated
to accept either the legacy format OR the new explicit-refusal
format.
2. `test_recognized_rate_statement_no_longer_triggers_per_statement_refusal`
— asserted that recognized statements should NOT cause a per-statement
refusal (encoding the silent-drop premise). Inverted to assert the
correct post-#359 behavior: recognized-but-uninjectable statements
refuse EXPLICITLY, and the statement IS named in the diagnostic.
Renamed to `_refuses_explicitly_post_wrong_zero_fix`.
3. `test_recognized_descriptive_statement_no_longer_triggers_per_statement_refusal`
— same inversion + rename.
Renames preserve the original sites for git-blame continuity while
making the post-#359 contract the documented behavior.
No runtime change. wrong=0 invariant preserved.
Test plan:
- tests/test_candidate_graph_recognizer_wiring.py: 7 passed (was 3 fail / 4 pass)
- tests/test_candidate_domain_partition.py: 5 passed (no cognition regression)
- tests/test_brief_11b_audit_artifact.py + step2_lexicon + recognizer_skip_wrong_zero + brief_11_audit: 55 passed
- Total: 62 passed
Wave-Next A2 brief outcome: the Rate type (ADR-0122) DOES structurally
model a per-unit rate, but it is not a member of the per-sentence
injector contract's SentenceChoice union (CandidateInitial |
CandidateOperation). The injector therefore returns () and documents
the schema gap inline plus in audit_brief_11.md.
Lift count: 0 (expected — the brief explicitly anticipates this
outcome when the schema decision is "no"). Documenting the gap is
the deliverable.
- generate/recognizer_anchor_inject.py: new inject_rate_with_currency
+ dispatch-table entry routing ShapeCategory.RATE_WITH_CURRENCY.
- tests/test_injector_rate_with_currency.py: 16 tests pinning schema
evidence, schema refusal, dispatch wiring, case 0050 hazard,
determinism, and wrong=0 invariant.
- evals/gsm8k_math/train_sample/v1/audit_brief_11.md: appended
Wave-Next A2 section documenting the schema decision, eval delta
(3/0/47 unchanged), case 0050 hazard verification, and the
CandidateRate follow-up sequencing.
Case 0050 hazard pin: sentence 0 ("Mark does a gig every other day
for 2 weeks.") carries no currency symbol — rate_with_currency
never matches it; case stays refused at sentence_index=0.
Adds 3 drain_token lemmas to en_core_math_v1 closing 2 of 3 remaining
lexicon_entry refusals from the prior wave:
- path (case 0049, new lemma)
- journey (case 0049 follow-on after path resolved)
- sees → alias of existing "see" lemma (case 0040)
The third remaining lexicon_entry refusal (case 0001, '+') is
deliberately NOT closed: '+' is an arithmetic operator literal, not a
lexical token. Adding it as drain_token would silently drop arithmetic
content from problems like "5 + 3 apples", a wrong=0 hazard. Documented
in the PR body and audit artifact.
Refusal taxonomy shift:
- unknown_word: 5 → 3 (-2)
- unresolved_pronoun: 3 → 4 (+1) — case 0049's pronoun barrier surfaced
- incomplete_operation: 20 → 21 (+1) — case 0049's quantity gap surfaced
Hard invariants:
- wrong == 0 (admitted=0, verified)
- case 0050 hazard pinned (refused at sentence_index=0)
- manifest checksum unchanged (per-category source file edit)
- no teaching-store mutation; no reader runtime change
## Summary
Two test failures on origin/main both trace to PR #315 (ADR-0163.D.2 —
discrete_count_statement recognizer + admissibility-intent chain). Earlier
runs treated them as "pre-existing unrelated" — they are not unrelated.
The first is a real wrong>0 hazard.
## Failure 1: silent admission via recognized-but-uninjectable statement
The ratified `discrete_count_statement` recognizer over-matches: ANY
sentence containing a number + noun resolves it, irrespective of the verb.
When `inject_from_match` returns `()` (the round-2 default for v1
categories without an injector), the old code path used `continue` to
silently drop the statement — and the solver then answered from whatever
initial state remained.
Reproduction:
parse_and_solve("Sam has 5 apples. Sam contemplates 3 apples. "
"How many apples does Sam have?")
→ is_admitted=True, answer=5.0 (silent admission of partial graph)
This is exactly the case-0050-class hazard wearing a different hat
(silently admitting an incomplete graph at the problem level).
ADR-0167 / Brief 11 §"correct-count greed" established the principle on
the reader path; this commit extends it to the recognizer path.
Fix: when a recognizer matches but produces no injection, REFUSE.
generate/math_candidate_graph.py:
- Replaced the skip-only `continue` with a CandidateGraphResult
refusal carrying the recognizer category in the reason.
tests/test_math_candidate_graph.py:
- test_unparseable_statement now accepts either the legacy
"no admissible candidate" reason or the new
"recognizer matched but produced no injection" reason.
Both legitimately refuse; what matters is is_admitted=False.
tests/test_recognizer_skip_wrong_zero.py (NEW):
- 5 regression tests pinning the wrong=0 invariant:
* 3 parametrized verbs unknown to both regex parser and reader
(contemplates / ponders / memorises) — must all refuse
* Nonsense token — must refuse
* Anti-regression: known initial + known operation still admits
## Failure 2: cognition audit drop-reason taxonomy
The audit test hardcoded `dropped.reason.startswith("superseded_by:")`
as the only valid drop-reason prefix. Commit da70919 (ADR-0163.D.2)
ratified an admissibility-intent chain that the audit categorizes with
reason `unsupported_intent:admissibility`, which fails this assertion.
Fix: tests/test_teaching_audit.py — expand the allowed-prefix set to
include `unsupported_intent:` with a written rationale. Future drop
classes extend the allowlist deliberately rather than silently
broadening the assertion to any non-empty reason.
## Surfaced regression: partition-test allowlist (ADR-0167 FOLLOWUPS §2)
This PR modifies three test files that the
test_existing_cognition_tests_untouched assertion would reject under
its named-allowlist scheme. Added the three test paths to the allowlist
as the tactical fix; the architectural fix (retire / move to CI / move
to CODEOWNERS) is queued in docs/handoff/ADR-0167-FOLLOWUPS.md §2.

## Hard invariants
- wrong == 0 — restored on the recognizer path (was silently violated on main)
- ADR-0166 — no new eval lanes
- No teaching-store mutation, no pack mutation
- The reader path was already correct (it refused these cases); this fix
brings the regex/recognizer path back in line
Wave 3, closes the LexicalClaim slice of ADR-0167. After this PR the
math reader's refusal taxonomy is evidence, not terminus: lexical
refusals flow through audit row → typed evidence → dedup signature →
HITL ratification (W2-D) → pack write → next-audit-pass-resolves.
Deliverables
------------
- tests/test_math_evidence_e2e.py (new, 7 tests):
* test_full_pipeline_from_audit_to_evidence
* test_e2e_replay_equivalence
* test_lexical_ratification_advances_unknown_word_row (case 0040 'sees')
* test_e2e_determinism_across_processes
* test_cognition_teaching_corridor_unaffected
* test_evidence_dedup_via_claim_signature
* test_audit_artifact_round_trip_with_signatures
- evals/gsm8k_math/train_sample/v1/audit_brief_11.md: Post-W2 baseline
table + cognition regression line + case 0050 hazard status + pointer
to the new e2e regression module.
- tests/test_candidate_domain_partition.py: minimal allowlist patch to
test_existing_cognition_tests_untouched so that future ADR-0167 PRs
can add their own evidence test files without tripping a structurally
brittle hard-coded whitelist (W2-C partition risk; recorded in PR body).
Hard constraints held
---------------------
- wrong == 0: case 0050 hazard still refuses at sentence_index 0
after the tmpdir-pack 'sees' ratification; no admission introduced.
- Cognition regression: zero modifications to cognition test bodies;
only the W2-C whitelist assertion was loosened.
- Determinism: in-process and cross-process evidence_hash byte-identical.
- No real-pack mutation: a per-test digest fixture asserts
language_packs/data/en_core_math_v1/ is byte-identical before and
after each test.
Out of scope
------------
- Frame/Composition/Reference/Slot ratification handlers (follow-up ADRs).
- Workbench v1 wiring of math candidates (ADR-0167 §Q4).
- Auto-ratification — HITL only, forever.
- The two partition risks Gemini flagged in W2-C (cognition pack indexing,
replay-gate default) remain follow-up.
With this PR merged the engine can ratify math-domain lexical claims
from its own refusal evidence through the existing HITL teaching
corridor — the thesis claim of ADR-0167 becomes a concrete green test.
Adds `teaching/math_claim_signature.py` with `lexical_claim_signature()`:
sha256 hex of a normalised lexical token, collapsing two refusal cases on
the same surface token into one teaching-corpus candidate.
Normalisation pipeline (documented in module, breaking-change surface):
1. Lowercase surface
2. Strip string.punctuation from both ends (!"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_`{|}~)
3. Extract token from refusal_detail via r"no primitive or lexicon match for '([^']+)'"
4. Fallback: use stripped-lowercase surface if regex doesn't match
5. Canonical: "lexical:" + extracted_token
6. sha256 hex of UTF-8 bytes → 64-char lowercase hex
Also adds `teaching/math_contemplation.py` (W2-A adapter included as
union-merge; W2-A worktree was not yet dispatched):
- `audit_to_evidence()`: AuditRow iterable → MathReaderRefusalEvidence tuple
- `audit_problem_to_evidence()`: convenience wrapper for tests and W3-A
- Lexical evidence: claim_signature filled; evidence_hash recomputed to include it
- Non-lexical sub_types: claim_signature stays "" (deferred per ADR-0167 §Q1)
Real-data result on audit_brief_11.json:
- 14 distinct lexical tokens → 14 distinct signatures (no false collisions)
- No duplicate tokens in the 50-case sample; dedup logic verified deterministic
Wave 2, parallel with W2-C/D; depends on W1-A branch.
wrong=0 verified by passing regression suite.
Wave 2, parallel with W2-B/C/D. Implements the type-A→type-B converter
from AuditRow to MathReaderRefusalEvidence per ADR-0167 W2-A brief.
Deliverables:
- teaching/math_contemplation.py:
- audit_to_evidence(audit_rows): pure deterministic adapter, uses
SUB_TYPE_FOR_OPERATOR for subtype assignment, skips rows where
missing_operator is None, leaves claim_signature="" (W2-B will fill)
- audit_problem_to_evidence(problem_text, case_id): convenience wrapper
that runs the reader and adapts the output
- tests/test_math_contemplation_adapter.py: 8 tests covering
determinism, input-order preservation, sub-type mapping
exhaustiveness, distinct hashes across cases, empty input handling,
None-operator skip, and round-trip from problem text
Invariants:
- Deterministic across reruns (verified by determinism rerun)
- No I/O in adapter path
- Input order preserved (no internal sort)
- claim_signature == "" for all W2-A records (W2-B coordination)
Validation:
- tests/test_math_contemplation_adapter.py: 8 passed
- tests/test_math_evidence_schema.py: 11 passed (W1-A regression)
- tests/test_brief_11b_audit_artifact.py + step2_lexicon + brief_11_audit:
45 passed (regression)
- Determinism rerun: identical results
