Five fast-lane failures on main made the full suite dishonest.
- Refresh INV-21 allowlist pins in demo tests for holographic_vault (ADR-0241)
- Skip non-powerable (mixed-parity) rotor_power calls in generate recall and
session anchor pull instead of crashing the cognitive path
- Align session_anchor_pull fixture to grade-1 field parity
- Ledger: docs/analysis/full-suite-reds-ledger-2026-07.md
[Verification]: targeted 10 passed; lane SHAs 9/9; smoke 175 passed
Builds the one missing safeguard from the 4-blueprint integration audit:
the mirror-inversion protection (core_ha §5.2: sgn(∫⟨ψ I₅ ψ̃⟩₀) = const).
The chiral charge was a verified non-vacuous READOUT, but goldtether took
abs(), discarding the sign — orientation was measured, never enforced.
- core/physics/chiral_gate.py: ChiralOrientationGate latches sgn(Q) on the
first non-vacuous reading (|Q| >= 0.1 floor); a materially re-emerging
flip raises ChiralOrientationError (fail-closed; a sign flip is
unreachable under rotor transport, so it evidences corruption).
Even field-states stay vacuous — no orientation fabricated, no #19
revival; the gate is behaviorally inert on today's serve path.
- goldtether_residual now feeds the SIGNED charge to the gate; the
residual term keeps magnitude-only semantics byte-identical (pinned).
- Docs: integration-plan missing-piece row -> BUILT; fidelity ledger §12
gains the failable pin row.
TDD RED->GREEN. [Verification]: smoke suite passed locally (141s, 175
passed); gate suite 7 passed; goldtether-consumer regression 99 passed.
The CLI 'smoke' suite omitted tests/test_audio_*.py (6 files) that the
.github/workflows/smoke.yml PR gate runs — so the new AGENTS.md local-first
pre-push gate ('core test --suite smoke') was silently narrower than CI
(108 vs 175 tests). Adds the audio lane explicitly and pins parity:
test_cli_smoke_suite_covers_ci_smoke_gate parses the workflow's tests/
paths (globs expanded) and fails if the CLI tuple ever lags the CI gate.
[Verification]: CI-identical smoke file set passed locally (134s, 175
passed); tests/test_cli_test_suites.py 10 passed incl. the new pin.

Summary is the living status surface; the two plans are point-in-time
archives (CI-state headers say 'as of archive').
Importing chat.runtime transitively loaded 5 off-serving modules
(wave_manifold, holographic_vault, fibonacci_search, multi_scale_energy,
wave_energy_boundary) through the core/physics package barrel — falsifying
the 'serve path not wired' acceptance row while the direct-AST A-04 pin
stayed green.
Reconciliation (ruled 2026-07-15): one substrate, two tiers.
- T1 sanctioned serve substrate: wave_manifold (goldtether/surprise/
biography delegate to it) — stays eager, removed from the A-04 ban list.
- T2 off-serving (holographic_vault, fibonacci_search, wave_energy_boundary,
multi_scale_energy): converted to PEP 562 lazy __getattr__ exports so the
serve process never loads them; 'from core.physics import X' still works
for off-serving callers. TYPE_CHECKING block keeps static analysis intact.
- New tests/test_serve_quarantine_transitive.py enforces the process-level
invariant via a clean-interpreter sys.modules probe (RED against the old
barrel, GREEN now).
Evidence: docs/research/adr-0241-0242-adversarial-and-fidelity-findings.md
(Finding #2). 179 affected tests green.
Unblock the single Act runner: post-merge full-pytest runs the fast
marker (not quarantine and not slow); full non-quarantine suite moves
to nightly + workflow_dispatch. lane-shas uses job-level path detection
so docs-only PRs skip green without hanging required checks. Sync
smoke/conftest/docs CI contracts to the PR/main/nightly policy.
Root cause of demo_composition pin thrash was not cancelled CI runs:
verify_no_global_state_mutation dumped full env_subset before/after
tuples into the lane report, embedding CORE_ENGINE_STATE_DIR temp
paths (and any ambient CORE_* host values). Each hermetic run then
produced a different report SHA.
Fix for good:
- Report key-level env deltas only (+/- / changed), with path-like
CORE_* values redacted to <path> in the message text.
- Detection still uses raw snapshots (mutations are not ignored).
- Hermetic CORE_ENGINE_STATE_DIR for demo_composition and all
verify_lane_shas invocations.
- Dual-run-stable re-pin: demo_composition e2ba2314…,
public_demo 7d8ba0db… (matches CI-observed soft-budget SHA).
- Drop dead CORE_SHOWCASE_SKIP_BUDGET workflow env (soft is default).
- Tests pin the delta format and hermetic-path stability.
Lane: python scripts/verify_lane_shas.py → 9/9 match.
- Implemented design (A) for P8: odd-capable mixed-parity spinor packets
produce a strictly non-vacuous and informative chiral charge
Q = <ψ I_5 ~ψ>_0 that measures correlation between the even and odd-dual parts.
- Proved via TDD that Q is non-vacuous on mixed-parity spinors and strictly
conserved under left unitary rotor multiplication.
- Updated wave_manifold.py docstrings to clarify that while Q is structurally
vacuous for even field-states (retiring #19), it is fully functional for
general spinors.
- Flipped W4 in the fidelity scorecard to GREEN and updated ADR-0241.
- Proved that analytical Clifford polar C_AB = B~A is mathematically ill-posed
for multi-grade 32-vector fields, as ~C C is not a scalar.
- Cemented _field_conjugacy_versor (SVD + Spin Gauss-Newton) as the mathematically
optimal and honest way to extract sandwich conjugators.
- Updated ADR-0241 to demote the polar claim and favor the thin wrap.
- Updated third-door-blueprint-fidelity.md to flip W3 to GREEN (honest demotion).
- Added behavioral RED test to demonstrate the multi-grade breakdown of ~C C.

Land entity-cohesion foundation for ADR-0241 mastery: public VaultStore
get_versor/get_entry ABI (drop private _versors in holographic vault),
resonant_reconstruct + phase_correlation on WaveManifold, cohesion master
plan + Phase 0/serve quarantine suite, fidelity honesty pass, and Gemini
handoff brief for ADR-0242 atlas packing + Fibonacci search.
Implement promotion_eligible (closed ∧ drift≤ε), promote live
closure/drift refuse even when authorized, require_proof, and
prune(mode=principal_axes) keeping primals + highest principal-energy
non-primals (differs from FIFO). Proof fields never trusted as truth.
Ledger #18 flipped green; ADR-0092 reviewer service remains external.
Add GoldPromotionProof, expand promote/prune signatures, promotion_eligible
stub, and behavioral suite for residual/closure gates, require_proof,
principal_axes prune, and SERVE containment. Intentionally incomplete:
principal_axes and eligibility raise NotImplementedError; dirty promote
still admitted — RED until GREEN.
Smoke reds came from (1) denormal stream weights powering non-simple splits
and (2) invariant-split factors with B² higher residual in 1e-6..1e-3 dust
band raising fail-closed. Early R^0→I / R^1→R; raise simple B² higher tol
to 1e-3 with named constant. Pins multiplane transition + near-zero alpha.
