The ratified capability, through the existing mutation owner only:
- teaching/proof_promotion.py — pure decider. Fresh-reads every premise AND
the claim from the store (claim_entry_index; forms never proposer-supplied),
strict status compares (no parse-defaulting), reading_certified must be the
boolean True, engine certification via the pinned deductive engine,
proposer_payload accepted and provably never read (del before use; poisoned-
mapping test), certificate digest emitted for D4 trace-hash folding. Zero
mutation; zero vault.store calls; zero status writes (proven with the
INV-21/INV-29 detectors themselves).
- vault/store.py::apply_certified_promotion — the single transition site.
Independently re-verifies: byte-for-byte replay under DEDUCTIVE_ENGINE_PIN,
promotion_positive, live claim form/reading/status cross-checks, live
premise form/reading/status cross-checks (staleness refuses). Fabricated or
tampered certificates flip nothing; authority is live store state plus
recomputation, never the artifact.
- generate/proof_chain/engine_pin.py — DEDUCTIVE_ENGINE_PIN mirrors the
deductive_logic_v1 lane SHA; sync pinned by AST test against
scripts/verify_lane_shas.py.
- Consistency fix found in lookback: both promotion sites now stamp
epistemic_state alongside epistemic_status (the ADR-0148 site left the
stored state tag stale; recall recomputed it, but the stored key lied).
Obligations: all six strict-xfail markers retired and live (O1/O2
strengthened to prove the transition through the vault owner); the
module-existence pin deleted per its own docstring; the two remaining
honesty pins kept. INV-21 allowlist unchanged; INV-29 allowlist unchanged
({vault/store.py}); INV-29's 29c visibility floor raised 2 -> 3 to cover the
new site.
No runtime turn path calls promotion; the deterministic demo is PR D.
Validation: new suite 49 passed; obligations 8 passed (0 xfail remaining);
invariants 66 passed; certificate 27 passed; 0148 6 passed; epistemic 20
passed; smoke files green; lane SHAs verified.
Architect-directed ratification: D1 (pure decider / vault-owned mutation),
D2 (reading stays curator-certified in the first cut), D3 (exact predicate,
including REFUTED -> no transition), D4 (certificate fields + trace-hash
folding), and INV-29 as the permanent transition-site boundary, all ACCEPTED.
Two fail-closed realizations recorded under D3: the claim form is fresh-read
from the claim's own stored entry (never proposer-supplied), and zero-premise
tautology certificates refuse rather than promote in v1.
Docs-only: no runtime behavior changes in this commit. P3 implementation
(teaching/proof_promotion.py + VaultStore.apply_certified_promotion) follows
in the same PR as separate commits.
Pure evidence substrate for proof-carrying coherence promotion. No
promotion, no vault import, no status transition, no teaching-path
change; ADR-0218 stays Proposed.
- generate/proof_chain/certificate.py: frozen PromotionCertificate
(version/claim_form/premise ids+forms+statuses/entailment_trace/
engine_pin/decision/reason, canonical_json with sort_keys+compact
separators); build_certificate runs evaluate_entailment_with_trace
over entry_id-sorted premises; verify_certificate rebuilds from the
embedded forms and accepts iff byte-identical — tampered forms/claim/
trace/decision/reason/ordering/version all fail replay, structural
breakage fails closed as malformed_certificate.
- promotion_positive is necessary-not-sufficient: entailed over a
non-empty all-coherent recorded premise set; REFUTED/UNKNOWN/REFUSED
verify as themselves but are never positive; zero-premise tautology
certificates fail-closed non-positive in v1.
- engine_pin is recorded provenance; pin tampering is caught only via
caller-supplied expected_engine_pin (P3 must pass the lane SHA) —
limit pinned by dedicated tests.
- entail.py: docstring-only fix removing the incorrect ADR-0206
attribution (numbering collision); now cites ADR-0218. Zero behavior
change. generate_claims.py:74 still carries the label (serving-frozen
surface, flagged for follow-up).
- No xfail markers retire: every PR-A obligation binds to the P3
promoter, which must not exist before ratification. The certificate-
shaped halves of O1/O7 are proven for real in
tests/test_proof_chain_certificate.py (27 tests). ADR phasing bullet
and obligations docstring record the reconciliation.
Validation: certificate 27 passed; obligations 3 passed + 6 xfailed;
architectural invariants 61 passed (INV-21/INV-29 green, allowlists
unchanged); entail/builder/rules 61 passed; smoke files 95 passed.
PR A of the stack specified by docs/issues/proof-carrying-coherence-promotion.md.
No runtime change; no promotion behavior; ADR-0218 is Proposed, not ratified.
- ADR-0218 (Proposed): rulings the issue Section 9 demands — extend the
existing mutation owner (policy decides in teaching/proof_promotion.py at
P3, only vault/store.py mutates), reading stays curator-certified in the
first cut, exact fail-closed admissibility predicate, certificate folds
into trace_hash. Records two substrate corrections: proof_chain Phase 2
(2.1-2.4) is already implemented, and ADR-0148 already automates an
energy-arm promotion.
- INV-29 (passing): epistemic-status transition sites are allowlisted.
ADR-0148's in-place promotion proved INV-21's AST scan cannot see
status transitions (they are not store() calls) — the boundary the
issue calls highest-risk did not actually cover the riskiest shape.
Allowlist pinned to {vault/store.py} BEFORE any promoter exists;
detector mutation-proven non-vacuous (29b/29c).
- Obligations O1-O5, O7 as strict xfail (executable spec; ImportError today;
strict=True forces the P3 PR to retire markers and pass for real) + three
honesty pins that flip red if promotion is wired without review.
Validation (worktree off main@187b008b, python -m pytest):
- tests/test_proof_carrying_promotion_obligations.py: 3 passed, 6 xfailed
- tests/test_architectural_invariants.py: 60 passed (56 prior + 4 INV-29)
- smoke file set: 94 passed
- proof_chain/entail/binding-graph/ADR-0148 set: 84 passed
- epistemic/teaching set: 40 passed
- scripts/verify_lane_shas.py: 8/9 pinned lanes match incl. deductive_logic_v1;
public_demo missed on the known env wall-clock budget flake (47.6s > 30s),
pre-existing and unrelated (diff is docs+tests only).
Consolidation/true-up after #646-#648. Records the off-serving comprehension
system as one ledger: R1 relational arithmetic, R2 finite-integer constraints,
R3 explicit single-rate + exact minute/hour conversion, the router/contemplation/
proposal loop, the proposal-review reporter, idle_tick read-only visibility, and
the standing router-organ-hygiene invariant. Pins the whole-system lane state
(answer_wrong==0 everywhere) and the off-serving import-disjointness guarantee.
Also fixes a documentation-integrity defect the R2 batch introduced: the R2 ADR
took number 0211, which collided with ADR-0211 (Conformal Falsification Bench,
2026-06-06 — earlier, test-pinned, depended on by ADR-0216). The conformal ADR
keeps 0211; the R2 ADR is renumbered to the next free number 0217. Ratified
decision content unchanged; only the identifier and references move.
evals/constraint_oracle: span-free canonical setup signature (unknowns/facts/constraints/query; terms merged+sorted, lhs constant folded into rhs), a 13-fixture gold (7 solved / 3 solver_refuses / 3 reader_refuses) with a closed expect+refusal taxonomy, and a gold-validation runner. No reader yet — this proves the ruler is coherent (13/13 valid), not capability.
ADR-0211 ratifies the R2 finite-integer two-category constraint compiler: the IR, the canonical signature, the closed taxonomy, the four wrong=0 gates (setup oracle / reader refusal / exact solver / answer-choice contradiction flag), off-serving disjointness, and the C1-C9 ladder. Cross-refs ADR-0207/0175/0083/0055-0057; reuses the R1 setup_oracle pattern. Off-serving (no generate.derivation / reliability_gate). 13 oracle tests incl. per-branch meaningful-fail.
PR-6c adds the divisive comparative frame: "half as many" read as EXACT INTEGER
DIVISION. It is the divisor twin of PR-5c's multiplicative frame, and moves the
independent R1 gold's r1-02-half from refused → correct.
No serving path touched. No rational/fractional answer support added. Non-exact
division refuses.
Design (ADR-0134 amended — divide made symmetric with multiply):
- `_check_divide` now admits a SINGLE-DEP divide-by-dimensionless-literal
(item / dimensionless = item), the exact twin of single-dep multiply. The
2-dep rate-divide path is untouched. This keeps the IR's "literal operands
are not deps" invariant (proven in PR-6a) uniform across Mul AND Div, so the
reader builds both without a per-op special case and WITHOUT synthesizing a
divisor symbol that would pollute the setup-oracle's unit signature.
- `Div(Symbol, Literal)` IR node: "ref / divisor", operation_kind "divide",
projects to `divide_by`. Divisor-only contract mirrors the scalar-only one.
- Reader: `_DIVISOR_WORDS={half:2}` slots into the same 8-token "<WORD> as many"
template as the factor words; graph carries only the two entities.
- Gold reconciliation: r1-02 placeholder `times_as_many factor 0.5` → exact
`divide_by divisor 2` (gold 4). Makes the INDEPENDENT gold integer-faithful.
The wrong=0 boundary — exact divisibility:
the oracle admits `divide_by` only when `base % divisor == 0`. An odd base
halved REFUSES (gold_error), never floors to a wrong integer. Divisor must be
a nonzero int (0, 0.5, 1.5, bool all refuse); divisor=1 is intentionally the
identity (pinned). admissibility proves DIMENSION; the oracle proves EXACT VALUE.
Meaningful-fail (CLAUDE.md Schema-Defined Proof Obligations), both verified red:
- drop the `% divisor` guard → test_oracle_refuses_non_exact_division fails (returns 3).
- disable the single-dep divide branch → the admissibility test AND the reader's
`half` test fail (admissibility refuses → reader refuses → half stays refused).
Gates:
R1 setup: 3 correct / 0 wrong / 7 refused
R1 answers: 3 correct / 0 wrong / 7 refused / setup_wrong 0 / gold_error 0
15-case setup: 15 / 0 / 0
91 PR-6c tests + 60 relational lanes + 56 architectural invariants + 502
binding-graph/proof-chain/adapter tests green. All 8 SHA-content lanes match
(serving unmoved; admissibility has no generate.derivation/reliability_gate consumer).
Completes the ADR-0206 §5 math-serving deferral in its own careful PR. The GSM8K
wrong=0 serving gate, select_self_verified, now takes a ReachPolicy. This changes
NO serving behavior today — it is the safe, byte-identical, sanctioned first edit to
the most wrong=0-critical line, with a live-wiring test, so a future VERIFIED
widening has a precise, proven integration point.
Why it can't actually widen yet (the tension scoping surfaced): GSM8K wrong=0 is
ABSOLUTE (zero wrong, ever); a reliability license is STATISTICAL (a 0.99 Wilson
floor); math answers aren't disclosed like the cognition path (E). So widening the
math serve on a statistical license would eventually serve a SILENT wrong. ADR-0206
§4 foresaw this: VERIFIED is "the only state that will license widening past gold,"
and it is reserved pending a canonical-comparison pass (the soundness≠correctness
gap) that is unbuilt.
Design (safe by construction):
- select_self_verified(..., policy=STRICT_POLICY). STRICT (the default every one of
the 5 callers passes) is the prior logic verbatim — unique answer → Resolution;
zero-verify or disagreement → refuse. Byte-identical: the pinned serving-lane SHAs
(demo_composition 3a3d09f3, fabrication 01e1b6b7, math_teaching_corpus eaf160d1)
are unchanged; Resolution is unchanged; no import cycle.
- A wider reach resolves a disagreement ONLY via _canonically_verified — the VERIFIED
gate — whose body returns None (capability unbuilt). So the widening is
STRUCTURALLY inert: a disagreement refuses regardless of policy. wrong=0 holds by
construction, not caller discipline. A statistical reliability license is NOT
consulted by the math path (the cognition/math asymmetry is deliberate: cognition
discloses, math is absolute).
- test_seam_is_live_wiring injects the gate to prove the consumer fires under a wider
reach — and STRICT still refuses even then.
Verified: smoke (90), invariants (56), governance + selfverify + ms2 (354 incl. the
new seam tests), GSM8K serving regression byte-identical (the one red,
test_serving_unchanged_by_search expecting stale 6/44, fails identically on clean
main — a pre-existing stale artifact, not this change). Three-lens adversarial review
(byte-identity/seal, structural wrong=0 inertness, no-overclaim): all held.
The real unlock — a VERIFIED canonical-comparison producer — is scoped in
docs/analysis/VERIFIED-canonical-comparison-scoping-2026-06-06.md (recommended:
back-substitution / constraint-satisfaction on a checkable problem class). Still
deferred: SITUATE (stakes), the live FEED-BACK loop, reach_level JSONL emission.
The final AGI-spine step (A INSTRUMENT → B WIRE → C DEEPEN → D CLOSE → E ESTIMATION).
The engine may now SERVE a DISCLOSED estimate for a query it would otherwise refuse —
but only for a predicate-class that has measured itself reliable, and never as fact.
This executes the ADR-0206 §5 cognition-path widening: the bridge's LICENSE node
(reliability_gate.license_for), previously "built — not yet called from serving", is now
called. govern_response returns APPROXIMATE iff a genuine licensed Action.SERVE
LicenseDecision is passed (STRICT for every other input — so every existing serving call
site is byte-identical); shape_surface DISCLOSES the estimate as "[approximate] …".
Mechanism:
- generate/determine/estimate.py — a BLIND converse-guesser: told p(a,b), asked p(b,a),
it commits the converse. It never reads the pack's symmetry metadata; whether the guess
is right is MEASURED, not assumed.
- evals/determination_estimation/ — the gold lane: run_practice (sealed, ADR-0199) folds
the converse-guesser over symmetric (sibling_of) vs directed (parent_of) cases, scored
against the pack's graph.edge.symmetric truth (gold independent of the solver). The gate
DISCRIMINATES: sibling_of earns SERVE (660 correct → Wilson floor 0.990046 ≥ θ_SERVE),
parent_of does not (660 wrong → 0.0). The license is earned by VOLUME — 657 perfect
commits is the exact θ_SERVE=0.99 threshold (656 is below).
- generate/determine/data/estimation_ledger.json — the ratified committed ledger,
hash-verified on load (a hand-edited ledger raises RatifiedLedgerError); it IS the
deterministic sealed-practice output (a GSM8K-style --check test pins this).
- chat/runtime.py — when a converse query is refused and the class holds a SERVE license,
the disclosed estimate is surfaced through the bridge (gated by config.estimation_enabled,
default OFF; only meaningful with accrue_realized_knowledge).
Invariants:
- wrong=0 by construction — an estimate is ALWAYS disclosed ([approximate]), never a silent
commit (UNVERIFIED_POSSIBLE is never in APPROXIMATE's admissible set), and only a genuine
ratified license widens (a forged {"licensed":True} dict / a PROPOSE license / an
unlicensed SERVE all stay STRICT). Defense-in-depth: type-gate ∧ admissible-set ∧
hardcoded disclosed state.
- never self-authored — ceilings stay at safe defaults (θ_SERVE=0.99); the engine cannot
raise its own bar. The ledger is sealed practice, hash-verified.
- session/serving only — no corpus/pack/identity/proposal/vault mutation; the HITL teaching
path is untouched. Deterministic; no clock/random.
- byte-identical for every non-E turn (the 2643 govern_response call passes no license).
Out of scope (separate ADR-0206 §5 PRs): the math-serving seam (select_self_verified,
touches the sealed metric), SITUATE (stakes), and the live FEED-BACK loop.
Verified green: smoke (90), architectural invariants (56), response_governance (321,
incl. the new license-gated widening test), the determination-estimation lane (12), and
the B/D/determine regression net. Four-lens adversarial review (disclosure/wrong=0,
calibration integrity, byte-identity, boundary/determinism): all held. Design:
docs/analysis/E-estimation-design-2026-06-06.md.
Review/ratification pass over the 6-phase afferent environment-falsification
roadmap (rebased onto D-inclusive main). The roadmap validated green: smoke (90),
architectural invariants (56), the full sensorium suite, all phase tests, and the
four eval lanes (environment-falsification / event-vision / vision / sensorimotor)
report failed:0. A five-lens adversarial review found the efferent gate
fail-closed (default-deny, conjunctive safety∧ethics∧tool_scope, refuses before
the decoder, hash-only traces, no real decoder, no overclaim), the afferent
Phases 1-5 read-only (runtime import-guards + frozen dataclasses), and the
expected-artifact obligations deterministic + meaningfully-failing. Two
reconciliations from that review:
1. Witness-log importer trust boundary (sensorium/logs/importer.py). The offline
JSONL importer now rejects malformed input with a deterministic ValueError
instead of a raw JSONDecodeError/KeyError, names the 1-based line on a bad
JSON line, rejects non-object records and non-integer ticks, and size-caps the
file (8 MiB) so an oversized log is refused rather than read whole. The trust
boundary is now stated in the module + function docstrings. Behavior for VALID
logs is byte-identical (the environment-falsification lane hashes are
unchanged). New rejection-path tests added.
2. ADR-0198 reconciliation. The §3 verdict-enforcing GATE mechanism
(VerdictEnforcingEfferentGate + MotorActionIntent) has now landed, so the
Implementation Status is amended to say so — while being explicit that the §3
lowering itself (deriving verdicts from the ADR-0029/0033/0036/0037 governance
packs), the motor decoder (every adapter is decoder=None), and ratification by
the dedicated motor governance ADR (now drafted as ADR-0216, Proposed) all
remain deferred. No physical motor decode is authorized.
Disjoint from the GSM8K serving path and from Step D (generate/determine|realize,
chat/runtime, core/config) — clean rebase, no overlap.
Rename adr-012-l10-grounding.md -> ADR-0210-l10-grounding-pack.md: the
requested number collided with ADR-0012-core-ingest-governance-layer.md and
did not follow the ADR-NNNN convention. 0210 is the next free number.
Record the one latent soundness item: l10-adv-003 (false) vs l10-adv-008
(refuse) take different stances on an unsatisfied guard; the discriminating
principle (same-sort negative -> false; cross-sort mismatch -> refuse) must
be encoded by the future symbolic runner before the fixtures become a live
wrong=0 oracle. Pack + fixtures remain inert and byte-identical.
Authority-ratified per the ADR-0207 convention (Accepted (ratified DATE)):
- ADR-0181 (audio), ADR-0197 (vision), ADR-0208 (environmental loop),
ADR-0209 (sensorimotor afferent) -> Accepted (ratified 2026-06-03).
All four are implemented + test-backed (0208/0209 falsifiability deeply
verified in the lookback; 0181/0197 backed by CRDT-merge/compiler/mount/
eval-gate suites, all green in the 182-test sweep).
- ADR-0198 deliberately NOT ratified: partially-implemented spike (Gap A +
fail-closed efferent gate landed; \xc2\xa73 verdict-lowering + motor decoder
deferred behind a dedicated motor governance ADR).
CLAUDE.md Work Sequencing now records the sensorium/modalities arc as a
sanctioned parallel track that does not displace the near-term sequence and
is disjoint from the GSM8K serving path. Markdown only; no test asserts ADR
status or the work-sequencing text.
DefaultEfferentGate is a capability/shape pre-filter only; it does not
lower decoded actions into safety/ethics pack verdicts (ADR-0198 §3 /
§1.2 Gap B). ModalityRegistry.decode/decode_batch now refuse fail-closed
any emission through a gate whose enforces_action_verdicts is False,
unless an explicit allow_unverified_efferent sandbox opt-in is set.
A real motor decoder thus cannot emit through the capability-only gate;
the §3 verdict-lowering gate must be built and installed first. No
production caller of the decode path exists today, so this closes the
latent hazard before a motor decoder makes it load-bearing. Adds two
falsifiable tests (fail-closed refusal; verdict-enforcing gate allowed).
Disjoint from the GSM8K serving path.
ADR-0181/0197/0208/0209 were marked Proposed despite test-backed
afferent implementations merged to main; flip to Accepted with
verifiable Implementation lines (paths + PRs + falsifiable tests).
ADR-0198's 'no implementation' status was stale (Gap A protocol
change + baseline efferent gate landed in #541); correct it and
document the deferred §3 safety/ethics verdict-lowering as an
explicit blocking obligation before any motor decoder mounts.
Reading the actual gate logic (product_bridge/pool/verify) corrected §5's
sequencing optimism, before merge:
- The safe wire is already done (product_bridge at :530); its safety is a
two-token target whitelist (money+make/earn, weight+total/move) hardcoded to
0003/0021 — it generalizes nothing.
- Verified live (2026-06-03): the general composer resolve_pooled refuses ALL
ten R1/R4/R5/R6 corpus positives (R1/R4 build zero candidates; R5 only wrong
ones) -> wiring yields +0 correct; and it wrong-commits 0016 -> 510, so wiring
it wholesale is a live wrong=0 regression the disagreement rule does not catch.
So WIRING and COMPOSITION are the same task: composer production per shape, each
behind a structural promotion gate (extract_target + target_units, not
disagreement alone); the wire is the trivial last step. Core ratification
(freeze, design-of-record, gates, sealed-set measurement) unchanged.
Adds the first consumer of CORE's two built epistemic substrates — the
decode-state taxonomy (core/epistemic_state.py) and the risk-reward
reliability gate (core/reliability_gate/, ADR-0175) — beginning to close
the LABEL-ONLY consumption gap they sat behind.
Ships the scaffold only:
- core/response_governance/policy.py — ReachLevel (STRICT < APPROXIMATE <
EXTRAPOLATE < CREATIVE), ReachPolicy, govern_response (STRICT-only stub),
shape_surface (STRICT = identity transform; higher levels real but
unreachable in production), and the 9/5/1 EpistemicState partition.
- chat/runtime.py — cognition-path seam: the response surface now flows
through shape_surface(govern_response(...)). STRICT = identity, so the
path is byte-identical to pre-bridge. reach_level carried on ChatResponse.
- core/physics/identity.py — reach_level on TurnEvent (default "strict").
wrong==0 untouched: select_self_verified is NOT touched (ADR-0206 §5);
reach_level is NOT added to the telemetry JSONL dict, so pinned lane SHAs
stay byte-identical. Widening, SITUATE/FEED-BACK, the math-serving seam,
and the EVIDENCED reconcile are deferred to their own PRs.
Tests (tests/test_response_governance.py): STRICT-only contract over all
states x license x stakes, STRICT identity, live-wiring proof (forces
APPROXIMATE -> policy-sensitive surface), total+disjoint taxonomy
partition. Each fails loudly under the violation it guards.
Phase 2.3: the first inference rule + the wrong=0 mechanism for proofs.
- generate/proof_chain/rules.py: evaluate_modus_ponens / evaluate_proof_conclusion.
Proof-layer dispatch (Option B) over proposition FORMULAS via the canonicalizer;
never touches check_admissibility/_resolve_dep_units (proofs have no units).
Disagreement rule = the select_self_verified twin: pool ALL admissible single-step
MP derivations, require a unique canonical key == declared conclusion. Pooling (not
filter-to-declared-first) is the soundness mechanism.
- generate/logic_canonical.py: parse_top_implication (+ _unparse) — recovers an
implication's syntactic antecedent/consequent (the ROBDD form doesn't preserve it).
- Closed typed-reason set; the corpus's finer labels consolidate (6 disagreement
refuse-labels -> conclusion_disagreement; 4 antecedent-flavor labels ->
unestablished_antecedent — same redundancy, same mechanism-makes-one-distinction
principle).
- Honesty boundary (exact scope): guarantees a unique conclusion among SINGLE-STEP MP
over the premises, NOT "uniquely entailed" by all strategies.
Cross-check: all 24 GPT-5.5 adversarial corpus cases agree on OUTCOME against the real
rule (no rule bug / no corpus outcome-misread); reasons consolidate as above.
Mutation: filter-to-declared-first makes DISAGREE-007/010 wrongly admit -> pooling
tests fail (pooling load-bearing).
Drive-by fix (cleanup-as-you-find): merged ADR-0204 ProofNode.__post_init__ was
dedented to module level -> all ProofNode validation was silently DEAD (smoke skips
the dedicated test file; the smoke != full-suite hazard). Re-indented; validation
restored.
Additive (math lane untouched). Full binding-graph surface green; smoke 67.
Phase 2.2, structure only (no inference rule — modus_ponens is 2.3). Translates a
Proof into a SemanticSymbolicBindingGraph; the ADR-0203 acyclicity guard + ADR-0132
referential integrity fire at construction.
- generate/proof_chain/model.py: the one canonical proof input shape (ProofNode/Proof
+ proof_from_premises desugaring of the corpus premises/conclusion shape).
- generate/proof_chain/builder.py: build_proof_graph — node→symbol+equation;
canonical_key→rhs_canonical, depends_on→dependencies, rule→operation_kind;
premises = empty-deps/op="premise"; unit_proof=PROOF_NO_UNIT, admissibility="pending";
conclusion tracked as conclusion_symbol_id.
- tests: 9 — valid DAG (PC-MP-001 desugared) + multistep construct; PC-CYCLE-001
refuses THROUGH the real builder (circular_dependency); canonical_key round-trips
byte-identical + equivalent formulas share rhs_canonical; admissibility-dispatch
confirmation; self/dangling refusals; out-of-regime node refuses. Mutation-verified
(drop dep-wiring -> cycle admitted -> test fails).
Admissibility dispatch confirmed graceful on proof operation_kinds: unknown kinds
-> AdmissibilityError(unknown_operation), unitless deps -> unit_unbound; NEVER
misroutes into _check_additive. Named 2.3 constraint: check_admissibility runs
_resolve_dep_units before dispatch, so modus_ponens must bypass unit-resolution.
Open items named for 2.3 (ADR-0204): conclusion typing (BoundUnknown revisit),
semantic_role="unknown" (closed vocab has no "proposition"), unit_proof sentinel.
Additive (first consumer; math lane untouched). Full binding-graph surface green;
smoke 67. Honesty boundary: through 2.3, sound over declared atoms, not grounded in input.
GPT-5.5's independent corpus caught that the canonicalizer refused quantified/
predicate input only by accident (tokenizer chokes on '.'), not by design — a
by-luck-not-by-design refusal the wrong=0 discipline rejects. ADR-0202 §3 names a
typed `out_of_decidable_regime` refusal; the keystone emitted a generic grammar error.
- logic_canonical.py: LogicRegimeError(LogicError) + OUT_OF_DECIDABLE_REGIME;
_reject_out_of_regime_text (quantifier words forall/exists + symbols ∀/∃, pre-scan)
and _reject_out_of_regime_tokens (predicate-application ATOM-then-LPAREN), run BEFORE
the generic grammar error. Refusal only — no predicate/FOL capability added.
- logic_equivalence.py: typed regime branch (before the generic LogicError branch).
- tests: 43 total (10 new) — OOR refuses with typed reason; equivalence path too;
genuine grammar errors stay plain LogicError (no over-fire); `not (P)` not mistaken
for predicate application. Mutation-verified by-design (neuter -> falls through to
generic grammar error).
- ADR-0201.1: additive sub-ADR of 0201 (not an amendment; sub-number preserves the
landed ADR-0203 forward refs + phase-2 plan numbering). Honesty boundary load-bearing.
Corpus now 22/22 (PC-OOR-001/002 agree on the principled reason). Full canonicalizer
suite green; smoke 67 passed. modus_ponens rule-reasons remain deferred to ADR-0205 (2.3).
proof_chain phase 2.1: the acyclicity guard at the shared binding-graph
construction boundary, before phase 2.2 wiring can build a cyclic-capable structure.
- generate/binding_graph/acyclicity.py: pure find_cycle(adjacency) detector
(deterministic three-colour DFS; isolated, no model import).
- model.py __post_init__: builds {lhs: deps} adjacency over equations and raises
BindingGraphError(circular_dependency ...) on a cycle. Runs on every binding
graph (math + future proof) — illegal states unrepresentable for all consumers.
- tests/test_binding_graph_acyclicity.py: 17 tests (pure checker + construction
enforcement); mutation-verified non-vacuous.
- ADR-0203: new ADDITIVE invariant referencing ADR-0132 (not an amendment —
preserves the why-added-later history).
Math-lane regression proof: the only producer (math adapter) is acyclic by
construction (fresh result symbol per op, deps point backward); full
binding-graph + admissibility surface 392 green; guard refuses no existing graph.
Honesty boundary (load-bearing): through phase 2.3, proof_chain is SOUND OVER
DECLARED ATOMS, not grounded in recognized input (grounding is phase 2.4).
full binding-graph/admissibility surface: 392 passed. smoke: 67 passed.
Reconcile every artifact that asserted the (since auto-reverted) mathematics_logic
expert promotion to the live machine state. Determinism proven intact (Week-1a):
the digest divergence is genuine single-source evidence-drift (GSM8K coverage probe
3/47 -> 4/46 via #310/#488), not a non-determinism defect. ADR-0120's fail-closed
property fired as designed; CORE revoked its own expert claim.
History keeps receipts; current-state reconciles to truth:
- Regenerate expert_claims_math_v1_signed.json -> promote_admitted:false,
reviewer_signature_matches:false, digest 02f6d3c8.
- reviewers.yaml math_expert_claims: quarantine note; entry kept (mismatch-refusal
keeps firing); intentionally NOT re-signed.
- ADR-0120-math-expert-ledger-flip: dated valid-at/auto-reverted header note.
- README: "next gate" narrative -> built-attempted-reverted; refresh stale count.
- docs/decisions/README: revert note + ADR-0200 index row.
- 3 fail-closed tests (2 files): "is-expert" -> fail-closed-revert assertions.
Were RED on main; now green (30 passed).
No eval gate, threshold, or safety boundary changed.
Add docs/claims_ledger.md (every public claim -> in-repo evidence, with the
four GSM8K numbers separated and labeled) and ADR-0200 recording the
mathematics_logic expert fail-closed revert as designed behavior (proven
single-source evidence-drift; determinism intact).
Additive only: no existing claim, eval gate, or test is touched. The
review-gated reconciliation diffs (reviewers.yaml quarantine note, ADR-0120
header note, signed-JSON regen, README narrative, 3 test reconciliations) are
listed in ADR-0200 section 4 and await operator ratification.
The decisions README index table stopped at ADR-0183 then jumped to
ADR-0196, omitting every top-level ADR that landed in between plus the
three newest. PRs #513/#514/#515 added ADR-0197/0198/0199 files without
touching the index; the 0184-0195 gap predates them.
Adds 12 rows in numeric order with title + status pulled from each ADR
header. No content/runtime change; pure index backfill.
- files-vs-index drift check: now empty (was 12)
- all 12 new link targets verified to resolve
Establishes the canonical Delta-CRDT reference contract so a future native
(Rust/Zig) backend is gate-G1-eligible under ADR-0196 — the ZC-0 'contract
pinning' slice. No Zig code; ZC-1+ remains gated at G2.
- vault/crdt.py: canonical Python reference (ArenaEntry, Delta, LocalArena,
merge_kernel, canonical_bytes, delta_hash). Pure content law — content-
addressed by IEEE-754 bits then provenance; no normalization, no versor
closure, no global Vault writes.
- ZC-0 contract tests (semilattice C-1..C-5; content ordering / signed-zero /
NaN bit-addressing; C-7 no-global-write) — all failable (mutation-checked:
no-dedup breaks C3/C5, arrival-order breaks C1).
- Golden fixture corpus (tests/fixtures/crdt/) regenerated deterministically
from the reference; single source of truth also emits the Rust expected hex.
- core-rs: Delta::canonical_bytes + test_crdt_hash_parity.rs proving Rust
produces byte-identical canonical_bytes to the Python reference.
- ADR-0180 -> Accepted: locked contract, byte layout, obligation map, and the
explicit boundary that no Zig is authorized.
Verification: ZC-0 21 passed, Rust arena+parity 16 passed, architectural
invariants 40 passed, smoke 67 passed. Serving frozen: 7/8 lane SHAs match;
the public_demo miss is a pre-existing wall-clock budget overrun (ADR-0099,
~46-48s > 30s) reproduced identically on clean main — environmental.
Bring the docs/zig/** decision package and README 'Native Substrate
Direction' section into main, and record ADR-0196 (Accepted) as the
binding ratification.
The doctrine is explicitly NOT a wholesale Zig rewrite. It establishes a
ring architecture (Python = semantic source of truth; Rust = incumbent
algebra backend; Zig = Ring 1 native-substrate candidate only) and the
G0-G8 adoption gate ladder. Zig may enter only by clearing gates against
a locked reference contract; default-by-availability is forbidden.
ADR-0196 forward-references ADR-0180 as the first G1 instantiation (the
CRDT contract lock / ZC-0 slice). No Zig code is authorized.
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).
