classify_r3 normalizes the rate reader into a ComprehensionAttempt; route_setup now tries R1/R2/R3 (same exactly-one-setup_correct rule); the pass manager solves+verifies a routed r3_rate setup (solve_rate + reused answer-choice verifier); unsupported_temporal_state dropped from the unsupported-family set so temporal_state -> REFUSED_KNOWN_BOUNDARY. Organ gains r3_rate.
Terminal matrix (verified): 6 solved->SOLVED_VERIFIED; rate_unit_mismatch+combined_rates->PROPOSAL_EMITTED(unsupported_rate_duration); non_integer/missing_time/temporal->REFUSED_KNOWN_BOUNDARY; exactly 2 proposals (the rate-like gaps only).
REGRESSION CAUGHT+FIXED: R3's reader returned missing_rate (a substantive boundary) on non-rate R2 text, blocking r2-011's legitimate missing_total_count proposal via boundary-first. Fix: missing_rate only when a duration is present; else not_rate_shaped -> input_shape (not-my-domain) — same discipline as the N6 category_pair_not_found fix. r2-011 proposes again; R1/R2 unaffected. R1 7/0/3, 15-case 15/0/0, R2 10/0/0, R3 8/0/0 unchanged; off-serving; 121-test smoke green incl. invariants + idle contract suites.
docs/analysis/r3-rate-inventory-ledger: R3 v1 state (reader 8/0/0 + 4 refused -> answers 6/0/6; gold 12/12), per-fixture table, the compound-unit substrate, covered families + R3.2/R3.3 deferrals.
core/comprehension_attempt/failure_family.py: makes unsupported_rate_duration REACHABLE as a growth surface (proposal_allowed) mapping rate_unit_mismatch + combined_rates — both emitted ONLY after a rate clause is recognized, so always rate-like (anti-over-propose discipline, same as the N6 fix). missing_rate/time/quantity -> rate_underdetermined boundary; temporal_state -> unsupported_temporal_state boundary (clock detector can fire on non-rate text, NOT a safe growth surface); query_target_unrecognized/no_query -> input_shape. Owner gains 'r3'. 107-test smoke green incl. partition + contemplation + invariants; R1 7/0/3 + R2 10/0/3 unchanged; off-serving.
generate/rate_comprehension/solver.py: solve_rate computes the one unknown — quantity=rate×time (always integer), rate=quantity÷time, time=quantity÷rate (exact division or REFUSE non_integer_solution, never rounds). Confirms compound-unit composition via the R3a algebra (defensive; a RateProblem's units compose by construction). answer_unit gives the answer's unit. No floats.
Ties to the gold: solves all 6 solved fixtures to gold; refuses both solver_refuses with non_integer_solution. Meaningful-fail: 100÷3 refuses (not 33), 99÷3=33. Off-serving. 5 tests.
generate/rate_comprehension/units.py: BaseUnit + RateUnit (numerator/denominator) + the three single-rate compositions — rate_times_time (mile/hour × hour = mile; refuses mile/hour × minute), rate_from_quantity_over_time (mile ÷ hour = mile/hour), time_from_quantity_over_rate (mile ÷ mile/hour = hour; refuses dollar ÷ mile/hour). A non-composing op raises UnitError (the wrong=0 dimensional gate), never fabricates a unit.
Deliberately tiny: bare-name units, no generic dimensional universe, no semantic unit-class typing, no unit conversion, no compound-of-compound. Fresh off-serving organ (generate/rate_comprehension/). 10 tests incl. all three refusals + consistent composition.
Pins the boundary: existing idle_tick remains the only idle_tick; proposal review is read-only; NOT L10 always-on heartbeat; does not advance learning; only surfaces review obligations. Documents how IT-b works (gate, sub-pass, failure-isolation, no-did_work) and that R3 (rates/time/state) is next.
core/config.py: review_pending_proposals: bool = False (opt-in, mirrors consolidate_determinations). chat/runtime.py: IdleTickResult gains an additive optional proposal_review field; idle_tick runs a READ-ONLY sub-pass (after consolidation, gated) that surfaces core.proposal_review.idle_summary(). It does NOT set did_work / checkpoint / mutate / ratify / mount / modify readers; a reporter exception is CAPTURED (safe=False, errors=('proposal_review_failed:<type>',)), never propagated.
docs/runtime_contracts.md documents the sub-pass + field (required for runtime-surface changes). Contract tests: default-off -> proposal_review None (existing shape preserved); enabled -> summary surfaced; exception captured not propagated; read-only review never checkpoints; other passes unperturbed. 91-test smoke green incl. architectural invariants + both existing idle contract suites. Existing idle_tick remains the only idle_tick; NOT L10 always-on.
core/proposal_review/summary.py: idle_summary(root=None) -> ProposalReviewIdleSummary composes the landed scan/build_report/dry_check into one JSON-safe primitives-only value (safe, total, review_needed, malformed, by_family tuple-of-pairs, errors). Pure read — no mutation, no clock, no runtime touch. errors carries the dry-check violations (why not safe); IT-b reuses it for a captured reporter exception. 7 tests incl. read-only + deterministic + json-serializable.
Documents the boundary: observes + reports + verifies; never advances teaching / ratifies / mounts / modifies readers / affects serving. ChatRuntime.idle_tick remains the only idle_tick (different stream, different verb). A future PR may call this reporter from idle_tick as a read-only sub-pass. L10-adjacent, NOT L10; the always-on heartbeat remains separate/unbuilt and is not claimed here.
core/proposal_review/safety.py: dry_check INDEPENDENTLY verifies (without trusting the emitter) that every artifact is inert — status==proposal_only, mounted==false, requires_review==true, content-address consistent (filename == sha256(family:problem_text_sha256)), path under the sink, no malformed (unverifiable) file — and that no serving-path module reads the sink. Any failure is a violation.
__main__.py: python -m core.proposal_review [comprehension-failures] [--json] [--root] — read-only report + dry-check; exit 0 iff safe. Mutates nothing. 8 tests, each safety assertion proven meaningful-fail; serving-unconsumed verified on the real tree.
core/proposal_review/report.py: build_report projects scan results into a deterministic summary — total pending, counts by failure_family + by status (sorted), malformed count, review-needed list (sorted by content hash). report_json (sort_keys) + report_text. Deterministic given sink contents; no clock.
Time-based oldest/newest is intentionally OMITTED: the artifacts are content-addressed with no timestamp (the emitter is clock-free for idempotence), so an honest temporal order isn't in the data — only non-deterministic filesystem mtime, which would break report determinism. 5 tests.
core/proposal_review/{model,scan}.py: scan reads teaching/proposals/comprehension_failures/*.json into typed PendingProposal records (path, content_hash, failure_family, status, mounted, requires_review, problem_text_sha256, observed_attempts); any unparseable file becomes a MalformedArtifact (never silently dropped). Pure read — never writes/moves/deletes; deterministic (sorted by path); missing sink -> empty. The sink path is computed independently of the emitter (the reporter verifies the contract, doesn't import the writer).
Read-only reporter, NOT an idle_tick (ChatRuntime.idle_tick stays the only one), NOT L10. 4 tests incl. read-only invariant + malformed flagging.
generate/contemplation/{findings,pass_manager}.py: a single bounded pass — route (N3) -> classify+enrich (N4) -> terminal -> maybe emit proposal-only (N5). No loops/daemon/L10. Seven terminals: SOLVED_VERIFIED / REFUSED_KNOWN_BOUNDARY / REFUSED_UNSUPPORTED_FAMILY / CONTRADICTION_DETECTED / PROPOSAL_EMITTED / AMBIGUOUS_ORGAN / NO_PROGRESS. R2 solved+verified end-to-end; R1 routed setup is SOLVED_VERIFIED (numeric answer stays the eval lane in v0).
Hazard found+fixed: N6 exposed that category_pair_not_found fires on ANY non-R2 text, so mapping it to a growth surface made gibberish falsely PROPOSAL_EMITTED. Reclassified it to input_shape and made missing_category_pair reserved — only the PRECISE missing_total_count/missing_weighted_total remain reachable growth surfaces. Classification is boundary-first (input_shape non-blocking), so a problem one organ recognizes as a substantive boundary never proposes against the other's broad refusal.
Acceptance proven: known correct refusal -> no proposal; unsupported gap -> proposal-only artifact (exactly the 2 missing_* gaps over the gold); answer-key contradiction -> CONTRADICTION_DETECTED; organ conflict -> AMBIGUOUS_ORGAN. 188 tests green incl. architectural invariants; R1 7/0/3 + R2 reader 10/0/0 unchanged; off-serving.
core/comprehension_attempt/proposal.py: emit_proposal writes a content-addressed teaching/proposals/comprehension_failures/<hash>.json ONLY for growth-surface families (proposal_allowed). Deliberately toothless: status always proposal_only, mounted always false, requires_review always true (enforced in __post_init__); the problem text is hashed (sha256), never stored; filename = sha256(family:text_sha) so the same failure is idempotent.
No proposal for a correct wrong=0 boundary. Serving never reads the sink (scanned: generate/stream, field/propagate, vault/store, generate/derivation, core/reliability_gate). Routes through the existing proposal-only flywheel (ADR-0055/0056/0057), never a parallel correction path. README pins the contract. 6 tests.
core/comprehension_attempt/failure_family.py: partitions every reachable organ refusal reason (R1 reader/admissibility, R2 reader/solver/answer-choice) into a named FailureFamily declaring owner / must_remain_refused / proposal_allowed / safe_next_action / proposal_target. family_for_reason is total + unambiguous (partition asserted by test); enrich_family resolves an attempt's family.
Only THREE families are growth surfaces (proposal_allowed=True): the R2 missing_category_pair / missing_total_count / missing_weighted_total gaps. All other reasons are correct wrong=0 boundaries (refuse, no proposal) — correct refusal != missing capability. answer_key_contradiction is a report verdict (no reason). Reserved R3 families forward-declared. 9 tests incl. whole-surface coverage + partition.
core/comprehension_attempt/router.py: route_setup tries R1 then R2, collects both attempts, and selects a setup ONLY when exactly one organ admits one. Zero->all_refused; >=2 with differing signatures->ambiguous (refuse, never pick); cross-organ signatures never coincide so two admitting organs always resolve to ambiguous. No scoring, no solving.
wrong=0 invariant asserted: every routed R2 setup is byte-equal to the independent gold signature. Each gold problem routes to exactly its owning organ (R2 well-formed->r2; R1 admitted->r1; refused->all_refused); none is ambiguous. 4 router tests.
core/comprehension_attempt/{model,classify}.py: a small frozen ComprehensionAttempt (organ, outcome, case_id, refusal_reason, family, setup_signature, answer, evidence) and classify_r1/classify_r2 that normalize each organ's heterogeneous output (typed setup | Refusal) into a uniform produce-mode setup outcome — setup_refused (with the organ's reason) or setup_correct (with a deterministic inline signature).
No solving, no gold comparison, no evals import (signatures computed inline) — runtime never depends on the harness. Ties to both gold corpora: R2 solved/solver_refuses->setup_correct, reader_refuses->setup_refused with the gold reason; R1 7 admitted / 3 refused. family left None (resolved by the N4 registry). 6 tests.
Post-merge baseline for the contemplation batch: R1 7/0/3, R2 reader 10/0/0, gold 13/13, serving unchanged. Enumerates the full typed refusal surface across both organs (R1 reader/admissibility, R2 reader/solver/answer-choice) and a first-pass cross-organ failure-family taxonomy with must_remain_refused / proposal_allowed / owner — the table N4 will make executable. Repeats the load-bearing distinction: correct refusal != missing capability.
Per review: (H1) exactly-two-category binding already has its meaningful-fail twin; (H2) a weighted total whose unit does not match the coefficient unit refuses missing_weighted_total (never a cross-unit sum); (H3) answer-choice ties EXACTLY or refuses no_matching_option (never nearest). All three were already handled by construction; these pin them so they stay handled.
Records the final R2 v1 state: reader setup_correct 10 / setup_wrong 0 + 3 correct reader-refusals; 7 solved answers + 3 solver-refused + 3 reader-refused; gold 13/13. Per-fixture table, the four wrong=0 gates, the reader-vs-solver division of labor (equal coefficients are a solver refusal, not a reader one), covered families, and R3 deferrals. R1 7/0/3 and 15-case 15/0/0 unchanged.
generate/answer_choices/{parse,verify}.py: parse_options normalizes {label:value} to {label:int} (int or single-integer string; ambiguous/empty refuse). verify_answer_choice ties a PROVEN value to exactly one option -> ChoiceVerdict(consistent); a disagreeing key -> ChoiceVerdict(contradiction) naming both the consistent answer and the wrong key (truth discipline, not a refusal). Refuses no_matching_option / ambiguous_options / unknown_provided_label.
End-to-end with C2 gold + C3 solver: every solved fixture solves, ties to its labeled answer, confirms consistent. Off-serving. 9 tests incl. contradiction-flag meaningful-fail.
generate/constraint_comprehension/solver.py: solve_two_var_linear (order-independent 2x2 integer Cramer's rule over typed constraints), the solve_two_var_count_weight specialization, and solve/answer_constraint_problem driving it from a ConstraintProblem. Four typed refusals: indistinguishable_weights (det==0), non_integer_solution (numer%det!=0, never rounds), negative_solution, verification_failed (identity backstop).
Ties to the C2 gold: solves all 7 solved fixtures to their gold value and refuses all 3 solver_refuses fixtures with EXACTLY the gold-claimed reason (the gold's reason is now solver-verified, not just annotation). Per-refusal meaningful-fail + positive re-substitution. Off-serving. 9 tests.
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.
r1-07 now reads setup-correct and answers 6 — 'Nia has 9 more beads than Omar. Nia has 15. -> Omar = 6'. The reader binds the unknown base's unit FROM the relation when its subject is a known fact and its referent is the otherwise-ungrounded query target, so the equation is admissible; the answer oracle reverse-solves it (PR-7a). Bounded: single base == query target (no chains), known subject value, base not otherwise grounded, <=1 inverse (multiple_inverse_bases else), never over times/divide.
R1 setup 6/0/4 -> 7/0/3; R1 answers -> 7 correct / 0 wrong; 15-case 15/0/0; setup_wrong stays 0. Off-serving. Refreshes the R1 ledger to 7/0/3 (R1 closed; the 3 remaining refusals are wrong=0 boundaries).
