Mapper required only that total include {a,b}; rebuild-from-binding then
dropped third entities and could emit a certified wrong answer (e.g. 15
instead of 115). Require exact total part-set {a,b}, refuse any contain
outside reference a, and agree with original-graph classical solve before
emit. Adds multi-entity refuse unit tests.
ADR-0252 §5 geometric SME is NO-GO; this is Track B Increment 1.
Adds role-predicate conversion from MathProblemGraph, S1 canonical skeleton,
blind symbolic mapper (match/refuse + binding), and solve via classical
verify plus multi-register certificate. Research report and holdout measures
included. Serving reader unchanged; no S2–S4 generalization.
Discharges Josh's Q3 ruling: defer the q:difference capability, close the
hazard now. _pattern_b_comparative_candidates is inert by construction
(returns []), so 'how many more/fewer … than …' questions refuse end-to-end
even when every statement injects cleanly. This suite LOCKS that so a future
D.5 wiring cannot reopen the guessed-direction hole without positively
determining the more/fewer direction. Verified inert-safe by 5 direct tests.
Two shapes (PR ruling) pinned compiler-side with tests — reader direction errors
surface as refusals, never wrongs:
- Chained / ordering: a compare whose reference is neither seeded nor
already-defined at that point refuses (compare_reference_not_a_register).
Pinned explicitly with a test (story order != dependency order), not left to
fall out of existing checks.
- Inverse mis-direction: a compare that would DEFINE an already-known (seeded or
earlier-defined) register refuses (compare_redefines_register) — the reader
must bind the unknown side as the target with a fraction factor; the compiler
never overwrites a known quantity.
The 5 real compare cases still solve wrong=0. 27/27 (2 new guards + 25).

Cross-register affine definition: actor := factor x reference. Reads the
reference register's field STATE, dilates by -ln(factor), writes the actor.
Reuses quantity_kernel + the multi-register framework + the 2b summation.
Amendments (PR #76):
1. Summation registers-driven: MultiRegisterProgram.register_order (seed order
then compare-defined order); execute sums ALL registers in that order, so a
compare-DEFINED register (no seed) is included in totals. compile validates
the answer target AFTER ops (a concrete unknown may be compare-defined) and
propagates the defined register's unit from the reference.
2. Compare record: RegisterTurn.reference; MultiRegisterRecord.source_entity
(the reference) + operand_source_digest (reference state digest), both
CONDITIONAL in the payload so affine/transfer/summation record digests are
byte-identical to before compare. Re-verification reconstructs the source
register from records alone.
Compare CREATES a quantity (not a transfer) -> exempt from the conservation pin.
fraction direction folded in (factor < 1). compare_additive is a later increment
(refused). Real official data: the 5 compare parses the reader emits today now

Instrument: the arithmetic-chain domain now routes each real GSM8K dev case to
Tier-1 (single-accumulator) or Tier-2 (multi-register / summation) and compares
the corridor to a symbolic fold of the SAME compiled program. Recorded coverage
moves 26/50 -> 50/50, 0 refused, PARITY (wrong=0) — the measurement catching up
to the capability. Scope note corrected (full holdout closed; remaining frontier
= derived-operand transfers + non-affine kinds + >5-atom deduction, all 0 on this
holdout). Updated the ADR-0249 instrument test pins (26->50, refused 24->0).
ADR-0250 (Status Proposed, no self-Accept; §10 ruling awaits Shay) + acceptance

A total-like unknown (unknown.entity is None, 'how many altogether') is no longer
refused — it compiles to a certified summation over all registers (ruling #1:
summation stays in the substrate). The distinction is the explicit typed signal
(None entity), not an inferred op-sequence pattern.
Each addition is a certified relaxation turn; the operand is the decode of a
certified register state, bound by operand_source_digest (= that state's
psi_digest convention). Deterministic re-execution reproduces the state and its
decode, so the Python layer cannot tamper with the intermediate value — the
chain-of-custody design (Shay's Q), now with no trusted-Python assumption.
operand_source_digest is added conditionally to the record payload, so
non-summation (T2a) record digests are unchanged.
Capstone: Tier-1 (26) + T2a single-entity (18) + summation (6) = full GSM8K dev
holdout 50/50, wrong=0. The reader->Hamiltonian compiler now solves the entire
dev holdout by chained certified relaxation, zero wrong answers.

Multi-entity arithmetic as a product of independent conformal lines: one
register (null point) per entity; per-register affine ops reuse Tier-1 transport;
transfer = coupled T-k/T+k on disjoint registers (exact by P1 per-line exactness).
Transactional atomicity: immutable register mapping, prepare->validate->commit —
both candidate states relaxed into locals, validated (both converged AND
conservation), then a NEW mapping only on full success. Failure anywhere = new
mapping never built, original untouched (no partial mutation, no rollback); abort
raises typed MultiRegisterError and aborts the whole program (fail-closed).
Conservation pin = hard-reject, RELATIVE (|after-before| <= rtol*max(1,|before|)):
decoded-quantity error scales with magnitude (found via gma-050 chaining to 222),
so absolute tol is wrong; relative still catches real violations (off by whole k).
Content-addressed MultiRegisterRecord chain carries entity + certificate id +
step, never a decoded value; GENESIS-linked; verify_multi_register_chain mirrors
verify_replay_chain. Tier-2a fail-closed taxonomy: total-unknown (needs summation

unknown endpoints. Off-serving (A-04).

Wires the turn-program executor into the generalized-lift instrument and
measures it against the REAL GSM8K dev holdout (evals/gsm8k_math/dev, never the
templated cases), using each problem's ground_truth_graph. Baseline is a
symbolic fold of the SAME compiled turn program: both paths consume identical
problems, the corridor relaxes each step, the baseline folds it numerically.
Honest result on the sealed 50-case dev holdout: 26 problems are Tier-1 affine
single-accumulator ingestible and solved wrong=0; the corridor matches the
symbolic fold on every one (PARITY, delta=0) — the field matches arithmetic, it
does not beat it, so this is real-holdout coverage, NOT a manufactured lift. The
24 refused (all not_single_accumulator / multi-entity) are the recorded Tier-2
frontier, never silently dropped.
Corrects the now-stale scope-limitation note ('no reader-to-Hamiltonian compiler
exists…') — the compiler exists as of this arc; the note now records real-data
Tier-1 coverage and the multi-entity frontier. wrong_zero_guard_held extended to
bind both exact-regime domains (deductive flagship + arithmetic).

The composition frontier: multi-step arithmetic compiled from a MathProblemGraph
into an ordered turn program (one affine relation-well per step) and executed as
a chain of certified relaxation turns. The accumulator flows turn-to-turn as a
field STATE, decoded only once at the end (anti-hollow) — the substrate performs
every step and composition depth lives in the certified chain, not matrix size.
Verified: ((5+3)*2)-4=12, (10/2+7)*3=36, (100-40)/4=15, all turns
ground_state_certified.
Ring-2 correction (verified in-tree): run_residual_protocol is zero-bound /
non-mutating — stage-5 recertification refuses if the witness moved — so it
certifies a FIXED state's admissibility, not a state TRANSITION. Arithmetic turns
mutate. So the per-turn certificate is the relaxation's own RelaxationCertificate,
and the tamper-evident SEQUENCE is recorded with the Ring-2 chain-integrity
PATTERN (content-addressed TurnRecord, GENESIS-linked, verify_turn_chain mirrors
verify_replay_chain) rather than forcing mutating turns through the zero-bound
protocol. Turn records carry certificate ids + step provenance, never a decoded
value; tamper on any non-terminal record breaks the successor link.
Tier-1 (ruling #1): single-accumulator add/subtract/multiply/divide, constant
Quantity operands, positive scale. Multi-entity/transfer/rate/comparison/
fraction/partition/non-positive-scale/unit-mismatch refused and recorded, not
silently dropped. Off-serving (A-04).

Closes the deduction leg: propositional formula strings (as emitted by
meaning_graph.to_deductive_logic, or any logic_canonical-parseable syntax) →
corridor CNF PropositionalProblem + query Clause, consumable by
propositional_entails.
Structural, not truth-table (spike §4.1): reuses the production ROBDD parser
(generate.logic_canonical — never re-implemented) for the AST, then the standard
sound rewrite — eliminate iff/implies, NNF, distribute OR over AND — with
constant folding, tautological-clause elimination, and a clause budget. The
converter never enumerates assignments and never decides entailment; that stays
the corridor's job.
Soundness proved against the ROBDD oracle: for a 14-formula panel, the compiled
CNF rendered back to a formula has the same canonicalize() identity as the
source. End-to-end entailment through propositional_entails agrees with the
ROBDD gold (evaluate_entailment) wrong=0 on consistent premises; ex-falso
handled per the corridor's own contract (entailed + satisfiable_premises=False,
where the ROBDD path returns REFUSED for inconsistent premises).
Fail-closed: conjunctive/constant queries, formulas reducing to false, and CNF
budget refuse with typed CnfCompileError; >5 atoms surfaces the corridor's
HamiltonianCompileError(atom_count_out_of_range); out-of-regime propagates
LogicRegimeError. Off-serving (A-04), import-guard pinned.

Compiles output = scale*input + offset (Tier-1: scale > 0) into a quadratic-well
constraint Hamiltonian, reusing the ratified compile_quadratic_well +
HamiltonianCompileError contracts.
Anti-hollow (spike §4.1): the compiler never evaluates scale*input+offset in
Python — it embeds the input (P1) and applies the relation's structure as
versor operators (dilator for scale, translator for offset), so the substrate's
geometric product performs the arithmetic. The returned well is a bare
projector carrying no answer and no coefficients (metadata = {curvature,
target_digest} only); relaxation + projective readback recover the output.
Verified end-to-end: multiply/add/subtract/divide/negative-input all decode
exactly; ablation confirms the start decodes to the input and only the relaxed
state to the answer.
Fail-closed on non-positive scale (outside positive-dilation Tier-1) and

Rings 2 and 3 of the ADR-0246 preflight §9, built exactly as the brief bounds
them. ADR-0247 + ADR-0248 both **Proposed** — no self-Accept.
Ring 2 (core/ports/residual_protocol.py — ADR-0247):
the 7-stage shared control grammar: witness -> typed residual decomposition
-> permitted operator selection -> bounded operation or abstention ->
re-certification -> action decision -> append-only replay record.
Port-agnostic (no registry, no unified scheduler — §7 non-goal #2 honored);
v1 operators are ZERO-BOUND only (nonzero fails closed — no-silent-correction
doctrine); unaccounted residual fails closed; re-certification RAISES on
witness drift during a zero-bound pass; replay chain is append-only,
full-SHA-256 content-addressed, tamper-evident (verify_replay_chain).
NOTE: named core/ports/ because core/protocol/ is the existing CTP v0 wire
format (collision checked before naming).
Ring 2 adapters (core/ports/adapters.py): IdentityPort (ADR-0246 grade-1
geometry; typed channels travel IN the witness so decompose is a pure
re-shaping, no hidden state; admit = evaluate_admission, single source of
truth) + PrecisionPort (ADR-0244 §2.5 cast transport; ServingState subjects)
— two genuinely non-identical native geometries + a synthetic third port
proving grammar agnosticism.
Ring 3 (core/ports/integrity_handoff.py — ADR-0248):
the coordination seam ('Integrity coordinates handoffs; it does not replace
content-bearing cognition'): fuses Ring-2 port decisions + existing
EpistemicState/NormativeClearance into content-free proceed/hedge/abstain
(conjunctive, strongest-restriction-wins; fail-closed on missing/invalid

AUDIT (Step 1) — VERDICT PASS. Re-derived A(F)/d_orth/d_stab/typed channels from
§3.1/3.2/3.6 independently: BIT-EXACT vs impl (0.00e+00). Confirmed in code (not
just comments): H_id={I} locked (singleton hardcoded, no enlargement path); path
composes lawful only, refused=break marker, never raw, never soft-I; no §7 scope
creep; serve byte-identity. Finding F1 (doc, not bug): composition uses the raw
CERTIFIED action (required for §6.2 accumulation, else A_path≡I detects nothing) —
now documented for ADR ratification.
HARDENING (Step 2):

gains action_surface_active/d_orth/d_stab (legacy defaults). Flag-off is
byte-identical (D4 gate surfaces green unchanged; smoke 176 post-wiring).
§6.3 DISCRIMINATION REPORT (evals/adr_0246_discrimination) — HONEST numbers:
benign pass 0.00, false refusal 1.00, adversarial detect 1.00, control pass
1.00; d_stab AUC 0.375 (95% CI [0.15,0.62]) — BELOW chance. Benign cognition
sits ~18x farther from the frame (mean d_stab 27.8) than the attacks (1.55).
The gate refuses everything and does NOT discriminate; must stay off; usable
separation needs the §11 grounding work, not threshold tuning. Claims language
enforced: 'lawfulness relative to the declared frozen frame', NOT 'semantic

Close the two missing §3 acceptance legs. tests/test_adr_0245_acceptance_gate.py:
- ≥10× f32 speedup: the Rust core_rs.geometric_product f32 fast path vs the pure
Python kernel. Rust-guarded (skips with reason where core_rs is unbuilt);
includes a parity sanity check so the speedup can't come from skipped work.
Measured on Apple M-series this run: rust 2.86 us/op vs python 1340 us/op =
467× (assert a conservative ≥10× for CI timing robustness).
- _content_id collision-resistance: full 256-bit digest (len 64, not 16-hex),
type/structure-faithful (int≠str, bool≠int, nested-sensitive, key-order-
invariant), fails closed on non-serializable input (no default=str collapse);
_psi_digest full + sub-epsilon sensitive + deterministic.
- coverage manifest test maps all four §3 legs (parity f64/f32, 0-LAPACK-on-
repeat, f32 speedup, collision) to their home test files.
The other two legs (parity, 0-LAPACK) were already green; this makes the §3 gate

Pin the load-bearing §2.10 claim, not just the structure. The existing
test_adr_0242_fibonacci_word.py covers recurrence/length/sovereignty; §2.10's
actual promise is "reduce harmonic phase-locking," which comes from the Fibonacci
word's Sturmian properties. tests/test_adr_0244_scheduler_quasiperiodicity.py (32
cases) pins:
- golden-ratio letter density (count(A)=F_n, count(B)=F_{n-1}; A/B → φ) — a
maximally-irrational duty cycle resists resonance with periodic cadences;
- no harmonic clustering (no "BB", no "AAA") — neither action forms a locally
periodic burst;
- aperiodicity (no period p ≤ |W|/2) — genuinely quasi-periodic, not a disguised
periodic schedule.
A future refactor to a periodic schedule would pass the structure tests but fail
these. Audit-only; no production change (the module already satisfies the spec).
Verified: 32 new cases pass. Full smoke + fast lane at Phase 5 close.
The §2.9 low-discrepancy mode allocator concern is satisfied by construction, so
the deliverable is a proof, not a bolt-on wire. tests/test_adr_0244_mode_order_

projection onto span(modes); projection onto a span is invariant to the order
of the spanning set. Verified: energy + residual identical across mode
insertion permutations to ~1e-15 (machine epsilon; nonzero-residual probe too).
- atlas_packing.golden_angle_pack places mode k at a deterministic golden-angle
coordinate from ordinal k alone (ALLOCATOR_VERSION reconstructible) — layout is
order-independent by construction; a prefix of a larger pack is the same modes.
Wiring the allocator into the durable content-seal path would be a category
mismatch (that path seals content versors at their own ψ, not allocator
positions). Test-only; no production change.

The single explicit, fail-closed f64→f32 down-cast at the certified lifecycle
egress. serving_cast(psi_steady, certificate, verdict) -> ServingState in
core/physics/cognitive_lifecycle.py:
- Casts ONLY a state that validates as a finite 32-vector, matches its
certificate psi_digest, and was verdict.admitted — an uncertified, refused, or
digest-mismatched state is never served.
- Precision-checks the f32 result (cast_error = max|f64-f32|, unit norm) and
fails closed on an f32 precision cliff (f32_precision_insufficient) rather than
serving a silently-degraded state.
- Keeps f64 as the source of truth: psi_steady and the psi_digest content-address
chain are untouched; ServingState carries provenance back (source_psi_digest,
certificate_id, measured cast_error) for audit. f64 stays inside
relaxation/eigendecomp — this is the one place f32 appears (ADR-0245 §2.2
mechanical sympathy).
Satisfies both ADR-0244 §2.5 and ADR-0245 §2.2 (one contract, two ADRs). Measured
on a real certified outcome: cast_error ~1.2e-8, unit_norm_f32 ~0.99999998.

decoupled from alignment_threshold (legacy path + hedge bands keep it).
2. The same bound does NOT separate real live traffic. Measured on the engine,
benign final_state.F versors do not preserve span(e1,e2,e3): leakage
0.14–0.81 (mean 0.55), self-align to −0.52, 12/13 benign false-refused at
γ*, best balanced error 0.346. The calibration certifies
flag_flip_authorized=False → identity_wave_gate stays OFF.
Root cause: the shipped value axes (truthfulness=e1, coherence=e2,
reverence=e3) are nominal basis vectors, not dynamically-preserved eigenmodes;
the field evolution gives the identity subspace no dynamical anchoring. The fix
is the ADR-0246 induced-identity-action programme (preflight brief merged). The
wave gate is validated, correctly-off scaffolding — not a live gate. A slow
drift-guard test canaries any future engine change that starts preserving
identity.
Off-serving (evals/ + tests); flag-off byte-identity preserved. ADR §4a +

evals/adr_0244_identity_gate/ (off-serving, deterministic) measures, honestly:
does the operator-preservation wave gate add identity-attack detection value
the geometry-blind legacy path cannot?
Runs a controlled panel through both paths:
- aligned: small rotations WITHIN the value subspace span(e1,e2,e3) — a
legitimate transformation that preserves the value axes;
- attack: versors that geometrically violate identity — π-rotations that
INVERT a value axis (caught by signed self-alignment ≈ −1), and
rotations/boosts that TILT a value axis toward an alien dimension e4/e5
(caught by the subspace-leakage fraction).
Measured result (pinned by tests/test_adr_0244_identity_gate_eval.py):
- the wave gate separates the panels — every aligned versor admitted, every
attack flagged, min_attack_signal 0.35 > max_aligned_leakage 0.0;
- the two measures are non-redundant (inversion: ~0 leakage but −1 alignment);
- wave adds detection value 6-vs-0 over the legacy path, which never reads
the versor geometry and flags none of these geometric attacks.
Honest scope caveat baked into the artifact + docstring: this is detection
value on the geometric signal the gate is DESIGNED to catch. Whether real
paraphrased injections induce such versor geometry through the live encoder,
and whether the placeholder value axes (e1/e2/e3) are the right identity
directions, is empirical (governance annotation item 6) and is the subject of
D4 Phase 3 (γ_id calibration). The flag stays OFF until that is evidenced.

Additive-only (new evals/ package + test); no core/chat/algebra changes.
Wires the ADR-0244 §2.2 wave gate into the live turn loop behind a new
opt-in flag, byte-identical when off, plus a normalization fix found in
integration.
core/config.py: RuntimeConfig.identity_wave_gate (bool = False). OFF by
default — the leakage threshold is provisional (reuses alignment_threshold)
until calibrated to gamma_id in Phase 3, and flag-off is byte-identical to
the pre-ADR-0244 advisory path.
chat/runtime.py (main chat() path, two flag-gated touches):
- at the identity check, pass wave_field=result.final_state.F when the
flag is on (so hedging + telemetry both use the wave score); None when
off -> legacy scalar-L2 path.
- after the safety/ethics verdicts exist, intersect their violated
boundaries with the manifold's committed boundary_ids (supplement via
dataclasses.replace) and fold a fail-closed geometric IdentityGateRefusal
into the typed refusal surface (TYPED_REFUSAL_PREFIX). refusal_emitted is
derived once, after the block, preserving the (surface is not None) <=>
emitted invariant.
chat/telemetry.py: serialize_turn_event emits the wave-gate keys
(identity_wave_mode / _leakage_norm / _min_self_alignment /
_boundary_violations) only when identity_score.wave_mode_active — so the
wire format is byte-identical when the gate is off.
core/physics/identity_manifold.py — NORMALIZATION FIX (found in
integration): the live versor carries boost (e5) components, and a boost is
a unit versor (R R~ = 1) that does NOT preserve the Euclidean coefficient
norm, so ‖R a_i R~‖ > 1 and the un-normalized leakage/self-alignment ran
past their ranges (measured leakage 5.16, self_align -4.75 on a real turn).
axis_response now normalizes each measure by the rotated-axis magnitude:
leakage is a fraction in [0,1], self_align a signed cosine in [-1,1]. For a
norm-preserving spatial rotor the rotated axis is unit and normalization is
a no-op (Phase 1 results unchanged). §4a updated to match; new boost test
pins bounded measures.
tests/test_adr_0244_identity_gate_runtime.py (new): flag OFF -> legacy
score + no wave telemetry (byte-identical wire); flag ON -> wave gate active
on the live versor + wave telemetry present + bounded measures; flag-off
determinism. Seeds a short sequence to reach main-path (identity-checked)
turns (a fresh empty-vault runtime routes ungrounded inputs to disclosure).
[Verification]: 74 targeted (manifold+gate+runtime+legacy identity+
telemetry) passed; in-worktree smoke 176 passed; fast lane

flag-off byte-identity confirmed across the whole suite.
Extends core/physics/identity.py with the ADR-0244 §2.2/§4a wave-field gate
as a pure, dual-mode capability (no runtime behavior change — the legacy
path stays byte-identical when no wave field is supplied).
- check(trajectory, manifold, *, wave_field=None, violated_boundary_ids=
frozenset()): dual-mode. wave_field present -> operator-preservation
gate; absent -> legacy scalar-L2 (ADR-0010). A MALFORMED wave field
(non-finite / wrong shape / wrong byte-order) raises a typed ValueError
via _validate_wave_field — it never silently falls back to legacy (the
dual-mode fallback is for an ABSENT wave field only).
- _wave_field_score: operator-preservation via IdentityManifoldGeometry
(Phase 1). The trajectory is a versor (operator), so we measure whether
it PRESERVES the value subspace: RMS subspace leakage (tilt toward alien
dimensions) + signed self-alignment (in-subspace inversion). score =
1 - leakage_rms; flagged on score<threshold OR inversion OR boundary.
- IdentityScore extended (wave_mode_active, leakage_norm,
min_self_alignment, boundary_violations) — all defaulted, legacy shape
and construction preserved.
- boundary_ids predicate: violated_boundary_ids & manifold.boundary_ids;
a non-empty intersection is a hard identity-boundary breach (activates
the previously-dormant boundary_ids; item 7).
- IdentityGateRefusal + conjugate_correct (C_id): v1 admit-or-abstain, NO
silent correction of the versor (honors the safety-pack
no_silent_correction boundary); abstains (raises) on violation.
- would_violate extended for boundary + inversion (legacy defaults never
trigger the new branches).
identity_manifold is now imported by identity.py (serve-safe pure algebra);
serve-quarantine transitive test stays green.
tests/test_adr_0244_identity_gate_wave.py (16 tests): dual-mode dispatch,
identity-versor alignment, alien-dimension tilt leakage, in-subspace

Implements ADR-0244 §2.1/§4a: the metric-exact operator-preservation
geometry, pure and off-serve (wired into the runtime gate in Phase 2).
core/physics/identity_manifold.py:
- lift_axis: R^3 pack direction -> grade-1 Cl(4,1) at e1/e2/e3 slots
(basis_vector, not embed_point) so the value subspace lives in the
spatial grade-1 block where <.,.>_0 = Euclidean and the Gram matrix
is positive-definite.
- gram_matrix + ManifoldConditioningError (fail closed when cond(G)>1e5).
- subspace_project: metric-orthogonal P_I(x) with SIGNED coefficients.
- sandwich: versor action R x R~.
- euclidean_norm: positive-definite leakage magnitude (NOT the indefinite
Cl(4,1) norm, which can vanish/negate an e5-boost leakage).
- IdentityManifoldGeometry (frozen): axes_psi + Gram + Gram^-1; .project,
.axis_response -> (leakage, self_align), .leakage_rms.
Operator-preservation, per the ratified core-mechanism correction: the
live trajectory final_state.F is a VERSOR (even-grade operator, zero
grade-1 content), so we measure whether it PRESERVES the value subspace
via F a_i F~, not whether it lives in it. Two per-axis measures, both
required and non-redundant:
- subspace leakage euclidean_norm(rot_i - P_I(rot_i)) catches tilt of a
value axis toward an alien dimension (e4/e5);
- signed self-alignment <a_i, rot_i>_0 catches in-subspace inversion
(e1 -> -e1: leakage 0 but self-align -1).
tests/test_adr_0244_identity_manifold.py (24 tests) pins every falsifiable
claim: G=I for the default pack, idempotent projection, identity versor ->
0 leakage/+1 align, within-plane rotation -> no leak, e4/e5 tilt -> leak,

Turns the D0 "likely vacuous" annotation on ADR-0244 §2.3 into a re-runnable proof
that ΔQ_top = 0 is a hollow egress gate (the #19-pseudoscalar failure mode).
evals/adr_0244_qtop_vacuity/ — computes Q_top = <psi I5 ~psi>_0 on the real
Cl(4,1) algebra and finds: (1) Q_top = 0.000e+00 EXACTLY across every unit versor
(spatial rotors AND boosts through e5, and products) — I5 is central so
psi I5 ~psi = I5*(psi ~psi) = I5 for a unit versor, scalar part 0; (2) off the
versor manifold Q_top = -grade5(psi ~psi), nonzero only where the I-05 closure
residual already fires; (3) it is a conserved Spin(4,1) invariant but identically
0 on the valid manifold; (4) the decisive test — an aligned identity and an
adversarially-rotated one (a valid versor, overlap 0.963) both read Q_top = 0, so
ΔQ_top = 0 PASSES the attack the spectral-leakage/closure check actually catches.

Cohesion directive Mandate 6 (ADR-0244 §2.4). The Fibonacci search was already
~85% compliant (typed OptimizationFailure, fail-closed, bracketed contract,
never a bare float); this closes the two residuals honestly:
- Rename the failure reason unimodality_violation_multiple_extrema_detected ->
sampled_unimodality_violation_observed. A finite sample cannot prove global
unimodality; the check only *observes* a violation on the evaluated points.
Docstrings now state the Bracketed-Local contract explicitly.
- propose_kappa_from_search: kappa=1.0-on-failure IS the required "parameters
unchanged" no-op (thr = productive_threshold / 1.0), and the typed
OptimizationFailure is already returned as the second element — so the fix is
legibility, not a behavior change (the working seam is preserved, not broken):
the docstring names baseline as an explicit caller-side policy, and a new test
pins that a failed search surfaces the typed failure rather than a bare float.
tests: test_adr_0244_search_honesty pins the renamed reason end-to-end (a
cos(8*pi*x) objective whose golden-section samples are non-monotone triggers it;
a smooth bimodal instead converges to a local-min certificate — the honest
Bracketed-Local distinction), _unimodality_ok as a finite-sample check, kappa
failure legibility + no-op baseline, and that no stale reason string remains.
[Verification]: search-honesty 6 + adr_0242_fibonacci + third_door_cohesion +

Cohesion directive Mandates 1+2 (ADR-0244 §2.6 / §2.8).
Mandate 1 — Rust f64 geometric_product fast-path:
- core-rs/src/lib.rs: export a geometric_product_f64 PyO3 wrapper (mirrors the
f32 one; delegates to cl41::geometric_product_f64, itself a term-for-term
mirror of the pure-Python f64 kernel — same i-major scatter order, no FMA).
- algebra/backend.py: f64 branch in geometric_product, gated on CORE_BACKEND=rust
+ core_rs present (default stays pure-Python; older builds fall through on
AttributeError). The directive's f32 gate was already built; the real gap was f64.
- Contract is BIT-IDENTICAL, not tol-matched: a 1-ULP divergence would move the
f64 wave-field residual bytes and break I-02 replay under CORE_BACKEND=rust.
Verified: test_geometric_product_f64_parity N=10000 Rust-vs-Python bit-for-bit
+ CORE_BACKEND=rust subprocess hex match (core_rs built).
- Measured M1 speedup (sixth acceptance criterion): dense f64 GP ~120x
(Rust 4.3 us/call vs Python 520 us/call) with parity holding.
Mandate 2 — eigh memoization:
- cognitive_lifecycle.py: relax_to_ground's dense-branch np.linalg.eigh routed
through _cached_eigh (functools.lru_cache, keyed on the frozen hamiltonian_id +
matrix bytes), returning frozen read-only (evals, evecs) so a cache hit can
never be mutated — every hit is bit-identical. The diagonal (propositional)
fast path is untouched.
tests: test_adr_0244_mechanical_sympathy pins cached-eigh == fresh eigh,
read-only arrays, hit-returns-identical-objects, and relaxation determinism
through the cache; D9 extended with the N=10000 bit-identity gate and its
now-stale "f64 is Python-only" pins updated.
[Verification]: D9 22 passed (incl. bit-identity N=10000, core_rs built) +
mechanical-sympathy + cognitive_lifecycle green; smoke + fast lane below.
Cohesion directive Mandates 4+5. The ADR-0243 lifecycle modules were the only
content-address sites still truncating SHA-256 to 96 bits (24 hex) and passing
default=str to json.dumps — the rest of the codebase already uses full 64-hex
digests (claim_digest, cert_id, decision_id, pressure_id, ...). The default=str
+ [:24] drift had also just replicated into Lane C (biography_wiring.py).
- cognitive_lifecycle.py: _content_id drops default=str (non-serializable payload
now fails closed with TypeError) + full 64-hex; _psi_digest full 64-hex over
canonical little-endian f64 bytes via a new _le_f64_bytes helper (coercion, not
the assert form the ADR-0244 draft used — assert is stripped under -O);
matrix_sha routed through _le_f64_bytes too.
- biography_wiring.py, self_authorship.py: same _content_id hardening. Verified
every payload is JSON-safe after the existing float()/str() wrapping, so
removing default=str changes no current digest value — only future
non-serializable inputs fail closed.
- On little-endian targets the widening is an un-truncation: the new 64-hex
digest's 24-char prefix equals the old value (pinned).
tests: test_adr_0243_cognitive_lifecycle psi_digest gold updated to full+LE; new
test_adr_0244_semantic_rigor pins full-64 length, fail-closed TypeError, LE
byte-order canonicality (native vs >f8 hash-equal), and determinism.

Completes ADR-0243 Phase 4 (plan §5). Adds the metrics benchmark scoring the
cognitive lifecycle against concrete falsifiable comparison classes, joining the
already-committed decisive propositional falsifier (bdf8146a) under one eval package.
evals/adr_0243_cognitive_lifecycle/benchmark.py — five falsifiable metrics, each
grounded in a live lifecycle primitive (no decorative numbers); typed
BenchmarkVerdict / MetricResult; deterministic, JSON-safe:
- fidelity: decode overlap |<psi_steady, target>| after relax_to_ground on a
quadratic well from a perturbed start (min >= 0.999; measured 1.0).
- surprise separation: energy-above-ground of ID (small rotations of the
identity axis) vs OOD (near-orthogonal rotations into distinct Cl(4,1)
planes) against a fixed identity well; strict margined separation
min_ood - max_id > 0.05 (measured 0.834); lam0 verified ~0, not assumed.
- insertion cost: relaxation certificate.steps_taken — all certified, bounded
(<= 256), real work (max_steps > 0; measured 22-23).
- f32 drift over T=1000: unit versor iterated by a fixed rotor with no renorm;
f64 holds versor closure to 1e-9 (~8e-14 measured) while f32 truncates to
~4.7e-5 (ratio ~5.9e8) — the gap motivating ADR-0244 §2.5/§2.6.
- falsifier: run_propositional_falsifier wrong == 0 (1008 ID + 18 refusal-parity).

The propositional slice of ADR-0243's falsifiability benchmark (plan §5 Phase 4),
the arc's load-bearing evidence. Two mechanism-disjoint engines decide the SAME
enumerated propositional problems:
- Field decoder: propositional_entails (Cl(4,1) wave-field ground energy).
- Gold: generate.proof_chain.entail.evaluate_entailment (exact ROBDD tautology
check, ADR-0201 keystone) — genuinely independent, not the field checking itself.
A clause→string bridge (render_clause: `a | ~b | c`) lets both engines decide
byte-for-byte the same problem. Result over the enumerated panel (atoms a,b,c;
premise sets size ≤2):
- 1008 satisfiable-premise ID comparisons: field.entailed ⇔ gold is ENTAILED —
wrong == 0.
- 18 inconsistent-premise cases: field discloses satisfiable_premises=False
exactly where gold returns REFUSED — matched refusal, no ex-falso leak.
- OOD (>5 atoms): field decoder refuses by construction while gold still decides
— the honest ID/OOD scope boundary in the propositional domain.
Deterministic (enumerated, no randomness/wall-clock); off-serving (evals/ only,
chat/runtime non-import pinned).

Wire the ADR-0242 §5 pinned primitives into the contemplation runner
(ADR-0243 §2.4): contemplate_surprise_history() gates the newest
caller-timed ADR-0239 dual-operator observation through
is_discovery_eligible, the measured history through
cross_band_discovery_gate (F5/F6/F7 persistence), and only then emits a
DiscoveryCandidate via the existing emit_surprise_discovery ->
DiscoveryCandidateSink. Proposal-plumbing only: the sole side effect is
sink.emit().
Surprise-signal sourcing (the Lane A open question): ContemplationFinding
carries no surprise measurement and the report-mining paths have no
geometry, so nothing is fabricated for them — the canonical carrier is
the ADR-0239 dual audit dict (SelfAuthorshipMiner / ADR-0240 harness),
consumed as explicit SurpriseObservations with caller-supplied logical
time (deterministic, no wall clock).
Give propose_kappa_line_search its live caller (ADR-0242 §5-P1):
evals/analogical_transfer/kappa_calibration.py calibrate_transfer_kappa,
confined to the ADR-0240 calibration pipeline per R-04; kappa_search_event
fires exactly once when a sink is passed. Proposal-only — no
GoldTetherMonitor mutation.
A-04 hardening found during review: chat/runtime.py idle_tick lazily
imports core.contemplation.runner inside the serve process, and the
package __init__ eagerly pulled wave_seam -> holographic_vault (a
serve-banned module) — a PRE-EXISTING process-level quarantine breach.
Closed by making the wave-seam re-exports lazy (PEP 562) and keeping the
multi_scale_energy gate import function-local; pinned by a new dynamic
idle-tick-edge test in test_serve_quarantine_transitive.py.
Pinned primitives untouched: is_discovery_eligible,
cross_band_discovery_gate, candidate_from_surprise_dual signatures

already-tested organs; no new core.physics module; OFF-SERVING (evals/ only,
never imported by chat/runtime.py).
Relaxation targets the full audio+vision integrated percept but starts from the
audio-only partial percept (engine.solve() is not used, since it ties start ==
target) so the relaxer decodes across real steps rather than starting
already-converged; stages are driven explicitly and reassembled into one
LifecycleOutcome keyed off the full percept.

append-only BiographyProvenanceRecord binding report evidence to the
integrated trajectory hash (AuthorshipProposal-style closure proof in a
TurnEvent-style audit role).
Design ruling (Shay, 2026-07-17, brief open question): direct integration,
structurally pinned — integrate_biography is a pure recompute
(reconstruction-over-storage), so D-5/I-03 proposal gating does not attach;
the ruling is enforced by a test pinning that the wiring imports no vault
store and no evals package (report typed structurally, no core->evals
import). Module registered in the never-serve lazy tier + _BANNED +
third-door banned lists. cognitive_lifecycle.py untouched (Lane C touches
zero Phase-2 code).
Implements ADR-0243 §2 honestly per the plan's deviations ledger, correcting
the §3 sketch's three pinned defects (SD-A/B/C):
- Ingress delegates superposition to sensorium_wave_feed, normalizes once at
the owned construction boundary (D-3).
- Relaxation is the imaginary-time semigroup psi <- normalize(exp(-(H-lam0)*dt)*psi)
(D-1) with a certified, never-assumed convergence certificate (D-2): exact
ground energy, achieved Rayleigh energy, eigen-residual, spectral gap, and a
psi_digest binding the certificate to the exact state it certifies.
- Two checkable problem domains: quadratic_well (convex target-decoding) and
propositional (Cl(4,1) blade lattice = assignment lattice of <=5 atoms;
diagonal penalty Hamiltonian; entailment via UNSAT(premises & !conclusion)
scored against independent truth-table gold).
- Egress composes unit-amplitude-density + certificate-binding + versor
closure (routes, does not admit, per the dual of SD-A) + ADR-0006 energy
classes + E0/E1 crystallization policy. Cold states emit a
CrystallizationProposal (epistemic_status pinned SPECULATIVE by the type;
D-5/I-03) — never a vault write.
- Quarantined off-serving (A-04): lazy barrel export, banned in the
transitive subprocess probe and the cohesion AST suite.
Adversarial verification (finder/verifier workflow; most verify agents lost
to a session limit, every surviving finding reproduced in-tree before acting)
surfaced and this closes two real defects beyond the plan text:
- egress_gate admitted any unit state paired with any converged certificate
from an unrelated run, so CrystallizationProposal could package a foreign
psi_digest next to an unrelated certificate_id as false provenance. Fixed
by binding the certificate to its state (psi_digest) and refusing mismatches
(certificate_state_mismatch).
- A state with a spectral gap below the requested tolerance could certify
with ZERO ground-space overlap (energy window alone can't resolve it).
Certification now also requires the excited weight (E-lam0)/gap <= tol
(refusal spectral_gap_below_tolerance), and the degeneracy cluster is
capped at the acceptance window so certificates report the honest
rate-limiting gap instead of absorbing a hairline split.
38 tests (31 original + 7 hardening: certificate-binding must-reject,
gap-refusal + true-ground pair, dense-branch (eigh) refusals, iterate-collapse,
Hamiltonian/egress shape must-rejects, E2 hold route, hardcoded canonical
entailment verdicts independent of the gold function's code shape).

Commits the ADR-0243 (Wave-Field Cognitive Lifecycle) proposal verbatim as
Proposed, and the arc-governing implementation plan derived from it plus
docs/analysis/core_cohesion_master_plan.md and the ADR-0241/0242 post-Accept
close audit findings.
The plan records that most of ADR-0243's organs already exist on main
(sensorium feed, WaveManifold, energy classes, GoldTether, surprise/discovery
plumbing, self-authorship, biography, packs/en readback) and that
tests/test_third_door_cohesion.py already pins I-01..I-05, A-02/A-04, and
core_ha absence from the cohesion master plan — so this arc is the §2.2
relaxation reasoner plus three wiring lanes, not a rebuild.
Also pins three defects in the ADR's §3 reference prototype so it can never
be ported verbatim: the egress gate's antisymmetric quadratic form is
identically zero (rejects every state, valid or not); the unitary
relaxation loop cannot dissipate toward a ground state (the honest
relaxer is the imaginary-time semigroup); and the prototype's block-matrix
"pseudoscalar proxy" is a different operator from the real Cl(4,1)
pseudoscalar action despite sharing I^2 = -Id.

[Verification]: Smoke suite passed locally (145s, 176 passed); make test-fast
(-n auto) passed twice (11709 passed, 108 skipped each ~11–12 min).
Closes the two staged items recorded in the acceptance packet §7 (ruled
non-blocking at ratification, tracked work):
P1 — kappa_search_event(): JSONL-ready execution-telemetry envelope for
the Fibonacci κ search (kind=fibonacci_kappa_search; certificate payload
with content-addressed cert_id, or failure payload with baseline κ=1.0).
propose_kappa_line_search gains an optional sink (any emit(line) object,
e.g. chat.telemetry sinks) that writes one deterministic JSONL line.
Pure serialization — no state, no COHERENT standing (§6 sovereignty).
P2 — cross_band_discovery_gate(): persistence verdict over a surprise-
event history across the F5/F6/F7 Fibonacci bands (τ = {5,8,13}·τ0).
Eligible ⇔ history spans ≥ F5·τ0 (a single fresh spike has zero temporal
persistence) AND every band's decay-weighted accumulation ≥ γ. Typed
CrossBandVerdict; pure; PROPOSAL-side only. Lives in multi_scale_energy
(Tier-2, serve-quarantined) so the gate can never touch serving —
re-pinned by the module-level sys.modules probe in the new test file.
TDD RED→GREEN. [Verification]: carry-seam suite 10 passed; regression
(goldtether consumers + multi_scale + fibonacci + chiral + quarantine +
cohesion) 85 passed; smoke suite passed locally (133s, 175 passed).
Slow-lane sweep (2026-07-15, 37m06s): 1 failed / 909 passed / 1 skipped /
1 xfailed. The single red was a stale constant pin (assert
MAX_RUNTIME_SECONDS == 30) missed when 640dbe8f deliberately re-budgeted
the public showcase to 60s — the slow lane hadn't been run since (nightly
lives on the billing-locked GitHub side). Pin updated to the deliberate,
comment-documented value; ledger Slow row completed. The historical '~31
full-suite reds' figure is fully retired: fast lane cleared by #45, slow
lane clean after this pin.
[Verification]: tests/test_public_showcase.py green; push held until the
CI locked-install fix lands (branch inherits it via main-merge).
The guard pinned 'ADRs stay Proposed — not self-Accepted', which was
correct until its own precondition was fulfilled: Joshua Shay ruled
'Ratify' on the D10 packet (2026-07-15, ruling record packet §8) and #43
flipped both ADRs to Accepted — turning this pin red on main (first
flagged by the W3 lane as a 'brand-new governance-doc red').
The guard's spirit survives, strengthened: the test now asserts Accepted
WITH inline ratification provenance on both ADR status lines AND the §8
ruling record in the packet — so a silent status flip in EITHER direction
(an Accept without provenance, or a quiet demotion) still fails.
[Verification]: tests/test_adr_0241_governance_p12.py 6 passed; smoke
gate queued behind the running slow-lane sweep, push held until green.
