# Capability Roadmap — Progress Tracker
|
||
|
||
Tracks completion of the phased plan defined in `docs/capability_roadmap.md`
|
||
(ADR-0016). Updated as work lands.
|
||
|
||
> **Naming note.** "Phase N" in this document refers to capability-roadmap
|
||
> phases (Phase 0 through Phase 5+). The ADR-0024 chain has its *own*
|
||
> six-phase plan (Phase 1 through Phase 6) which is tracked separately
|
||
> immediately below. Do not conflate the two.

## ADR-0024 Chain — Forward Semantic Control Closure
|
||
|
||
**Status:** Complete ✓
|
||
**Closed:** 2026-05-17
|
||
|
||
A standalone six-phase plan that closes forward semantic control as a
|
||
deterministic, trace-evidenced, refuse-able mechanism. Distinct from
|
||
the capability-roadmap phases below.
|
||
|
||
| Phase | Commit | Deliverable | Contract tests |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| 1 | `3940290` | Pack-grounded fixture rewrite + architectural finding | (rewrites) |
|
||
| 2 | `310793a` | Typed `InnerLoopExhaustion` + `RefusalReason` + trace fold | +10 |
|
||
| 3 | `639e107` | ADR-0026 ranked-with-margin gate (δ = 0.4 default) | +13 |
|
||
| 4 | `542e13d` | ADR-0025 rotor / frame admissibility (sibling module) | +11 |
|
||
| 5 | `b664984` | Stratified 5-family mechanism-isolation corpus + benign EXHAUSTION_CEILING corpus | +20 |
|
||
| 6 | `a076506` | Three-condition comparative demo (C1 replay / C2 traced rejection / C3 coherent refusal) | +17 |
|
||
| CLI | `36aad75` | Suite aliases (`adr-0024`, `refusal`, `margin`, `rotor`, …) + `core demo` subcommand + results manifest | +14 |
|
||
|
||
ADRs moved to Accepted under this chain: 0024, 0025, 0026.
|
||
ADRs strengthened: 0022 (TBDs closed), 0023 (proof evidence expanded).
|
||
|
||
Evidence locations:
|
||
|
||
- Runtime contracts: `docs/specs/runtime_contracts.md` — Refusal / Margin / Rotor admissibility sections
|
||
- Stratified findings: `docs/evals/phase5_stratified_findings.md`
|
||
- Comparative demo: `docs/evals/phase6_comparative_demo.md`
|
||
- Reports: `evals/forward_semantic_control/results/` (+ auto-refreshed `index.json`)
|
||
- ADR index: `docs/adr/README.md` — "ADR-0024 chain" section
|
||
|
||
How to verify on a fresh checkout:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
core test --suite adr-0024 # 98 contract tests across the chain (~2 min)
|
||
core demo all # phase5 + phase6 + combined summary (~40 s)
|
||
core demo audit-tour # pack-layer architecture in 4 scenes (ADR-0027..0041)
|
||
core demo pack-measurements # ADR-0043 — pack-layer claims as per-pack measurements
|
||
core demo long-context-comparison # ADR-0045 — CORE NIAH recall + frozen transformer baselines
|
||
core demo list-results # index of every JSON report with headline metrics

## Phase 0 — Benchmark Methodology Lock-in
|
||
|
||
**Status:** Complete
|
||
**Started:** 2026-05-15
|
||
**Completed:** 2026-05-16
|
||
|
||
- [x] Promote roadmap to ADR-0016
|
||
- [x] Extract `docs/eval_methodology.md` from roadmap Part I
|
||
- [x] Create progress tracker (`docs/PROGRESS.md`)
|
||
- [x] Implement `evals/<lane>/` directory convention
|
||
- [x] Build generic eval framework (`evals/framework.py`)
|
||
- [x] Retrofit `core eval cognition` into new convention
|
||
- [x] Split 45 cases into dev (13) / public v1 (13) / holdout (19)
|
||
- [x] Write `evals/cognition/contract.md`
|
||
- [x] Migrate `runner.py` to use framework
|
||
- [x] Record v1 results under new layout
|
||
- [x] Generalize `core eval <lane>` CLI (dynamic lane discovery)
|
||
- [x] Implement holdout runner scaffold
|
||
- [x] Implement baseline runner scaffold
|
||
- [x] **Exit gate:** `core eval cognition` runs under new convention with v1 public + holdout + baseline
|
||
|
||
### Methodology issues discovered (Phase 0 audit)
|
||
|
||
1. **Pipeline turn_log crash:** `CognitiveTurnPipeline.run()` assumed `turn_log`
|
||
was always populated after `chat()`, but the unknown-domain gate returns a
|
||
stub without appending. Fixed with fallback to tokenizer output.
|
||
2. **Versor drift in multi-turn sessions:** `test_pipeline_preserves_versor_closure`
|
||
reveals that after 3 turns in the same session, "spirit breath" causes
|
||
`versor_condition = 1.12e-04` (threshold: 1e-6). Pre-existing; resolved by
|
||
strict runtime closure enforcement (always unitize after sandwich product).
|
||
3. **Identity/drive bias shelved:** Premature persona motor and drive bias
|
||
introduced trajectory drift. Removed in favour of persona-neutral generic
|
||
runtime; identity returns behind explicit IdentityProfile contract.

|
||
## Phase 2 — Structural Wins Made Visible
|
||
|
||
**Status:** In Progress
|
||
**Started:** 2026-05-16
|
||
**Depends on:** Phase 1 exit
|
||
|
||
- [x] **provenance** lane (v1 complete)
|
||
- [x] Define Provenance dataclass + compute_provenance() (`core/cognition/provenance.py`)
|
||
- [x] Unit tests for provenance derivation (6/6 pass — `tests/test_provenance.py`)
|
||
- [x] Build pack-axiom / vault-recall / teaching / mixed case categories
|
||
- [x] v1 dev (10/10), v1 public (20/20), v1 holdouts (15/15) — all 100% pass
|
||
- [x] Sub-metrics: replay_determinism=1.0, source_attribution=1.0, source_validity=1.0, input_sensitivity=1.0
|
||
- [x] Fixed shape regression in `generate/stream.py` score-weighted recall (np.eye → multivector identity)
|
||
- [x] Replaced linear-blend rotor scaling with manifold-preserving `rotor_power` (`algebra/rotor.py`); 41 closure-preservation tests
|
||
- [x] Restored `respond()`/`result.final_state` identity contract after anchor pull
|
||
- [x] **monotonic-learning** lane (v1 complete)
|
||
- [x] Define contract: longitudinal regression check across ≥10 teaching cycles
|
||
- [x] Implement runner: shared session, sorted ops, per-(cycle, domain) accuracy table
|
||
- [x] Generator (`scripts/generate_monotonic_cases.py`) for cycle/probe corpora
|
||
- [x] v1 dev (10 cycles), v1 public (12 cycles, 3 domains), v1 holdouts (12 cycles, 2 distinct domains)
|
||
- [x] All splits: max_regression=0.00, floor_score=1.00, overall_pass=true
|
||
- [x] Structural win demonstrated: zero regression across 34 total cycles / 7 distinct domains
|
||
- [x] **calibration** lane (v1 complete)
|
||
- [x] Define contract: typed signals for no_grounding / coherent / correction_proposed
|
||
- [x] Classification from `CognitiveTurnResult` (vault_hits + pack_mutation_proposal)
|
||
- [x] Runner with per-case fresh pipeline (avoids cross-case field drift)
|
||
- [x] v1 dev (12/12), v1 public (24/24), v1 holdouts (18/18) — all 100% pass
|
||
- [x] Sub-metrics: no_grounding=1.0, coherent=1.0, correction_proposed=1.0
|
||
- [x] Architectural finding documented (`evals/calibration/gaps.md`): the
|
||
ingest gate is geometric, not semantic — 6/42 hand-chosen OOD
|
||
prompts fire the geometric gate. v1 measures recall-presence +
|
||
correction-firing signals (deterministic), not semantic OOD.
|
||
Pipeline override of gate's safety surface is a separate gap.
|
||
- [x] **symbolic-logic** lane (v1 complete)
|
||
- [x] Define contract: structural foundations for proposition-based inference
|
||
- [x] Patterns: modus_ponens_chain, modus_tollens_chain, syllogism, negation, chain_recall
|
||
- [x] Runner: per-case fresh pipeline + double-run replay check
|
||
- [x] Sub-metrics: premise_recall=1.0, replay_determinism=1.0, proposal_storage=1.0
|
||
- [x] v1 dev (8/8), v1 public (18/18), v1 holdouts (12/12) — all 100% pass
|
||
- [x] Architectural finding documented (`evals/symbolic_logic/gaps.md`): CORE
|
||
has no first-class inference operator yet. v1 measures the storage,
|
||
replay, and recall foundations on which a future inference engine
|
||
would be built. v2 would assert specific inference correctness
|
||
(transitive recall surface contents).
|
||
- [x] **adversarial-identity** lane (v1 complete)
|
||
- [x] Define contract: identity-override attacks rejected at review;
|
||
legitimate corrections still accepted
|
||
- [x] Cover all `_IDENTITY_MARKERS` families (you are / forget / pretend /
|
||
override / ignore / your name / act as / from now / character /
|
||
personality)
|
||
- [x] Per-case fresh pipeline; prior question primes the review surface
|
||
- [x] Sub-metrics: attack_rejection_rate=1.0, legitimate_acceptance_rate=1.0
|
||
- [x] v1 dev (10/10), v1 public (25/25), v1 holdouts (18/18) — all 100% pass
|
||
- [x] **All five Phase 2 v1 lanes passing** ✓
|
||
- [x] Frontier baselines computed for all lanes (structural-zero floor)
|
||
- [x] `docs/frontier_baselines.md` — per-lane analysis: frontier LLMs do
|
||
not emit the typed signals CORE's rubrics score against
|
||
(provenance sources, pack_mutation_proposal, vault_hits,
|
||
REJECTED_IDENTITY outcome, deterministic trace_hash)
|
||
- [x] Per-lane structural-zero baseline JSON written under
|
||
`evals/<lane>/baselines/v1_structural_zero.json`
|
||
- [x] `StructuralZeroBaseline` adapter in `evals/baseline_runner.py`
|
||
— deterministic floor; live-API adapters can be added when
|
||
keys are configured
|
||
- [x] v2 lanes: all five at 100% pass
|
||
- monotonic-learning v2 — 20 cyc / 5 dom (public), 18 cyc / 4 dom (holdouts)
|
||
- provenance v2 — 30 + 20 cases, all sub-metrics 1.0
|
||
- adversarial-identity v2 — 35 + 22 cases, all 1.0
|
||
- calibration v2 — 33 + 24 cases, all class accuracies 1.0
|
||
- symbolic-logic v2 — 24 + 16 cases (chains up to 5 hops), all 1.0
|
||
- [x] **Exit gate:** v3 lanes for at least two of the five ✓
|
||
- monotonic-learning v3 — 30 cyc / 7 dom (public), 25 cyc / 6 dom (holdouts),
|
||
`max_regression=0.0`, `floor_score=1.0` on both splits
|
||
- adversarial-identity v3 — 30 + 20 paraphrased-attack cases.
|
||
Initial v3 result (pre-fix): `attack_rejection_rate=0.0`,
|
||
`legitimate_acceptance_rate=1.0`. v3 was a load-bearing finding
|
||
that exposed the marker-string defense as brittle to paraphrase.
|
||
|
||
### Identity-override defense — fix #2 + fix #3 (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
Triggered by the v3 finding above. Two-layer defense now active in
|
||
`teaching/review.py`:
|
||
|
||
- **Fix #2 (syntactic).** `_is_identity_override` applies four
|
||
deterministic rules: (a) legacy markers, (b) redirect-verb +
|
||
role-frame co-occurrence, (c) negating qualifier ±3 tokens from a
|
||
role-frame, (d) negating qualifier ±3 tokens from a redirect-verb.
|
||
- **Fix #3 (geometric).** `IdentityCheck.would_violate(score, manifold)`
|
||
predicate added to `core/physics/identity.py`; `review_correction`
|
||
now accepts `identity_score` / `identity_manifold` kwargs and is
|
||
wired in `CognitiveTurnPipeline._run_teaching` from
|
||
`response.identity_score`.
|
||
|
||
Lane results after both fixes:
|
||
|
||
| split | attacks | attack_rej | legit_acc |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| public/v1 | 15 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| holdouts/v1 | 10 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| public/v2 | 20 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| holdouts/v2 | 12 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| public/v3 | 20 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| holdouts/v3 | 12 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| public/v4 | 20 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| holdouts/v4 | 12 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| public/v5 | 20 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
| holdouts/v5 | 12 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
|
||
|
||
v4 is the regression gate for fix #2 — new attack vocabulary
|
||
combinations that exercise rules (b)/(c)/(d) without repeating v3's
|
||
specific surface. v5 is the regression gate for the normalization
|
||
layer — contractions (`you're`/`it's`/`let's`/`don't`), curly quotes
|
||
(U+2018/U+2019), em-dashes, and verb morphology (`becoming` /
|
||
`transformed` / `dropped` / `becomes`) — all now folded before rule
|
||
evaluation. All v1–v5 splits pass at 100%; legitimate-correction
|
||
false-positive rate is 0% (including legitimates that themselves
|
||
use contractions: `wisdom's broader`, `knowledge isn't merely
|
||
collected`, etc.).
|
||
|
||
Honest finding: with the current default `IdentityManifold` (three
|
||
unit-axis ValueAxes), the geometric layer flags 0/32 of v3 attacks
|
||
independently of fix #2. The predicate and wiring are in place; the
|
||
manifold's axis design is the limiting factor and needs sharpening
|
||
before the geometric defense can carry weight on its own. See
|
||
`evals/adversarial_identity/gaps.md`.
|
||
|
||
### Geometric-axis sharpening investigation (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
A focused empirical investigation against v3 and v5 (preserved as
|
||
`evals/adversarial_identity/calibration/probe_field_signature.py`)
|
||
swept every candidate per-case discriminator derivable from the
|
||
existing CognitiveTurnResult — `identity_score.alignment`, field-delta
|
||
L2 norm, semantic-coord energy ratio, `vault_hits`, surface length,
|
||
intent tag. **No signal separated attack from legitimate at the
|
||
per-case level.** `identity_score.alignment` is 1.000 universally;
|
||
field-delta distributions overlap heavily; vault retrieval grounds
|
||
both kinds similarly.
|
||
|
||
The pipeline encodes identity-override attacks and legitimate
|
||
corrections into statistically indistinguishable field-state
|
||
geometries. No amount of axis-direction sharpening on the
|
||
IdentityManifold can recover a signal that isn't present in the
|
||
trajectory data being projected.
|
||
|
||
**Architectural conclusion:** fix #3 cannot be made load-bearing
|
||
in place. The required upstream work — encoding token semantic
|
||
categories into specific blade coordinates of the field versor at
|
||
the ingest gate, then redefining the IdentityManifold axes in the
|
||
32-dim Cl(4,1) basis with a real inner-product projection — is a
|
||
scoped multi-PR effort, not a single sharpening exercise. The
|
||
calibration probe stands as the empirical baseline that any future
|
||
ingest-gate change must beat before fix #3 can be claimed
|
||
load-bearing. See `evals/adversarial_identity/gaps.md` for the
|
||
full table of measured signals and the recommended path.
|
||
|
||
**What stands today as the load-bearing defense:** fix #2
|
||
(syntactic rules a/b/c/d) + the normalization layer reject 100% of
|
||
v1–v5 attacks (n=121) with 0 false positives on 51 legitimate
|
||
corrections. Fix #3's predicate, unit tests, and wiring remain as
|
||
scaffolding for the upstream work above.
|
||
|
||
## Phase 2 — COMPLETE
|
||
|
||
All five Phase 2 v1+v2 lanes pass at 100%; frontier structural
|
||
baselines documented; v3 satisfies the exit-gate requirement (two
|
||
lanes, one demonstrating a passing structural-depth test and one
|
||
demonstrating an architectural vulnerability that the geometric
|
||
identity-check fix in `evals/adversarial_identity/gaps.md` would
|
||
close).
|
||
|
||
### Parallel eval infrastructure (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
- `evals/parallel.py` — `run_cases_parallel()` helper using
|
||
`multiprocessing.Pool` with the `"spawn"` start method (avoids
|
||
forking heavy parent state). Default workers = `min(cpu_count, 8)`.
|
||
- Wired into the four per-case lanes (provenance, calibration,
|
||
symbolic-logic, adversarial-identity). `run_lane(..., workers=N)`
|
||
controls parallelism; `workers=1` forces serial for debugging.
|
||
- Empirical speedup (adversarial-identity public/v1, 25 cases):
|
||
serial 14.1s → parallel 3.1s (~4.5x).
|
||
- Monotonic-learning intentionally stays serial within a split
|
||
(shared longitudinal session by design).
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Phase 3 — Reasoning Depth — IN PROGRESS
|
||
|
||
### inference-closure v1 (2026-05-16) — honest failure, gap filed
|
||
|
||
First Phase 3 lane built and run. Scores derivation of entailments
|
||
that were not directly asserted (transitive `is` / `precedes` /
|
||
`grounds` / `causes` / `belongs_to` chains) over the
|
||
`en_core_cognition_v1` relation vocabulary.
|
||
|
||
| split | n | derived_recall_rate | premises_stored_rate | replay_determinism | overall_pass |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| public/v1 | 20 | **0.0** | 1.0 | 1.0 | False |
|
||
| holdouts/v1 | 12 | **0.0** | 1.0 | 1.0 | False |
|
||
|
||
**v1 is the expected honest failure** per the roadmap. Foundation
|
||
guarantees from Phase 2 (storage and replay determinism) hold at this
|
||
depth: every premise emits a `PackMutationProposal`, every
|
||
(premises, probe) sequence is trace-hash-deterministic. The
|
||
inference-closure step itself does not yet exist in CORE.
|
||
|
||
**Architectural gaps filed
|
||
(`evals/inference_closure/gaps.md`):**
|
||
|
||
1. `generate/graph_planner.py` has no transitive composition — the
|
||
probe's articulation target picks a single node; no chained
|
||
relation walk produces the derived entailment.
|
||
2. `field/propagate.py` has no derivable-but-not-asserted recall —
|
||
vault retrieval scores direct CGA inner products; no path-recall
|
||
operator over relation-typed edges.
|
||
|
||
Both gaps are v2 engineering candidates and may share a single
|
||
implementation surface. Structural-zero frontier baseline recorded:
|
||
frontier LLMs do not emit the typed signals these sub-metrics score
|
||
by construction.
|
||
|
||
### Phase 3 v1 sweep complete (2026-05-16) — all five lanes scored
|
||
|
||
| Lane | split | primary signal | foundation (stored / replay) |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|
|

| inference-closure | holdouts | 0.0 | 1.0 / 1.0 |
|
||
| compositionality | public | compositional = **0.0625** (1/16, fluke) | 1.0 / 1.0 |
|
||
| compositionality | holdouts | 0.0 | 1.0 / 1.0 |
|
||
| multi-step-reasoning | public | endpoint = **0.0** | 1.0 / 1.0 |

| cross-domain-transfer | holdouts | 0.0 | 1.0 / 1.0 |
|
||
|
||
**The signal across all five lanes is unanimous:** Phase 2 storage
|
||
+ replay guarantees hold at this depth (1.0 across the board); the
|
||
reasoning-depth signal is uniformly zero. The five lanes
|
||
triangulate the same architectural gap from five angles:
|
||
|
||
- **Gap 1: `generate/graph_planner.py` has no transitive
|
||
composition.** `plan_articulation` picks a single node; no
|
||
chained relation walk synthesizes derived nodes.
|
||
- **Gap 2: `field/propagate.py` has no derivable-but-not-asserted
|
||
recall.** Vault retrieval is direct CGA inner product; no
|
||
path-recall operator over relation-typed edges.
|
||
- **Gap 3: no `core/cognition/explain.py` module.** No primitive
|
||
exists to generate a natural-language account of a prior turn.
|
||
- **Gap 4: no structural-pattern recogniser.** Relation patterns
|
||
are not first-class entities; subdomain-A teaching does not shape
|
||
subdomain-B competence.
|
||
|
||
Gaps 1, 2, 4 cluster on the same code surface (graph planner +
|
||
field propagate) and may close together. Gap 3 is a distinct
|
||
module-creation work item.
|
||
|
||
### Phase 3 v2 work plan (recommended sequence)
|
||
|
||
1. **Pin the open scope decisions** flagged "Before Phase 3" in
|
||
the Open Scope Decisions table below — Agency (responsive vs.
|
||
goal-directed) and Tool use (typed deterministic operators).
|
||
Transitive composition under (2) is essentially a typed
|
||
deterministic operator, so the tool-use decision shapes how the
|
||
work below should be structured.
|
||
2. **Engineer Gaps 1 + 2** as one bounded PR: a typed
|
||
`transitive_walk(graph, head, relation, max_hops)` operator in
|
||
`graph_planner.py` + a `path_recall(vault, entity, relation_chain)`
|
||
operator in `field/propagate.py`. Both deterministic, both
|
||
exact-CGA. Re-run inference-closure, multi-step-reasoning,
|
||
compositionality, cross-domain-transfer to score the lift.
|
||
3. **Engineer Gap 3** independently: `core/cognition/explain.py`
|
||
producing deterministic natural-language accounts that round-trip.
|
||
4. **Re-author cross-domain-transfer v2** with the matched-control
|
||
comparison contract refinement once B-arm recall is non-zero.
|
||
|
||
### Phase 3 v2 sweep — 8 of 10 splits passing (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
Engineering work from ADRs 0017 + 0018 has now landed. Two bundles:
|
||
|
||
**Bundle 1 — transitive_walk + path_recall (commit `57a6174`)**
|
||
|
||
- `teaching/relation_parse.py` lifts correction text into typed
|
||
`(head, relation, tail)` triples using the
|
||
en_core_cognition_v1 relation vocabulary.
|
||
- `teaching.store.PackMutationProposal` carries the typed triple;
|
||
`TeachingStore.triples()` exposes the cross-turn typed-relation
|
||
graph.
|
||
- `generate/operators.py` defines `transitive_walk` (single-relation
|
||
chain) and `path_recall` (multi-relation chain).
|
||
- `generate.intent` gains `TRANSITIVE_QUERY` intent tag with a
|
||
parsed `relation` field for "What does X precede/cause/ground?"
|
||
and "Where does X belong?" forms.
|
||
- `CognitiveTurnPipeline.run` dispatches the operator after
|
||
`runtime.chat()` and folds the chain endpoint into the surface.
|
||
- `compute_trace_hash` and `CognitiveTurnResult` gain
|
||
`operator_invocation` so operator runs are load-bearing for
|
||
replay equality per ADR-0018.
|
||
|
||
**Bundle 2 — core/cognition/explain.py (commit pending)**
|
||
|
||
- Deterministic canonical re-statement of a turn, dispatched on
|
||
the intent tag. DEFINITION → "What is X?", TRANSITIVE_QUERY →
|
||
"What does X precede?" / "Where does X belong?", CORRECTION →
|
||
the original correction text, etc.
|
||
- Closes Gap 3. No learned model; pure dispatch.
|
||
|
||
**Phase 3 v2 lane re-score:**
|
||
|
||
| Lane | split | v1 | after v2 bundles |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| inference-closure | public | 0.0 | **1.0** ✓ |
|
||
| inference-closure | holdouts | 0.0 | **1.0** ✓ |
|
||
| multi-step-reasoning | public | 0.0 | **0.7333** ✓ |
|
||
| multi-step-reasoning | holdouts | 0.0 | **0.8** ✓ |
|
||
| cross-domain-transfer | public | 0.0 | **1.0** ✓ |
|
||
| cross-domain-transfer | holdouts | 0.0 | **1.0** ✓ |
|
||
| introspection | public | 0.0 | **1.0** ✓ |
|
||
| introspection | holdouts | 0.0 | **1.0** ✓ |
|
||
| compositionality | public | 0.0625 | 0.3125 (partial) |
|
||
| compositionality | holdouts | 0.0 | 0.3 (partial) |
|
||
|
||
**Bundle 3 — multi_relation_walk + permissive intent**
|
||
|
||
- `generate.operators.multi_relation_walk` walks any outgoing
|
||
relation edge from the head (relation label dropped, structure
|
||
preserved). Returns the chain endpoint regardless of which
|
||
relation predicate the chain uses at each step.
|
||
- `generate.intent._TRANSITIVE_QUERY_RE` loosened to accept any
|
||
verb-like word as the relation; previously enumerated a closed
|
||
set. Unrecognised relations now route to TRANSITIVE_QUERY and
|
||
the pipeline's two-step dispatch finds a chain through
|
||
`multi_relation_walk` when no same-relation chain exists.
|
||
- `CognitiveTurnPipeline._maybe_transitive_walk` precision-first
|
||
dispatch: try `transitive_walk(relation)` for literal precision;
|
||
fall back to `multi_relation_walk` when that returns singleton.
|
||
|
||
**Phase 3 v1 — 10 OF 10 SPLITS PASSING:**
|
||
|
||
| Lane | split | v1 | after v2 | after v3 |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| inference-closure | public | 0.0 | 1.0 | **1.0** |
|
||
| inference-closure | holdouts | 0.0 | 1.0 | **1.0** |
|
||
| multi-step-reasoning | public | 0.0 | 0.73 | **1.0** |
|
||
| multi-step-reasoning | holdouts | 0.0 | 0.80 | **1.0** |
|
||
| compositionality | public | 0.0625 | 0.31 | **0.6875** |
|
||
| compositionality | holdouts | 0.0 | 0.30 | **0.80** |
|
||
| cross-domain-transfer | public | 0.0 | 1.0 | **1.0** |
|
||
| cross-domain-transfer | holdouts | 0.0 | 1.0 | **1.0** |
|
||
| introspection | public | 0.0 | 1.0 | **1.0** |
|
||
| introspection | holdouts | 0.0 | 1.0 | **1.0** |
|
||
|
||
**Every Phase 3 lane passes v1.** Foundation guarantees
|
||
(`premises_stored_rate`, `replay_determinism`) remain 1.0 across
|
||
all lanes. Trace_hash bit-stability holds with operator records
|
||
folded in.
|
||
|
||
Compositionality is the only lane below 1.0 perfect-score (0.69 /
|
||
0.80); the residual failures are the `novel_pair_under_seen_relation`
|
||
and `novel_relation_on_seen_pair` cases whose contract authoring
|
||
itself is ambiguous — these are contract-refinement candidates for
|
||
v2 of that lane, not engineering work. Overall_pass threshold
|
||
(≥ 0.50) is comfortably exceeded.
|
||
|
||
### Phase 3 v1 — DONE
|
||
|
||
All five lanes have v1 results with honest scores. Each failure has
|
||
a documented architectural deferral (`gaps.md` per lane). Phase 3
|
||
exit requires ≥ 2 lanes passing v1 by phase exit; today 0 / 5 pass,
|
||
which is the expected v1 floor. Phase 3 exit is gated on the v2
|
||
engineering above.
|
||
|
||
## Phase 3 — Reasoning Depth
|
||
|
||
**Status:** Not Started
|
||
**Depends on:** Phase 2 exit
|
||
|
||
- [ ] **compositionality** lane (construction-family splits, not sampling)
|
||
- [ ] **inference-closure** lane
|
||
- [ ] **introspection** lane
|
||
- [ ] **multi-step-reasoning** lane
|
||
- [ ] **cross-domain-transfer** lane
|
||
- [ ] Pin agency scope decision (responsive vs. goal-directed)
|
||
- [ ] Pin tool-use scope decision
|
||
- [ ] **Exit gate:** All five v1 scored; at least two passing v1
|

|

|
||
## Phase 4 — Scale and Efficiency — IN PROGRESS
|
||
|
||
### sample-efficiency v1 (2026-05-16) — first quantitative-curve lane lands
|
||
|
||
First Phase 4 lane. Measures corrections-to-competence curves
|
||
across 17 concepts (10 public + 7 holdouts). Per-concept curriculum
|
||
is a 4-hop chain of `is` corrections; probe asks the chain head
|
||
after each cumulative-correction count k ∈ {0,1,2,3,4}; score is
|
||
the number of chain-tail tokens visible in the probe surface.
|
||
|
||
| Split | concepts | first_hit | saturation | rate | replay |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| public/v1 | 10 | 1.0 | 4.0 | 1.0 | **1.0** |
|
||
| holdouts/v1 | 7 | 1.0 | 4.0 | 1.0 | **1.0** |
|
||
|
||
**Every concept's curve: `[0,1,2,3,4]`.** One correction → one
|
||
chain hop → one new token in surface. No diminishing returns; no
|
||
plateau; no spurious confabulation at k=0. Replay determinism is
|
||
1.0 across every snapshot — the curve is the deterministic function
|
||
of (concept, k), not a sampled estimate.
|
||
|
||
Phase 4 framework discipline ("Plot, do not threshold") is honored:
|
||
the lane reports the curve and the single structural gate
|
||
(`replay_determinism ≥ 0.95`) is met at perfect 1.0.
|
||
|
||
**What the linearity says.** CORE's reviewed-teaching loop
|
||
integrates each typed correction into the proposition-graph
|
||
substrate, and the typed inference operator (ADR-0018) surfaces
|
||
the chain endpoint on the next probe. The result is one-shot
|
||
learning per correction on chain-shaped curricula — visible by
|
||
construction, not inferred from training-set statistics.
|
||
|
||
**v2 follow-on candidates** (in `evals/sample_efficiency/gaps.md`):
|
||
branching curricula, distractor corrections, OOD probes,
|
||
multi-relation chains, confidence-interval reporting.
|
||
|
||
### long-context-cost v1 + ADR-0019 Stage 1 (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
Second Phase 4 lane. Measures `vault.recall` latency as a function
|
||
of stored-entry count N. Pre-vectorisation: median 875 ms at N=1k,
|
||
8,727 ms at N=10k — unfit for runtime use. Diagnosis: per-element
|
||
Python dispatch in `algebra/backend.py::vault_recall`, not algebra
|
||
cost.
|
||
|
||
**ADR-0019 Stage 1 shipped in same session.** The CGA inner
|
||
product is exactly diagonal with ±1 metric values (verified
|
||
empirically), so `cga_inner(X,Y) = sum_i metric[i]*X[i]*Y[i]`.
|
||
This factors into a NumPy scan that preserves per-versor serial
|
||
component reduction order — scores are bit-identical to the
|
||
scalar path, verified by `tests/test_vault_recall_vectorised.py`.
|
||
|
||
| N | pre-vec median | post-vec median | speedup |
|
||
|---|---:|---:|---:|
|
||
| 1k | 874.774 ms | 0.217 ms | ~4,030x |
|
||
| 10k | 8,727.420 ms | 1.701 ms | ~5,130x |
|
||
| 100k | ~87,000 ms (extrap) | 20.795 ms | ~4,200x |
|
||
|
||
Slope 0.99 (linear). No approximate recall introduced. Stages 2
|
||
(norm-bucketed exact pre-filter) and 3 (layered store with
|
||
deterministic promotion) are documented in ADR-0019 but deferred
|
||
— Stage 1 alone moved per-turn recall from seconds to milliseconds
|
||
at every probed N.
|
||
|
||
### multi-agent-composition v1 (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
Third Phase 4 lane. Structural test that composition does not
|
||
launder identity violations. Two CORE instances (A, B), no shared
|
||
state, message-passing only: user text → B.run() → B's
|
||
articulation_surface → A.run() → A's review verdict.
|
||
|
||
| split | attacks | legits | attack_rej | legit_acc | b_err | overall_pass |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| public/v1 | 10 | 5 | 1.00 | 1.00 | 0.00 | true |
|
||
| holdouts/v1 | 5 | 3 | 0.80 | 1.00 | 0.00 | false |
|
||
|
||
Public 15/15 — every attack on A that is routed *through B's
|
||
articulator* is still rejected by A's identity check.
|
||
Composition does not launder. One holdout failure
|
||
(MAC-HOLD-001 "disregard your axiology") is a vocabulary gap in
|
||
the identity check's term family — would also pass through
|
||
single-agent A. Documented in `evals/multi_agent_composition/gaps.md`.
|
||
|
||
### Phase 4 — EXIT (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
**All three planned lanes shipped, frontier baselines published,
|
||
gaps documented.**
|
||
|
||
| Lane | Public | Holdouts | Curve / Gate |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| sample_efficiency | 10/10 | 7/7 | one-shot-per-correction, replay 1.0 |
|
||
| long_context_cost | linear (slope 0.99) | — | post-Stage-1 21 ms @ N=100k |
|
||
| multi_agent_composition | 15/15 | 7/8 | composition does not launder |
|
||
|
||
Exit gate ("all curves published with confidence intervals") is
|
||
met for the curves; CI bands are v2 work per each lane's gaps.md.
|
||
Vault indexing strategy is decided (ADR-0019: Stage 1 now, Stages
|
||
2/3 gated on future evidence).
|
||
|
||
**What Phase 4 changed in the runtime:**
|
||
- `algebra/backend.py::vault_recall` — vectorised exact scan,
|
||
bit-identical to scalar path.
|
||
- `_CGA_INNER_METRIC` — diagonal metric derived once at import.
|
||
- Bit-identity contract pinned by
|
||
`tests/test_vault_recall_vectorised.py`.
|
||
|
||
**What Phase 4 left for Phase 5 / Rust parity:**
|
||
- Sample-efficiency v2: branching curricula, distractor
|
||
corrections, OOD probes.
|
||
- Long-context-cost v2: multi-run sampling, real-content
|
||
variant, fill-cost sub-lane.
|
||
- Multi-agent-composition v2: composite trace hash, chain depth
|
||
> 2, shared-state lane.
|
||
- Identity-check vocabulary extension (axiology / ontology /
|
||
telos / ethos) — improves adversarial_identity and
|
||
multi_agent_composition holdouts.
|
||
|
||
## Phase 4 — Scale and Efficiency
|
||
|
||
**Status:** EXITED 2026-05-16
|
||
**Exit evidence:** all three lanes above, ADR-0019.
|
||
|
||
- [x] **sample-efficiency** curves (>=10 concepts)
|
||
- [x] **long-context-cost** curves (10^3 to 10^5 vault entries; 10^6 deferred to v2 after Stage 1)
|
||
- [x] **multi-agent-composition** (>=2 agents, message-passing only, replay preserved per-agent)
|
||
- [x] Vault indexing strategy decided (ADR-0019)
|
||
- [x] **Exit gate:** all curves published; CI bands deferred to v2 per gaps.md
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Phase 5 — Curriculum Era
|
||
|
||
**Status:** IN PROGRESS (opened 2026-05-16, ADR-0020 Option C)
|
||
**Depends on:** Phase 4 exit (✓ 2026-05-16)
|
||
**Parallel track:** Rust backend parity port, per-surface
|
||
bit-identity gated.
|
||
|
||
- [x] 5.1 English fluency (`english_fluency_ood` v1, 100% on
|
||
public + holdouts, 2026-05-16)
|
||
- [x] 5.2 Hebrew fluency (`hebrew_fluency` v1, 3/3 — script +
|
||
length rubric; lexeme-slot grounding deferred to v2, see
|
||
`evals/hebrew_fluency/gaps.md`)
|
||
- [x] 5.3 Koine Greek fluency (`koine_greek_fluency` v1, 3/3 —
|
||
same v1 scope as 5.2)
|
||
- [x] 5.4 Elementary mathematics (`elementary_mathematics_ood` v1,
|
||
117/117 public + 39/39 holdouts = 100%)
|
||
- [x] 5.5 Foundational physics (`foundational_physics_ood` v1,
|
||
117/117 + 39/39 = 100%)
|
||
- [x] 5.6 Foundational biology (`foundational_biology_ood` v1,
|
||
117/117 + 39/39 = 100%)
|
||
- [x] 5.7 Classical literature (`classical_literature_ood` v1,
|
||
117/117 + 39/39 = 100%)
|
||
- [ ] Phase 1-4 lanes re-run on every release (no regression)
|
||
|
||
### Parallel track — Rust parity (ADR-0020)
|
||
|
||
Per-surface bit-identity gates landed (2026-05-16):
|
||
|
||
- [x] `vault_recall` — passing, dispatch enabled (1.91× at N=1M)
|
||
- [x] `cga_inner` — passing, dispatch enabled
|
||
- [x] `geometric_product` — passing, dispatch enabled
|
||
- [x] `versor_condition` — passing after f64 fold fix, dispatch enabled
|
||
- [x] `versor_apply` — f64 port passing, dispatch enabled
|
||
(29× over Python on the runtime hot path)
|
||
- [x] ADR-0021 (Epistemic Grade Policy) schema wired across
|
||
teaching + trace + lexicon (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
### Compositionality + paragraph-scale fluency (2026-05-16)
|
||
|
||
- [x] **`compose_relations` operator + `FRAME_TRANSFER` intent**
|
||
lifts compositionality from 68.8% → **100%** on public/v1
|
||
(16/16) and holdouts/v1 (10/10). Closes the residual
|
||
`novel_pair_under_seen_relation` pattern: "What does X R in
|
||
Y?" surfaces both R-tails deterministically via a pure lookup
|
||
over the typed teaching store; result is folded into
|
||
`operator_invocation` so `trace_hash` stays bit-identical.
|
||
- [x] **inference_closure, multi_step_reasoning, cross_domain_transfer**
|
||
all verified at 100% across public + holdouts after the new
|
||
operator and intent shape land (no regressions from the wider
|
||
`FRAME_TRANSFER` regex).
|
||
- [x] **`discourse_paragraph` v2** ships scaling cases at
|
||
10 / 20 / 50 sentences with per-sentence grammaticality +
|
||
per-step subject alignment + bit-identical replay (3/3
|
||
passing), plus 3 runtime round-trip cases that prime the
|
||
vault and verify the runtime path is byte-identical across
|
||
two fresh `ChatRuntime` instances (3/3 passing).
|
||
- [x] **`benchmarks/replay_vs_llm.py`** ships: long-form replay
|
||
benchmark with optional `llm_callable` for frontier-LLM
|
||
surface-variability comparison (BYO API client; no provider
|
||
lock-in). Default cognition-pack prompts demonstrate
|
||
CORE-side 100% bit-identical replay at `runs=3`.

|
||
## Phase 6 — Evidence-Governed Domain Layer
|
||
|
||
**Status:** IN PROGRESS (opened 2026-05-21, first promotion landed 2026-05-22)
|
||
**Depends on:** Phase 5 corpus flywheel + pack-layer chain (ADR-0027..0045)
|
||
**Roadmap:** see `docs/capability_roadmap.md` Phase 6 entry.
|
||
|
||
This phase ratifies the distinction between *contract-passing* (`reasoning-capable`) and *demonstrated* (`audit_passed=true`) at the capability ledger surface.
|
||
|
||
### Contract layer (all accepted)
|
||
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0091** Domain Pack Contract v1 — nine predicate checks on every ratified pack
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0092** Reviewer Registry v1 — schema-validated YAML reviewer roster
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0093** Domain Contract v1 implementation — runtime validator + ledger enforcement
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0094** Proposal source provenance — discriminated `ProposalSource(kind=...)`
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0095** Miner-sourced teaching proposals — `teaching/from_miner.py` + SHA-pinned `miner_loop_closure` lane
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0096** Fabrication-control eval lane — phantom / cross-pack / sibling-collapse refusals (SHA-pinned)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0098** Demo composition contract
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0099** Public showcase demo (deterministic, byte-equal, <30s)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0104** Curriculum-sourced teaching proposals — `teaching/from_curriculum.py` + SHA-pinned `curriculum_loop_closure` lane
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0105** Sealed-holdout encryption via age — dev-mode plaintext fallback preserved
|
||
|
||
### Reasoning-capable ratifications
|
||
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0097** `mathematics_logic` reasoning-capable (now superseded by ADR-0110 audit-passed, see below)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0100** `physics` reasoning-capable (now superseded by ADR-0111 audit-passed, see below)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0101** `systems_software` reasoning-capable
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0102** `hebrew_greek_textual_reasoning` reasoning-capable (first multi-pack ratification: 4 packs)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0103** Hebrew + Koine Greek fluency lane attachment to ADR-0102 packs
|
||
|
||
### Expert-demo arc (the contract demonstrated end-to-end)
|
||
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0106** Expert-Demo Promotion Contract — domain-aware, reviewer-signed, replay-deterministic
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0107** `mathematics_logic` audit-passed deferred — first promotion attempt **honestly refused** on two named blockers (metric-shape uniformity; `inference_closure` 40% pass)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0108** Proposed-ADR sequencing — meta-decision pinning the post-ADR-0105 frontier
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0109** Lane-shape-aware threshold amendment — 8 lane ids → 5 shapes (`cognition_shape`, `accuracy_shape`, `inference_shape`, `refusal_shape`, `symbolic_logic_shape`); unknown lanes fail-closed; cognition-shape thresholds preserved bit-identical
|
||
- [x] PR #117 — fix intent-classifier regression that had broken `inference_closure` (`_CORRECTION_CUE_PREFIX_RE` guard)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0110** `mathematics_logic` audit-passed promoted — **first domain at `audit_passed=true`** in project history; signed claim digest reproduces byte-for-byte from on-disk lane results
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0111** `physics` audit-passed promoted — **second domain at `audit_passed=true`**; no contract change, one-file dev-mode fallback bridge; shares `inference_closure` + `fabrication_control` results with math (distinct digest via `domain_id`); retires the "math-only" objection
|
||
|
||
### Contract demonstration narrative
|
||
|
||
The ADR-0106 contract refused once (0107), amended once cleanly (0109), succeeded against `mathematics_logic` (0110), and succeeded against `physics` without further contract change (0111). External readers can now distinguish the two ceilings (`reasoning-capable` vs `audit-passed`) by inspecting the ledger.
|
||
|
||
### Current ledger state (per `core capability ledger`)
|
||
|
||
| Domain | Status |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| `mathematics_logic` | **`audit-passed`** ✓ |
|
||
| `physics` | **`audit-passed`** ✓ |
|
||
| `systems_software` | **`audit-passed`** ✓ (third promotion, ADR-0124) |
|
||
| `hebrew_greek_textual_reasoning` | `reasoning-capable` |
|
||
| `philosophy_theology` | `reasoning-capable` |
|
||
|
||
### Open within Phase 6
|
||
|
||
- [x] Third audit-passed promotion (`systems_software` via ADR-0124)
|
||
- [ ] Multi-reviewer threshold signing (open candidate frontier item from ADR-0105)
|
||
|
||
### Pack-layer chain — ADR-0027 through ADR-0045 (backfill)
|
||
|
||
The pack-layer architecture that Phase 6 builds on was established as a sequence between Phases 4 and 5 work but never registered here. Captured retroactively:
|
||
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0027** Identity packs — `IdentityManifold` loaded from swappable, content-addressed pack
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0028** Identity surface wiring — packs carry `surface_preferences` consumed by assembler
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0029** Safety packs — sibling to identity, never-swappable, fail-closed at startup
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0033** Ethics packs — third pack layer; swappable like identity, propositional like safety
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0035** Turn-loop verdicts — `SafetyCheck` + `EthicsCheck` auto-invoked
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0036** Safety refusal policy — typed runtime refusal
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0037** Ethics refusal opt-in
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0038** Hedge injection — soft remediation
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0039** Audit completeness — `TurnVerdicts` bundle + stub-path emission
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0040** Telemetry sink — structured JSONL turn-event sink
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0041** CLI verdicts + fan-out
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0042** Audit-tour demo — `core demo audit-tour`
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0043** Pack measurements — identity-divergence + refusal-calibration runners
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0044** Medical-ethics pack — worked-example domain ethics pack
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0045** Long-context comparison evidence
|
||
|
||
### Forward-graph + surface-composer chain — ADR-0046 through ADR-0089 (backfill)
|
||
|
||
Also retroactive (the bulk happened between 2026-05-18 and 2026-05-20):
|
||
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0046/0047** Forward graph constraint — PropositionGraph → AdmissibilityRegion *before* generate runs
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0048..0066** Pack-grounded surface composers for every intent shape (DEFINITION, RECALL, COMPARISON, PROCEDURE, CORRECTION, NARRATIVE, EXAMPLE)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0063/0064** Cross-pack resolver + cross-pack teaching corpora
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0068..0072** Register substrate (terse / convivial / formal); orthogonal axis — register holds `trace_hash` CONSTANT
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0073** Anchor lens substrate — substantive variation axis; **opposite** invariant from register (lens moves `trace_hash` DISTINCT)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0078** Composer/graph atom equivalence telemetry
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0080** Contemplation Loop Phase 1 — read-only frontier-compare miner, `SPECULATIVE`-only findings (landed 2026-05-22)
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0083** Transitive chain surface — bounded multi-hop teaching-grounded surface
|
||
- [x] **ADR-0089** Discourse planner + compound-intent dispatch
|

## Phase 5 — GSM8K-Math Substrate Complete (ADR-0119 + sub-phases)
|
||
|
||
**Status:** Complete ✓ (all 8 sub-phases landed 2026-05-22/23)
|
||
**Depends on:** ADR-0114, ADR-0114a, ADR-0115, ADR-0116, ADR-0117, ADR-0118
|
||
**Roadmap:** `docs/adr/ADR-0119-gsm8k-eval-lane-roadmap.md`
|
||
|
||
This phase completes the GSM8K eval lane substrate defined in ADR-0114 §Phase 5 and
|
||
decomposed into 8 sub-phases by ADR-0119. The lane is now substrate-complete;
|
||
ADR-0120 (the first `expert` promotion contract) is the next gate.
|
||
|
||
### Sub-phase checklist
|
||
|
||
- [x] **5.1 (ADR-0119.1)** — Sealed-holdout encryption wired for `fabrication_control` lane;
|
||
establishes the key-management and runner-decryption pattern. Discharges
|
||
ADR-0114a Obligation #1 for that lane.
|
||
- [x] **5.2 (ADR-0119.2)** — 200 CORE-original GSM8K-style cases authored (50 dev +
|
||
150 public); `verify.py` 200/200 OK; sealed holdout placeholder reserved for 5.7.
|
||
- [x] **5.3 (ADR-0119.3)** — `evals/gsm8k_math/runner.py` built; `run_lane(cases) →
|
||
LaneReport`; correct/wrong/refused triple; `wrong == 0` gate wired. **CORE-original
|
||
public split: 150/150 correct, 0 wrong, 0 refused.**
|
||
- [x] **5.4 (ADR-0119.4)** — Frontier-baseline comparison filed: Claude 3.5 Sonnet
|
||
96.4%, GPT-4 92.0%, Gemini 1.5 Pro 90.8%; `frontier.json` + `comparison_v1.json`
|
||
with split-mismatch disclaimer. Discharges ADR-0114a Obligation #7.
|
||
- [x] **5.5 (ADR-0119.5)** — Adversarial suite: 38 cases × 12 families; **0 wrong across
|
||
all families** (misparse rate zero). `subtle_in_grammar` family proves trivial-refusal
|
||
bypass impossible. Discharges ADR-0114a Obligation #8.
|
||
- [x] **5.6 (ADR-0119.6)** — Depth-curve harness built;
|
||
`evals/gsm8k_math/scoring/depth_curve.py`; flat at 1.0 across depths 1–8 on public
|
||
split; bucket distribution 15/45/45/45. Discharges ADR-0114a Obligation #6
|
||
(measurement side; ε threshold to ADR-0120).
|
||
- [x] **5.7 (ADR-0119.7)** — Real GSM8K test set (1,319 cases) age-encrypted to
|
||
`evals/gsm8k_math/holdouts/v1/cases.jsonl.age`; plaintext never on disk; one-way
|
||
seal. **First honest CORE-vs-real-GSM8K measurement: 0 correct, 0 wrong,
|
||
1,319 refused.** Discharges ADR-0114a Obligation #1 for the gsm8k_math lane.
|
||
- [x] **5.8 (ADR-0119.8)** — New lane shape `gsm8k_capability_shape` registered in
|
||
`LANE_SHAPE_REGISTRY`; gates: `wrong == 0`, `correct + refused == cases_total`,
|
||
`cases_total > 0`, `overall_pass == True`; live dev 50/50 + public 150/150 pass.
|
||
|
||
### Key measurements
|
||
|
||
| Split | Cases | Correct | Wrong | Refused | Gate |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| CORE-original dev | 50 | 50 | 0 | 0 | ✓ |
|
||
| CORE-original public | 150 | 150 | 0 | 0 | ✓ |
|
||
| Real GSM8K test (sealed holdout) | 1,319 | 0 | 0 | 1,319 | ✓ |
|
||
| Adversarial suite | 38 | 5 | 0 | 33 | ✓ |
|
||
|
||
The headline framing: **"0 wrong against an external benchmark"** is the
|
||
load-bearing claim, not "0 correct". CORE refuses what it cannot
|
||
grammar-handle; it does not confabulate. ADR-0114a Obligation #4 holds
|
||
against the real GSM8K test set without modification.
|
||
|
||
Frontier baseline comparison (CORE-original public split vs. vendor scores on real GSM8K
|
||
test; apples-vs-oranges acknowledged and documented):
|
||
|
||
| Model | GSM8K score |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| Claude 3.5 Sonnet | 96.4% |
|
||
| GPT-4 | 92.0% |
|
||
| Gemini 1.5 Pro | 90.8% |
|
||
|
||
Depth curve: flat at 1.0 across depths 1–8 on the CORE-original public split (no
|
||
decay — consistent with ADR-0114a Obligation #6's requirement for a flat curve vs.
|
||
LLMs that decay sharply past depth 4–5).
|
||
|
||
### ADR-0114a obligations: 10 of 10 discharged for gsm8k_math
|
||
|
||
| # | Obligation | Discharged by |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| 1 | Sealed-holdout discipline | ADR-0119.1 (fab_control) + ADR-0119.7 (GSM8K test) |
|
||
| 2 | OOD surface variation ≥ 0.95 of dev | ADR-0118a |
|
||
| 3 | Every correct answer ships replay-equal trace | ADR-0117 |
|
||
| 4 | Typed refusal; wrong == 0 | ADR-0116 + ADR-0119.3 + ADR-0119.7 (holds vs real GSM8K) |
|
||
| 5 | Reasoning-isolation perturbation suite | ADR-0125 |
|
||
| 6 | Compositional-depth curve | ADR-0119.6 (harness); ε threshold to ADR-0120 |
|
||
| 7 | Frontier-baseline comparison | ADR-0119.4 |
|
||
| 8 | Adversarial generation; misparse rate zero | ADR-0119.5 |
|
||
| 9 | Determinism across release boundaries | solver + verifier + realizer + runner |
|
||
| 10 | Operation provenance via pack | ADR-0116 + `en_arithmetic_v1` |
|
||
|
||
**ADR-0120 (first expert promotion contract) becomes feasible.** The only remaining
|
||
work before ADR-0120 can land is the numeric threshold-setting (depth-curve ε,
|
||
minimum correct_rate, signed expert_claims schema) — that is a single ADR's job.
|
||
|
||
### New artifacts shipped in this phase
|
||
|
||
- `en_arithmetic_v1` operational pack: 5 lemmas (add, subtract, multiply, divide,
|
||
transfer) providing pack-grounded operation vocabulary for the solver
|
||
- `gsm8k_capability_shape` lane shape in `LANE_SHAPE_REGISTRY`
|
||
- `evals/gsm8k_math/adversarial/generator.py` + `score.py`
|
||
- `evals/gsm8k_math/scoring/depth_curve.py`
|
||
- `evals/gsm8k_math/holdouts/v1/cases.jsonl.age` (420,486 bytes)
|
||
- `scripts/seal_gsm8k_test.py`

## 2026-05-26 — Math Architecture Corridor Closure + Workbench Operational
|
||
|
||
**Status:** Math corridor end-to-end demonstrated ✓ — first non-zero GSM8K lift produced; Workbench operational end-to-end ✓.
|
||
**Session log:** [SESSION-2026-05-26-corridor-closure.md](sessions/SESSION-2026-05-26-corridor-closure.md)
|
||
|
||
### First measurable lift on GSM8K train_sample (50 cases)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
correct: 3 (up from 0 — first non-zero correct count ever)
|
||
refused: 47 (down from 50)
|
||
wrong: 0 (unchanged — invariant holds)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Three cases lifted: `gsm8k-train-sample-v1-0014` (Bob's oysters, ans=240), `0018` (Xavier's football, ans=16), `0042` (Ella's apples, ans=30). Capability-axis floor (G1..G5 + S1) preserved at wrong=0 post-ratification.
|
||
|
||
### Math architecture (ADR-0163) — corridor closed end-to-end
|
||
|
||
| Phase | PR | Deliverable |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| A | #297 | `evals/refusal_taxonomy/` — 9-category shape taxonomy, 72% of 50 refused statements categorized |
|
||
| B | #298 | `teaching/admissibility_exemplars/` — 60 hand-authored seeds across 3 categories |
|
||
| C | #301 | `teaching/recognizer_synthesis.py` + admissibility replay gate; deterministic, narrowness-preserving, rules-only synthesis |
|
||
| D | #302 | `generate/recognizer_registry.py` + `generate/recognizer_match.py` + one-line skip-only guard in `math_candidate_graph.py:455-470`; wrong=0 safe by construction |
|
||
| Ratify | #304 | Operator accepted all three Phase C recognizers via `core teaching review --accept` |
|
||
|
||
The thesis ("decodes, not generates") is now demonstrated as actionable: operator-authored exemplars → engine-derived recognizers → operator ratification → measurable admissibility lift, with no algebra changes, no pack mutations, no hidden normalization.
|
||
|
||
### Workbench (ADR-0160 / 0162) — operational end-to-end
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
uv run core workbench api # http://127.0.0.1:8765
|
||
cd workbench-ui && pnpm dev # http://127.0.0.1:5173
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
| Branch | PR | Deliverable |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| W-026 | #292 | read-only HTTP API: 7 GET endpoints + 1 whitelisted POST, path-traversal protection, MAX_ARTIFACT_BYTES guard, single-operator concurrency lock |
|
||
| ADR-0162 | #293 | design system doctrine: semantic tokens, dark theme, motion rules, `StableJsonViewer` six invariants, empty/error/loading contract |
|
||
| Branch 1 | #295 | substrate scaffold: tokens, `StableJsonViewer`, enum-bound badges (4 enums, build-time AST coverage check), `/preview` page |
|
||
| W-027 | #299 | five-region shell, ten empty routes, live `StatusFooter`, `CommandPalette`, `ApiErrorBoundary`, schema-drift sentinel |
|
||
| W-028 | #303 | first route with real content: `/chat` with PromptComposer + ResponseCard + EvidenceStrip + TraceDrawer (three layers); `POST /chat/turn` with `threading.Lock` + body/prompt caps |
|
||
|
||
### HITL queue (ADR-0161) — read-only CLI shipped
|
||
|
||
| Step | PR | Deliverable |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| Scope | #291 | ADR-0161 ratified; queue is derived view over proposal log + contemplation runs; pending cap 256; only repo owner ratifies |
|
||
| Step 1 | #296 | `core teaching hitl-queue list\|show` read-only projection; pure function over proposal log |
|
||
|
||
### Total session output
|
||
|
||
- **15 PRs merged** (#288, #290–#299, #301–#304)
|
||
- **1 issue filed** (#300 — `ingest/gate.py` versor_condition margin)
|
||
- **4 new ADRs** ratified (#0160, #0161, #0162, #0163)
|
||
- **3 recognizers** ratified into the math admission surface
|
||
- **First non-zero GSM8K correct count** in project history
|
||
|
||
### What stays open
|
||
|
||
- **Phase E** (re-baseline harness) — briefed, not dispatched
|
||
- **Phase B round 2** (3 more shape categories from the uncategorized 14)
|
||
- **W-029/030/031** (proposal queue / eval center / replay theater)
|
||
- **ADR-0161 Steps 2–5** (backpressure / submission invariants / workflow extension / contemplation PR body)
|
||
- **Issue #300** fix
|
||
|
||
The substrate is now complete enough to run subsequent rounds end-to-end automatically: Phase B round 2 → Phase C synthesis → operator ratification → measurable lift, with the corridor's wrong=0 invariant enforced by the existing replay gate at each step.
