The keel names this repository as its evidence source and cites these paths by
name in its most-read documents. They existed only in a working tree.
coreai/docs/atlas/00-atlas-overview.md "Evidence base: ... the full ADR
audit (../core/docs/adr-audit/:
all 314 ADRs, 431 findings, four
governance patterns)"
coreai/docs/plans/2026-07-29-specification-reconciliation.md
"Predecessor evidence:
../core/docs/adr-audit/ ...,
the 2026-07-28 census"
coreai/docs/Whitepaper.md "Sources: ../core/docs/adr-audit/
finding AA-250 and Pattern C-bis"
A citation to a path nobody else can reach is testimony about this repository,
not evidence from it — the keel's own transit rule, applied here. Until this
commit the atlas's entire evidence base, the specification reconciliation's
predecessor evidence, and a Whitepaper source were unreachable to every reader
but one.
docs/adr-audit/ 56 files — the ADR census, stack taxonomy, per-ADR cards,
component cards, triage log, finding register, and the
cross-batch synthesis the keel's protocol step 2b reads
docs/census/ 10 files — the 2026-07-28 module census (666 modules,
293 serving-reachable) the atlas quotes
docs/plans/2026-07-29-adr-audit-plan.md
docs/adr/INDEX-by-domain.md regenerated
evals/ two obligation fixtures updated
This is the same defect the keel spent today finding in its own records, in the
other direction: there, a pin resolved against a working tree and let an
unpublished file discharge an accepted claim. Here, published prose cited
unpublished evidence. Both are the gap between what one machine can see and what
the record can prove, and both close the same way — publish, then cite.
[Verification]: uv run core test --suite smoke -q -> 786 passed (run before this
commit; docs plus two eval fixtures, no code path touched — re-run recorded on
the PR).
