The "they'd want to use it" first-run surface: a curated narrative that makes
the engine's discipline legible to a newcomer — bring a claim from any model and
watch it get decided, refused, or replayed. Proposer authority ignored.
Honest by construction (the risk with a narrative surface is theater):
- workbench/tour.py determinism_tour() is a curated ordered narrative BOUND to
the real demo registry. Intro (provider-agnostic thesis) → three demo steps
(deductive entailment decides only on engine+oracle agreement; epistemic
truth-state refuses a wrong proposer; proof-carrying promotion ignores
proposer authority) → payoff (replay-to-same-hash + the citable evidence
bundle).
- Each demo step's what_this_proves / what_this_does_not_prove cards and the
demo title are PULLED FROM THE REAL DEMO SPEC — never re-authored — so the
tour can never claim more than the demo it points at.
- A step referencing a missing demo FAILS CLOSED (KeyError), not a dead link.
Tests assert both (cards == spec; phantom demo raises).
Backend: schemas.py DeterminismTour/TourStep; GET /tour. schema-snapshot regen.
Frontend: /tour route registered in the registry (Determinism section, 14
routes; nav/palette/guide counts updated); TourRoute — thesis hero + ordered
step cards with the honesty cards + links to the real demos / replay.
Validation: 140 workbench Python tests incl. tour drift guards; 472/472 frontend
incl. routes/routeConformance/routes.docs (guide↔registry), Shell+palette counts
(14), schemaDrift, and the tour UI test; pnpm build clean; git diff --check
clean. No serving-path imports.

CORE Workbench UI
React/Vite/TypeScript frontend for CORE Workbench — a local operator UI for inspecting engine state, proposals, evals, and audit trails.
Local development
# Terminal 1 — start the API (W-026)
uv run core workbench api
# Terminal 2 — start the frontend
cd workbench-ui
pnpm install
pnpm dev # http://127.0.0.1:5173
Custom API URL
VITE_WORKBENCH_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9000 pnpm dev
Design system baseline
pnpm preview # Serves dist/ on http://127.0.0.1:4173
# Navigate to /preview for the Branch 1 design-system baseline
Tests
pnpm test # Vitest unit + component tests
pnpm test:enum-coverage # Badge enum coverage (requires uv)
Schema drift detection
The TypeScript types in src/types/api.ts mirror workbench/schemas.py.
To check for drift after Python schema changes:
# From repo root
uv run python scripts/dump-api-schemas.py
# Then run: pnpm test (api.test.ts catches field-level drift)
