feat(evals): ADR-0105 — sealed holdout encryption via age (#108) 
* feat(evals): add pyrage dependency

* feat(evals): add sealed holdout path resolution

* feat(evals): implement sealed holdout decryption

* feat(evals): add sealed holdout CLI

* test(evals): add sealed holdout encryption tests

* docs(decisions): add ADR-0105 sealed holdout encryption

* feat(evals): route holdout split through sealed decryptor

* docs(decisions): add ADR-0105 index entry

* chore: restore project description

* fix(evals): use pyrage Identity.from_str and pin curriculum SHA

- holdout_runner: pyrage exposes Identity.from_str, not from_file; parse
  identity file by line and pass list[Identity] into decrypt(). Restores
  PR 108's sealed-holdout test suite to green.
- verify_lane_shas: realign curriculum_loop_closure pin with the actual
  deterministic runner output (carryover from PR 107).

Architecture Decision Records

This directory contains the Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for the CORE project.

ADRs record significant architectural decisions: what was decided, why, what alternatives were considered, and what consequences follow. They are permanent records — superseded ADRs are archived, not deleted.

Current frontier

The ADR-0091..0105 slate is fully accepted and mechanically evidenced:

  • Domain Pack Contract v1 — ADR-0091
  • Reviewer Registry v1 — ADR-0092
  • Domain Contract v1 enforcement — ADR-0093
  • Proposal Source Provenance — ADR-0094
  • Miner-Sourced Teaching Proposals — ADR-0095
  • Fabrication-control negative eval lane — ADR-0096
  • mathematics_logic reasoning-capable ratification — ADR-0097
  • Demo Composition Contract — ADR-0098
  • Public Showcase Demo — ADR-0099
  • physics reasoning-capable ratification — ADR-0100
  • systems_software reasoning-capable ratification — ADR-0101
  • hebrew_greek_textual_reasoning multi-pack reasoning-capable ratification — ADR-0102
  • Hebrew/Greek fluency lane attachment for ADR-0102 — ADR-0103
  • Curriculum-Sourced Teaching Proposals — ADR-0104
  • Sealed Holdout Encryption via age — ADR-0105

Seven lanes are SHA-pinned in scripts/verify_lane_shas.py and gated by the lane-shas GitHub Actions workflow:

  • reviewer_registry
  • domain_contract_validation
  • miner_loop_closure
  • curriculum_loop_closure
  • fabrication_control_summary
  • demo_composition
  • public_demo

The next implementation frontier is open. Candidate directions include:

  • Expert-demo ratification. All ADR-0097/0100/0101/0102 ledger rows currently sit at reasoning-capable with expert_demo=false. The expert-demo promotion contract remains open for a future ADR.
  • Multi-reviewer holdout governance and threshold signing. ADR-0105 seals holdout payloads with a single recipient identity; multi-reviewer governance is a future direction.

No ADR currently sits in a "Proposed but unimplemented" state.

Accepted reasoning-capable domains

Domain Ratification ADR Pack(s) Evidence summary
mathematics_logic ADR-0097 en_mathematics_logic_v1 All nine ADR-0091 predicates pass; ledger row is reasoning-capable; expert_demo remains false; lanes include positive coverage, inference closure, and fabrication control.
physics ADR-0100 en_physics_v1 All nine predicates pass; causal/modal operator coverage meets threshold; ledger row is reasoning-capable; expert_demo remains false.
systems_software ADR-0101 en_systems_software_v1 All nine predicates pass; transitive/causal operator coverage meets threshold; ledger row is reasoning-capable; symbolic_logic is the v1 closest-fit eval lane.
hebrew_greek_textual_reasoning ADR-0102 + ADR-0103 grc_logos_micro_v1, grc_logos_cognition_v1, he_logos_micro_v1, he_core_cognition_v1 First multi-pack ratification; all four packs carry uniform contract fields; causal/contradiction operator coverage meets threshold; ADR-0103 attaches Hebrew and Koine Greek fluency lanes with dev/public/holdout coverage.

ADR chain notes

Forward Semantic Control closure — ADR-0022 through ADR-0026

ADR-0022 through ADR-0026 form a single coherent chain that closes forward semantic control as a non-stochastic, replay-deterministic, trace-evidenced mechanism.

  1. ADR-0022 establishes AdmissibilityRegion and the contract that a region restricts the admissible token set at generation time.
  2. ADR-0023 records proof evidence that the admissibility region is honored at the region-intersection level.
  3. ADR-0024 adds destination-side per-step admissibility and honest InnerLoopExhaustion when all admissible candidates are rejected.
  4. ADR-0025 adds rotor/frame admissibility when a region carries a frame_versor.
  5. ADR-0026 replaces static threshold tuning with ranked admissibility and a scale-invariant margin gate.

Runtime contracts for the chain are pinned in docs/runtime_contracts.md.

Pack-layer chain — ADR-0027 through ADR-0045

ADR-0027 through ADR-0045 establish the identity / safety / ethics pack architecture with deterministic remediation, audit completeness, telemetry, operator readout, audit-tour demo, pack measurements, a worked-example medical ethics pack, and long-context comparison measurements.

Evidence-governed domain chain — ADR-0091 through ADR-0103

ADR-0091 through ADR-0103 establish the current domain-ratification substrate:

contract definition
    ↓
reviewer trust root
    ↓
validator / ledger enforcement
    ↓
negative-control fabrication lane
    ↓
reasoning-capable domain ratification
    ↓
language-specific fluency lane attachment

No domain claim should be treated as mature merely because a pack exists. Capability status belongs to the generated ledger and its evidence predicates.

Session logs record the decisions and rationale from individual working sessions. They are not ADRs — they are the narrative record that informed the ADRs.
