Adds evals/register_diagnostics/run_firing_diagnostic.py. For every
ratified register pack, runs every cognition case and reports
whether the opening and closing markers actually fired (non-empty
selection from the bucket).
Why this exists. The 100-pack widened tour revealed that some packs
collapse to baseline on certain prompts — their non-empty marker
entries simply don't get selected by the SHA-256 seed for that
particular (seed_text, register_id, turn_idx) combination. Without
a diagnostic, collapses are only visible by eyeballing surfaces.
The diagnostic surfaces three pack categories:
* silent : neither marker ever fires (empty buckets) —
legitimate for terse_v1, succinct_v1, the
A_depth knob-only registers; suspicious
elsewhere
* sometimes_firing : 0 < observed_rate < 1 — '' is in the bucket
so the register "feels lighter"; quiet turns
mixed in (e.g. socratic_v1, convivial_v1)
* always_firing : opening_observed_rate == 1 — no '' in bucket;
most expressive (no current packs hit this on
both buckets)
For each (pack, cognition lane) cell it reports bucket_rate (the
structural ceiling, fraction of non-empty entries in bucket) and
observed_rate (fraction of cases where the marker actually fires).
Findings on the current 100-pack catalog:
* 92 packs: sometimes_firing — most pack designs working as
intended; observed_rate tracks bucket_rate within statistical
noise of the 45-case sample
* 8 packs: silent
- 7 by design (default_neutral/terse/precise/formal/succinct/
expansive/exhaustive — A_depth + the seven-ratified neutral
anchors)
- 1 flagged for review: expert_v1 (D_posture); only D_posture
pack without populated marker buckets — may have been an
authoring miss given peer/mentor/student/scholar/practitioner/
novice/narrator/journalist/elder are all populated
* 2 packs: closings 0% (assertive_v1, blunt_v1) — side effect of
removing the bare '.' closing in the previous commit, leaving
only [""] in the closing bucket. A future content pass may want
to add ' — period.'-style separator-prefixed entries to round
out the register without re-introducing the punctuation bug.
* 1 pack: openings 0% (epigram_v1) — by design? epigrams are
short and pointed; closings still fire 42.2%
Usage:
PYTHONPATH=. .venv/bin/python -m evals.register_diagnostics.run_firing_diagnostic
PYTHONPATH=. .venv/bin/python -m evals.register_diagnostics.run_firing_diagnostic --json > firing.json
Operator-only utility; mirrors the eval-artifact convention used by
evals/register_tour/run_tour.py and evals/anchor_lens_tour/run_tour.py.
