Ratified by Shay 2026-07-24. Default flipped False -> True. Evidence at ratification: - 25 shape-bands, each holding SERVE at 720/720 wrong=0 on the SHA-sealed ratified ledger (theta_SERVE=0.99, n >= 657 committed per band); - deduction-serve lane 166/166 wrong=0 across six hand-authored splits; - commit gate narrow by construction — a sentence-initial "therefore" IS an argument, so the composer cannot claim turns that are not one; - an unearned shape is still served DISCLOSED, never asserted. Blast radius verified, not assumed: core test --suite deductive 268 passed with the flag ON by default; a live default-config ChatRuntime decides real English and existential arguments through grounding_source="deduction" while ordinary turns still fall through to pack grounding; lane pins 10/11 match — unchanged by the flip (the single miss is the pre-existing public_demo drift documented for Tier S). Rollback is flipping this back: flag-off remains byte-identical to pre-arc dispatch and leaves no residue, pinned by test_flag_off_preserves_pack_token_gloss_byte_identity. curriculum_serving_enabled stays OFF — every curriculum band is unearned, and the Sonnet brief now records the explicit bar for revisiting it. |

CORE Documentation Index
This is the central index for all documentation in the CORE project.
Canonical Root Documents
- Whitepaper.md - The CORE architectural and philosophical whitepaper.
- Yellowpaper.md - Technical specifications and mathematical formulation of the CORE engine.
- PROGRESS.md - High-level project progress tracking.
- specs/runtime_contracts.md - Critical invariants and bounds for the runtime execution flow.
Directories
Architecture & Design
- adr/ - Architecture Decision Records (ADRs). The canonical history of all ratified engineering choices.
- architecture/ - High-level architectural documents (e.g., pipelines, schemas).
- analysis/ - Deep dives and master plans for structural changes.
- specs/ - Detailed technical specifications and invariants.
Planning & Progress
- plans/ - Capability roadmaps and implementation plans.
- briefs/ - Project briefs and scoping documents for upcoming work.
- issues/ - Detailed issue analyses and technical reproductions (not standard trackers).
- audit/ - Audit reports and claims ledgers.
Operations & Usage
- examples/ - Usage examples and reference integrations.
- workbench/ - Documentation for the CORE workbench UI and related tooling.
- agents/ - Agent-specific operational guides.
Note regarding
agents/grok/: Operational guide for using Grok 4.3 + Grok Build with CORE. This is not architecture documentation.
Learning & Evaluation
- curriculum/ - Documentation on the teaching/learning order and knowledge progression.
- evals/ - Evaluation methodology and performance criteria documentation.
- benchmarks/ - Benchmark evidence and performance tracking logs.
Historical & Experimental
- sessions/ - Chronological session logs documenting the "decision trail" and intellectual history of major choices.
- handoffs/ - Legacy brief, audit, and investigation notes (historical; the formal HANDOFF mechanism is retired — see AGENTS.md for the current lightweight
session-break-summary-<DATETIME>.mdconvention). - research/ - Raw research notes and preliminary findings.
- lab/ - Experimental content (Warning: Not ratified; must not be referenced as authoritative in production PRs).
