Re-checks every load-bearing claim of an external architectural assessment (18 observations + a five-pillar blueprint) against the tree, by reading the implicated code and, where possible, executing it. Headline: Workbench records a proved deduction answer as ungrounded. With deduction_serving_enabled ratified ON, chat/runtime.py stamps TurnEvent.grounding_source="deduction", and workbench/api.py's _coerce_grounding_source whitelist silently rewrites it to "none". Verified by running workbench.api._run_chat_turn, not by reading. Scope is one field: epistemic_state still reads epistemic_state_needed (honest) because workbench/api.py:818 prefers the TurnEvent's own value. The unregistered path degrades honestly; the hand-copied whitelist asserts a falsehood. Falsified items, with evidence: - parents[n] audit — run: 168 sites, 0 outside the repo root. - realizer-guard exemption — documented at both guard sites. - T12 — present in the weekly-audit stragglers TODO. - assert_corpus_sound — already domain-parameterized and called unconditionally. - promotion oracle — already the wrong=0 lane gate, per tier-s-housekeeping §3. - accrue_realized_knowledge — a session-memory deployment profile, not a debt clock. - cross-subject proof — resolve_domain fails closed on ambiguity. Also corrects the blueprint's flagship item: EntailmentTrace carries BDD node keys, not derivation steps, so multi-step articulation is engine work (proof-term extraction), not a rendering-layer gap. And records that the "second subject arena" premise is falsified by the curriculum-volume measurement — 11 bands across 4 subjects already route, all 24x-73x short. Companion Apple Silicon/MLX blueprint assessed: both premises contradicted by the repo's own benchmark report (no MLX in any runtime path; Rust backend opt-in and off). One of five items adopted (typestate), one rejected on numerics (bf16 against a 1e-6 gate). [Verification]: docs-only change; no code paths touched. Findings themselves were executed against a scratch venv — the repo pins ==3.12.13, which uv cannot fetch for linux-x86_64, so the pin was left untouched.

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.
