Track A of docs/assessment/50-execution-plan.md §6, executed under its own protocol. Criterion pre-registered at dfc394d2 (that commit carries the thresholds as importable constants and NO results); this commit carries the run. VERDICT: NO-GO. Full credit by ADR-0252 §5.4's own terms. docs/research/sme-experiment-verdict-797ebad5.md evals/structure_mapping/adr0252_s5/results/report-797ebad5.json deterministic_digest b3d9d27592e213104c51bcace7415fd819d722a1b06f7d0a5ca65bd5a234e4ec 53 cases, 1378 pairs, 0.0% non-convergence — no exception contributed to any number. RS-A (structure-only) separates perfectly, AUC 1.0000, margin +0.0867, and fails structure-sensitivity. RS-B (attribute-bearing) fails all three. The mechanism, measured rather than argued: the similarity quotient that would deliver attribute-invariance is the same quotient that annihilates structural contrast. An add-vs-subtract minimal pair — one entity, identical numbers, one relation kind changed — aligns at residual exactly 0.0, its two configurations being related by a PROPER rotation about e1. Sweeping the attribute weight (committed as diagnostic_sweep), structure-sensitivity fails at every setting, and every regime where the SME property survives is a regime where attributes contribute nothing: AUC 1.00 -> 0.97 -> 0.83 -> 0.69 as they begin to matter. Scope stated narrowly: this refutes H1 for embeddings that encode role-structure as point positions aligned by conformal Procrustes under similarity. The argument is about the quotient, so it generalises across that class; it does not refute every Cl(4,1) representation, and it does not touch the symbolic structure-mapping lane already in evals/structure_mapping/. Two findings that were on nobody's list: N-8 — the experiment was NOT unrun. rnd/sme-experiment-v2 @ |

docs/assessment/ — The Holistic Macro→Micro Assessment (2026-07-27)
A read-only, evidence-bearing assessment of CORE's cognitive-cycle design versus implementation fulfillment, conducted under docs/conceptualizing_engineering_mastery.md at forgejo/main @ 8927c563. Phases 0–5 change no runtime behavior, fix no defect, and decide nothing — they produce evidence and judgments for ruling. Phase 6 adds the execution plan built on them and the ruling packet they require.
Start here: 40-assessment.md — the synthesis (the verdict, the five frontiers, the recommended attack order). Then 50-execution-plan.md for what follows from it, and 50-rulings.md for what is waiting on a decision. The registers rank the work; the cards are the evidence base.
| File / dir | Phase | What it is |
|---|---|---|
00-scope-and-method.md |
— | Charter, method, rules of engagement, phase/executor table |
01-phase0-ground-truth.md |
0 | Corpus triage, the five unreconciled articulations, system-map recovery |
02-layer-taxonomy.md |
1 | The two-axis taxonomy: 7 macro layers + 2 cross-cuts over 33 zones; the Candidate Register (CR-1…4); completeness criteria |
03-card-schema.md |
1 | The card metadata schema: liveness ⊥ fitness, design ⊥ build, sabotage-tested evidence, verified_at stamps |
10-layer-cards/ |
2 | Nine layer cards (M0–M6, MG, MV), every liveness label re-verified against code |
04-phase2-findings.md |
2 | Stage-coverage audit; corrections to Phase 0; findings F-1…F-5 |
20-component-cards/ |
3 | Eight component cards: the four zero-subsystem zones + always-on, derivation organs, surface selection, attention |
05-phase3-findings.md |
3 | Corrections C-1…C-5; findings F-6…F-10; the consolidated Phase-4 seed list |
30-gap-register.md |
4 | The live gap register — 20 entries, 4 tiers, each with evidence + deciding authority (proposes superseding docs/gaps.md); four entries amended in Phase 6 |
31-hindrance-audit.md |
4 | Twelve hindrances with fitness verdicts and better homes; five candidates examined and cleared |
40-assessment.md |
5 | The synthesis |
50-execution-plan.md |
6 | The execution plan — five waves + five frontier tracks over every G/H entry, with the dependency gates and the risks. §0 carries seven corrections to the assessment found while sizing it |
50-rulings.md |
6 | The ruling packet — R-1…R-14, each with evidence, options, a recommendation, and the exact diff that follows from each choice. Wave 0's deliverable |
Maintenance contract (from §8 of the synthesis): a card whose verified_at falls behind a load-bearing arc is testimony, not evidence. Update cards when their subsystems move, or this directory becomes the next dead instrument it was built to replace.
Standing note: the PR #138 fabrication findings appear throughout as measured & pinned, fix held for ADR + ratification — recorded, never re-discovered, never fixed here, per explicit instruction.
