Shay 5027adf8cb docs(adr-0244-d4): RATIFIED — ADR-0244 + ADR-0245 Proposed→Accepted (Joshua Shay)

Governance flip carrying Joshua Shay's ratification provenance inline (ruling
2026-07-17: "Ratify both"). Anti-self-Accept guard satisfied — status flips are
authorized by explicit human ruling, not self-issued.

- ADR-0245 → **Accepted** (clean): mechanical-sympathy + semantic-rigor §3 gate
  green — parity, f32 467× speedup, 0-LAPACK-on-repeat, collision-resistance.
- ADR-0244 → **Accepted as an implemented mechanism** with a RATIFIED
  live-activation limitation: identity_wave_gate stays default-off and live
  activation is NOT authorized. Acceptance covers the operator-preservation
  manifold, fail-closed gate capability, γ_id calibration, telemetry, and
  lifecycle contracts — not a production flip. The Phase-3 calibration explicitly
  did NOT authorize activation (benign traffic not separable at the nominal
  frame; best balanced error 0.346). Activation is blocked pending a separately
  ratified ADR-0246 (induced action, lawful stabilizer, path integrity,
  semantic-frame discrimination) + renewed discrimination evidence + acceptable
  benign refusal rate + explicit human ratification.

Governance additions (per the ruling): both ADR status lines carry
"Accepted — ratified by Joshua Shay … acceptance-packet" (provenance-guard
format); ADR-0244 header carries the Operational-status limitation paragraph + a
machine-readable identity_wave_gate: ledger block (implementation: accepted /
live_activation: not_authorized / default: off); both packet §8 RULING RECORDs
RATIFIED with the "not safe-to-activate" caveat prominent. Plan doc Phase 6 → DONE.

[Verification]: smoke 176 passed; provenance/ADR pins + all ADR-0244/0245 tests
503 passed (both-Accepted-with-provenance format enforced). Docs-only.

ADR-0245 — D4 Acceptance Packet for Joshua

Arc: ADR-0245 CGA Unification: Mechanical Sympathy & Semantic Rigor — the foundation ADR-0244's identity gate sits on. Committed as a real companion ADR in D4 Phase 0; its D4 scope (§2.2 cast, §2.3 residual, §3 gate) closed across Phases 4–5. Evidence base: feat/adr-0244-d4 @ 8ef80daa (Phases 0–5 on main). Status of ADR-0245: Accepted — ratified by Joshua Shay on 2026-07-17. All four §3 legs green; no live-serving caveat. §8 is RATIFIED.

1. Evidence summary (what is proven, and how)

ADR §	Claim	Built as	Evidence	Verdict
§2.1	PyO3 Rust `geometric_product` f32 fast-path	`algebra/backend.py` (pre-existing), gated behind `CORE_BACKEND=rust`	f32 parity + dispatch-hygiene tests	Supported
§2.2	Gated f64→f32 serving boundary	`serving_cast(...) → ServingState` (== ADR-0244 §2.5)	`test_adr_0244_serving_cast.py` (10): certified/admitted-only, precision-checked, f64 stays source of truth	Supported
§2.3	Semantic rigor in content addressing	D1 hot path + Phase 5a: 4 residual content-ids → full 256-bit, no `default=str`, LE byte-order	`schema`/`plan_preflight`/`articulation_quality`/`holographic_vault`; collision proof below	Supported
§2.4	`_cached_eigh` memoization (LAPACK once per content-addressed H)	`cognitive_lifecycle._cached_eigh` (D2)	`test_adr_0244_mechanical_sympathy.py`: cache hit → identical objects, no fresh `eigh`	Supported
§3	Acceptance gate: parity ∧ ≥10× f32 speedup ∧ 0-LAPACK-on-repeat ∧ collision-resistance	`test_adr_0245_acceptance_gate.py` + parity/mechanical-sympathy suites	see §2 below	All four legs green

2. §3 acceptance gate — the four legs

Parity — Rust GP bit-identical to Python: f64 N=10,000 (test_geometric_product_f64_parity.py) + f32 component-exact (test_geometric_product_rust_parity.py). ✅
≥10× f32 speedup — test_adr_0245_acceptance_gate.py::test_rust_f32_geometric_product_is_at_least_10x, Rust-guarded (skips with a reason where core_rs is unbuilt), with a parity sanity check so the speedup can't come from skipped work. Measured on Apple M-series this arc: rust 2.86 µs/op vs python 1340 µs/op = 467× (assertion is a conservative ≥10× for CI timing robustness). ✅
0 LAPACK on repeat — test_adr_0244_mechanical_sympathy.py (_cached_eigh cache hit returns identical (evals, evecs)). ✅
Collision-resistance — _content_id full 256-bit, type/structure-faithful (int≠str, bool≠int, nested-sensitive, key-order-invariant), fails closed on non-serializable input (no default=str collapse); _psi_digest sub-epsilon sensitive + deterministic. A coverage-manifest test maps all four legs to their home files. ✅

3. Deferred items (NOT completion blockers)

Rust §5 SIMD / MLX / 64-byte-alignment acceleration — a separate optimization backlog, not this ADR's D4 scope.
The f32 speedup is measured where core_rs is built; the committed test skips (visibly, with a reason) on runners without the Rust extension. The default backend remains pure-Python (CORE_BACKEND unset), so no serve-path behavior depends on the Rust build.

4. Gate results

Landed across D4 Phases 0 (commit), 4 (§2.2), 5a (§2.3), 5d (§3). Phase 5 gate: smoke 176; fast lane 12032 passed, 25 skipped (with a local core_rs build, the ~126 Rust-parity + f32-speedup tests ran live, all green); 43 Phase-5 targeted tests.

5. Requested action

Rule on the ADR-0245 arc. All four §3 legs are green and the two D4 build items (§2.2 cast, §2.3 residual) are complete. If you rule Ratify, the follow-up one-line governance commit flips **Status**: Proposed → **Accepted** — ratified by Joshua Shay <date> and records the ruling in §8. I have not flipped the status; it awaits your explicit word.

8. RULING RECORD

RATIFIED — Joshua Shay, 2026-07-17. ADR-0245 accepted on its clean mechanical-sympathy + semantic-rigor evidence — all four §3 legs green (parity, f32 467× speedup, 0-LAPACK-on-repeat, collision-resistance), independent of the ADR-0244 identity gate. Status flipped Proposed → Accepted on 2026-07-17 with provenance inline.
