`packs.compiler._blend_feature_versors` ignores its strength argument and
returns the target verbatim. All three "nudge" sites — cross-language alignment
(0.10), morphology clustering (0.40), mount-time domain resonance (0.40) — are
therefore total overwrites, and ADR-0015's two explicit requirements ("a
weighted graph, not a translation table"; "without flattening their
distinctions") are violated bit-exactly.
Measured: mounting the depth packs onto English REMOVES 37 distinct coordinates
(239 surfaces -> 202 points). English alone is collision-free (220/220), Greek
alone is collision-free (11/11), so the loss is created by the mount. Nine
English question words -- ask, question, what, who, where, how, why, when,
which -- share one coordinate, dragged there by a single Greek verb in their
primary domain. `word`, `דבר`, `דברים` and `λόγος` are one point. English is the
mount-time prototype, so the design's depth-anchor roles run backwards: the
depth languages are deleted into the articulation surface.
Four more findings in the same layer:
* 63 of 83 authored alignment edges resolve to nothing -- including every edge
of the two packs serving actually grounds HE/GRC against -- because
`_infer_foreign_pack_ids` maps id prefixes through a table hardcoded to the
original three packs, and a miss is a silent `continue`. The corpus was
grown 7.5x; the growth was never connected.
* `algebra.holonomy.holonomy_encode` never closes. The reverse walk was
deleted at

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 — 23 entries (G-21, G-22, G-23 added during execution), 4 tiers, each with evidence + deciding authority; supersedes docs/gaps.md and the substrate-liveness ratchet per R-7 |
31-hindrance-audit.md |
4 | Fourteen hindrances with fitness verdicts and better homes; seventeen candidates examined and cleared — five in Phase 4, six in the first 2026-07-28 external-assessment triage, six in the second (of which one, the pack/domain seam, survived as G-23) |
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 nine corrections to the assessment found while sizing and executing it; §2.1 carries the adopted ruling docket and its execution order |
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. RULED 2026-07-28: twelve adopted, R-10 and R-14 stricken, §5 NO-GO ratified. Carries the standing delegation under which residual sub-questions are decided, and marks each ruling EXECUTED as it lands |
../specs/postures.md |
— | The posture statements (R-1/R-5/R-6/R-11) — efferent-action deferral, the identity-enforcement discrimination bar, non-text-ingest deferral, each with the criterion that would change it; plus P-4, the interim fabrication gate withdrawn because measurement dissolved its premise |
../specs/flag_register.md |
— | The flag register (PR-5, R-3 + R-4) — all 32 RuntimeConfig booleans by class, governing ADR, and what evidence flips it; profiles as the unit of decision; §5 indexes every declared table in the repository and the pin that makes each true |
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.
Execution status (2026-07-28). Phases 0–6 produced the evidence; the arc that followed executed everything needing no ruling, Wave 0 closed (twelve rulings adopted, two stricken, the §5 NO-GO ratified), and the entire adopted docket is now executed in its corrected order — R-7 → R-12 → R-3+R-4 → R-9+R-2 → R-13 → R-8 → R-1/R-5/R-6/R-11. Landed: Track A's §5 verdict (pre-registered), PR-1, PR-3+PR-3b, PR-4 (+pin 3), PR-4b, PR-5, PR-6, PR-7, PR-9, PR-11, PR-12, PR-14, R-12's ADR amendments, the posture statements, and five defect fixes (H-13, H-8e, G-22, G-23, plus pin 3's own union blind spot).
Closed: G-5…G-12, G-15, G-17, G-19, G-22, H-1, H-6, H-7, H-8 (all five instances), H-11, H-13. Added: N-8, N-9, G-21, G-22, G-23, H-13, H-14. Wave 4's F-6 half-gate is lifted. The gate is now four steps (smoke + warmed_session + deductive + teaching).
Three results worth reading before the registers. (1) ADR-0252 §5 returned NO-GO against a pre-registered criterion — the geometric structure-mapper is refuted for its embedding class, and §6's organ-retirement condition was amended because a NO-GO made it unsatisfiable as written. (2) Served capability shrank on purpose: the Wilson re-count took deduction from 25 licensed shape-bands to 4, and the curriculum outcome-mix rule dissolved the four licences N-5 predicted — in both cases wrong stayed 0, so no answer changed, only the claim attached to it. (3) R-11's instrumentation dissolved its own question: nothing is syntactically outside the verified inventory, because one of the 19 constructions matches any string — so the fabrications are mis-reads of admissible surfaces, and the fabrication ADR inherits the boundary question.
What remains is the next arc, not this one — see 50-execution-plan.md §Status and §2.1.
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.
