investigated, four new entries from L8
Audit milestone: all 9 substrate layers audited. L8 (PR #250) and
L9 (PR #249) merged to close the audit phase. The ratchet transitions
from "audit-driven entry addition" to "wiring-progress driven
closure."
Status updates:
- W-004 ✅ CLOSED via PR #251 (first non-trivial wiring closure from
the audit). Vault recall now stamps E2 EnergyProfile per ADR-0006.
Unlocks W-005 (energy-modulated readback now meaningful).
- W-015 ⏳ INVESTIGATED via PR #252 (Sonnet). Verdict (c) confirmed
with bimodal-distribution evidence across 4,138 samples. Root cause:
_slerp_toward interpolates on S^31 but versor manifold is a proper
subset. Fix in flight (rotor geodesic via Lie group exponential).
Four new W-NNN entries from L8 audit:
- W-016 — Contemplation operates without vault probe. Independent
mechanical fix at ChatRuntime._emit_discovery_candidates call site.
- W-017 — Automated T1/T2 → T3 promotion absent (ADR-0055's own
"what is missing"). Chained: needs W-009 (HITL async queue) +
W-016 (vault probe) first.
- W-018 — ADR-0080 contemplation not autonomous. Chained: needs W-008
(L10 runtime model) first.
- W-019 — from_miner.py / from_curriculum.py test-live only. Operator
decision: CLI wiring (smallest), runtime invocation (via W-017), or
document as offline-library-only.
L9 audit added no new W-NNN entries; the refusal-reason
materialization matrix consolidates prior findings (W-011, W-012)
from the verdict-surface side. Safety, opt-in ethics, default-audit
ethics, and hedge injection all CLOSED in the matrix per design.
Updated:
- Title v3 → v4
- Subtitle "L0-L7 + L10 scope" → "L0-L9 + L10 scope"
- Dependency graph: W-004 marked FIXED, W-015 marked INVESTIGATED,
new entries placed in their dependency lanes
- Suggested next-ADR sequence reordered: W-015 fix leads (in flight),
followed by W-011, W-012, W-016 as the quick-wins lane
- Items-deferred section transitioned from "L8-L9 pending" to "audit
complete; future revisions are wiring-progress driven"
Tally so far: 5 of 19 W-NNN entries closed (W-001, W-002, W-004
fully closed; W-015 investigated and fix in flight; the rest of the
quick-wins lane is now safely dispatchable post-L9).
