Phase 4 lane #2 (long_context_cost) measured vault.recall latency as a function of vault size N. The pre-vectorisation curve was median 875 ms at N=1k, ~9 s at N=10k — unfit for runtime use. ADR-0019 Stage 1 replaces the per-element Python dispatch loop in algebra/backend.py::vault_recall with a vectorised exact scan over the diagonal Cl(4,1) CGA inner-product metric. Per-versor serial component reduction order is preserved, so scores are bit-identical to the scalar cga_inner path. CLAUDE.md exactness is preserved; no approximate recall is introduced. Post-vectorisation: 0.217 ms at N=1k, 20.795 ms at N=100k. Slope 0.99 (linear). ~4,000-5,000x speedup at every probed N. Smoke, algebra, and runtime suites all green. Stages 2 (norm-bucketed exact pre-filter) and 3 (layered store with deterministic promotion) are documented in ADR-0019 but deferred — Stage 1 has dissolved the bottleneck at the scales relevant to current curriculum work. |

Architecture Decision Records
This directory contains the Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for the CORE project.
ADRs record significant architectural decisions: what was decided, why, what alternatives were considered, and what consequences follow. They are permanent records — superseded ADRs are archived, not deleted.

Session Logs
Session logs record the decisions and rationale from individual working sessions. They are not ADRs — they are the narrative record that informed the ADRs.
