Squashes the arc's work into one commit; the workflow-file edit it originally carried is excluded (see the end of this message). ## Lane 1 — Workbench recorded a proved answer as ungrounded With deduction_serving_enabled ratified ON (ADR-0256), workbench/api.py's live chat route builds a bare ChatRuntime(), so the deduction composer decides Workbench turns and stamps grounding_source="deduction" — but _coerce_grounding_source carried a hand-copied whitelist of the six pre-arc labels and silently rewrote anything else to "none". The runtime comment reasoned this was inert because "REPL turns do not flow through Workbench's CognitivePipelineRecord path". True, and irrelevant: the traffic flows the other way. Stale since 2026-07-24. Scope is one field. workbench/api.py:818 prefers TurnEvent.epistemic_state, which read epistemic_state_needed — honest. So the UNregistered path degraded honestly while the hand-copied whitelist asserted a falsehood; a second copy of a closed enum was worse than no copy. Hence registration AND derivation: GROUNDING_SOURCES exposes the Literal's members, and the coercion reads it. workbench-ui badges/tokens/snapshot follow; enumCoverage.test.ts forces atomicity. ## Lane 2 — the ratification ceremony The discovery loop was instrumented but not closed. teaching/ratification.py turns a reviewed decision into a chain record, a corpus commit, and a receipt. Its design turns on one observation: _ratified_rows DROPS unadmissible rows silently — correct when serving, a trap when ratifying, because the file grows, the commit lands, and the band count does not move. So the ceremony refuses to call an append a ratification until it has re-read the curriculum through the real loader and seen the chain arrive; a non-admitted append is rolled back. Validation is a pre-flight courtesy, admission is the proof. Arena queue entry and ledger reseal are deliberately NOT performed (bridge rule 1); the receipt names them. Front door: `core proposal-queue ratify`, a sibling of `review` rather than a flag on it. ## Lane 3 — structural closures - ADR-0263 gains rule 5: absence policy is DECLARED in CAPABILITY_LEDGERS, not passed at the call site. An AST-matched test fails if a serving path passes missing_ok again. - Deductive suite added WHOLE to the pre-push gate: 285 tests in 29s against smoke's 216 in 62s, so no coverage trade was needed. - Smoke/CI parity assertion made bidirectional. It was one-directional, and had drifted. - test_prior_surface_deduction_binding.py pins correction binding on the deduction path. The review's diagnosis did NOT reproduce — hash_surface moves in lockstep — so it pins what is there. Mutation-checked. - Domain-keyed ADR index over 312 flat-numbered files, explicitly partial. - Arc-close brief template, plus this arc's own brief filled in against it. ## Lanes 4 and 5 — two premises falsified by measurement, one of them mine Math 4.2: baseline reproduced (correct=5 wrong=0 refused=495); all four named cases traced to one seam with each gap isolated by one-variable probes. Then the number that changes the recommendation: the gap blocking case 0000 affects 1 case in 500, the 'than' gap blocking 0001 affects 2. ADR-0251's prohibition on per-case growth now rests on a count. No reader change made. CGA: versor_condition is 0.22% of a turn, not the "~10x proof latency" I claimed — that multiplied an isolated microbenchmark by a call count and compared it to a single verdict's latency. The real cost is geometric_product at 33,986 calls/turn (~73%) via cga_inner in search paths. The obvious closed form is NOT bit-exact (954/4000 in f32); backend.vault_recall's serial fold IS (3000/3000, worst-rel 0) and is the correct target. cargo test could not run — static.crates.io is denied by the sandbox network policy — so the Rust parity question stays open and the typestate lane is carried forward, not shipped uncompiled. ## Not landed: three lines owed to .github/workflows/smoke.yml The CI smoke gate is narrower than the local one — test_pack_draft_serve_boundary.py (ADR-0253 INV-33) has been local-only, unseen because the parity pin checked one direction. The edit was authored and rejected at push for lacking the `workflow` OAuth scope, so it is recorded as a named, dated PENDING_IN_CI exception rather than dropped: the assertion still fires on any new divergence, and a second guard fires once the three land. [Verification]: pre-push gates all green — smoke 236 passed, warmed_session 10 passed, deductive 285 passed. Ratification 14, ADR index 5, CLI suites 10. Grounding/epistemic sweep 741 passed 1 skipped. workbench-ui 598 passed across 73 files, tsc -b clean. capability index 11 passed, digest unchanged. Math holdout correct=5 wrong=0 refused=495. Committed chain corpora byte-unchanged after the tests that write to them. Environment caveat: the repo pins requires-python ==3.12.13, which uv cannot fetch for linux-x86_64, so `uv sync --locked` fails. All Python runs used a scratch venv on 3.12.11 with declared deps — not the locked universe, not the full ~12k suite. The pin was left untouched. Re-run on a 3.12.13 host before treating this as merge evidence. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01FduW6Krm3PPQv3P5iwBYtx |

CORE Workbench UI
React/Vite/TypeScript frontend for CORE Workbench — a local operator/auditor UI
over the deterministic engine. 16 registry-driven routes (src/app/routes.ts):
chat; trace (per-turn pipeline / field-invariant / leeway / evidence-bundle
tabs); contemplation; guided determinism tour; replay (hash-to-hash); demos;
proposals + HITL ratification; evals (wrong=0 ledger); calibration
(gold-tether arena); runs; lived-life; vault; packs; CORE-Logos; audit; and
settings. Read-only by default, with allowlisted execution only.
Local development
# Terminal 1 — start the API (W-026)
uv run core workbench api
# Terminal 2 — start the frontend
cd workbench-ui
pnpm install
pnpm dev # http://127.0.0.1:5173
Custom API URL
VITE_WORKBENCH_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9000 pnpm dev
Design system baseline
pnpm preview # Serves dist/ on http://127.0.0.1:4173
# Navigate to /preview for the Branch 1 design-system baseline
Tests
pnpm test # Vitest unit + component tests
pnpm test:enum-coverage # Badge enum coverage (requires uv)
pnpm build # TypeScript + Vite production build
Schema drift detection
The TypeScript types in src/types/api.ts mirror workbench/schemas.py.
To check for drift after Python schema changes:
# From repo root
uv run python scripts/dump-api-schemas.py
# Then run: pnpm test (api.test.ts catches field-level drift)
Architecture
src/app/— Shell, TopBar, LeftNav, StatusFooter, ApiErrorBoundary, and the route surfaces insrc/app/<route>/.src/app/routes.tsis the single route registry (feeds App, LeftNav, command palette, shortcuts, and conformance).src/api/— apiFetch client, TanStack Query hooks.src/types/— TypeScript mirrors of Python schemas (src/types/api.ts).src/routes/— the Chat route entry.src/design/— design-system substrate (tokens, primitives, doctrine gates).
Catch-up doctrine
The Workbench is an evidence surface, not a mutation console. New UI work must only render backend-provided read models, committed artifacts, or existing allowlisted execution paths. Proposal-first construction evidence, residual-gated practice traces, generalization audit reports, and CORE-Logos pack evidence must remain diagnostic/read-only unless a later ADR admits a narrow handler path.
