* feat(derivation): capability strike batch 4 goal-residual lift

Scout-guided Batch 4 re-wires resolve_promotable_goal_residual serving
promotion (Gate A2e) for train_sample 0037. product_bridge stays disabled
per held-out wrong=0 bisection.

Ephemeral train_sample: 9/41/0 → 10/40/0, wrong=0 preserved.
report.json untouched.

* test(gsm8k): refresh composition corpus prose for A2e

* fix(derivation): refuse comparative goal-residual questions

* test(derivation): guard goal-residual against comparative more-than

GSM8K Capability Strike Batch 4 — Lookback (2026-06-17)

Scout-guided target selection

Scout run (scripts/gsm8k_sealed_attempt_scout.py --limit 50) on #813 baseline:

Serving	Sealed (resolve_pooled)
9 / 41 / 0	3 / 39 / 8

Top lift recommendations:

lift_skill_gap_recognized_no_injection_discrete_count_statement — cases 0003, 0021 (n=2)
Same family — case 0037 (n=1)

Scout interpretation: First refusal on 0037 is DCS no-injection on the goal clause, but sealed/aggressive compose_goal_residual already commits 3.0. The coherent family is goal_residual (R4), not discrete_count_statement injection.

Deferred (scout + bisection):

0003/0021 — resolve_promotable_product works on train_sample but product_bridge is 0 correct / 5 wrong on held-out 1,319; stays disabled.
0007/0047/0004 — no sealed-correct signal; higher wrong-risk.

Baseline (ephemeral, pre-change)

Metric	Value
correct	9
refused	41
wrong	0

Committed report.json unchanged (6/44/0 historical pin).

After (ephemeral live scoring)

Metric	Value
correct	10
refused	40
wrong	0

Newly admitted: gsm8k-train-sample-v1-0037
Preserved: 0002, 0008, 0014, 0018, 0024, 0025, 0029, 0038, 0042

Family implemented

Gate A2e goal_residual_question — re-wired serving promotion for resolve_promotable_goal_residual only:

Goal anchor: wants/needs/... + single goal quantity
Progress clauses: licensed change cues, same referent, all subtract
Question: residual-to-goal (meet goal, how much more, …)
Self-verification gate: compose_goal_residual (grounding ∧ unit ∧ completeness ∧ uniqueness)

product_bridge stays disabled (held-out wrong=0 breach).

Why not overfit

No case-id branches; uses existing R4 production + gain-goal divergence firewall (test_r4_goal_residual.py).
Sibling: Maria save/earn goal → 9 (not 31 possession trap).
Confusers refuse: no goal language, no residual question, cross-referent progress.
0003/0021 still refuse (product bridge off).
Held-out bisection documented goal_residual 0/0 (inert); product 5 wrong.
