- docs/testing-lanes.md + Makefile: recommended determinism regression invocation (uv run python -m evals.close_derived_climb + contract pytest) as part of standard verification story / rerun flows. - evals/anti_regression/run_demo.py + tests/test_anti_regression_demo.py: hermetic embedding of the yardstick (lived IdleTickResult flag, semantic determine rule=direct, content_replay_checksum) into the core anti-regression / teaching demo flow (core demo anti-regression now carries + reports the Claim-B signals; active corpus remains untouched). - Supporting docs: contract.md (uv + refs), anti_regression_demo.md (complementary note), runtime_contracts.md (determination surface cross-ref). - New ratification artifact (pre-impl) + all success criteria met. See ratification for chosen approach + why only correct path. All existing tests/invariants green; hermeticity preserved; no core/engine changes.

CLOSE Derived Climb Yardstick (PR-3, hardened for Claim B)
This lane measures the monotone growth in directly-answerable set enabled by:
- PR #788: relational transitive CLOSE (less/greater/before/after now consolidate like is-a)
- PR #789: derived facts emit review proposals when flag enabled
Metrics (Claim A + Claim B)
- direct_answerable_before / after_tick_1 / after_fixed_point (vault growth)
- wrong_total (must 0; negatives and excluded preds refused)
- proposals_only_with_flag (measured via real ChatRuntime.idle_tick() + IdleTickResult.derived_close_proposals_emitted; >0 only when review_derived_close_proposals=True)
- semantic_positives_determined_direct (explicit determine() calls on positives post-fixed-point assert Determined(True) with rule='direct')
- replay_checksum (aggregates for compatibility)
- content_replay_checksum (canonical closure sets with structure_key + Derivation/premise_structure_keys + proposal bodies for exact-trajectory fidelity)
Scenarios
- is-a (member/subset) climb
- less_than relational climb
- before_event temporal climb
- parent/sibling negatives refused (wrong=0)
- proposal emission gated by flag (lived idle_tick path)
No side effects
- No change to serving, determine, or ratification.
- Uses real idle_tick path with flags for consolidation and proposal emission.
- All realization remains SPECULATIVE; proposals are proposal_only + requires_review.
Run: uv run python -m evals.close_derived_climb Replays the exact trajectories (aggregates + full content) for audit. Now qualifies as full lived-runtime Claim B yardstick per post-merge hardening audit.
Integrated into the project's standard determinism regression and teaching/anti-regression surfaces (see docs/testing-lanes.md "Recommended determinism / teaching regression invocation", docs/evals/anti_regression_demo.md, and the integration ratification docs/analysis/integrate-hardened-close-yardstick-determinism-teaching-regression-ratification-2026-06-16.md). The prior Claim-B hardening ratification is at docs/analysis/close-derived-climb-yardstick-claim-b-ratification-2026-06-16.md.
