Shay f0dbe9a57c feat(adr-0024): inner-loop per-rotor admissibility — Accepted
Flag-gated semantic change to generate(): when
inner_loop_admissibility=True and a non-unconstrained region is
supplied, each per-step selection is re-evaluated by check_transition
with admissibility_threshold; rejected candidates are excluded and
the walk re-selects until admitted or every admissible candidate is
exhausted (ValueError = honest refusal, same shape as ADR-0022 §2).

Default False — every legacy call site keeps ADR-0023 boundary-only
semantics, and the new AdmissibilityTraceStep.rejected_attempts field
is folded into canonical() only when non-empty, so trace_hash bytes
are byte-identical with ADR-0023 turns.

Invariants preserved: rotor V is only built for the admitted
candidate, so versor_condition < 1e-6 still holds at propagate_step;
no new normalization site; no new I/O / dynamic imports.

Tests: tests/test_inner_loop_admissibility.py covers the four
acceptance properties — default off preserves behavior, rejection
drives re-selection, exhaustion raises ValueError, empty
rejected_attempts is omitted from canonical(). Full pytest: 927
passed, 1 pre-existing unrelated failure (test_language_pack_cache).

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 They are permanent records — superseded ADRs are archived, not deleted.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.
