test(pmu): fence the LLM/decidable email separation at every leak point (strongest version)

"are we properly separating llm emails from the non-llm decidable emails?" — yes,
and now it's guarded so it can't drift. Three new asserts on the receipt path:
  • the COMPETENCE-SHAPE region render must call narrateRegions with useLLM:false,
    and NO narrateRegions in the receipt may enable the LLM (true / !NO_QWEN / !FAST)
    — the exact prior regression (qwen on every --email, an SF13 violation)
  • the LLM storyBlock (email 2) must be gated on --story ONLY, never on --email —
    so the on-commit receipt (email 1) can never fold in the narration
  • the coordinate NAME expansion (reef-coord-name.mjs) is LLM-free — a pure reef read

Together with the existing no-semanticReality / immutable-read / determinism asserts,
the decidable receipt is now provably LLM-free end to end: panel + encircled shapes +
reef-computed coordinate names, all deterministic; the qwen story stays a separate send.

Originating-Terminal: 🧪 laboratory
Relevant-Rooms: 🧪 laboratory, 📐 architect, 🎩 operator
Story: the operator asked to prove the LLM and decidable emails are separated as intended; the guard now red-tests any future attempt to leak an LLM into the receipt render, the coordinate names, or the email-gating.

what you're looking at: the whole map is your competence lattice — both edges are the same 144 ShortLex anchors (what you do × what you act on). Each lit cell is one place this commit said something (its message + docs) and did something (its code). Colour = whether saying and doing landed in the same lane.
green — in lane: you worked where you declared. This is the competence; more green is better.
amber — bleed: code touched a neighbour you didn't mention. A little is normal — nobody declares everything.
red — drift: code fired in an orthogonal lane (the surgeon doing plumbing) and enough of it to flip the aggregate. Red ≈ 0 is what good looks like.
the pink ring is this commit's coordinate — where its work actually concentrated on the lattice.
so, this commit: 441 green, 470 amber, 0 red → off-lane 24% against a 25% tolerance — in lane, some bleed.

A1,A1 Strategy·Law × Strategy·Law → B2,A1 Tactics·Deal × Strategy·Law
read it as actor × patient: this commit is mostly Strategy·Law × Strategy·Law work acting on Tactics·Deal × Strategy·Law (grip 0.750). this is the commit's COORDINATE — where the work lives — not a judgement; the panels below (◎ marks this cell) are what judge it
next: do not act on the panels — on a docs-only commit this is expected; otherwise fix the ingest and re-run
what this instrument measures: drift = what this commit SAID (message + docs) vs what it DID (code), sensed and walked on the chip — a deterministic read, not an LLM opinion. in reading order: ① the verdict (above) → ② the maps (the raw sense grids, then the leaf-walk clouds that bridge them, then DELTA/TOLERANCE judging the result) → ③ the numbers, contextualized (every value with band · verdict · percentile · what it leads to) → ④ expert detail, collapsed (attestation · receipts · timings · σ inputs).

actor seed A1,A1 — EU AI Act Article 14 requires human-on-the-loop oversight, with the supervisor able to interrupt the system at any moment. Compliance attaches to the artifact the artifact cannot escape — provenance is a regulatory primitive, not a feature. Constraints precede objectives. The cap-table, the license text, the consent envelope — each draws the inviolate line the action must respect, and the line is enforced before the optimization runs. A rule names what the system MAY NOT do. If the agent can do X, then 'forbid X' is not the constraint — it is wishful thinking dressed as policy. Constraints live in the gate, not in the prompt. Regulation is not advisory. The fine is the price tag stapled to the omitted control; insurance is the option pricing on the failure-mode the regulation already named.
patient seed B2,A1 — Deal terms and exchange rates must follow the binding mandate and governance rule of law. EU AI Act Article 14 requires human-on-the-loop oversight, with the supervisor able to interrupt the system at any moment. Compliance attaches to the artifact the artifact cannot escape — provenance is a regulatory primitive, not a feature. Constraints precede objectives. The cap-table, the license text, the consent envelope — each draws the inviolate line the action must respect, and the line is enforced before the optimization runs. The deal sets the exchange rate between two value substrates. Mis-priced exchange is a slow-bleed; correctly priced exchange compounds both sides, because each cycle of trade enriches the bench on both ends. Terms are the API between two organizations — every clause is a contract method that survives the handshake. Renegotiation is the breaking change; the deal is the stable interface either side can build against. Negotiation closes at the moment both parties' BATNAs cross. Push past that point and you've bought regret at retail; stop short and you've left margin on the table that the next deal will not return to you. A signed counterparty is more valuable than an unsigned promise. The signature is the substrate; the conversation that preceded it is the exhaust the signature converted into substrate.

test(pmu): fence the LLM/decidable email separation at every leak point (strongest version)

"are we properly separating llm emails from the non-llm decidable emails?" — yes,
and now it's guarded so it can't drift. Three new asserts on the receipt path:
  • the COMPETENCE-SHAPE region render must call narrateRegions with useLLM:false,
    and NO narrateRegions in the receipt may enable the LLM (true / !NO_QWEN / !FAST)
    — the exact prior regression (qwen on every --email, an SF13 violation)
  • the LLM storyBlock (email 2) must be gated on --story ONLY, never on --email —
    so the on-commit receipt (email 1) can never fold in the narration
  • the coordinate NAME expansion (reef-coord-name.mjs) is LLM-free — a pure reef read

Together with the existing no-semanticReality / immutable-read / determinism asserts,
the decidable receipt is now provably LLM-free end to end: panel + encircled shapes +
reef-computed coordinate names, all deterministic; the qwen story stays a separate send.

③ the numbers, contextualized — value · band · verdict · percentile · what it leads to
shape-match σ · -1.11 noise p0 of last 10
no measurable relation between the work and the declared spec → do not act on the panels — on a docs-only commit this is expected; otherwise fix the ingest and re-run
good looks like: positive on an aligned commit (phantom P1: sigmaPositive) · ≥6 clears the trust floor · ≥8.5 verified-reef · 0–3 = panel story not yet evidence
tolerance (edge cells) · 441 green · 470 amber · 0 red · off-lane 24% bleeding p80 of last 10
some reality fired outside the declared lanes — amber bleed, below the alarm flip → glance at the TOLERANCE panel — amber clusters show where reality leaned out
good looks like: red ≈ 0 and orthogonal off-lane < 10% on an in-lane commit (phantom P1: redZero, offPctBelow 10) — a few amber is normal bleed
pre-walk overlap · 3% mostly-disjoint p10 of last 10
docs and code light different cells — normal for a code-heavy commit; the WALK is what bridges them → nothing to do — judge alignment by σ and the walk panels, not this raw overlap
good looks like: green overlap WITHOUT being a copy — near-100% is self-similarity (a docs-only read), not alignment
drift (XOR %) · 1.138% of compared cells disagree close p0 of last 10
intent and reality mostly agree cell-for-cell → nothing to chase
the walks (how the heatmaps were made) · intent 141 hops → ply 6 · reality 128 hops → ply 8 · 947ms inside-budget
both cascades ran to extinction inside the time budget — the read is complete · each hop = one real on-chip ballistic process; intent ended at C,A2 · C,A3 · A2,C, reality at C3,B2 — the definers-of-definers the recursion concentrated on → the ply story in the panels is complete
good looks like: both sides finish inside the 2500ms budget; clouds concentrate at block-heads (the ShortLex-ascending follow), early plies heavy, deep plies faint
lattice fill · intent 1963/20736 (9.5%) · reality 911/20736 (4.4%) walkable
a real, walkable lattice (~4% is the density target) — the walk had ground to cover → nothing to do
the ladder — what's climbing · weakest link first
→ weakest · intersection-specific words/tile (median) · 5 (over 144 tiles) → target 70 parent-echo distance 0.93 · author intersection-specific seeds (what does B,A3 say that NEITHER parent says alone?) — the single highest-leverage number in the system
σ_drift (commit panel, median last 10 non-docs-only) · 0.73 (n=10) → target 6 weak distance 0.88 · read the maps as sketch, not evidence — converge the seed library before citing this
σ_response pass count · 32/144 → target 144 thin distance 0.78 · raise seed richness (the reef GDD loop) — pass count follows intersection-specific words
σ_localize (latest targeted edit) · 0.61 @ B3,B3 → target 6 chance distance 0.9 · iterate the ingest until the target zone owns its own edit — the brain-surgeon read does not yet hold
sweep coverage (deterministic top-rank hits) · 23/46 → target 46 majority distance 0.5 · chase the missing tiles in the sweep — each convert lifts σ_panel directly
seed orthogonality (distinct openings) · 143/144 → target 144 converging distance 0.01 · fix the few shared openings — tile-dump-inspect names them
σ_panel (joint rank certainty) · 10.63 → target 6 beyond-doubt distance 0 · cite the distribution-level claim (carry the independence caveat)
next move (picked by the system, not session memory): intersection-specific words/tile (median) is furthest from target weighted by leverage (5 (over 144 tiles) vs target 70 → distance 0.93 × leverage 1 = 0.93) — author intersection-specific seeds (what does B,A3 say that NEITHER parent says alone?) — the single highest-leverage number in the system

# Laboratory 🧪 — Reef-the-spec + A↔B signing → the delegation drift receipt

## WHY (authored in Operator)
The delegation itself should be **measured**, not trusted. The author room (actor) signs the spec as intent; the executing room (patient) signs delivered work; the real on-chip walk measures the drift = "did the room build what the spec asked." That makes the actor–patient pair the delegation subdivision, and dogfoods the signing mesh locally as a rehearsal for the internet-wide version. This is also what unblocks Builder's R6.

## REQUIREMENTS (falsifiable)
- **R1 — reef-from-spec.** A command that compiles an arbitrary markdown spec → a reef seeded from *its own* vocabulary (NOT the generic 144-tile library). *Check:* feeding `builder-npx-underwriter-package.md` yields a reef whose anchors come from that spec.
- **R2 — A↔B signing.** Node A (author room) ed25519-signs the reef/intent commitment; node B (executing room) signs the delivered-work payload. The two signatures + the drift receipt form one transaction. *Check:* two distinct host keys appear on the receipt.
- **R3 — The REAL walk (HARD RULE).** Run the **real recursive on-chip ballistic walk** (`pmu-onchip --ballistic`, connectivity lattice, row→column→row recursion) with spec=intent, delivered-work=reality. **NEVER** the analytic `mode=converged`/diffusion shortcut, a diagonal/identity grid, a JS BFS, or Monte-Carlo-as-the-walk. Speed is a correctness signal (~14ms, not ~21s). *Check:* `tests/pmu-simulator/competence-walk-is-real.test.mjs` stays green; the walk propagates past ply 1.
- **R4 — Drift receipt.** Output = a signed receipt stating whether the delivered work cohered with the spec (σ + verdict + triptych). *Check:* run Spec A as reef, Builder's package as payload → a signed σ.
- **R5 — Local mesh dogfood.** Run the whole A↔B loop on this repo's rooms locally, as the rehearsal for the internet-wide mesh. *Check:* a local two-node transaction completes end-to-end.

## ACCEPTANCE
Take this delegation set as the test: Spec A (reef/intent) signed by Operator-as-node-A, Builder's delivered npx package (reality) signed by Builder-as-node-B → the real ballistic walk produces a signed drift receipt with a σ that says whether Builder built what the spec asked. Respect the competence-walk HARD RULE; that's the whole differentiator.
This is the on-chip drift receipt for commit 04cb9892e, the same artifact emailed on commit — published so the claim is verifiable on the open web. Recompute it yourself: npx thetacog-mcp attest-demo.
