Three small streams in one commit:
#000028 follow-up — witness divergence → 5F fixtures
=====================================================
Witness fan-out now writes a `providence_canonical_witness` audit
event when it fires (next to the capital-ledger record landed in
708aa45). Body carries pi_star_ref, question_text, agreement_label,
canonical_answer_text, llm_raw_text, llm_canonical_bytes,
cache_status. Best-effort write — chain failure never fails the
query.
New extractor `bench/scripts/witness_to_5f.py` reads those events
from a qa.db and writes them out as 5F-Falsification fixtures
matching the existing `falsification-live-v1` schema. Filtering
includes only divergence labels (LLM-DIVERGED / KERNEL-LLM-DIVERGED
/ CACHE-DRIFT); skips KERNEL-LLM-AGREE / STRICT-WITNESSED (no
calibration signal) and KERNEL-ONLY (LLM unparseable, not a
supervised-correction sample).
Idempotent: sorted by audit-event seq, so re-running against the
same qa.db produces byte-equal fixture files. The existing
fixture-digest discipline stays valid.
Makefile: `make bench-witness-divergence` (override default
qa.db / output path via WITNESS_QA_DB / WITNESS_OUT env-vars).
Closes the divergence → calibration data loop the witness ticket
imagined: every LLM hallucination on a canonical-shape question
becomes a supervised-correction fixture downstream prompt
improvements can grade against.
#000030 Phase 7 demo — function-sampled@v1 end-to-end
======================================================
`bench/scripts/demo_plot.py` — closes the loop on opencompletion's
activity24-math-plot.yaml. SymPy expression → quantized
integer-vector signature (canonical bytes) → optional matplotlib
PNG. Canonical bytes are the proof; PNG is just a downstream view
of the same evidence.
$ make demo-plot Q='sin(x)' PNG=/tmp/sin.png
Output JSON contains canonical_bytes_sha256 + canonical_bytes_preview
+ canonical_bytes_total_chars + grid metadata + the optional png_path.
matplotlib is gated — when absent, --png prints a warning to stderr
and skips the render; the canonical bytes still print. Tests skip
the PNG-presence assertion via `pytest.importorskip("matplotlib")`.
Public docs polish (#7)
========================
- docs/_source/bench.rst: updated fixture-count narrative (~660 →
662 default tasks + ~110 math π* fixtures); `make` quick-reference
now lists all per-π* 5S targets (tabular, calculus-limit/series,
linear-algebra, function-sampled) plus bench-real-shard,
bench-fork-baseline/score, bench-witness-divergence.
- docs/_source/v8-fork-score.rst: CLI section gained --out flag
documentation + a Make-harness sub-section covering
bench-fork-baseline / bench-fork-score / FORK_PARENT/CHILD/REPORT
env-vars.
Tests
=====
- tests/test_witness_to_5f.py — 8 new tests covering the audit-event
write (3) + extractor logic (5).
- tests/test_demo_plot.py — 6 new tests covering canonical-bytes
determinism + equivalence-class collapse + matplotlib gating.
Full suite: 1624 passed, 37 skipped (was 1568; +56).
Two fan-out streams. Both bear directly on the ticket's "search
latency on real shards" headline finding.
## Lazy concept_relations loading
Phase 1 (migration memoization) cut SQLite executes 65% but warm-
cache wall barely moved. cProfile pinned the next hotspot:
synonym_expand 2.8 s × 2 calls + _load_token_idf 0.3 s. The eager
loader dumped all ~290 K concept_relations rows on first call —
the price of being able to answer ANY future question without
re-querying. Wrong tradeoff for single-query CLI use.
Refactored arborist/concepts/query.py:
- New _load_neighbors_for(shards_dir, tokens) — targeted
WHERE token IN (...) OR target IN (...) query. Returns just the
direct synonym neighborhood for the given tokens (~300 rows for
a typical 5-token question, vs 290 K for the full table).
- New _load_rivalry_rows(shards_dir) — process-wide cache of the
~2-row rivalry-relation set; near-zero cost.
- New _load_idf_for(shards_dir, tokens) — IDF only fetched when
expansion exceeds max_total (the cap). Most queries never reach
the truncation branch and skip IDF entirely.
- Per-token process-wide neighbor cache so multi-query bench scripts
don't re-query tokens already seen.
- synonym_expand and rivalry_excluded refactored to use the lazy
loaders. Eager _load_indices / _get_indices kept for any
back-compat caller; not used by hot paths.
- invalidate_cache() clears all three caches.
All 14 concept tests pass unchanged — the contract is preserved.
Re-profile of `who wrote virt-back?` against ~38 GB of real shards
(warm cache):
metric pre-fix post-Phase-1 post-lazy-concepts
wall_ms 14,500 13,400 9,300 (-36%)
search_ms 9,900 10,600 5,000 (-49%)
SQLite executes 10,623 3,687 3,708 ~same
synonym_expand 2,966 2,840 ~0 (lazy hit)
Search target was <5 s; we hit 5.0 s on the warm path. Cold cache
should drop further (the 290 K-row dump was disk-bound).
## Real-shard baseline artifact (Phase 2)
bench/scripts/real_shard_baseline.py — runs an 8-question fixture
through the full query() pipeline and emits:
- bench/results/real-shard-baseline.json (durable; commit_sha,
shards_fingerprint, per-query rows, summary)
- bench/results/real-shard-baseline.md (human-readable summary)
Question set in bench/fixtures/real-shard-baseline-v1.jsonl:
virt-back, France, Mac OS X, Linux, Microsoft, AMD/Intel
(rivalry path), and two canonical-projection cases (math + logic
preflight short-circuit).
First baseline run (commit e78814c plus this fan-out, BURN=1):
audit_mode n notes
STRICT 4 (virt-back, France, Mac OS X, Linux)
HYBRID 2 (Microsoft founder, AMD/Intel)
CANONICAL 2 (0.1+0.2, A IMPL B; <1 ms each)
wall median 4.1 s (range 0.6 ms – 7.2 s)
primary used 4 / 8
`who wrote virt-back?` lands at 6.3 s wall, audit STRICT, primary
source #1, cited evidence still includes a copyright footer
(reviewer's warrant-quality finding — deferred to follow-up ticket
since the latency fix was the gating concern).
Hard constraint preserved: baselines NEVER gate CI. The artifact
is for confirming a fix moved the needle, seeding ForkScore
comparisons, and noting findings worth tickets.
`make bench-real-shard` wires it. Honors ARBORIST_SHARDS_DIR.
## Test status
Full suite: 1306 passed, 36 skipped (no regressions from the
concept refactor; 14 concept tests cover the lazy/eager
equivalence).
