Closes the "everything is at rate 1.0 so fork_score's bench-Δ terms are inert" gap the #000025 §10.14 calibration surfaced — at least on the 5F/falsification axis. bench/fixtures/5f/falsification-hard-v1.jsonl — 12 near-misses, each a FALSE/unsupported claim whose correct verdict is UNGROUNDED (recorded in expected_reason). 8 of 12 are over-grounded by arborist.qa.verify.verify_quotes at HEAD — its paraphrase token-coverage strategy returns STRICT_PARAPHRASE, its entity-proximity strategy returns HYBRID_ENTITY, both matching on incidental overlap (shared entities/numbers, the same key terms stated in the opposite direction) — so those tasks fail by design; the other 4 the verifier handles correctly. Rate at HEAD = 4/12 = 0.333, stable (verify_quotes is pure-lexical / deterministic). Built around the pre-documented gap 5f-fal-live-003. make bench-5f-falsification-hard runs the pack; make bench-fork-baseline-hard pins it to bench/results/baseline-falsification-hard.json. Both targets `|| true` past the runner's nonzero-on-failures exit (8 fixtures fail by design; the JSON is still written). tests/test_bench_batteries.py — test_5f_falsification_hard_pack_below_ceiling (pins rate 4/12, source=live, every fixture asserts UNGROUNDED, the 8 fails are over-grounds not abstentions) + test_fork_score_positive_gamma_5f_on_hard_falsification_improvement (the worked example: fork_score(parent={5f/falsification: 1/3}, child={5f/falsification: 1.0}) → gamma*Delta5f ≈ +0.133 > 0, verdict ACCEPT, no regression flags — the bench Δ-rate carrying signal it can't carry while every canonical pack is at ceiling). NOT in `make bench-5f` / `make bench-5s5t5f` / `make bench-fork-baseline` / `runner --all` — the hard pack is a separate, deliberately-failing artifact pinned on its own. #000046 flipped to "in progress · Phase 1 landed"; closure pending an actual verify_quotes tightening that lifts the rate (a separate, larger task). ticket-000012 §8 §4 + TICKETS.md row updated.

Arborist tickets — index
Arborist uses a flat ticket-NNNNNN-<slug>.md convention for actionable
proposals: defects with a known root cause, design proposals awaiting
go/no-go, or scoped enhancements queued for future implementation.
Convention
- Filename:
docs/tickets/ticket-NNNNNN-<slug>.md. The ID is a six-digit zero-padded integer; the slug is hyphen-lowercase and short enough to stay readable on a 100-column terminal. - Numbering: monotonic, never reused. Pick the next free integer
greater than every existing ticket. The current next ID is on the
Next IDline below; bump it when you open a ticket and commit the bump in the same commit as the new ticket file. - Header: every ticket starts with
# Ticket #NNNNNN — <short title> **Status:** open · awaiting go/no-go (or "in progress", "closed") **Opened:** YYYY-MM-DD **Scope:** <one-liner — what this ticket is for> **Audience:** <who reads this> **Hard constraint:** <invariants this ticket commits to NOT break> - Body: problem statement, design choices with trade-offs,
recommendation, implementation sketch, scope boundaries, status.
See
ticket-000001-retrieval-keywords-audit-gap.mdfor a worked template. - Closure: when a ticket lands, flip Status to
closed · landed in commit <sha>and leave the file in place. Do not delete tickets; they are the design log.
Distinction from other docs
docs/ also contains architecture references and bench journey notes
that are NOT tickets — they describe state of the world rather than
proposing change. Examples that stay un-numbered:
seven-point-program.md(north-star architectural directive distilled 2026-05-01; every new ticket / feature / prompt edit walks past this; bench harness reports per-mode directive coverage)cti-architecture.md(architecture reference for the Clause Tree Intelligence claim-lattice-pointer mode)mesh.md(mesh wire format + group-key state machine)benchmarks.md(bench harness orientation — fixtures, signal floor, make targets, bench-row schema, addenda index; read first when running a bench)bench-maxing.md(bench discipline — 5pp signal floor, n=3 default, avoid negation in prompts, honest verdicts over optimistic ones)qa-modes-bench.md(rolling bench-journal addenda with cross-references to per-ticket bench data)soft-hash-channel-analysis.md(analysis doc closing #000018 open questions §9.1 / §9.2 / §9.3; companion tosoft-hash-channel-t3-bound.md)soft-hash-channel-t3-bound.md(#000036 formal derivation of the per-window covert-channel budget; companion to the analysis doc, both feed the t3_bound_calculator)tool-action-dag-design.md(research path for an action- provenance layer downstream offinal_label. Captured pre-ticket per the 2026-05-07 arborist-vs-donto comparison; promotes to a ticket when an actual agent use case surfaces)warrant-substrate-cookbook.md(architecture reference for the 18 open-licensed textbook substrates backing every claim-pack record, written 2026-05-10 after the 18/92 → 92/92 push under#000031. Per-pillar substrate map, ingest patterns, alias discipline, cascade tuning, honest tier breakdown.)calculator-test-patterns.md(architecture reference for testing calculator / probe-style code. Twelve patterns split into two tiers: the original 9-item core (KAT regression, hand-computed formula assertions, monotonicity, closure / sum-of-parts invariants, parametrized invalid-input cones, CLI subprocess, doc parity, module-export shape) plus three domain-specific contract pins (projective-contract for one-way canonicalizers, dispatch-order pin for Python type-hierarchy gotchas, tie-breaking-rule pin for banker's rounding). Codified 2026-05-10 from the original three-module pattern bench acrosst3_bound_calculator/phi_alignment_probe/anchor_prg; extended same day with the four π* kernel exemplars (pi_star_arithmetic/_logic/_code/_time_series). Explicit "doesn't apply to verifier-style code" caveat.)
If a doc proposes change AND awaits a decision AND has scoped implementation cost, it's a ticket. Otherwise it's reference.
