#000037 §22: dry-run swap to sweep_weights() + §15.4 added
The dry-run was still using safe_weights(); Phase 1.c shipped
sweep_weights() (γ_5f=1.5, λ_capital_cost=0.25,
ν_witness_divergence=0.5) precisely for sleep-sweep economics. Swap
both call sites in prometheus_sigma_sweep_dryrun.py and label the
report Weight profile: sweep (§15.4).

§15.4 adds the sweep profile alongside §15.1 safe / §15.2
conservative / §15.3 exploratory so the named-profile registry has
a single doc source of truth and the dry-run report's §15.4
reference resolves.

§22 dry-run-runs table (3 rows: initial uniform-τ-1d under safe;
per-mode τ under safe; per-mode τ under sweep) replaces the prior
inline narrative count. Includes a Phase-3-design observation: the
sweep profile flattens the softmax (DEFERRED 271 → 369; REJECT
205 → 110; ACCEPT 1 → 0; MARGINAL 2 → 3) because reducing
λ_capital_cost + ν_witness_divergence shrinks the gap between
high-Δ5F and low-Δ5F branches, so fewer branches reach Kelly's
p_i > 0.5 floor. Falsification-fixture proposal count stayed flat
(447 → 449) — the §13 step 11 emission path is upstream of decision
labeling, so sweep mode preserves information-gathering value while
concentrating action-taking on the high-confidence tail. Phase 3
ticket #000045 §2 deliberately leaves softmax temperature un-pinned
because of this trade-off.

"""Prometheus-Σ Phase 3 sleep-sweep dry-run simulator (ticket #000037).
Reads existing shards under ``~/.arborist/shards/``, classifies sweep
candidates per §3 Target A (``providence_cache``) and §3 Target B
(``documents``), synthesizes a :class:`ControllerBranch` per candidate
from already-committed data, and runs the Phase 1 controller. No
mutations, no LLM calls, no Hermes traffic — pure read + simulate +
report.
Why this script exists: Phase 3 (the actual sleep-sweep scheduler) is
operationally complex. The dry-run answers four questions before any
scheduler ships:
1. **How many candidates are there?** Targets A + B per shard.
2. **What does the controller decide?** Decision distribution
(ACCEPT / MARGINAL / DEFERRED / REJECT / QUARANTINE / ESCALATE).
3. **What's the witness-cost budget look like?** Sum of capital
costs across non-DEFERRED decisions.
4. **What fixes does the controller surface?** Aggregate veto
reasons + proposal counts.
Heuristic synthesis (Target A — providence_cache row → branch):
- ``audit_mode`` → Δ5F:
STRICT=+0.05 (small re-witness upside),
CANONICAL_PROJECTION=+0.10,
HYBRID=+0.00,
UNGROUNDED=-0.10 (re-witness likely to confirm weakness).
- ``unverified_quotes`` / ``n_quotes`` → ``witness_divergence``.
- ``falsification_state='quarantined'`` → hard veto ``cache_drift``.
- ``hit_count`` → soft signal on cost-of-not-re-checking
(higher hits = re-witness more valuable). Folded into
``warrant_promotion_gain``.
Heuristic synthesis (Target B — document sample → branch):
- Canonical-shape regex prefilter on a chunk excerpt:
math operator, propositional logic token, time-series JSON.
If matched → ``warrant_promotion_gain += 0.05`` (canonical-probe
is the high-value sweep work).
- Otherwise low warrant-promotion potential.
These heuristics are deliberately simple — the goal is to validate
the controller machinery against real-corpus shape, not to compute
production-grade fitness deltas. Real ground truth requires running
the witness fan-out (#000028), which is Phase 3's actual work — not
a dry-run's scope.
