Three Explore agents fanned out in parallel for a docs/ + diagrams/
+ code-comment audit against the shipped state of the three
preflight tickets. This commit lands all the alignment fixes.
Core docs updates:
CLAUDE.md
- dag.py module description: stage counts now read
"7/8 quote · 9/10 CTI · 3 reject" reflecting #000009 preflight
stage + reject-broad early-return shape.
docs/cti-architecture.md §2.2 + §2.3
- §2.3 Merkle-AGI-DAG section rewritten: documents all five DAG
shapes (legacy 7/9, post-#000009 8/10, reject-broad 3),
describes the preflight stage's 5 nested CTI clauses
(classifier / answer_contract / prompt_contract /
evidence_contract / policy_refs), pins
PREFLIGHT_NODE_VERSION = "preflight-node-v1", states the
audit-replay payoff.
- §2.2 CTI section: adds the four new modules
(quantifier, model_profiles, quantifier_reminder,
metacognition) as code anchors. Notes that pre-answer
preflight contract extends CTI upstream of retrieval.
docs/seven-point-program.md
- D3 status ½ → ¾ — pre-answer preflight contract landed via
#000008 + #000010. Code anchors + pinning tests updated.
- D4 status ½ → ¾ — preflight stage adds upstream control
commitment to the run-DAG. Code anchors include
build_reject_run_dag + preflight_node_hash.
- Status snapshot table: tickets column now references
#000008/#000009/#000010 against D1/D3/D4 directives.
- "Post-landing addendum (2026-05-03 / 2026-05-04)" subsection
summarises all three tickets + their commit shas + final
test count (993 passing, up from 734).
docs/modules.md
- Q&A pipeline table: added 4 new modules (quantifier.py,
model_profiles.py, quantifier_reminder.py, metacognition.py).
dag.py row updated to "7/8 quote · 9/10 CTI · 3 reject".
- dag.py subsection rewritten: documents all 5 DAG shapes,
describes the preflight payload's 5 clauses + question_state.
- 4 new module subsections (quantifier / model_profiles /
quantifier_reminder / metacognition) explaining each
module's purpose, signature, and how it feeds the run-DAG
preflight clause.
Diagram updates:
docs/diagrams/query-pipeline.dot + .svg
- New "PREFLIGHT (#000008 + #000010)" node inserted between
cache_check and concepts_lookup.
- New "REJECT-BROAD" node showing the 3-stage minimal DAG
escape path.
- render node label extended with the audit-line tail token
catalog.
docs/diagrams/aborist-modules.dot + .svg
- 4 new qa_* nodes in the retrieval & verifier cluster.
- 8 new edges: qa_query/qa_runner each call into all 4
preflight modules; qa_dag has dotted edges to qa_quantifier
+ qa_metacognition (preflight clause sources).
- qa_dag label updated to mention preflight_node_hash + 5 clauses.
docs/diagrams/verifier-ladder.dot + .svg
- Soft-demote violations list extended: BROAD_QUANTIFIER_RUNAWAY
/ CAP_APPLIED / SCOPE_UNBOUND, FORMAT_COLLAPSED, BARE_NAME_CLAIM.
- New "AUDIT-LINE TAILS" annotation node listing all 11 tail
tokens (#000008 broad-* + #000010 metacog + classic verifier).
- Dashed edges from each rung to tails note showing tails
compose onto labels.
Code-side stale-comment fixes (caught by 3rd Explore agent):
aborist/qa/keys.py:218
- "The four fields" → "The seven fields"; mention #000010 adds
six more for metacognition.
aborist/qa/query.py:2644
- 7-stage / 9-stage comment expanded to enumerate all four
base+preflight shapes plus the 3-stage reject path.
aborist/qa/runner.py:835
- same expansion as query.py for runner.ask() callsite.
mesh-*.dot, ingest-pipeline.dot, qa-modes-bench.md, bench-maxing.md,
bench-emergent-design.md, verifier-semantic-gap-design.md,
self-reference-design.md, concept-relations-design.md confirmed
orthogonal — no edits needed.
993 tests still passing (no behavior change). 7 files modified
across docs/ + 3 dot diagrams + 3 SVGs + 4 code-comment fixes.
