Make ongoing language learning observable

User-approved baseline, learning ledger and generated evolution report. Finite investigations support an ongoing language; no composite maturity score or automatic promotion. M1/M2 and independent human validation remain open in WP-0002/WP-0003.

Establish the versioned evidence baseline

priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "a23a0de7-9f53-5135-b412-3e556725ad9b"

Seventeen research identities, current profiles and immutable baseline pin candidate content and distinguish documentary/static/runtime evidence, implementation families, review provenance and limits. Full-contract independence and historical effort remain unknown. See research/evolution/README.md and snapshots/baseline-2026-09-26.json.

Record learning and generate transparent reporting

Selected retrospective ledger, prospective cycle template, generated evidence/case/ usefulness report, validation and tests. Preserve the frozen pilot and all historical experiment receipts. Intent/protocol/program now describe continuous learning.

Measure the first comparable prospective cycles

Before WP-0003 T01's next navigation/history/cache investigation, register one bounded cycle using templates/LearningCycle.md. Record effort, outcomes and counterevidence; update profiles/report and snapshot at the review boundary. Continue with comparable questions only where they are useful, not to meet a count target. After at least three comparable cycles review returns within that stream/protocol; no trend claim before then and no automatic plateau declaration. Preserve independent confirmation value.

Reconcile substantive-review dates from original artifacts; baseline assessment dates must not fabricate freshness. Future usefulness work retains stable development anchors and preregisters fresh tasks under WP-0004; it does not alter the consumed pilot.

First prospective cycle completed — 2026-09-27

LEARN-0011 preregistered at f3697c1; htmx 2.0.11 navigation/history/cache experiment meets 20/20 registered checks (18 browser rows and repeated explicit HTTP checks). Both browsers reproduce missing-Vary fragment-as-document failure. Outcome is corroboration, not a new discovery. Active/execution effort recorded in research/evolution/cycles/2026-09-27-navigation-effort.json; one cycle cannot show a trend. Candidate profiles/report updated; hypothesis status and provisional VC-03 retained.

WP-0003 T01 retains keyboard/focus/error-feedback and delayed/interrupted enhancement questions; T02 retains independent walkthrough review and offline-reading branch. WP-0006 T03 remains progress for comparable-window review and remaining substantive review-date reconciliation. Choose a new comparison group for materially different questions. M1/M2 and independent-human validation remain open. See research/reviews/NavigationHistoryExperiment.md.
