H-001..H-005 with explicit falsification conditions, E-001..E-003, the Concept-Implementation Fitness Map, findings log and ID convention. Plain files, no tooling. - fitness map corrects Improvement Loop section 13 levels downward: nothing exceeds C1 without implementation - H-005 (Energy) dormant by decision - events captured, no scoring written - H-001 gets a genuine control arm so the semantic-action thesis is not trivially true - E-003 added: deliberately attacks the safety boundary rather than only sampling benign cases Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Assistant: claude-code Assistant-Model: opus Assistant-Process: 1629012@bnt-lap001 Assistant-Session: 78d4fb13-8a1e-474b-87a3-9b9261c49a39

# H-002 — Mechanical Adaptation
|
|
|
|
## Claim
|
|
|
|
An agentic driver can recover from a mechanical implementation change without
|
|
modifying the semantics of the protected use case.
|
|
|
|
## Falsification condition
|
|
|
|
Either:
|
|
- the driver fails to recover from a majority of labelled `MECHANICAL` mutations
|
|
(recovery is not achievable in practice); **or**
|
|
- recovery is achieved only in runs where claims or invariants were altered
|
|
(recovery is achievable but not semantics-preserving).
|
|
|
|
The second branch matters more than the first. A high recovery rate purchased by
|
|
weakening assertions falsifies this hypothesis just as decisively as no recovery
|
|
at all.
|
|
|
|
## Measurement
|
|
|
|
- Mechanical Recovery Rate over `MECHANICAL`-labelled mutations.
|
|
- Claim/invariant diff per run — expected to be empty by construction
|
|
(`docs/TestDriverClassificationDesign.md` D-02). Any non-empty diff is both a
|
|
falsification signal **and** a framework defect, since no write path should exist.
|
|
|
|
## Status log
|
|
|
|
- 2026-08-22 `PROPOSED`. Design decision D-02 makes the second falsification
|
|
branch structurally unreachable; the measurement is retained anyway, as an
|
|
assertion that the architecture is what we believe it is.
