A stable agentic realization becomes deterministic code. All four exit criteria met; 163 tests pass. - crystallization.py: trajectory capture, stability assessment requiring the same path across several runs, CrystallizedDriver, pytest codegen - crystallized/test_grant_access.py: generated, runs with no model, carries its lineage in the docstring - descendant preserves the ancestor's oracle set, agrees with it across five lab versions, and still catches a seeded defect - reversibility shown both ways via new M24 (grant endpoint renamed): the frozen descendant fails loudly rather than searching, and the agentic ancestor recovers from the same mutation F-0007 (open): the 54% cost reduction must not be quoted in support of the thesis. The T07 runtime is token-free, so the measured saving is one page fetch, one parse and a two-candidate scoring pass. The saving the concept actually claims - tokens, latency, retry variance - is unmeasured. Together with F-0005 this makes a bounded live-model experiment the highest-value next investment. Assertions in the generated test are imported rather than restated, so it is not fully standalone. Deliberate: paraphrased claims would be a second unverified statement of intent.

Research Control Plane
Deliberately small. This directory exists so that claims about test-driver can be falsified rather than accumulated. It is plain files — no CLI, no schema, no tooling — until there are enough readings to justify tooling.

├── experiments/ E-NNN — a planned or executed test of a hypothesis

Identifiers are stable and never reused. A rejected hypothesis keeps its number.
Hypothesis lifecycle
PROPOSED → EXPERIMENTING → SUPPORTED → PRACTICALLY_VALIDATED → ARCHITECTURAL
└──────→ REJECTED
A hypothesis may be reopened if later evidence contradicts it. Reopening is recorded in the file, not by creating a new identifier.
Rules
- Every hypothesis states what would falsify it, in terms of an observable outcome, before any experiment runs. A hypothesis with no falsification condition is an opinion.
- Concepts with no supporting evidence are marked as such, not quietly retained. The fitness map is expected to contain unsupported entries; hiding them defeats its purpose.
- Subtraction counts as progress. A rejected hypothesis or a removed abstraction is a result, not a setback.
