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-004 — Independent Judgment
|
|
|
|
## Claim
|
|
|
|
Separating actor execution from deterministic oracles reduces false-positive
|
|
adaptation to defective behaviour.
|
|
|
|
## Falsification condition
|
|
|
|
The framework classifies any seeded `DEFECT`-labelled mutation as
|
|
`MECHANICAL_ADAPTATION` — i.e. **False Adaptation Rate > 0** over the labelled set.
|
|
|
|
This is the project's existential safety metric. A non-zero result is a
|
|
stop-and-redesign signal, not a tuning exercise.
|
|
|
|
## Measurement
|
|
|
|
- False Adaptation Rate over `DEFECT`-labelled mutations. Target: exactly 0.
|
|
- Classification precision/recall over the full labelled set.
|
|
- Rate of `AMBIGUOUS` escalation — tracked as a cost, not as a failure. A system
|
|
that escalates everything is safe and useless.
|
|
|
|
## Relationship to the design
|
|
|
|
`docs/TestDriverClassificationDesign.md` argues that FAR = 0 follows
|
|
architecturally from D-02 (claims are run inputs with no adaptation write path)
|
|
rather than from classifier accuracy. This hypothesis therefore tests the
|
|
**architecture**, not a model.
|
|
|
|
The most plausible route to falsification is not a misclassification but
|
|
**surface-substitution**: an actor routing around a broken authorization control
|
|
via another surface and scoring as a successful recovery. D-05 exists to close
|
|
that route; E-003 exists to attack it deliberately.
|
|
|
|
## Status log
