Summary

Hardens .claude/knowledge/lab-vs-canonical-surface.md into the
cross-cutting anti-hallucination guard for the cognitive-shader-driver
surface. Three commits on this branch:

  1. b183673lab-vs-canonical-surface.md initial doc: the
    LAB-ONLY vs canonical split (REST/gRPC server, Wire DTOs, per-op
    handlers are scaffolding; UnifiedStep via OrchestrationBridge
    is the canonical consumer surface). CLAUDE.md P0 rule added:
    read this before touching REST/gRPC/shader-lab/OrchestrationBridge.
  2. 62530f4 — AGI-as-struct-of-arrays invariant + 10
    architecture rules (I1–I10) folded in from 8 absorbed docs.
  3. 59adfb9 — dedup fix (accidentally landed two "Architecture
    Invariants" sections; kept the well-positioned one, removed the
    trailing duplicate).

The 10 Invariants (cite these; do not drift)

# Invariant Source doc
I1 BindSpace read-only Arc<[u64; 256*N]> + CollapseGate airgap (XOR/Bundle merge modes) docs/INTEGRATION_PLAN_CS.md
I2 Canonical import is ndarray::simd::* — never ndarray::hpc::* docs/INTEGRATION_PLAN_CS.md
I3 Layer temporal budgets: L0 sub-ns → L1 ns → L2 ns → L3 µs → L4 ms docs/COGNITIVE_SHADER_HYDRATION.md
I4 Temperature hierarchy: Hot (BindSpace sweep) → Warm (CAM-PQ) → Cold (DataFusion) → Frozen (metadata); cold narrows first docs/SEMIRING_ALGEBRA_SURFACE.md
I5 Thinking IS an AdjacencyStore — 36 styles at τ-prefix 0x0D; one engine, two graphs docs/THINKING_PIPELINE.md
I6 Weights are seeds — GGUF hydrates into palette + Fingerprint<256> + FisherZTable + holographic residual + CausalEdge64 docs/COGNITIVE_SHADER_HYDRATION.md
I7 Per-cycle cascade ~2.3ms / 1M rows with monotone narrowing docs/COGNITIVE_SHADER_HYDRATION.md
I8 4096 surface = 16 prefix × 256 slots, Addr(u16) docs/METADATA_SCHEMA_INVENTORY.md
I9 Three DTO families: StreamDto / ResonanceDto / BusDto (doctrinal) docs/integrated-architecture-map.md
I10 HEEL / HIP / BRANCH / TWIG / LEAF progressive precision hierarchy docs/integrated-architecture-map.md

Plus the session-level anchor: AGI = (topic, angle, thinking,
planner) = struct-of-arrays consuming cognitive-shader-driver
identity.
The super-DTO family IS the unified API; the 4-column
BindSpace (fingerprints / qualia / meta / edges) is the distilled
Era-8 CognitiveRecord.

PR #221 Audit (architecturally clean — included context)

Verified that PR #221's codec-research REST/gRPC + planner bridge
did NOT violate these invariants:

  • codec_research.rs — no semiring references. Research functions
    (list_tensors, calibrate_tensor, row_count_probe) operate on
    tensor metadata only.
  • codec_bridge.rs:101SemiringChoice::HammingMin appears only
    as step metadata on the UnifiedStep, not as an op.
  • PaletteSemiring — stays pub(crate) inside ShaderDriver
    (L2 nanosecond budget); never re-exported from lib.rs.
  • OrchestrationBridge for PlannerAwareness — correctly placed in
    the canonical planner crate; always compiled.

Forward risk flagged: ShaderDriver.semiring is pub(crate)
today. A future session tempted to make it pub would violate I4
(temperature hierarchy keeps the semiring on the hot path only).

Docs Absorbed Into Invariants

  • docs/COGNITIVE_SHADER_HYDRATION.md
  • docs/INTEGRATION_PLAN_CS.md
  • docs/METADATA_SCHEMA_INVENTORY.md
  • docs/SEMIRING_ALGEBRA_SURFACE.md
  • docs/ZECKF64_VSA_SYNERGY_MAP.md
  • docs/integrated-architecture-map.md
  • docs/THINKING_PIPELINE.md
  • docs/endgame-holographic-agi.md (partial) + docs/p1-audit-status.md

Plus .claude/board/LATEST_STATE.md + .claude/phases/integration_phases.md
for current-state grounding.

Test Plan

  • Docs-only PR — no code changes, no build impact
  • lab-vs-canonical-surface.md is referenced by CLAUDE.md P0 rule
    (pre-existing) so future sessions will actually load it
  • I1–I10 section is cite-ready: each row lists the source doc so
    a future session can drill down without re-reading everything
  • No duplicate sections (verified after 59adfb9 dedup fix)

cognitive-shader-driver IS the unified API. Its re-exported super DTO
family (ShaderDispatch/ShaderHit/MetaWord/BindSpace/ShaderDriver plus
UnifiedStep/OrchestrationBridge) is the ONLY consumer-facing surface.
REST/gRPC servers, per-op Wire DTOs, codec_research, codec_bridge,
planner_bridge are LAB-ONLY scaffolding for Claude Code backend
testing — never shipped to consumers.

- Cargo.toml: `lab` umbrella feature (serve+grpc+with-planner+
  with-engine) and shader-lab binary. Canonical library surface
  available with zero features; REST+gRPC coexist behind siblings.
- lib.rs: explicit "Canonical / LAB-ONLY" section header + STOP
  block pointing future sessions at the knowledge doc before they
  add REST endpoints.
- wire / serve / grpc / codec_research / codec_bridge / planner_bridge:
  `//! **LAB-ONLY.**` banners naming the hallucination failure mode
  and the canonical alternative.

Anti-hallucination docs:
- .claude/knowledge/lab-vs-canonical-surface.md — Decision Procedure,
  Kahneman-Tversky / Dunning-Kruger traps named explicitly,
  5-layer stack mapping (L0 ndarray → L4 Planner), list of every
  canonical re-export.
- .claude/agents/BOOT.md — 3 new activation triggers
  (REST/gRPC/Wire DTO; OrchestrationBridge/UnifiedStep; codec research).
- CLAUDE.md — P0 rule for the new knowledge doc.

Grounded against THINKING_RECONCILIATION.md, INTEGRATION_PLAN_CS.md,
BINDSPACE_MIGRATION_GAP.md, COGNITIVE_SHADER_HYDRATION.md,
COGNITIVE_MERGE_MAP.md, SESSION_HANDOFF_PRIORITIES.md,
CODEC_INVARIANTS_AND_EXPERIMENTS.md. Research is one consumer of the
unified DTO via StepDomain::Ndarray — not the reason the DTO exists.

Build: both `cargo check` (canonical, no features) and
`cargo check --features lab` compile clean. `cargo test --lib
--features lab` → 46 passing. Zero runtime cost on canonical path.

Extends lab-vs-canonical-surface.md with:

- AGI IS the struct-of-arrays section (Era 8 CognitiveRecord →
  4-axis BindSpace columns: topic/angle/thinking/planner)
- Per-cycle contract: dispatch/branch/merge/dream lifecycle
- Migration status note (4-column SoA distills 11-field Era 8)
- 10 non-negotiable architecture invariants citing docs/:
  1. BindSpace read-only + CollapseGate airgap protocol
  2. ndarray::simd::* canonical import rule
  3. Layer temporal scopes (L0 sub-ns → L4 ms)
  4. Temperature hierarchy (Hot/Warm/Cold/Frozen)
  5. Thinking = AdjacencyStore (one engine, two graphs)
  6. Weights are seeds (GGUF → hydrate → BindSpace, no matmul)
  7. Per-cycle cascade budget (~2.3ms/1M, monotone narrowing)
  8. 4096 address surface (16 prefix × 256 slots)
  9. Three DTO families (Stream/Resonance/Bus) — doctrinal
  10. HEEL/HIP/BRANCH/TWIG/LEAF progressive precision hierarchy

Grounded in: INTEGRATION_PLAN_CS.md, COGNITIVE_SHADER_HYDRATION.md,
SEMIRING_ALGEBRA_SURFACE.md, METADATA_SCHEMA_INVENTORY.md,
THINKING_PIPELINE.md, integrated-architecture-map.md,
ZECKF64_VSA_SYNERGY_MAP.md, HISTORICAL_CONTEXT.md.

Remove duplicate "Architecture Invariants (from docs/)" that was
positioned after the doc's closing sentinel. The canonical version
(I1-I10) sits inside the doc body at its correct structural position.

P2 Badge Point shader-lab at a binary that starts both transports

shader-lab is introduced as the umbrella lab target, but it is wired to src/bin/serve.rs, whose main only launches the Axum HTTP server; it never starts the tonic gRPC server path. In practice, running cargo run --features lab --bin shader-lab enables gRPC dependencies but exposes only REST, so any workflow expecting gRPC from the new single lab binary will fail at runtime.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

The LAB-ONLY surface isn't just quarantine scaffolding — it's the
codec-research iteration testbed. Its reason for existing is the cost
of the alternative: every codec candidate re-measured through a
cargo build cycle burns minutes per iteration.

With the lab REST/gRPC + wire DTOs, a single binary serves dozens of
candidates against the same safetensors in seconds per call. PR #220
falsified PR #219's ICC-0.9998 claim via exactly this path: the
calibration CLI + /v1/shader/calibrate endpoint surfaced mean ICC
0.195 / 0/234 pass rate on full Qwen3-TTS-0.6B tensors before any
production consumer linked the codec.

Two purposes now named explicitly in the doc:

1. Iteration velocity (positive) — lab surface = curl-friendly
   research loop, no rebuild per candidate.
2. Canonical firewall (guard) — consumers still walk UnifiedStep via
   OrchestrationBridge; they never see Wire* per-op DTOs.

Changes:
- New subsection "Why the Lab Surface Exists (positive purpose — not
  just quarantine)" with the #219#220 worked-example table.
- Decision Procedure item 3 reframed: research ops and curl-friendly
  debug shortcuts are a legitimate use of the lab surface, with a
  graduation rule (full-size validation → new StepDomain variant; lab
  endpoint stays for continued iteration, production moves to bridge).

Retroactive hygiene for the recent PR arc + prospective enforcement
so the gap never recurs. User directive: "should have happened to
begin with."

LATEST_STATE.md:
  - Header: "Last updated 2026-04-20 post PR #224 (PR #225 open)"
  - Recently Shipped table: prepended rows for #225 (open), #224,
    and #223 with full shipped-content summaries
  - Contract Inventory: expanded cam:: entry with all new codec-
    sweep types (LaneWidth / Distance / Rotation / ResidualSpec /
    CodecParams / CodecParamsBuilder / CodecParamsError) including
    the precision-ladder-fires-before-JIT invariant
  - Active Branches: recorded claude/teleport-session-setup-wMZfb
    and its three merged PRs
  - Active Integration Plans: added codec-sweep-via-lab-infra-v1
    alongside elegant-herding-rocket-v1
  - Immediate Next Work: codec-sweep Phase 0 remainder (D0.1/0.2/0.3/
    0.5) + the elegant-herding Phase 2 block

PR_ARC_INVENTORY.md (APPEND-ONLY — PREPEND only):
  - #225 entry: plan + CodecParams/Builder/precision validation +
    rules A-F locked + decisions for future PRs
  - #224 entry: three-part lab stack + thinking harvest + I11
    measurability locked
  - #223 entry: LAB-ONLY firewall + AGI-as-SoA + I1-I10 invariants
    locked (the cross-cutting architectural ruleset this workspace
    now enforces)

STATUS_BOARD.md:
  - New section: codec-sweep-via-lab-infra-v1 with 18 D-ids across
    5 phases (D0.6/D0.7 marked Shipped-in-#225; remainder Queued)

EPIPHANIES.md (APPEND-ONLY — PREPEND only, 6 new dated entries):
  - Board hygiene is the driving seat, not cleanup (this session's
    self-reflection turned into a rule)
  - Codec cert is token agreement, not synthetic ICC (#219#220
    arc; #225 CalibrationEqualsMeasurement typed rejection)
  - Lab REST surface is three-part (API + Planner + JIT), not just
    scaffolding
  - Thinking harvest via REST/Cypher = the AGI magic bullet
  - SoA never scalarises without ndarray (iron rule Rule C)
  - AGI is the glove, not the oracle — four-axis SoA is what you
    wear

CLAUDE.md — new top-level § "The Stance — Driving Seat +
AGI-as-Glove (P0, read first)":

  - Explicit driving-seat posture: the session STEERS the stack,
    doesn't observe it
  - AGI-as-glove doctrine concrete: topic → FingerprintColumns,
    angle → QualiaColumn, thinking → MetaColumn, planner →
    EdgeColumn. New capability lands as a new column, not a layer.
  - MANDATORY Board-Hygiene Rule as a table: every PR that adds a
    type / plan / D-id / epiphany / tech-debt / issue MUST update
    the corresponding board file IN THE SAME COMMIT. Retroactive
    hygiene (merge PR → later cleanup) is now an anti-pattern the
    rule forbids.
  - "Consult, don't guess" — agent/knowledge-first discipline:
    specialist-agent card → knowledge doc → board inventory →
    only then grep. Subagent spawn with curated docs beats main-
    thread grep.

147/147 contract suite still passing. Doc-only PR otherwise
(Cargo.toml / src/* unchanged; the orphan serde_yaml/base64 deps
from the timed-out bus-compiler subagent were reverted — they'll
land with D0.1/D0.3 when the Wire code lands).
