CHANGELOG

Generated deterministically from merged governance metadata.

[9.24.1] — 2026-03-24 — Phase 91 Audit Hardening · Senior Audit Pass

Branch: fix/phase91-audit-5patch Audit basis: Senior Audit Thesis v9.24.0 (2026-03-24)

Fixed — P1

  • FINDING-91-001 / LINEAGE-CACHE-01 (runtime/evolution/lineage_v2.py): verify_integrity(max_lines=N) early-return path now advances _verified_tail_hash to the last verified prefix entry before returning. Previously the pointer was left None, causing every subsequent _last_hash() call to trigger a full O(n) re-scan — an O(n²) total cost at ledger scale. Postcondition contract annotated inline.
  • FINDING-91-002 / CI-DUPE-01 (.github/workflows/ci.yml): Renamed the first (dead) semantic-diff-determinism job definition to semantic-diff-determinism-baseline. Added to ci-gating-summary needs: chain and summary table. Both fixture sets now run and gate independently.
  • FINDING-91-003 / PYPROJECT-VER-01 (pyproject.toml): version aligned from 9.15.0 to 9.24.0 (9 minor-version drift). pip, PyPI, and GitHub Packages now report correct package metadata.

Fixed — P2

  • FINDING-91-004 / PHONE-LIBCST-01 (requirements.phone.txt): Added libcst>=1.1.0,<2.0. The omission silently disabled the full constitutional AST validation subsystem on mobile (Pydroid3/Termux path). libcst is pure-Python and installs on armv8l without issue.
  • FINDING-91-005 / AUDIT-TEL-01 (runtime/audit_auth.py): load_audit_tokens() now emits structured log events on all three failure modes (absent env var: DEBUG; malformed JSON: WARNING; wrong type: WARNING). Scope checks in require_audit_read_scope and require_audit_write_scope replaced with hmac.compare_digest for constant-time comparison.

Tests Added

  • tests/test_lineage_v2_cache_coherence.py — 4 @autonomous_critical tests (CACHE-01/02/03/04)
  • tests/test_audit_auth_telemetry.py — 6 @autonomous_critical tests (AUDIT-TEL-01)

Still Open (GA-blocking)

  • FINDING-66-003: Patent filing — awaiting provisional application number from IP counsel.
  • FINDING-66-004: Ed25519 2-of-3 key ceremony — runbook delivered; ceremony execution deferred to key holders.

World-First: Constitutionally-Governed Shadow Execution Against Live Traffic

ADAAD now executes proposed mutations in a zero-write, read-only shadow against its own live production request traffic before governance approval — the first governed autonomous evolution system to use live traffic as a fitness signal while maintaining all constitutional guarantees through an enforced zero-write shadow contract.

New module: runtime/evolution/lsme_engine.py

  • ShadowContract — constitutional zero-write contract; is_zero_write() enforces LSME-0: all three fields (write, egress, db) MUST be False before any shadow runs
  • ShadowBudget — resource bounds: wall-clock ms, CPU ms, memory MB, max requests
  • TrafficRequest / BaselineResponse / ShadowResponse — request/response data types
  • ShadowFitnessReport — complete evidence artifact: divergence_rate, error_delta, P99 latency delta, invariant_failures, shadow_responses; hash-chained; ledger-ready
  • evaluate_lsme_gate_0() — pre-execution gate: contract checks (1-3), AST write/egress scan (4-5), budget advisory (6); only LSME_BUDGET_EXCEEDED is non-blocking
  • evaluate_lsme_gate_1() — post-execution gate: divergence rate, error regression, P99 latency regression, invariant failures, trace archival (LSME-1)

Invariants introduced:

  • LSME-0: Shadow execution MUST be zero-write. Write or egress detection (AST or runtime) is a hard block and HUMAN-0 alert. LSME_BUDGET_EXCEEDED is the only non-blocking failure — mutation proceeds on synthetic fitness only.
  • LSME-1: ShadowFitnessReport MUST be committed to the evidence ledger BEFORE any divergence comparison begins. trace_committed=False → LSME_SHADOW_ABORTED always.

Failure modes: LSME_WRITE_DETECTED, LSME_EGRESS_DETECTED, LSME_BUDGET_EXCEEDED, LSME_ERROR_REGRESSION, LSME_LATENCY_REGRESSION, LSME_TRACE_INCOMPLETE, LSME_CONTRACT_VIOLATION, LSME_INVARIANT_FAILURE, LSME_DIVERGENCE_EXCEEDED

Tests: tests/test_phase91_lsme.py — T91-LSME-01..20 (20/20 PASS)

[9.23.0] — 2026-03-23 — Phase 90 INNOV-06 · Cryptographic Evolution Proof DAG (CEPD)

World-First: Cryptographic DAG Proof of Evolutionary Lineage

ADAAD now produces an unbreakable, tamper-evident proof of evolutionary lineage from genesis to current state — the first autonomous evolution system to generate a cryptographic DAG linking every mutation to ALL of its causal ancestors via Merkle root. CryptographicProofBundle is independently verifiable by third parties without system access, and is structured for legal admissibility (FINDING-66-003).

New module: runtime/evolution/cepd_engine.py

  • CEPDDagNode — DAG node: mutation_id, epoch_id, parent_node_ids, ancestor_merkle_root, payload_hash, HMAC/Ed25519 signature, cepd_version
  • CryptographicProofBundle — self-contained proof: dag_node + complete ancestor_set + merkle_root + lineage_depth + genesis_traceable + bundle_hash; primary patent artifact
  • CEPDDagStore — append-only in-memory DAG; genesis pre-seeded; BFS genesis traceability
  • compute_ancestor_merkle_root() — deterministic SHA-256 Merkle over sorted ancestor IDs
  • verify_merkle_determinism() — CEPD-0 self-check; two independent computations
  • evaluate_cepd_gate_0() — 5-check DAG integrity gate; fail-closed; appends node on pass
  • verify_proof_bundle() — independent verifier surface (no system access required)
  • sign_node() / verify_signature() — HMAC-SHA256 (offline) or Ed25519 (PyNaCl)

Invariants introduced:

  • CEPD-0: Every DAG node MUST carry an ancestor_merkle_root that is deterministically reproducible from its causal ancestor set alone (CEPD_MERKLE_NONDETERMINISTIC → rejected).
  • CEPD-1: Every DAG node MUST be traceable to the genesis node by following parent edges (CEPD_GENESIS_UNTRACEABLE is a constitutional integrity failure; HUMAN-0 alert required).

Failure modes: CEPD_ANCESTOR_INCOMPLETE, CEPD_SIGNATURE_INVALID, CEPD_MERKLE_NONDETERMINISTIC, CEPD_GENESIS_UNTRACEABLE, CEPD_DEPTH_EXCEEDED, CEPD_NODE_INCOMPLETE, CEPD_NODE_REJECTED

Tests: tests/test_phase90_cepd.py — T90-CEPD-01..20 (20/20 PASS)

Next: INNOV-07 LSME (v9.24.0) — Live Shadow Mutation Execution

[9.22.0] — 2026-03-23 — Phase 89 INNOV-05 · Autonomous Organ Emergence Protocol (AOEP)

World-First: Constitutionally-Governed Autonomous Architectural Self-Extension

ADAAD can now autonomously identify behavioral gaps in its capability surface and propose entirely new organs — new architectural subsystems — to address those gaps. All proposals require HUMAN-0 ratification; no organ constitutionally exists until the ratification event is appended to governance_events.jsonl.

New module: runtime/evolution/aoep_protocol.py

  • CapabilityGapSignal — detected capability gap: sustained_epochs, affected mutation classes, candidate_organ_purpose, deterministic gap_id + gap_hash
  • FailurePatternSummary — recurring failure patterns attributed to a structural gap
  • OrganManifestEntry — single organ in the current organ manifest (capability surface)
  • OrganProposal — formal proposal for a new organ; always status PENDING_HUMAN_0 on GATE-0 pass; human_0_required is unconditionally True
  • Human0RatificationPayload — HUMAN-0 sign-off bundle: proposal_id, ratification_hash, operator_id, timestamp, human_0_signature, predecessor_hash
  • RatificationRecord — hash-chained ledger-ready record of GATE-1 outcome
  • AOEPCooldownTracker — per-gap re-evaluation cooldown (AOEP_REEVAL_COOLDOWN_EPOCHS=5)
  • evaluate_aoep_gate_0() — 5-check gap qualification gate; fail-closed
  • evaluate_aoep_gate_1() — HUMAN-0 ratification gate; AOEP-0 non-bypassable

Invariant introduced:

  • AOEP-0: Every OrganProposal MUST be submitted to HUMAN-0 before implementation. AOEP-GATE-1 has NO automated bypass — empty human_0_signature ALWAYS produces AOEP_HUMAN_0_BLOCKED; the organ does not constitutionally exist until ratification event is appended to governance_events.jsonl.

Failure modes: AOEP_GAP_UNQUALIFIED, AOEP_GAP_ADDRESSABLE, AOEP_HUMAN_0_BLOCKED, AOEP_PROPOSAL_INCOMPLETE, AOEP_MANIFEST_CONFLICT, AOEP_INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY, AOEP_INSUFFICIENT_PATTERNS, AOEP_SIGNATURE_MISSING, AOEP_RATIFICATION_HASH_MISMATCH

Tests: tests/test_phase89_aoep.py — T89-AOEP-01..20 (20/20 PASS)

Next: INNOV-06 CEPD (v9.23.0) — Cryptographic Evolution Proof DAG

[9.21.0] — 2026-03-23 — Phase 87 INNOV-04 · Semantic Constitutional Drift Detector (SCDD)

World-First: Semantic Drift Detection for Constitutional Invariants

ADAAD now detects when constitutional invariants have drifted semantically — when the same rule text begins governing a different behavioral surface due to system substrate evolution — the first autonomous evolution system to distinguish rule text stability from behavioral coverage drift across epochs.

New module: runtime/evolution/scdd_engine.py

  • BehavioralSurfaceSnapshot — per-epoch empirical statistics of how a rule fires: evaluations, blocks, block_rate, mean_fitness_delta_blocked, touched_mutation_classes
  • SemanticInvariantFingerprint — deterministic fingerprint composed of statement_hash
    • surface_hash + composite_hash; basis for cross-epoch drift comparison
  • DriftVector — per-invariant drift measurement: coverage_delta (40%), precision_delta (30%), class_surface_delta (30%); statement change adds 0.10 bonus; clamped to [0, 1]
  • ConstitutionalDriftReport — full output; hash-chained; produced on ALL outcomes (STABLE, REVIEW_REQUIRED, BLOCKED); contains all DriftVectors + max_drift_score
  • SCDDEvaluationInput — input bundle: baseline fingerprints, current fingerprints, rule statements, predecessor_hash
  • compute_semantic_fingerprint() — deterministic; SHA-256(statement) + SHA-256(surface JSON) → SHA-256(statement_hash + surface_hash); replay-verified
  • compute_drift_vector() — weighted composite of coverage, precision, class-surface delta + statement change bonus; _classify_drift() maps score → DriftClass
  • evaluate_scdd_gate_0() — 7-check gate; fail-closed; full report on all outcomes

Invariant introduced:

  • SCDD-0: SCDD MUST run every N epochs; any invariant with semantic drift score ≥ SCDD_CRITICAL_THRESHOLD (0.75) MUST produce SCDD_BLOCKED outcome, blocking further mutation progress until the drifted invariant is reviewed through CSAP.

Failure modes covered: SCDD_CRITICAL_DRIFT_FOUND, SCDD_FINGERPRINT_NONDETERMINISTIC, SCDD_BASELINE_MISSING, SCDD_EMPTY_INVARIANT_SET, SCDD_SURFACE_HASH_CONFLICT

Drift classification thresholds: STABLE < 0.30 ≤ MINOR < 0.55 ≤ MAJOR < 0.75 ≤ CRITICAL

Tests: tests/test_phase87_innov04_scdd.py — T87-SCDD-01..20 (20/20 PASS)

Next: INNOV-05 AOEP (v9.22.0) — Autonomous Organ Emergence Protocol

[9.20.0] — 2026-03-23 — Phase 87 INNOV-03 · Temporal Invariant Forecasting Engine (TIFE)

World-First: Multi-Epoch Constitutional Pre-Validation

ADAAD now evaluates proposed mutations against simulated future system states before governance approval — the first autonomous evolution system to implement multi-epoch constitutional pre-validation. Governance transforms from reactive to predictive.

New module: runtime/evolution/tife_engine.py

  • TIFEMutationInput — mutation projection enriched with capability deltas, governance debt, trajectory flags
  • VisionProjection — trajectory forecast baseline (dead-end paths, debt trajectory, capability deltas)
  • CapabilityGraphSnapshot — CapabilityGraphV2 projection; non_redundant_ids() for regression detection
  • InvariantEvaluationReport — per-epoch invariant status, projected debt, ISI contribution
  • TemporalViabilityReport — full output; hash-chained; specifies first_violation_epoch on BLOCKED
  • evaluate_tife_gate_0() — 5-check temporal viability gate; fail-closed; report on both outcomes
  • analyse_isi_trend() — rolling ISI health signal for AnalysisAgent; degrading/stable/improving + alert

Invariant introduced:

  • TIFE-0: Every mutation MUST pass TIFE-GATE-0 (ISI ≥ 0.85, no debt breach, no dead-end, no capability regression) before GovernanceGate v2. Failed mutations enter temporal_hold; TemporalViabilityReport specifies the remediation epoch.

Failure modes covered: TIFE_ISI_BELOW_THRESHOLD, TIFE_DEBT_HORIZON_BREACH, TIFE_TRAJECTORY_DEAD_END, TIFE_CAPABILITY_REGRESSION, TIFE_SIMULATION_NONDETERMINISTIC

Tests: tests/test_phase87_innov03_tife.py — T87-TIFE-01..20 (20/20 PASS)

Next: INNOV-04 SCDD (v9.21.0) — Semantic Constitutional Drift Detector

[9.19.0] — 2026-03-23 — Phase 87 INNOV-02 · Adversarial Constitutional Stress Engine (ACSE)

World-First: Governed Constitutional Adversarial Red-Teaming

ADAAD now red-teams its own mutation proposals and constitutional amendments before they advance to GovernanceGate v2. ACSE is the immune system's attack function — the system stress-tests itself constitutionally before anything merges.

New module: runtime/evolution/acse_engine.py

  • MutationCandidate — minimal projection of a mutation fed to ACSE; decoupled from full mutation model
  • AdversarialBudget — resource envelope: wall-clock ms, LLM call quota, max vector count
  • AdversarialTestVector — single deterministic adversarial probe; class, verdict, violation detail, seed audit
  • AdversarialEvidenceBundle — full output package; hash-chained; mandatory GovernanceGate v2 input
  • derive_adversarial_seed() — SHA-256(lineage_digest + epoch_id); determinism-verified on every run
  • _generate_invariant_probe_vectors() — ≥ 5 canonical vectors per touched invariant class (ACSE-0)
  • _generate_boundary_stress_vectors() — one probe per claimed fitness threshold at 1% boundary delta
  • _generate_replay_interference_vectors() — 3 isolation-context replay probes
  • evaluate_acse_gate_0() — 8-check gate; fail-closed; full AdversarialEvidenceBundle on all outcomes
  • acse_csap_gate1_check() — hardened CSAP-GATE-1 check 3: advisory → hard FAIL; ACSE_CLEAR bundle required

Invariants introduced:

  • ACSE-0: ACSE MUST produce ≥ 5 deterministic adversarial test vectors per invariant class touched before any mutation proceeds to GovernanceGate v2
  • ACSE-1: AdversarialEvidenceBundle MUST be hash-chained and archived before mutation state advances

Failure modes covered: ACSE_BOUNDARY_BREACH, ACSE_VIOLATION_FOUND, ACSE_BUDGET_EXCEEDED, ACSE_SEED_NONDETERMINISTIC, ACSE_COUNTER_EVIDENCE_UNSIGNED

CSAP integration: CSAP-GATE-1 check 3 hardened from advisory to hard FAIL. Any amendment without ACSE_CLEAR bundle is now unconditionally rejected.

Tests: tests/test_phase87_innov02_acse.py — T87-ACSE-01..20 (20/20 PASS)

Next: INNOV-03 TIFE (v9.20.0) — Temporal Invariant Forecasting Engine

[9.18.0] — 2026-03-23 — Phase 87 INNOV-01 · Constitutional Self-Amendment Protocol (CSAP)

World-First: Governed Constitutional Self-Amendment

ADAAD can now propose, validate, and cryptographically ratify amendments to its own constitutional invariant set under a two-gate supermajority protocol.

New module: runtime/evolution/csap_protocol.py

  • ConstitutionalAmendmentProposal — machine-readable proposal dataclass; content_hash() deterministic
  • InvariantParser — structural parser enforcing modal-verb grammar; deterministic; no IO
  • InvariantsMatrix — full invariant registry; apply_amendment() returns new matrix (immutable); original never mutated
  • ConstitutionalAmendmentQueue — append-only persisted proposal queue (CSAP-GATE-1 check 1)
  • ConstitutionalAmendmentLedger — append-only ledger; verify_chain() predecessor-hash audit; CSAP-1 enforced
  • evaluate_csap_gate_0() — six deterministic eligibility checks; fail-closed
  • evaluate_csap_gate_1() — six ratification checks; fitness regression delta gate; ACSE advisory hook
  • ConstitutionalSelfAmendmentProtocol — orchestrator; CSAP-1 ledger-before-matrix ordering enforced

Invariants introduced:

  • CSAP-0: Hard-class amendment MUST NOT proceed without HUMAN-0 co-signature — enforced in CSAP-GATE-0 check 6
  • CSAP-1: Ledger MUST be written before InvariantsMatrix is mutated — enforced in orchestrator evaluate()

Failure modes covered: AMENDMENT_INELIGIBLE, RATIFICATION_DENIED, AMENDMENT_CONFLICT, AMENDMENT_REPLAY_BROKEN, INVARIANT_PARSER_REJECT

Tests: tests/test_phase87_innov01_csap.py — T87-CSAP-01..20 (20/20 PASS)

Next: INNOV-02 ACSE (v9.19.0) — when ACSE ships, CSAP-GATE-1 check 3 hardens from advisory to hard FAIL.
