Odeya is the architecture foundation for a private research engine that turns a thesis into a governed, replayable chain from question to evidence to warranted claim.
Current state — 2026-09-01: architecture foundation only. No executable research engine, autonomous-science capability, production deployment, or automatic publication is claimed. Gate A remains blocked; runtime stays prohibited until Gate A is accepted, any separately authorized Gate B probes are settled, and Gate C explicitly authorizes one bounded increment. The active release-surface successor is local and unsettled after permanent candidate
d2704667failed two attempt-1 hosted jobs and unpublished local successor506a6444was rejected by exact-object review before any remote ref was created.
The provisional web address is odeya.danielwahnich.dev. The apex domain, company, trademark, and scientific-publication decisions remain separate.
Much of this repository is written as an internal evidence trail. This table is the external entry point; the reviewer reading map gives the reading order, a glossary, and where each kind of evidence lives.
| Category | What it contains | Where to verify |
|---|---|---|
| Retained byte-bound release-engineering evidence | Exact-commit fresh-clone rehearsals that rebuild their named subjects from clean clones; least-privilege CI workflows with full-SHA-pinned Actions; a hash- and integrity-locked toolchain; 7 bounded TLA+ models whose 30 intended counterexamples are retained in-tree; adversarial known-bad manifests beside every isolated suite. Resolve the current candidate and its own manifest before transferring any claim | scripts/ci/rehearse-fresh-clone.sh, .github/workflows/, tools/repository-release/, formal/tla/, tests/, repository release engineering |
| In progress: architecture evidence | A schema/fixture corpus with isolated contract suites, and a mutation audit that measures which refusal guards are proved to fire versus explicitly unproved — the split is retained honestly rather than rounded up. Counts drift as tranches land, so they are stated only in validator-bound surfaces, not in this summary row | Current status and blockers, the validator-bound checkpoint section below, architecture/ machine records |
| Not built, not claimed | No engine runtime, services, deployment, or production UI exists; Gate A (architecture acceptance) remains blocked; no scientific result, autonomous-science capability, or model-performance claim is made | The banner above, pre-implementation gate, current status |
A green check anywhere in this repository is evidence about these bytes, never scientific truth.
Question → contract → evidence → separately assigned verification → bounded claim. Nothing jumps the chain.

The upper band is the current operational story. Public main remains
1d5cfe8; 24ae6f6, a7d3869, and d2704667 are immutable failed siblings;
the release correction and frozen b992627 claim tranche are separate
children. A tracked
file cannot contain the hash of the commit that contains it, so resolve the
correction's exact HEAD, parent, tree, manifests, refs, and remote checks from
Git and subject-bound receipts. No observation transfers across those subjects.
The middle band is a required sequence, not a report of completion. Static parser acceptance is not rendering; a rendered SVG is not semantic review; neither is publication authority. The lower bands keep scientific state and general external-effect release authority separate. Both remain proposed control architecture, not runtime screenshots. Models may propose, search, code, analyze, and criticize. They cannot grant themselves authority, grade their own claims, turn agreement into evidence, or treat a provider response as external truth.
- Contract before cognition. Scope, protocol, falsifiers, resources, rights, and authority are explicit before consequential work.
- Evidence before narrative. Every claim traverses to exact inputs, artifacts, environments, costs, methods, and producing activity.
- Verification is separately assigned. Producing and verifying a scientific claim require separate roles, contexts, and retained records; organizational independence must be evidenced, never inferred from isolation or agreement.
- Nulls and failures are first-class results. Missing is never zero; blocked, invalid, contradicted, and inconclusive outcomes remain visible.
- Every external effect is separately governed. Publication, repository writes, paid compute, messages, lab actions, and physical actions require exact scoped authority and independent settlement.
Odeya is being extracted from three active research tracks rather than invented from an abstract agent demo:
| Mission | What it contributes |
|---|---|
| Sentinel | Measurement discipline, runtime monitoring, failure localization, and bounded transfer claims around autonomous-driving systems |
| Telos | External verification, deliberately broken positive controls, correction discipline, and tests of whether benchmark success survives contact with the intended outcome |
| Inbar | Physical causal evidence, prospective intervention tests, evidence admissibility, and separation of proposal, safety, execution, truth, outcome, and publication authority |
They are requirements sources and bounded proof missions—not runtime dependencies and not proof that Odeya is already implemented. Their exact role and current limitations are retained in the proof-layer snapshot.
The current retained foundation contains 144 Draft 2020-12 schemas, 908 shared-manifest cases (244 valid and 664 known-bad), 17 isolated contract suites, 19 architecture-evidence checks, and 7 bounded TLA+ models with 30 mutation controls. These counts are bound to the validator run that measures them; the README previously stated four of them as fact while all four had drifted.
The integrated Foundation validator keeps a 30-second fail-fast default for
ordinary child checks. The PRQ-002 predecessor wrapper receives 90 seconds;
PRQ-002E, G, and H receive 60 seconds; and PRQ-002F and I receive 120 seconds.
The repository-release checker separately receives 120 seconds after the same
attempt-1 hosted subject measured approximately 45.216 seconds. Eight
timeout-policy known-bads prove those narrow exceptions and their executable
function bindings cannot be lowered, bypassed, rebound, decorated away, or
widened into an unreviewed global relaxation. Both hosted Architecture
evidence evaluator steps also remove the exact admitted shell, language,
archive, and native-loader controls before installing or executing selected
toolchains; a twenty-third workflow-policy known-bad removes the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH isolation and must be refused. ADR
0115
records the failed candidate and the bounded successor decision. The Formal
workflow separately fetches its pinned artifact before language setup, admits
exactly one setup-Java and one setup-Python action in that order, keeps both
Formal shell checks after setup-Python, and invokes a harness that refuses Java
and native-loader preload variables. Sixteen semantic release-surface
known-bads move or repeat fetch/execution, reverse or duplicate language setup,
replace a verified artifact, add continue-on-error, reintroduce loader state,
remove a loader boundary, or weaken the final Git-status check. They also
inject a YAML-escaped loader variable before setup, skip the required job, or
substitute a job container. Two runner-byte attacks execute Java before the
guard or reconstruct loader state dynamically after it. Each must be refused
by the dedicated Formal semantic boundary even when the generic governed-file
hash closure is disabled.
Those results establish structural and bounded semantic evidence only, and their strength is measured by mutation rather than assumed. The lifecycle checker is audited explicitly: 222 of 229 refusal statements are proved reachable by disabling each in turn, and 108 of 111 removable guard conditions are proved load-bearing (ADR 0052–0054, 0065–0066, 0090). Its named residue is retained rather than converted into a flattering completeness claim.
The separately declared generalized-audit census excludes lifecycle and
central architecture/release gates. Under the retained v0.2 method, a guard is
proved only when a syntax-valid isolated mutation produces an exact
suite-reported refusal—exit 1, non-empty output, and no traceback—the restored
control passes, and an identical repeat produces the same framed SHA-256
fingerprint. In the current record, across 17 declared isolated checker subjects, 501 of 1260 refusal statements are proved to fire, with 759 retained explicitly as unproved and zero crash-only detections;
unstable repeats are also unproved (ADR 0079–0085,
0098–0100, 0103–0104). The prq-002-identity-cohort subject contributes 0/127,
product-identity-profile-candidate contributes 0/97 with all 97 open, and
product-identity-profile-0.3-candidate contributes 24/72 with 48 open.
The immediately preceding unpublished 502/1260 record is superseded: a
clean-clone run exposed a one-credit reproducibility mismatch, and a separate
exact but unretained ablation showed the locally credited predecessor-profile
row was false. The retained failure receipt proves only the failed stage, not
the count or cause. The former 16-subject 477/1184 measurement and its 0/93
product-identity-profile-candidate row are likewise superseded because the
registered subject census and checker bytes changed; they are not additional
current denominators. The earlier 431/820 result is retracted: mutation of the
self-bound assurance checker invalidated its outer evidence binding, so the
audit credited that binding failure rather than the intended guard. The
corrected harness refreshes the declared binding only inside each isolated
mutation copy and proves its own unrefreshed/refreshed behavior before
measuring.
Separately, the declared known-bad refusal corpora are checked by a census that fails closed on any unattributed case (ADR 0062), and each of the 158 predecessor cross-field schema rules with a case is proven to notice its own deletion by two-sided ablation (ADR 0071–0073). Coverage is still not correctness: a proved guard is exercised, not shown to enforce the right rule; the generalized harness does not prove exact case-to-guard causality; structural comparisons count as one condition regardless of field count; and ADR 0030's caution stands. Every coverage figure this repository previously published was wrong in the flattering direction until context-isolated adversarial review corrected it, and the corrections are retained.
ADR 0099
adds a bounded PRQ-002A structural probe without changing the 120-product-schema
census: nine architecture-only schemas describe 21 non-issuable probe objects
and 20 structured digests. Its isolated suite retains 47 cases—one safe and 46
known-bad—and two source- and language-separated result documents whose current
recomputation path is provenance-attested. This is not independence, issuance,
PRQ-002 closure, an EngineContractRoot, activation, runtime, or Gate A
evidence; the probe identifiers cannot be promoted into product identities.
ADR 0100
adds a separate PRQ-002B successor candidate: four standalone product-member
schemas, one ordered-map commitment schema, four pure-registry successor
schemas, and three schemas for an explicitly scoped odeya-jcs-0.2
core/evidence/migration chain. The nine product-identity schemas have nine
distinct domain contracts. Exact current bytes and the frozen 120-schema
predecessor cohort reconcile to a disjoint 132-schema candidate union; the
predecessor audit remains frozen at 120 schemas and 216 fixtures. The retained
structural vectors are explicitly nonidentity fixtures. No product member,
commitment, snapshot, canonical digest, profile member, root, or activation was
constructed; both profiles remain unissued, PRQ-002 remains open, Gate A
remains blocked, and runtime remains unauthorized.
ADR 0101
records the PRQ-002C interoperability blocker and one bounded observation of
the proposed raw-token rule. Two source- and language-separated implementations
agree on the complete staged projection for 61 opaque, answer-free synthetic
integer-position frames: 9 are accepted and 52 are refused, and 44
suite-gate known-bads fire. The input, implementation, and execution artifacts
are generation .0003; the corrected comparison is .0004 and the corrected
expectation manifest is .0005. The execution receipts are fresh-challenge,
self-attested byte-consistency records, not independently witnessed historical
process captures. The stale implementation-causal-binding gate refuses an
inconsistent relabel only; it does not prove refusal of a coherently relabelled
copy or causal execution origin. The 44 gate attacks exercise exact JSON types
and shapes, strict parsing, suite inventory, dependency and source-import
boundaries, timestamps, comparison, scope, independence, attestation, and
authority; they are not semantic-branch source ablations. This is evidence
only for the fixed integer-type and
integer-valued-const microframes. It does not establish generic schema-path
evaluation, number-position semantics, unique instance-pointer retention,
exclusion of dynamically discovered paths, nine-domain framing, ordered-map
laws, cross-object replay, an offline registry, organizational independence,
independent-host reproduction, or full successor-profile conformance. The
frozen odeya-jcs-0.2 bytes remain unissued and blocked from conformance and
issuance. The separate odeya-jcs-0.3 construction candidate described below
does not amend or establish conformance for those bytes. No product
identity, PRQ-002 closure, Gate A acceptance, runtime authority, or publication
authority follows from this evidence. Architecture-repository publication
remains separately governed by the exact-commit release contract; profile
issuance and scientific-results publication remain unauthorized.
ADR 0102
adds a bounded, non-product PRQ-002D prehash replay before any structured or
product identity exists. Two source- and language-separated implementations
evaluate the complete ordered projection for 68 opaque virtual-file frames:
one is accepted and 67 are refused under one fixed private oracle. The parent
gate retains 77 known-bad mutations, each of which must produce its declared
singleton guard, and binds the predecessor commit, tree, cited blobs, runner
sources, locked dependencies, raw inputs, complete results, execution
receipts, and comparison projection by exact bytes. Evidence authoring stages
and validates the complete generated graph before replacing the comparison
receipt last. The receipts remain self-attested byte-consistency records, not
independently witnessed process evidence; the source controls are bounded
inventories, not process sandboxes or general static analyses. The proposition
does not establish canonicalization-profile conformance, complete offline
resolution, dependency-closed product registries, organizational
independence, product identity, admission, PRQ-002 closure, Gate A acceptance,
runtime authority, or publication authority. The frozen odeya-jcs-0.2 bytes
remain unissued.
ADR 0103
constructs the required side-by-side odeya-jcs-0.3 architecture candidate:
twelve final-only successor schemas, nine structural-nonidentity fixtures,
three ordered candidate records, and a separate seven-output observation
transaction over the resulting fifteen immutable subjects. Two source- and
language-separated observers agree on the complete exact-byte fifteen-row
projection. That agreement is bounded construction evidence only. It does not
prove the static schema-position inventory, complete per-subject raw-number
applicability traces, canonicalization conformance, complete offline
resolution, organizational independence, product identity, profile or
resource issuance/admission, PRQ-002 closure, Gate A acceptance, runtime
authority, or publication authority.
The PRQ-013 T0 byte-bound/recomputation tranche now retains candidate evidence
under ADR 0095:
five unissued successor schemas, seven schema-valid fixtures, 14
content-addressed synthetic backing preimages independently rederived from
their retained bytes, 44 expectation-free vectors, and 49 downstream chain
known-bads. Three
source-separated, non-sharing evaluators produced 132 exact recomputations
(44 each under Python 3.14.2, Node.js 24.18.0, and Temurin Java 21.0.9), and
the comparison binds all six output fields: participant_id,
domain_results, categorical_results, categorical_failures,
final_disposition, and reason_codes. Any fixed times in this evidence are
deterministic fixture times only.
This is stronger bounded defect-detection evidence, not organizational
independence: the implementations share the normative contracts and this work
has not proved organizationally independent authorship or review.
The 0.1 resources remain immutable and unissued, and every successor is also
unissued. The retained eleven-round, context-isolated technical-review report
records no_grounded_refutation_observed_within_declared_attacks for the exact
reissued scope only: round eleven reproduced the Gate and generator local Git
readers, corrected PRQ-013 truth bindings, closure, install, cross-runtime, and
full-integration controls. The reissued scope .0005 is rooted
at sha256:97062b38a14d5bdccf5ad87c547c62388e7cd82256a445f631856aecee54e1d9;
closure observation .0003, install observation .0004, 25 context-review
known-bads including a live generator-path control, and two integration-truth
controls survived only the declared round-eleven checks. The report is
correlated, non-accountable model-worker evidence—not a
ReviewDetermination, organizational independence, or Gate A acceptance—and
all HDA-CTX-001 through HDA-CTX-016 findings remain pending accountable
closure review.
No real ceremony occurred, no current consumer is migrated, and no T1/T2,
wrapper, end-to-end consumer refusal, accountable review, or operator Gate A
decision is complete. Gate A remains blocked,
with no runtime, cloud, or deployment authority.
The architecture is a modular scientific kernel with isolated cognitive workers around it:
- deterministic state, authority, budgets, lineage, and claim eligibility in the kernel;
- selective model and tool intelligence behind typed work contracts;
- content-addressed evidence and replayable event history;
- separately isolated verification and adversarial adjudication;
- explicit recovery, correction, publication, and external-effect protocols; and
- provider-neutral ports, with infrastructure kept outside scientific meaning.
Odeya is independent from Aweb and Maestro in runtime, storage, namespace, control, scientific authority, and release authority. The intended boundary is a private engine, private evaluation suites, and private operating knowledge. Papers, datasets, benchmarks, and mission code may be released mission by mission only through explicit rights, safety, evidence, and publication gates.
This architecture repository is licensed under the Apache License 2.0; see CONTRIBUTING.md and SECURITY.md for how to engage with it. No domain purchase, company filing, outreach, or product deployment is implied, and runtime, release, and Gate A authority remain exclusively with the repository owner.

The architecture validator runs without a development server:
python3 -m venv .venv-architecture
.venv-architecture/bin/python -m pip install \
--require-hashes \
--only-binary=:all: \
--requirement tools/repository-release/requirements-architecture.lock
.venv-architecture/bin/python scripts/validate.pyRepository-release checks have two explicit, non-interchangeable profiles. The required hosted profile validates the repository contract and parses the exact seven governed Mermaid sources without launching a browser:
/bin/bash --noprofile --norc -p \
scripts/ci/check-repository-release.sh ci-staticThe full local profile is mandatory for exact-commit rehearsal. It repeats the static checks, provisions the pinned Chrome for Testing boundary, renders all seven sources, and retains every SVG plus a source/output review receipt:
/bin/bash --noprofile --norc -p \
scripts/ci/check-repository-release.sh full-localA static receipt cannot satisfy a full rehearsal or publication precondition. Neither profile reviews diagram meaning or grants publication, Gate A, or runtime authority.
After fetching the digest-verified JAR described in the formal-model guide, use its exact environment-isolated reproduction boundary:
/usr/bin/env -u JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS -u _JAVA_OPTIONS -u JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS \
-u LD_PRELOAD -u LD_LIBRARY_PATH \
-u DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES -u DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH \
/bin/bash --noprofile --norc -p formal/tla/check.shWhich refusal statements have a retained mutation proof is measured rather than assumed. The lifecycle checker has its own dedicated statement and condition audits. The generalized v0.2 audit covers a separate declared checker census; lifecycle is excluded while the PRQ-002E checker is included. It requires a syntax-valid mutation, an exact suite-reported refusal, a passing restored control, and an identical repeated refusal fingerprint. It does not attribute the result to an exact case ID:
python3 scripts/audit_lifecycle_guard_coverage.py # lifecycle statements, ~90s
python3 scripts/audit_suite_guard_coverage.py # declared non-lifecycle checker census; duration variesSee repository release engineering for the exact CI jobs, threat boundary, toolchain pins, and fresh-clone rehearsal. A green check is evidence about this repository snapshot; it is never scientific truth or Gate A acceptance.
Repository-governance bootstrap and the first exact-SHA activation were
observed on 2026-07-19. Bootstrap candidate
a25d026bd7233dfc452accc6087ded0bf015d7b4 remains at its permanent release
ref. Distinct post-account-state candidate
f1f25fd336daa1dd2707ba36b832e8d5c5e41d3e then passed all four workflows
and ten jobs at its permanent release ref, was same-SHA promoted to main,
passed four new post-main workflows and ten jobs, reproduced from remote
main, compared equal by the admitted invariant profile, and settled the
read-only activation receipt. GitHub read-back observed active no-bypass
release and main rulesets (IDs 19178198 and 19178503), disabled pull
requests, the inert rebase-only merge configuration, full-SHA Action admission,
and read-only workflow tokens. The controls remain active but must be freshly
read back for every publication; no descendant inherits f1f25fd's
subject-bound checks, replay, comparison, or activation receipt. None grants
Gate A or runtime authority.
Three direct-child release candidates of the current 1d5cfe8 baseline remain
permanent negative evidence.
24ae6f6 refused when an ambient runner browser advanced from Chrome major
150 to 151. Its replacement sibling a7d3869 pinned exact Chrome for Testing
150.0.7871.24, but the required hosted job failed when the Ubuntu AppArmor
boundary denied a usable browser sandbox. Neither candidate was rerun or
promoted. ADR 0114
keeps exact rendering mandatory in full rehearsal while moving the required
hosted check to acceptance by one exact pinned public Mermaid parser. That is
a tool- and version-scoped observation, not a language-standard grammar proof.
It forbids --no-sandbox or
machine-wide security weakening as a way to make a check green.
September candidate d2704667 then retained three successful attempt-1
workflow families, but Foundation under-budgeted a repository-release checker
observed at approximately 45.216 seconds and Architecture evidence passed
setup-Python's LD_LIBRARY_PATH into a correctly fail-closed Node installer.
It was not rerun or promoted; public main remained unchanged. ADR
0115
binds the fresh sibling's 120-second path-specific checker budget, exact
two-step cross-tool environment isolation, and new known-bad proofs.
On 2026-07-30, direct child 617209ba completed its own candidate and
post-main four-workflow/ten-job censuses, remote-main replay, comparison, and
final ref read-back. Its first PRQ-002E child f1bb98d then retained a
permanent candidate ref, but its attempt-1 census stopped at nine of ten
successful jobs. The Foundation job reported two internal child-process
TimeoutExpired diagnostics; the workflow and job were not reported as
GitHub timeouts. It was not promoted and has no successful candidate-checks or
remote-main evidence. The corrected replacement sibling then completed the
ordinary exact-SHA sequence in full: its own local rehearsal, candidate
governance, four candidate workflows with ten attempt-1 jobs at its permanent
release ref, same-SHA fast-forward promotion, four new attempt-1 post-main
runs, remote-main replay and comparison, and a final live exact-ref
read-back. That settlement belongs to that exact commit alone; no descendant
inherits it.
The sole current repository mission is the unpublished release-surface correction described in the current handoff and ADR 0114, as extended by ADR 0115. It must become one clean direct child of the exact public baseline, pass both release profiles plus Foundation, formal, full fresh-clone, manifest replay, and context-isolated review on that exact subject, and retain its local evidence. A permanent candidate ref still requires fresh operator authority naming the final SHA and one accountable publisher; publication then requires the complete candidate, promotion, remote-main replay, comparison, and final read-back sequence. Until those steps settle, the correction is local and unpublished.
The public baseline already retains the bounded PRQ-002F through PRQ-002I machine chain: raw-aware numeric traces and cross-object conformance over the fifteen frozen construction subjects, profile-bounded JCS serialization, nine-domain frame governance, and a declared 199-member universe with 6,456 offline schema-reference edges and 241 replayed digest bindings. Four historical resource identities remain explicitly unresolved. This is retained architecture evidence, not product identity, profile issuance, admission, PRQ-002 closure, Gate A acceptance, or runtime authority.
After release settlement, the next scientific frontier is deliberately human:
an accountable non-author review of the open findings and Daniel's exact-byte
accept/reject/amend decision on the odeya-jcs-0.3 profile. No observer
agreement, structural vector, generated review, or green validator may supply
either decision.
The canonical-migration wave is closed at audit zero (ADRs 0032–0050): all six blocking finding classes — 1,222 findings in total — now measure zero, every reissue ledgered so each reissued schema's predecessor verifies against its recorded checkpoint commit, and the audit reports gate_a_disposition: candidate_clear. The profile nevertheless remains unissued: freezing it requires independent review of the executed wave and the operator's exact-byte decision, which no session can grant itself. ADR 0097 adds a separate meta-evaluator after a copied Python result relabelled with Node metadata passed the existing comparator; retained oracle conformity and case-projection agreement therefore remain distinct from causal execution-origin evidence, which is still unwitnessed. That executed wave was attacked across four rounds of context-isolated adversarial review (ADRs 0051, 0063, 0069, 0077), each briefed to refute; each round found real defects — a fabricated disposition field in the evidence writer, a publication path a plain git push bypassed, coverage audits that could regenerate their own records — and each is retracted in place with corrected, re-measured figures. Those reviewers were context-isolated but not independent: they shared the producer's provider, model family, and prompt family, five of the twelve correlation axes ModelConfigurationRecord already enumerates, and that is recorded rather than glossed (see the reviewer-agent proposal). The ADR 0095 refutation followed the same discipline. T1 AuthorityAssignment is the next PRQ-013 downstream tranche only after the four named T0 prerequisites—canonical schema-identity candidate closure, standalone member-record contracts, PRQ-005 through PRQ-010 candidate corrections, and PRQ-013 individual-assurance-foundation candidate closure—are satisfied. The constitutional root/checkpoint/activation chain, independent reducers and verifiers, replay/recovery/correction-fanout evidence, rights-settled proof import, accountable human reviews, an exact candidate manifest, and the owner's exact-byte decision all remain mandatory before Gate A. The closure plan and current handoff retain the dependency order and every open limitation.
Only after Gate A acceptance may the operator separately authorize a bounded Gate B probe. One bounded replayable engine slice remains prohibited until any authorized probes are settled and the operator makes a separate explicit Gate C decision.
Any future authority expansion remains blocked until one full chain of custody survives replay, interruption, negative fixtures, recovery, measured independence, accountable review, and the operator's exact decision.
