212db783a9 audit: bind the scalar statements, and make the accounting identity mean audit
Closes four round-7/8 findings. Certified by the round-12 sweep: five
repositories, both buttons and every self-test, 48/48 GREEN.

── `scalar-statements-unbound` (gpt, round 7, CRITICAL) ────────────────────
The main button bound its 31 certificates' elaborated statements and reachable
specification bodies. This button bound NONE of its thirteen, while
TRUSTED-BASE item 8 said the audit covers "every certificate" — false across
the 44-certificate surface. The finding was raised in round 7, lost from the
round-8 work list by an F-number collision between two reviewers, and re-raised
in round 8.

Proofs/ScalarAudit.lean is generated from each fork's OWN Audit.lean, so the
canonicalisation is provably the same code: pp.all rendering, whitespace
normalisation, transitive specification closure. check-scalar.sh Phase 3c pins
the block's digest, requires the committed copy to match byte-for-byte so a
mismatch can be DIFFED, and cross-checks the auditor's certificate set against
the button's CERTS array.

  dalek ecf3a3f8 · anza 0d942e47 · risc0 4b550a61 · betrusted 4b550a61

risc0 and betrusted share a digest and that is correct, not a collision: their
ScalarSubSpec.lean differs only in doc prose and in `black_box` entries inside
`simp only [...]` lists AFTER `:= by`. Proof scripts. They bind the same
statements over the same specifications, which is the documented scope.

selftest-scalar-statements.sh ships the two attacks the reviewer asked for:

  ok  gutted statement caught (cone unchanged)
  ok  rewritten specification body caught (name and cone unchanged)

The second rewrites a reachable reference body to `id (…)` — DEFINITIONALLY
EQUAL, so the corpus compiles and every proof typechecks and the cone is
byte-identical. Every earlier phase is blind to it.

── `drv-surface-no-cones` + `accounting-certifies-enumeration` (claude) ────
The round-7 accounting identity proved every kernel constant was ENUMERATED.
The reviewer showed enumeration is not audit: their planted claim WAS
enumerated, as DRV|LTLAccAudit.bait.smuggled|theorem with a real cone, and
nothing examined it — rows had no cone, no allowlist covered them, the
statement digest does not reach instruments, and Phase 2b gates DECLARED
AXIOMS, a different question. "Progress of one step, not two."

DRV rows now carry their axiom cone and are pinned in driver-allowlist.txt by
inventory_gate.sh with a DRV tag — the same implementation that pins the
corpus, in both directions, because a second copy of a coverage gate is a
second thing to drift. The axiom policy is per-surface and enforced per
surface: the corpus admits exactly the sanctioned boundary, the instruments
admit none, and an instrument axiom fails EVEN WHEN ALLOWLISTED.

Verified with the reviewer's own payload, both placements:
  before the walk -> UNCLASSIFIED: DRV|…|bait.smuggled|theorem|Classical.choice,Quot.sound,propext
  after  the walk -> ACCOUNTING FAILED names it (kernel-side)

── `drv-naming-heuristic` (claude, round 7) ────────────────────────────────
Retired as load-bearing rather than patched. The rule admits a theorem whose
name extends a constant declared alongside it, and "breaks in one line" —
declare `def bait`, then `theorem bait.smuggled` walks through. It stays as a
fast readable first check; membership in a committed allowlist is what now
carries the weight, and a new row fails closed whatever it is called.

── what round 11 caught, which was mine ───────────────────────────────────
DRV rows first shipped WITHOUT their originating driver. dalek and anza run
two drivers, each declaring its own `corpus`; keyed on name alone those two
distinct declarations produced one byte-identical row, `sort -u` collapsed
them, and the trailers summed to 37 against 36. The estate had already learned
this on the corpus walk — INV rows carry their module because two modules both
declare CurveFieldProofs.zero_spec — and I rebuilt the record without it.

Rows now carry their driver, and the gate FAILS CLOSED ON DUPLICATE RECORDS
naming the collision: two declarations sharing one entry means one is covered
by the other's, which is exactly how a real declaration hides. The trailer
now checks what the drivers EMITTED, not what survives de-duplication —
conflating "the run was truncated" with "two rows were identical" is what let
a record-format defect present itself as an arithmetic complaint.

9c78ce88ae P2-b: close classes 9 and 15 — the instruments, and the places nothing looked
CLASS 15 — a Lean file where no phase was looking. The dead-file scan read
Proofs/*.lean and gen/LTLAcc/*.lean and nothing else. A module at the
verification root, or under any other gen/ subdirectory, was neither
compiled nor rejected — while remaining importable by name, since LEAN_PATH
contains both roots. That is a source of the corpus that no phase reads and
no pin covers, which is exactly what the dead-file gate exists to forbid; it
was simply looking in two places instead of everywhere. Now nothing may live
in either root but the two enumerated sets.

CLASS 9 — the instruments' own declaration surface. AxiomCheck.lean and
Inventory.lean perform the audit and are therefore not corpus, so nothing
inventoried what THEY declare. Inventory.lean now walks both: AxiomCheck by
module index, and itself as the module still being elaborated, whose
declarations are the ones the environment reports with no originating
module. That is what makes the inventory cover the instrument that produces
it rather than exempting itself.

The policy is not "declare nothing" — this file legitimately declares its
machinery. It is that an instrument may declare only inert definitions. An
axiom here would widen the trusted base without appearing in any
certificate's cone; a theorem here would be a claim no certificate covers
and no allowlist pins. A flat ban on theorems was WRONG and was measured to
be wrong: defining a function by well-founded recursion makes the elaborator
emit its own obligations, and axiomCone._proof_1 rejected this very file.
The distinction that holds is whether a theorem is a claim someone wrote or
an artefact of a definition declared alongside it — an artefact's name
extends the name of a constant declared with it.

Observed surface: 18 declarations, 16 def and 2 generated obligations, no
axiom, no standalone claim.

The drivers are byte-pinned already, so this does not pin WHICH definitions
they contain — that would add a thing to maintain without adding a thing to
catch. It adds the property byte-pinning cannot give: that no instrument
declares an axiom or a claim, whatever its bytes are.

selftest_audit.sh: 10 cases -> 14. Case 12 uses an INDENTED axiom, because
Phase 1's source grep catches an unindented one and the point is to reach
the kernel-side walk standing behind it.

TWO DEFECTS IN THE TEST HARNESS, found while adding the cases.

· The scratch tree copied verification/ only, but the button also reads
  README.md and STATEMENT-MAP.md from the repository root. check.sh
  therefore ALWAYS died in Phase 3c in the scratch tree, which made every
  `if check.sh; then <attack not caught>` guard unfirable — check.sh could
  not pass in there even with no attack at all. Only the diagnostic greps
  were doing any work. The documents are now copied, and the negative test
  below proves the guard is live: with the driver-surface check disabled,
  check.sh PASSES a tree whose inventory driver declares
  `axiom driver_cheat : False`.
· Case 9 was the last case when it was written and left its rogue gen file
  in place. Harmless then; the new cases inherited it. Cleaned up between
  the blocks rather than inside case 9, so that case still tests what it did.

Also fixed while here: Phase 3b compared the compile manifest against
Inventory.lean by grepping the WHOLE FILE for a backticked module name, so
prose counted — a doc comment naming a module broke the count, and in the
other direction a doc mention of a module missing from the array would have
satisfied the presence check and hidden the omission. It now reads the
arrays.

Both new gates negative-tested by removal. Button green, self-test green.

b575e857e3 verification: bind statements and specification bodies (P1-a); un-stale the fidelity pin
STATEMENT BINDING (Phase 3d). The coverage gate pins every constant's name,
kind and axiom cone, both directions, and none of selftest_audit.sh's nine
attacks defeat it. It is nevertheless blind to what a declaration SAYS — and
that is demonstrated here rather than argued:

  Wrapping one branch of `LTLAcc.pinAccept`'s body in `id (…)` is
  definitionally equal. Every downstream proof still compiles. The name, the
  kind, the type and the axiom cone are unchanged. The inventory gate reports
  "222 constants, environment == allowlist" — GREEN.

That edit is harmless by construction; the point is that nothing stood between
it and a genuinely vacuous redefinition of a specification. Proofs/Inventory.lean
now also emits, for every inventoried constant, its fully-elaborated TYPE, and
for every definition its fully-elaborated BODY — 266 lines over 222 constants.
Proof terms are deliberately absent: by proof irrelevance a theorem's content
is its statement. check.sh Phase 3d binds the SHA-256 and the block is
committed as AUDIT-MANIFEST.txt so a mismatch is DIFFED, not merely reported.

The existing gate is untouched, per the standing rule that the port flows FROM
this repo, not to it: INV lines are byte-identical, inventory_gate.sh is
unchanged, and all nine of its attacks still fail as before.

selftest_statements.sh replays the defeq edit as case 1, asserting BOTH that
the coverage gate passes it and that Phase 3d catches it — so if the coverage
gate ever grows to see this, the test says so instead of quietly re-labelling.
Cases 2-4 cover a hand-edited committed block, a truncated block, and a
constant inventoried without a statement.

FIDELITY PIN (unrelated, found while running the button). Phase 4 had been
failing since 2026-07-23: LIED_PIN_DIV expected 3,867 divergences between the
Lean model and the deployed consistency verifier, and observed 0. Cause is
pacta ddbb5a4, which restored the RFC 9162 2.1.4.2 Step-7 terminal `sn == 0`
condition; that one conjunct removes every divergence in the pinned
73,573-case family. KNOWN-GAPS gap 14 already recorded the closure on the day
it landed — only this constant was stale, so the button had been red for five
days with nobody running it. The pin now reads 0 with the history in a comment.
Nothing about the paper, public log entry 13, or the attested commit 172a1d0
changes; the historical divergence stays reproducible at the tagged pre-fix
commit.

KNOWN-GAPS gap 16 records what the binding does not buy: identity, not
meaning; an author who edits and re-pins in one commit is caught by review and
not by the script; and proof terms are unbound by design.

Button green end to end: ATTESTATION GREEN (Lean + fidelity).

9972ab4198 Review round 3: environment-derived audit surface, self-contained kit
Round-2 external reviews (GPT-5.6 + second Claude) converged on the
coverage gate being evadable (H1/NEW-1); GPT additionally proved the
kit's fidelity target could not run (H2) and the namespace-collision
attack that defeats any source-regex fix. This round adopts GPT's
required correction in full:

- Proofs/Inventory.lean: declaration inventory read from the compiled
  Lean environment — every constant of every corpus module, fully
  qualified, unfiltered (compiler auxiliaries and _private mangles
  pinned too), with kind and axiom cone; own cone walker cross-checked
  in-process against core collectAxioms (hard error on divergence).
- verification/inventory-allowlist.txt: all 218 constants pinned.
- inventory_gate.sh: fail-closed diff both directions (UNCLASSIFIED /
  STALE), INV-COUNT truncation guard, exactly-one-axiom invariant.
- check.sh Phase 3b rewritten around the gate + manifest⇔inventory
  drift checks + CONES⇔inventory cone cross-check (two independent
  computations must agree). EXCLUDE table gone (sha256/Bytes are
  ordinary audited entries now).
- selftest_audit.sh: 9 adversarial cases against the production gate
  (attributed/indented/private/instance, namespace collision, smuggled
  axiom, deleted decl, unmanifested Proofs/ and gen/ modules) + positive
  control — all defeated (GPT release condition 2).
- M1: recursive orphan-olean guard (caught a stray dev artifact on its
  first run), gen/ dead-file check, corpus-wide single-axiom pin.
- L1/NEW-2: acceptIncl_sound drops the redundant hm (derived from
  hacc.1); cone unchanged.
- M2/M3: STATEMENT-MAP counts 230,271/230,016; non-vacuity guard
  wording narrowed to what the guards actually certify.
- README layer table: stale L4/pin-store rows fixed (missed by both
  round-2 reviewers AND the round-2 revision — found in self-review).
- KNOWN-GAPS 12 (audit-gate lineage + residual limits), 13 (round-2 kit
  target not self-contained); gap 2 count fixed.
- RESPONSE-TO-REVIEWERS.md: round-3 disposition of every finding.

Kit round 3 additionally ships the complete stdlib-only import closure
of pacta.transparency (content-addressed vs pacta 3d81d53), the
clean-extraction fidelity transcript (exit 0, 230,271+230,016, zero
mismatches), the ATTESTATION GREEN check.sh transcript, and the
self-test transcript.

The live LTL remains untouched (12 leaves, root bcd15f9d…);
attestation stays blocked pending ePrint decision + author review +
explicit operator order.
