TAS-150: Pre-closeout universality audit and claim-boundary report #243

@AtlantisPleb

Description

@AtlantisPleb

Summary

Public Tassadar needs pre-closeout universality audit and claim-boundary report so the executor lane can widen honestly without collapsing profile boundaries, portability, or refusal posture.

Roadmap position

  • Tranche: Tranche L | Semantic-window evolution and universality-governance pre-closeout
  • Strategic phase: Phase 9/10 governance bridge
  • Tranche goal: Govern semantic drift without losing honesty before the terminal contract.
  • Why this tranche exists: This tranche exists so widening can continue without silent semantic or claim drift.
  • Dependency context: Sequences after TAS-149 inside Tranche L and still depends on the landed baseline through TAS-102.

Problem

Even if the full horizon lands, the repo still needs one final pre-closeout statement of exactly what is broad, what is frozen-window closed, and what is still missing before the hard Turing-completeness contract can be claimed.

Hypothesis

A pre-closeout audit that cites only committed profile ladders, portability envelopes, effect policies, challenge receipts, and acceptance gates will keep the terminal Turing-completeness phase from inheriting fuzzy universality language.

Public source anchors

  • docs/ROADMAP_TASSADAR.md
  • docs/ARCHITECTURE.md

Target surfaces

  • docs/audits/
  • psionic-research
  • psionic-eval
  • psionic-provider

Claim class

  • disclosure-safe claim closure / promotion discipline

Initial scope

  • implement the smallest honest subsystem changes across docs/audits/, psionic-research, psionic-eval, psionic-provider that close the named gap
  • add deterministic fixtures, receipts, reports, or capability rows that make the new posture machine-legible
  • update public docs and capability language only where the new bounded surface is actually supported
  • keep unsupported shapes on explicit typed refusal paths rather than widening implicitly

Validation and benchmark expectations

  • final pre-closeout checker
  • source-to-claim provenance review
  • exact statement of what remains out of scope before the terminal contract
  • and green publication only when every prerequisite claim gate is satisfied
  • add negative coverage for unsupported or out-of-profile behavior
  • update any machine-readable receipt, report, capability row, or acceptance artifact touched by this lane

Claim-discipline requirements

  • keep the capability bounded to named profiles or declared semantic windows
  • do not let this issue imply arbitrary Wasm, broad internal compute, or broader served posture unless an explicit promotion gate is part of the task
  • preserve explicit refusal reasons for unsupported module shapes, effects, portability envelopes, or semantic families
  • treat post-core proposal families, concurrency, and accelerator semantics as separate claim classes rather than inherited core-Wasm support

Done when

  • the named surfaces land with deterministic tests, fixtures, or reports that exercise the new bounded capability
  • public docs reflect the new capability, limit, or refusal posture in bounded language
  • the claim remains benchmarked or promoted only at the level explicitly supported by the landed evidence

Status

  • seeded
