v1.0-paper — Frozen Benchmark Results (Paper Reference)
This tag freezes the exact Fair Code benchmark results cited in the research paper currently in peer review. It exists so the paper's tables and the repository never drift apart.
🔒 Paper freeze — active
The benchmark results are frozen at this point and must not change until the paper is published. Any drift would make the paper's tables disagree with the repo. Full policy: CLAUDE.md.

No new audits during the freeze
The paper covers exactly seven domains, so new audits will not be merged into main until the paper is published. Contributions are still welcome — audits are parked on a branch or held with a post-paper label and merged after publication. This is a timing hold, not a rejection. Explainers, docs, and website content are unaffected.
When the freeze lifts
On publication: the benchmark may be re-run, parked audits merge, v3.0.0 is cut, and the paper's citation + DOI are added to README.md and CITATION.cff. paper/results-frozen/ stays permanently untouched as the historical record.
