Lane Distinction — DM3 Workstreams

Effective: 2026-04-26 (operator pivot directive) Binding: all subsequent agents on this brief

This document captures a substantive distinction the operator has now made explicit. It supersedes any text in BRIEF.md that conflated the two lanes (the brief's Layer 3 anchors are device-side measurements, not genesis-substrate predictions — see "Resolution" below).

The two DM3 lanes

Property Geometry-direct (THIS lane) dm3_runner / Phase A (parked)
Substrate 285-vertex graph from genesis_cli 380-vertex graph measured in Phase A
Source repo Zer0pa/Zer0paMk1-Genesis-Organism-Executable-Application-27-Oct-2025 (private, accessible) unknown / unrecovered
Source status source-available; pure-geometry crates; deterministic build with sealed hashes hybrid binary; runtime-only; classified exploratory_compiled_residue
Build target aarch64-apple-darwin native (and aarch64-Linux for parity); source-rebuilt on Mac aarch64-linux-android ELF; runs only on RM10 or under Android emulation
Verification anchors canonical hashes verify.json = 97bd..., solve_h2.json = 62897b... (from VALIDATION.md inside genesis workspace) Phase A spectral fixtures (λ_max ≈ 7.999, Fiedler ≈ 0.001093, 380 verts, etc.)
Symmetry signature Z₂ mirror (95 singly + 95 doubly degenerate over 190 distinct levels) C₃ ternary (95 of 127 distinct levels at 3-fold)
Active claims substrate identification on the genesis substrate; cross-platform M1↔Intel parity; Phase 4 algebraic content readable directly from source dynamics determinism (claim τ from prior workstream's AGD-H1 confirmed 5/5 bit-exact)
Status active — "continue" flag-and-park — out of scope for this workstream

The geometry lane is what this brief is about. The dm3_runner lane is the prior workstream's territory; its source remains unfound and is a separate source-recovery effort.

Why this matters for the brief's anchors

BRIEF.md Section 1 (Layer 3) lists Phase A spectral fixtures and uses them to drive Phase 1 verification. Read literally, that section assumes the genesis source is what produced the dm3_runner binary's graph. It does not. The genesis substrate produces a 285-vertex graph; dm3_runner produces a 380-vertex graph. They are different objects with different symmetry structures (Z₂ vs C₃) and different vertex counts.

This is captured honestly in the brief's own Section 5 ("Honest gaps"):

"I have not seen the construction source. Where I describe what the construction 'must' encode, I'm reasoning from the geometric description plus the lexicon document plus the Phase A spectral data. The agent should treat my reasoning as predictions to be checked against the source, not as established facts."

The operator's pivot directive of 2026-04-26 confirms this: the predictions are not facts; the genesis substrate is its own object; the brief's Phase A "verification" was a check against the wrong target.

Resolution

  • Phase A spectral fixtures are descriptive of dm3_runner, not prescriptive for genesis.
  • For the geometry lane, Phase 1's verification gate is replaced by:
    • Genesis canonical hashes match (verify.json = 97bd..., solve_h2.json = 62897b...)
    • Genesis substrate fully characterized as the graph it actually is (285 verts, Z₂ mirror, full spectrum, etc.)
    • Cross-platform parity between M1 and Intel builds of genesis_cli (the new claim-τ for this lane)
  • For the dm3_runner lane, Phase A spectra remain the canonical anchors when source is recovered (separate workstream).

What this means for the agent's prior work

The Phase 0/1 executor (commit 9bcb92ae work) produced real artifacts that are PRESERVED under the new frame:

  • ✓ Built genesis_cli (debug, Mach-O arm64) — preserved
  • ✓ Ran --protocol --runs 1 successfully; solve_h2.json hash matched canonical 62897b... exactly — preserved
  • ⚠ verify.json hash discrepancy (e894... observed vs 97bd... documented) — diagnosed by agent as "canonicalization-fix documentation artifact, not a computation failure" — needs second look but not invalidating
  • ✓ 285-vertex adjacency extracted to phase_1_adjacency.npz — PRESERVED, this is the genesis substrate
  • ✓ Spectrum: 190 distinct levels, λ_max = 3.9989, Fiedler = 0.001071, Z₂ mirror (95 singly + 95 doubly) — PRESERVED, this is the substrate's spectral fingerprint

What is RETRACTED:

  • ✗ "1 PASS / 7 MISMATCH" verification table interpreted as "Phase A reconstruction failed" — RETRACT. The table measured the genesis substrate against dm3_runner anchors. Wrong comparison. The table is RENAMED to phase_1_genesis_substrate_characterization.tsv; the columns are repurposed to "metric / computed value / dm3_runner Phase A reference (informational)".
  • ✗ "NULL OUTCOME (BRIEF Section 6)" claim — RETRACT. NULL applies when reconstruction fails to reproduce the binary's graph; here we are not trying to reproduce dm3_runner's binary. The genesis substrate is its own object. There is no NULL; there is a substantive characterization in progress.

Receipts location

Per operator directive, all geometry-lane receipts go into:

artifacts/phase_S8_geometry_lane_M1_<TS>/

with TS = ISO-8601 UTC timestamp at lane-creation. First lane dir for this work: phase_S8_geometry_lane_M1_20260426T212413Z/.

These are the canonical-output structure; the loose artifacts/phase_0_* and artifacts/phase_1_* files from the agent's run will be migrated into this tree.

Mirror to Hugging Face dataset Zer0pa/DM3-artifacts (or operator-specified dataset) on each substantive completion, following the prior workstream's AGD-H1 pattern.
