Now archive — 2026-08-18

Aged entries rolled out of now.md verbatim (newest first). The head of now.md is the live state; this page is history.

Session 2026-08-18 05:48–06:1xZ (work, exploit; 0 GPU-h — CPU-only instrument item, H100 held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch): paired-read instrument frozen pre-data + retro-validated (probe vs disc-1000: +33 CI95 [22, 44], McNemar 37-vs-4), oracles ×7, check.py 1004 green — run_work_next stays ARMED: panel-row audit next, GO ask polled at boot + boundary (quiet).

Session 2026-08-18 05:45–05:4xZ (tick; 0 GPU-h — H100 idle by design, no live runs): quiet tick — GO ask (01:54Z) + both calibration addenda still pending at ~3h50m; read + history + inbox all empty of new signals, registry declared-reason current, queue green depth 2 (22 open) — run_work_next stays ARMED: the chained work session owns sim100-paired-read-instrument + disc1000-panel-row-audit (both CPU) and polls the GO ask at every boundary.

Session 2026-08-18 02:04–05:2xZ (work, exploit; ~2.8 GPU-h in-session — HTML report ~0.1 + sim100 baseline ~2.2 + k4l2 panel leg ~0.5, all banked-checkpoint evals): disc-1000 baseline screen closed end-to-end pre-GO — demos-holdout 5.763 / sim100 11/100 / panel 58.14 (0% win, OOD), two calibration notes recorded in the pdnorm draft, worn-row record fix + oracles, one starvation catch-and-relaunch (66→660 f/min) — run_work_next ARMED: paired-read instrument + panel-row audit (both CPU) belong to the chained session.

Session 2026-08-18 01:20–01:2xZ (tick; 0 GPU-h — H100 idle, no live runs): quiet tick, one new signal — owner 👍 on the 21:33 Amendment-1 post caught via the history check (endorsement of the amendment discipline; verdict + parity confirmation already executed under it, no reply owed); read + inbox empty, queue green depth 2 — run_work_next stays ARMED: the chained work session owns the flow-norm pre-reg draft, then the step-1000 HTML panel.

Session 2026-08-18 00:49–01:2xZ (work, exploit; +~0.1 GPU-h — two stack-parity probe evals ~1 min each on the freed H100; ledger row for the discriminator’s final accrual: ~5.8 GPU-h total, ~1.0 in-window before the 08-17 19:45Z cut, ~4.8 post-window — lands in the next window roll): stack-parity probe CONFIRMS HEALTHY on the pre-merge instrument (−1.551 vs the comparator’s +2.03, same units); saves 500+1000 banked to fontaine-checkpoints; verdict report page + parity chart live; run + upload queue items closed, flow-norm draft gate lifted, HTML-report refill queued — run_work_next ARMED: next tick chains into the flow-norm pre-reg draft.

Session 2026-08-18 00:29–00:4xZ (boundary tick; discriminator run COMPLETE at ~5.8 GPU-h vs the 12 gate): VERDICT HEALTHY — distributed path CONVICTED; eval 5.8989@1000, Δ(1000−500) −1.67, raw and Amendment-1 scale-adjusted rules agree (no instrument ambiguity); ratio-to-comparator converged to 1.12×; descent-asymmetry caveat carried with the stack-parity probe queued as confirmation; verdict posted id 1539072109685379175 — run_work_next ARMED: the chained work session owns checkpoint upload, ledger row, blog verdict post, flow-norm pre-reg draft.

Session 2026-08-18 00:07–00:1xZ (tick; GPU-h accruing — discriminator riding to the ~00:44Z boundary): final pre-verdict babysit — step 860/1000 healthy, loss 0.4414, 15.12 s/step, VRAM 62.26 vs 78, RAM 50 GB flat; no steering, no post (23:47 step-750 post current), queue green depth 2 — run_work_next stays unarmed (both CPU queue items verdict-gated); next tick owns step 1000 + Amendment 1, descent-asymmetry caveat likely. Previous update 2026-08-18 13:17–13:3xZ (real date -u at write: 13:25) — tick: quiet babysit — pdnorm healthy through step ~508/3000; one new fact: host-RAM available is 48 GiB (was ~90 at earlier polls) — investigated, flat, not a leak.

Status: grasp_sft_v2_joint_1gpu_pdnorm LIVE — babysit exit 0: liveness 5 procs, GPU 66.5 GiB device / util 91%, step 500-sample +120 over the 12:45→13:17 window (~16 s/step including the eval@500 + async save@500 pause — effective rate on plan), probe 12.91@250 → 8.24@500 unchanged. Host RAM: available 48 GiB vs ~90 GiB reported at 11:13/13:15 polls — sampled flat over 4 min, train-proc RSS stable at ~139 GiB (offload-optim states in host RAM

  • save@500 serialization high-water; /dev/shm 20/111 GiB), 8 workers ~1.5 GiB each. Verdict: stable plateau, not the rescale-dataloader leak class. Watch item: re-check free -g at the ~15:2xZ drift-read tick — a second step-drop after save@1000 would mean per-save growth → escalate before save@1500. Endpoint ETA unchanged ~23:3x–23:4xZ. Queue green depth 2 (22 open).

Steering: none — read empty, unreplied inbox empty, history shows no new reactions. No in-channel post (nothing new since the 11:14 launch post; drift read owns the next post).

Done: babysit CLI (exit 0, facts above); host-RAM investigation (shm/df + nvidia-smi compute-apps — pid 382281 is ours, no owner policy-server claim — + 4-min free/RSS sampling); queue validate green.

Next: ~15:2xZ tick owns the step-1000 drift-guard read (bar eval@1000 ≤ 8.5419, PROVISIONAL) + the RAM re-check. run_work_next stays ARMED (marker present, touched 13:16) — chained work session owns owner-pending-decisions-digest (CPU); pdnorm-endpoint-close gated on step 3000.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 10:37–13:2xZ (real date -u at write: 13:16) — work session (chained, bounded): pdnorm LAUNCHED — the ON-GO checklist executed end to end under the 10:25Z delegation: pre-reg stamped + posted, fit smoke green, grasp_sft_v2_joint_1gpu_pdnorm live on the H100 since 11:02:21Z, ridden through the step-500 boundary.

Status: grasp_sft_v2_joint_1gpu_pdnorm LIVE (unit fontaine-v2-joint-pdnorm, launched 11:02:21Z) — step 500/3000 at 13:15Z, probe 12.91@250 → 8.24@500 (disc anchor 12.51/7.57 — slightly above the demosonly curve at both points, falling healthily), loss 0.70@380, 14.9–15.1 s/step, VRAM 62.21/71 gate, util median 86–100% (no starvation), host RAM ~90 GiB available, save@500 captured async 15.6 s. Drift-guard bar set: eval@1000 ≤ 8.5419 (= 8.2419 + 0.30), read at the ~15:2xZ boundary (PROVISIONAL). Endpoint ETA ~23:3x–23:4xZ. Queue green depth 2 (22 open).

Steering: none new — polled at boot 10:37, at every babysit checkpoint (11:11, 11:45, 12:15, 12:45, 13:15): read + inbox empty throughout.

Done (this session, commits a97636c + 8d9a62d; posts 1539224047244546171 decision/pre-reg + 1539230915379859507 launch): pre-reg renamed to 2026-08-18-…-pdnorm.md, header records the GO decision under the delegation, SUMMARY’d, blog pushed pre-post (page curl 200); fit smoke 10:52Z (62.18 GiB peak, ckpt metadata q01q99_per_dataset verified); launch 11:02:21Z via systemd-run; babysit.toml entry live (vram 71 / 15 GPU-h gates, drift + sim100 anchors); first poll green; ridden through eval@250, eval@500, save@500. Queue: pdnorm-on-go-runbook closed superseded-by- execution → pdnorm-endpoint-close refill (gpu-local, gated on step 3000); owner-pending-decisions-digest re-scoped to the delegation frame (decide-and-announce sweep + short owner-owned digest).

Next: queue_cli.py next → owner-pending-decisions-digest (CPU, un-gated — workable during the training window); then pdnorm-endpoint-close at step 3000 (~23:3x–23:4xZ 08-18: sim100 pair → paired read vs 11/100, panel leg, ladder --endpoint restamp, truthfit rewear, pdnormendpoint report, verdict post, bank if load-bearing). Step-1000 drift read ~15:2xZ rides the tick babysit. run_work_next ARMED — GPU busy, CPU queue non-empty.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 10:28–10:5xZ (real date -u at write: 10:32) — tick: OWNER STEERING — GO-gating retired (“Don’t ask for my GO, you decide what to run”, 10:25Z) and a 16h summary requested + both delivered same-session; pdnorm launch decided GO by me — the chained work session executes the ON-GO checklist immediately.

Status: no live runs — H100 0%/0 MiB at boot, but the idle-by-design hold is OVER: the launch decision is now mine and taken. Queue green depth 2 (22 open). The 01:54Z GO ask closed at 10:25Z (~8h31m) — answered with delegation, not a GO.

Steering (two owner messages 10:25Z, both replied in-channel + acked, inbox empty at close): (1) “Don’t ask for my GO, you decide what to run” — standing rule, recorded in memory (no-go-asks-fontaine-decides): never gate a run on owner approval; decide + announce in-channel as a decision post, pre-reg discipline (date + post before launch) stays. (2) “Do give me a summary in plain words as well as in depth about everything that’s been going on last 16h” — delivered same-session: ack/decision post 1539220047854043237, plain-words post 1539220090682216510, in-depth timeline post 1539220187197349929.

Done: Discord read (3 new: the 10:24 bot post + the two owner messages) + history + inbox cleared (both ids acked after replies); 16h summary composed from the git log (17th 18:30Z → 10:29Z) and posted — the discriminator HEALTHY arc (12.51@250 → 5.90@1000, both Amendment-1 rules, parity probe concordant), the wear audit + honest re-wear ladder (SFT@1000 27.40 / released 27.14 / repo-midpoint null 25.15, same-wear read: no competence destroyed, none built, none there to begin with), the GO-path automation arc, ~6.7 GPU-h in the window; steering memory + MEMORY.md index line written; pdnorm launch decided GO and announced in-channel.

Next: chained work session (run_work_next ARMED, marker present) executes the ON-GO checklist NOW — check compute-apps for the owner policy-server claim first, then date + post the pdnorm pre-reg, fit smoke, launch on the H100 (bijou.train via systemd-run unit), babysit.toml registry update + first-poll util/starvation check; sim100 + panel leg + endpoint report (ladder

  • estimator-seam + paired read, all automatic) at the boundary. The queued pdnorm-on-go-runbook item is superseded-by-execution — close or convert it at the work session’s queue touch; owner-pending-decisions-digest follows (re-scope it too: the GO-ask entry is resolved).*

Previous update 2026-08-18 10:10–10:2xZ (real date -u at write: 10:25) — work session (chained, bounded): pdnorm-endpoint-report-seam-line DONE — the ON-GO endpoint report now renders the estimator-seam cross-check automatically; the whole GO-path read (ladder figure + seam line + paired read) composes with zero manual steps.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle by design (0% util, 0 MiB at boot; no_live_runs_reason current, held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). GO ask (01:54Z) still unanswered at ~8h30m; polled at boot 10:11 and at close 10:20 (read + inbox empty both times).

Steering: none — read empty at boot and close, unreplied inbox empty.

Done (this session, commit 7d8a1d3, post id 1539218376281423873): grasp_sft_joint_unseen_report.py grew --truthfit-json — the pdnormendpoint preset defaults to reports/analysis__pdnorm_endpoint_truthfit_wear.json, quiet-skip on the absent default (the json exists only once the ON-GO endpoint npz does), loud on an explicit missing flag (the ladder-embed behavior split). estimator_seam_line renders pdnorm_endpoint_truthfit_rewear.py’s ladder_read block verbatim under the ladder figure: endpoint native → truth-fit row, the seam delta, and the truth-fit ladder anchors (disc-1000 / released-optional / repo-midpoint null); foreign-json refusal on missing seam keys; the NATIVE row stays the headline (deployment-honest). Oracles +7 (render-verbatim, released-omitted, foreign refusal, under-ladder placement, seam-without-sidecar independence, preset-default path, quiet-absent + loud-missing); check.py 1045 green. Pre-reg calibration note names the automatic embed. Queue: item closed done; refill pdnorm-on-go-runbook (CPU, PRE-GO — consolidate the scattered ON-GO checklist into one git-audited copy-paste runbook).

Next: queue_cli.py next → pdnorm-on-go-runbook (CPU, PRE-GO landable), then owner-pending-decisions-digest (CPU, condition-on-silence). The pdnorm RUN stays owner-gated (ON-GO checklist: date + post the pre-reg, fit smoke, launch, re-run the ladder chart with --endpoint; ladder figure + estimator-seam line + paired read all automatic in the report build). run_work_next ARMED — GPU idle but the CPU queue is non-empty.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 10:08–10:1xZ (real date -u at write: 10:11) — tick: quiet tick — landed ~1 min after the 10:07 work close; GO-ask poll 10:08Z still unanswered at ~8h14m; nothing changed.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle by design (0% util, 0 MiB; no_live_runs_reason current, held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). GO ask (01:54Z) + all subsequent notes (wear audit, recalibration, released row, ladder figure, same-wear re-expression, report embed, truthfit crosscheck) unanswered.

Steering: none — read empty, unreplied inbox empty, history -n 5 shows only our own five posts (latest: the 10:07 work-close post on the estimator-seam instrument), no new reactions.

Done: Discord read + history + inbox; GPU-idle check; queue validate green; run_work_next confirmed ARMED (touched 10:07 at the work close). No in-channel post — nothing new since the 10:07 work-close post.

Next: chained work session owns pdnorm-endpoint-report-seam-line (CPU, PRE-GO — wire the truthfit crosscheck json into the pdnormendpoint report preset), then owner-pending-decisions-digest (CPU, condition-on-silence), polling the GO ask at boot and each boundary. On GO: ON-GO checklist (date + post the pre-reg, fit smoke, launch pdnorm, re-run the ladder chart with --endpoint; report embed + truthfit crosscheck automatic).*

Previous update 2026-08-18 09:41–10:1xZ (real date -u at write: 10:06) — work session (chained, bounded): pdnorm-endpoint-truthfit-wear-crosscheck DONE — the estimator seam between the ON-GO endpoint row and the ladder anchors now has a dry-landed instrument; the last wear caveat on the GO path closes automatically on GO.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle by design (0% util, 0 MiB at boot; no_live_runs_reason current, held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). GO ask (01:54Z) still unanswered at ~8h11m; polled at boot 09:41 and at close 10:05 (read + inbox empty both times).

Steering: none — read empty at boot and close, unreplied inbox empty.

Done (this session, commit 6941cfa): new sibling pdnorm_endpoint_truthfit_rewear.py — inverts the ON-GO endpoint npz per repo through each panel repo’s NATIVE recorded training-table row (its meta/stats.json q01/q99, the row StatsAttachedDataset attaches at eval) and re-expresses through the panel-truth-fit rows the 27.40/27.14/25.15 anchors wear, recording the native-vs-truth-fit estimator delta alongside the ladder read. Git audit corrected the queue wording: the checkpoint’s per_dataset_stats holds only the 3 TRAINING repos and is inert on the panel (bijou/data.py:983). Per-repo inversion identity enforced repo-by-repo (swapped-rows refusal), degenerate-span joints pinned to midpoint with an at-the-constant bound (5 real panel (repo,joint) pairs will exercise it), scheme + contract-path + anchor + midpoint-null-identity guards; the NATIVE row stays the deployment-honest headline. Oracles +7; check.py 1037 green; all 838 panel repos’ native rows load-verified; CLI smoke-refused correctly on the global-table disc-1000 leg. Pre-reg calibration note names the instrument. Queue: item closed done; refill pdnorm-endpoint-report-seam-line (CPU, PRE-GO — wire the crosscheck json into the pdnormendpoint report preset, same automation pattern as the ladder embed).

Next: queue_cli.py next → pdnorm-endpoint-report-seam-line (CPU, PRE-GO landable), then owner-pending-decisions-digest (CPU, condition-on-silence). The pdnorm RUN stays owner-gated (ON-GO checklist: date + post the pre-reg, fit smoke, launch, re-run the ladder chart with --endpoint; report embed automatic; truthfit crosscheck now on the checklist via the calibration note). run_work_next ARMED — GPU idle but the CPU queue is non-empty.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 09:39–09:4xZ (real date -u at write: 09:40) — tick: quiet tick — landed ~1 min after the 09:37 work close; GO-ask poll 09:39Z still unanswered at ~7h45m; nothing changed.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle by design (0% util, 0 MiB; no_live_runs_reason current, declared 08:2xZ, held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). GO ask (01:54Z) + all subsequent notes (wear audit, recalibration, released row, ladder figure, same-wear re-expression, report embed) unanswered.

Steering: none — read empty, unreplied inbox empty, history -n 5 shows only our own five posts (latest: the 09:16 same-wear re-expression post with the updated ladder figure), no new reactions.

Done: Discord read + history + inbox; GPU-idle check; registry reason verified current; queue validate green; run_work_next confirmed ARMED (touched 09:38 at the work close). No in-channel post — nothing new since the 09:16 re-expression post.

Next: chained work session owns pdnorm-endpoint-truthfit-wear-crosscheck (CPU, ON-GO rider — the per-repo inversion extension can land dry PRE-GO), then owner-pending-decisions-digest (CPU, condition-on-silence), polling the GO ask at boot and each boundary. On GO: ON-GO checklist (date + post the pre-reg, fit smoke, launch pdnorm, re-run the ladder chart with --endpoint; report embed now automatic).*

Previous update 2026-08-18 09:21–09:4xZ (real date -u at write: 09:38) — work session (chained, bounded): endpoint-report-ladder-embed DONE — the ON-GO endpoint report now embeds the stamped anchor-ladder figure automatically; one manual composition step deleted from the GO path.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle by design (0% util, 0 MiB at boot; no_live_runs_reason current, held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). GO ask (01:54Z) still unanswered at ~7h43m; polled at boot 09:21 and at close 09:37 (read + inbox empty both times).

Steering: none — read empty at boot and close, unreplied inbox empty.

Done (this session, commit 353f6db): grasp_sft_joint_unseen_report.py grew --ladder-b64 + ladder_section() — embeds the pdnorm_panel_ladder_chart.py b64 sidecar as a “Panel anchor ladder” figure directly below the meta line’s textual ladder; the pdnormendpoint preset defaults to the chart script’s sidecar path reports/pdnorm_panel_ladder.b64, so on GO the endpoint session just re-runs the chart with --endpoint <row> and builds the report — zero manual embed. Behavior split: explicit flag is loud on a missing file, preset default quiet-skips (reports/ is gitignored, sidecar regenerable); payload asserted base64-PNG. Real 08-18 sidecar smoke-rendered through the section. Oracles +6 in tests/test_grasp_sft_joint_unseen_report.py; check.py 1030 green. Pre-reg chart note updated (no manual figure step on GO). Queue: item closed done; refill owner-pending-decisions-digest (CPU, condition-on-silence — ~20 of 22 open items pend an owner call scattered across days of history; one digest page + pointer post answers “what do you need from me” in a single read, posted only if the owner is still silent then).

Next: queue_cli.py next → pdnorm-endpoint-truthfit-wear-crosscheck (CPU, ON-GO rider — the per-repo inversion extension can land dry PRE-GO), then owner-pending-decisions-digest (CPU, condition-on-silence). The pdnorm RUN stays owner-gated (ON-GO checklist unchanged: date + post the pre-reg, fit smoke, launch, re-run the ladder chart with --endpoint; the report embed step is now automatic). run_work_next ARMED — GPU idle but the CPU queue is non-empty.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 09:18–09:2xZ (real date -u at write: 09:19) — tick: quiet tick — landed ~2 min after the 09:16 work close; GO-ask poll 09:18Z still unanswered at ~7h24m; nothing changed.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle by design (0% util, 0 MiB; no_live_runs_reason current, declared 08:2xZ, held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). GO ask (01:54Z) + all subsequent notes (wear audit, paired read, recalibration, endpoint preset, released row, ladder figure, same-wear re-expression) unanswered.

Steering: none — read empty, unreplied inbox empty, history -n 5 shows only our own five posts (latest: the 09:16 same-wear re-expression post with the updated ladder figure), no new reactions.

Done: Discord read + history + inbox; GPU-idle check; registry reason verified current; queue validate green; run_work_next confirmed ARMED (touched 09:17 at the work close). No in-channel post — nothing new since the 09:16 re-expression post.

Next: chained work session owns endpoint-report-ladder-embed (CPU, wire the b64 sidecar into the pdnormendpoint preset), then pdnorm-endpoint-truthfit-wear-crosscheck (CPU, instrument can land dry PRE-GO), polling the GO ask at boot and each boundary. On GO: ON-GO checklist (date + post the pre-reg, fit smoke, launch pdnorm, re-run the ladder chart with --endpoint).*

Previous update 2026-08-18 09:01–09:2xZ (real date -u at write: 09:16) — work session (chained, bounded): released-row-honest-wear-reexpression DONE — the anchor ladder is wear-consistent end to end; same-wear read: SFT ended within noise of where it started, and both rows sit slightly worse than the null.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle by design (0% util, 0 MiB at boot; no_live_runs_reason current, held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). GO ask (01:54Z) still unanswered at ~7h20m; polled at boot 09:01 and at close (read + inbox empty both times).

Steering: none — read empty at boot and close, unreplied inbox empty.

Done (this session, commit ca083cf): fontaine/scripts/released_row_rewear.py — sibling of the wear audit; re-expresses the released checkpoint’s banked panel predictions through the SAME honest per-repo rows the disc-1000 27.40 reference wears (output-side only, no model re-run). Integrity: anchors reproduced (25.8924/8.3678), inversion round-trip worst 1.5e-05°, midpoint-null identity anchor PASSED (panels element-identical → honest rows byte-identical, null 25.154476 both sides). Same-wear read: released honest-wear 27.14 vs SFT@1000 27.40 (Δ +0.26) — wear held fixed, SFT neither destroyed nor built community competence, and both rows are slightly WORSE than the 25.15 repo-midpoint null; per-joint shoulder_lift 68.9→66.1 / elbow_flex 43.1→36.2, same two dominant motors. Landed: analysis json on fontaine-reports (curl 200), reports.md re-expression bullet (caveat marked dissolved), pre-reg calibration ladder rewritten (released rung = same-wear 27.14, own-table 25.89 in the note), ladder chart + oracle updated and PNG/b64 re-rendered, oracles tests/test_released_row_rewear.py ×5; check.py 1024 green. In-channel post 1539201268197756948 (with the updated figure). Queue: item closed done; refill pdnorm-endpoint-truthfit-wear-crosscheck (CPU, ON-GO rider — the truth-fit-vs-native-table estimator seam is the one wear caveat left).

Next: queue_cli.py next → endpoint-report-ladder-embed (CPU, wire the b64 sidecar into the pdnormendpoint report preset), then pdnorm-endpoint-truthfit-wear-crosscheck (CPU, instrument can land dry PRE-GO). The pdnorm RUN stays owner-gated (ON-GO checklist unchanged: date + post the pre-reg, fit smoke, launch, re-run the ladder chart with --endpoint — rungs now same-wear). run_work_next ARMED — GPU idle but the CPU queue is non-empty.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 08:55–09:0xZ (real date -u at write: 08:57) — tick: quiet tick — GO-ask poll at 08:56Z, still unanswered at ~7h02m; nothing changed since the 08:54 work close.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle by design (0% util, 0 MiB; no_live_runs_reason current, declared 08:2xZ, held for the owner-gated pdnorm launch). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). GO ask (01:54Z) + all subsequent notes (wear audit, paired read, recalibration, endpoint preset, released row, ladder figure) unanswered.

Steering: none — read empty, unreplied inbox empty, history -n 5 shows only our own five posts (latest: the 08:54 ladder-figure post with attachment), no new reactions.

Done: Discord read + history + inbox; GPU-idle check; registry reason verified current; queue validate green; run_work_next confirmed ARMED (touched 08:54 at the work close). No in-channel post — nothing new since the 08:54 ladder-figure post.

Next: chained work session owns released-row-honest-wear-reexpression (CPU, feeds a same-wear rung into the ladder), then endpoint-report-ladder-embed (CPU), polling the GO ask at boot and each boundary.

Done (this session): fontaine/scripts/pdnorm_panel_ladder_chart.py — house dark-scheme horizontal-rung figure of the pre-reg’s wear-corrected ladder (raw 58.14 / re-worn 27.40 / released 25.89 / midpoint null 25.15 / clamp floor 14.40 / state-copy 8.37), the pending pdnorm-endpoint slot rendered as a dashed full-width outline (deliberately not a bar), --endpoint <row> stamps it magenta on GO. Queue-vs-git drift resolved per the audit rule: the released row (measured 25.89 last session) renders as a real rung, not a FILL slot. Outputs: PNG img/pdnorm/panel_ladder.png + b64 sidecar reports/pdnorm_panel_ladder.b64; figure embedded in the pre-reg draft; oracle tests/test_pdnorm_panel_ladder_chart.py (rungs + labels + placeholder + PNG/b64 roundtrip); check.py 1020 green.

Findings: wear fact — normalization: "q01q99" + per_dataset_flow_norm: false ⇒ every panel item wore the recomputed demos-only global table (per-dataset rows never consulted; “missing community rows” never arises). Decomposition — 85.8% of core truth elements outside the worn box but the box FLOOR is only 14.40 of the 58.14 and predictions are NOT edge-saturated: the wear hurts via affine re-expression, not the clamp. Re-wearing the same normalized predictions through honest per-repo rows (838) halves the row to 27.40 — but that is WORSE than a constant repo-box-midpoint null (25.15), and raw predictions sit 22.6 from the constant demos action mean while truth sits 58.2 away: output-wear-corrected, the checkpoint carries no usable signal on community data.

Previous update 2026-08-18 02:04–05:2xZ (real date -u at write: 05:15) — work session (chained): all THREE disc-1000 baseline legs executed and banked pre-GO — HTML panel (5.763 on demos holdout), sim100 (11/100, inside the pdnorm draft’s own ambiguous band), and the k4l2 panel leg (58.14 vs state-copy 8.37, 0% win — catastrophically OOD on community data). Two calibration notes recorded in the draft pre-launch, owner flagged twice with the GO ask still open.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle again at close; the pdnorm run stays staged and owner-gated (GO ask pending since 01:54Z, now with two pre-launch addenda in-channel). The k4l2 panel leg completed IN-session (04:57Z, ~0.5 GPU-h, rc 0) after a starvation catch-and-relaunch: attempt 1 (batch 12/workers 8) read 66 f/min / 38–57% util / projected 5.7 GPU-h vs the 3 gate and was killed 4.7 min in per the first-poll rule; r2 (batch 32/workers 20) ran 96% util, ~660 f/min. GO ask polled every 2–5 min throughout (tight-poll rule), quiet at every poll.

Steering: none — read empty at every poll (~50 polls 02:04 → 04:2xZ), unreplied inbox empty. The GO ask remains the standing owner-pending item; the 04:3xZ result post adds a pre-launch calibration flag to it (see Done) and offers a band re-freeze as an owner option.

Done (commits 369d90d, bba4a45, this close): (1) disc-step1000-html-report — current-stack eval on the probe-matched pins: chunk MAE 5.763 vs state-copy 7.671 (paired −1.95), wrist_roll 12.31 worst motor; reproduces the old-stack parity 5.7626 to 3 decimals (in-train 5.8989 = the known ×1.024 probe-vs-eval shift). HTML+JSON on fontaine-reports, reports.md section. (2) disc-step1000-sim100-baseline ridden end-to-end (~2.2/3 GPU-h, rc 0, 0 strikes): 11/100 grasps, mean progress 2.04 cm, 64/100 moved, 7/11 success seeds shared with the probe’s 44 — top edge of the broken class’s CI (~2–11), far below the probe band: healthy training + honest stats + demos-only corpus does NOT restore probe-level grasping. Report + clips + json on fontaine-reports; pre-reg draft’s baseline-arms section updated pre-launch with the measured cell + calibration note (the ≥20 exoneration bar = ~2× the demosonly control; paired per-seed read added as a recorded non-gating read). Result post in-channel (id 1539128272238022686). (3) Worn-row record fix: both sim drivers’ out-json now records the row actually WORN (worn_stats_key, oracle ×5) — the default-path record used to claim the rig key even when the lookup fell back to the merged table (this leg’s json carries the old mislabel, noted in reports.md). (4) disc1000 preset + low-success tolerance in grasp_sft_joint_unseen_report.py (smoke-tested on synthetic 4- and 0-success jsons before the real data). (5) k4l2 panel leg run to completion (04:57Z, ~0.5 GPU-h; protocol pinned in eval_disc1000_k4l2_panel.sh — the pdnorm endpoint leg must copy it): chunk MAE 58.14 vs state-copy 8.37, 0% win — the demosonly checkpoint is catastrophically OOD on community data (worst motors shoulder_lift 104 / elbow_flex 99 / wrist_roll 71) while beating state-copy on its own demos holdout. Mechanism deliberately NOT adjudicated pre-launch (forgetting vs demos-table window at serving — audit item queued); calibration note #2 in the draft: the +0.05 paired panel guard is near-vacuous at this baseline (kept frozen; endpoint comparison vs state-copy + released row recorded alongside). HTML+json on fontaine-reports, npz pairing substrate local; second addendum in-channel (id 1539138967352512622). (6) Queue: all three disc-1000 items closed done; refills sim100-paired-read-instrument + disc1000-panel-row-audit (both CPU, both want to land before the pdnorm endpoint reads); validate green depth 2 (22 open). Babysit registry: disc train + sim100 + panel entries all pruned (no live runs).

Next: queue_cli.py next → sim100-paired-read-instrument then disc1000-panel-row-audit (both CPU, un-gated). The pdnorm RUN stays owner-gated (GO ask + two calibration flags pending; ON-GO checklist unchanged). run_work_next ARMED — GPU idle but the CPU-side queue is non-empty.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 02:01–02:0xZ (real date -u at write: 02:04) — tick: quiet tick — GO ask still pending (~10 min old), no new signals; run_work_next stays ARMED, work session chains into disc-step1000-html-report + owns the GO poll.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle (0% util, 0 MiB; owner policy-server not up at check). Queue green depth 2 (22 open). The pdnorm run stays staged and owner-gated (GO ask pending since 01:54Z, post id 1539090183914397727).

Steering: none — read empty (cursor already past our GO post), unreplied inbox empty, history -n 5 shows only our own five posts with no new reactions. The GO ask remains the standing owner-pending item; per the tight-poll rule the chained work session polls at boot (this tick ends straight into it) and at every work boundary.

Done: Discord read + history + inbox checks; GPU-idle check; queue validate green; run_work_next confirmed ARMED (armed 02:01 by the previous close — left in place). No in-channel post (the 01:54 GO ask is current; nothing new to report).

Next: chained work session (4-h budget) owns disc-step1000-html-report (small GPU, un-gated) then disc-step1000-sim100-baseline (~2 GPU-h, un-gated), polling the GO ask at each boundary. On GO: execute the ON-GO checklist (date + post the pre-reg, fit smoke, launch pdnorm).*

Previous update 2026-08-18 01:23–02:0xZ (real date -u at write: 02:00) — work session (chained): per-dataset-flow-norm pre-reg DRAFT cut — arm decided (mixed-v2), launcher staged + full-parse green, sim-serving worn-row instrument landed with oracles; GO ask in-channel.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle (0% util; owner policy-server not up at check). The pdnorm run is fully staged and owner-gated (GO ask pending since 01:54Z, post id 1539090183914397727).

Steering: none — boot read + unreplied inbox empty; a post-ask poll at 01:59Z surfaced only our own GO post. The GO ask is now the standing owner-pending item; tick cadence owns the poll.

Done (commit ba89c60): (1) Pre-reg DRAFT [posts/2026-08-xx-prereg-grasp-sft-v2-joint-pdnorm.md] (dated + SUMMARY’d at the GO posting, disc convention). Arm decision recorded: mixed-v2, not demosonly — with one train dataset --recompute-stats pools over exactly that dataset, so the per-item row IS the merged table and the flag is a numerical no-op; the mechanism (and the isolation post’s clean fourth cell) exists only on the mix. ONE recipe delta vs the mixed-v2 box recipe, re-platformed through the discriminator’s proven 1-GPU form (eff-96 unchanged ⇒ no OOM-ladder preflight; seed 0; 3000 steps). Frozen grid: sim100 flow @3000 on 100 unseen seeds — ≥20/100 mix exonerated / ≤10 mix prime suspect / 11–19 owner; drift guard Δ(1000−500) ≤ +0.30 (disc instrument, same stack); k4l2 panel paired vs disc-1000 (+0.05 CI guard; wrist_flex/wrist_roll the predicted movers); GPU-h gate 21. (2) Launcher staged launch_local_grasp_sft_v2_joint_1gpu_pdnorm_h100.sh, full-parse green vs the merged CLI (family-inferred molmoact2_joint, per_dataset_flow_norm=True). (3) Instrument prep landed: the sim drivers hardcoded the RIG stats row — under the per-dataset scheme a mixed checkpoint would re-crush wrist_roll at sim serving (the exact 288%-overflow class the flag fixes at training); both drivers gain --stats-repo-id (resolve_worn_stats: loud refusal on a miss, default bit-unchanged; oracle tests/test_worn_stats_row.py ×4). check.py 996 green. (4) Queue: draft item closed done; run item staged blocked/owner-gated with the ON-GO checklist; disc-step1000-sim100-baseline refill queued (un-gated — fills the demosonly-v2 grasp cell of the isolation grid either way); validate green depth 2 (22 open). (5) GO ask posted in-channel (doubles as the result post).

Next: queue_cli.py next → disc-step1000-html-report (small GPU, un-gated), then disc-step1000-sim100-baseline (~2 GPU-h, un-gated). The pdnorm RUN pends the owner GO. run_work_next ARMED — GPU idle + un-gated queue non-empty; the next tick chains into the HTML report and polls the GO ask.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 01:20–01:2xZ (real date -u at write: 01:22) — tick: quiet tick with one new signal — owner 👍 on the 21:33 Amendment-1 post, first surfaced this tick; run_work_next stays ARMED, work session chains into the flow-norm pre-reg draft.

Status: no live runs — H100 idle (0% util, 0 MiB; owner policy-server not up at check). Queue green depth 2 (21 open); head item prereg-draft-per-dataset-flow-norm-rerun (CPU, gate lifted) belongs to the chained work session, not this 30-min tick.

Steering: NEW — 👍×1 on our 21:33 step-250/Amendment-1 post (id 1539024477260882000), caught via history -n 5; no tick since 21:33 had recorded a reaction there, so it’s new since the 00:49 close. Read: owner endorsement of the amendment discipline (compute-both-rules, AMBIGUOUS-BY-INSTRUMENT branch, stack-parity disambiguator) — the verdict was executed under exactly that structure and the parity probe confirmed HEALTHY, so the endorsement is retroactively satisfied; recorded per the reaction-as-steering rule, no reply owed (agreement; verdict + parity result posts already stand). Otherwise quiet: read empty (cursor already past our 00:58 parity post), unreplied inbox empty.

Done: Discord read + history + inbox checks; queue validate green; GPU-idle check; run_work_next confirmed ARMED (armed 01:18 by the work-session close — this tick leaves it in place). No in-channel post (nothing new to report; the 00:58 parity post is current).

Next: chained work session (4-h budget) owns prereg-draft-per-dataset-flow-norm-rerun (baseline arm = the discriminator run itself; wrist_roll parity corroboration folded in), then disc-step1000-html-report (small GPU, un-gated). Owner-pending list unchanged.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 00:49–01:2xZ (real date -u at write: 01:18) — work session (chained): discriminator post-processing CLOSED — stack-parity probe CONFIRMS the HEALTHY verdict on the pre-merge instrument; checkpoints banked; verdict report page live.

Status: no live runs — the H100 is idle (no compute apps; owner policy-server not up at check). Next GPU work is owner-gated (the flow-norm rerun awaits its draft + GO) except the queued step-1000 HTML-panel item (small, un-gated).

Steering: none — boot read surfaced only our own 00:43 verdict post (cursor advance), unreplied inbox empty.

Done (commit 1b07772): (1) Stack-parity probe run (both saves, pre-registered pins, ~1 min each on the freed H100): old-stack units 7.3137@500 → 5.7626@1000, Δ(1000−500) = −1.551 vs healthy ≤ +0.30 / drift_min +1.0158 / the drifting comparator’s actual +2.03 on the same instrument — HEALTHY confirms in comparator-era units; the units-artifact half of the descent-asymmetry caveat is retired (residual not-yet-plateaued footnote carried). Refinement: same-checkpoint cross-stack ratios ×1.034 @500 / ×1.024 @1000 — the family-norm merge moved the probe ~2–3%; Amendment 1’s s=3.613 was model-level difference at 250, not units (rules agreed, verdict unchanged). wrist_roll is the worst motor under the old table (16.87/12.31 vs state-copy 3.99) — corroborates the 288% occupancy overflow, feeds the flow-norm draft. (2) Checkpoints banked: saves 500+1000 weights-only + both jsonls → fontaine-checkpoints/grasp_sft_v2_demosonly_1gpu_disc (upload exit 0; step-1000 = first non-drifting v2-corpus checkpoint). (3) Verdict report page posts/2026-08-18-sft-drift-discriminator-verdict.md with the new parity chart (stack_parity_chart.py, eval-report dark scheme); posts-index drift fixed (3 missing 08-17 entries). (4) Queue: run item + upload item closed done with full verdict annotations; flow-norm draft gate lifted; disc-step1000-html-report queued (standing-rule refill); validate green depth 2. (5) Ledger row: final run accrual recorded in the footer. In-channel post id 1539076047948087396.

Next: queue_cli.py next → prereg-draft-per-dataset-flow-norm-rerun (CPU, gate lifted — baseline arm = the discriminator run itself); then disc-step1000-html-report (small GPU, un-gated). run_work_next ARMED — CPU queue non-empty and the GPU is idle; the next tick chains straight into the draft. Owner-pending list unchanged.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 00:29–00:4xZ (real date -u at write: 00:44) — boundary tick: VERDICT — HEALTHY, distributed path CONVICTED; both Amendment-1 rules agree, no instrument ambiguity; descent-asymmetry caveat carried.

Status: grasp_sft_v2_demosonly_1gpu_disc attempt 2 COMPLETE — 1000/1000, loss 0.4186, VRAM 62.26 GiB vs the 78 gate, ~5.8 GPU-h vs the 12 gate; save-1000 mid-write at read time (optimizer.pt down, weights dir pending). Step-1000 probe: eval 5.8989 / train 5.5242 → Δeval(1000−500) = −1.67 (Δtrain −1.70); trajectory 12.51 → 7.57 → 6.59 → 5.90, descending through the whole verdict window.

Steering: none — read empty, unreplied inbox empty, history -n 5 only our posts.

Done: held the session through the boundary (§6) — babysit exit 0 at step 950, sleep-polled to the 00:42Z probe, then ran the frozen instrument (sft_drift_saga_charts.py --discriminator): HEALTHY under the raw rule (−1.67 ≤ +0.30) AND Amendment 1’s scale-adjusted rule (−1.67 ≤ +1.084) — the rules agree ⇒ torchrun + zero1 + chunk-grad-allreduce CONVICTED (the pre-registered HEALTHY meaning: that stack is the delta separating every drifting 8× run from every healthy one; same recipe on 1 GPU stayed healthy). Ratio-to-comparator converged 3.61× @250 → 2.34× @500 → 1.56× @750 → 1.12× @1000 (5.90 vs their 5.27 — theirs rising since 500, ours still falling). Descent-asymmetry caveat carried per the 22:34 pre-record (bounds satisfied trivially by a still-descending curve; stack-parity probe of saves 500/1000 is the queued cheap confirmation). Verdict posted in-channel (id 1539072109685379175); overlay + JSON written (disc_overlay.png, analysis__sft_drift_discriminator.json). Queue validate green. run_work_next ARMED.

Next: chained work session owns post-processing — checkpoint upload (upload_grasp_sft_v2_disc_checkpoints.py, prepped; needs save-1000 complete), stack-parity-probe decision, utilization ledger row (~5.8 GPU-h final), blog verdict post/report, then the flow-norm pre-reg draft (both queue items now verdict-unlocked). Owner-pending list unchanged.*

Previous update 2026-08-18 00:07–00:1xZ (real date -u at write: 00:08) — tick: final pre-verdict babysit — step 860/1000 healthy, ~0.6 h to step 1000; this tick ends before the boundary, the next tick owns the verdict.

Status: 1 live run — grasp_sft_v2_demosonly_1gpu_disc attempt 2 at step 860/1000, loss 0.4414 (−0.031 since 780), 15.12 s/step (window rate 3.8 steps/min, in-band), VRAM 62.26 GiB vs the 78 gate, host RAM 50 GB available — flat at the root-caused plateau. At this pace step 1000 lands ~00:44Z, after this tick’s 00:37Z hard kill: the boundary read stays with the next tick, exactly as the last three ticks planned.

Steering: none — read surfaced only our own 23:47 post (cursor advance), unreplied inbox empty, history -n 5 shows only our posts.

Done: babysit exit 0 (liveness 5 procs, rate/VRAM/RAM in-band); queue validate green depth 2 (22 open). No in-channel post — the 23:47 step-750 post is the pre-endpoint record and nothing changed since. run_work_next stays NOT armed — unchanged: both queued CPU items are verdict-gated; the boundary tick can arm it itself if Amendment 1 + post-processing outgrow its 30 min.

Next: boundary tick (~00:4x–01:0xZ, likely the ~00:49 fire) owns step 1000 — sft_drift_saga_charts.py --discriminator on the fresh jsonl, then Amendment 1 (raw AND scale-adjusted rules; disagree ⇒ AMBIGUOUS-BY-INSTRUMENT + stack_parity_probe.sh run mode); descent-asymmetry caveat LIKELY (750 still falling ⇒ Δ(1000−500) plausibly negative ⇒ HEALTHY bounds satisfied trivially — carry the caveat + stack-parity probe as confirmation). Post-verdict: checkpoint upload (upload_grasp_sft_v2_disc_checkpoints.py, prepped) then the flow-norm pre-reg draft. Owner-pending list unchanged.*
