refactor(decision): move snapshot SQLite storage into internal/state/decisionstore

The decision tool package no longer opens SQLite itself; it maps the new leaf package's typed errors to its domain codes. Schema, retention, capacity and version/parent semantics are unchanged. Also restores the Registry comment in control.Options to its original wording.
fix(desktop): route /decision through the dev server proxy

-## Pull request policy
-
-**Related changes.** If you have several related changes of one pattern, a
-tracking issue plus one pull request is easiest to review.
-
-**Issue first for features.** A change that adds behaviour rather than fixing a
-defect should link an issue the maintainers have agreed to before the work
-starts. A fix for a reproducible defect may open directly, with the failing test
-in the PR. Documentation-only and test-only PRs are reviewed at lower priority.
-
-**Review tiers.**
-
- Changes under the `sensitive:` paths declared in `REASONIX.md` get a full
-  review plus a security review, regardless of author.
- Every PR carries the four sections of the PR template: Cause, Blast radius,
-  Neighbouring behaviours tested, Why this layer.
- The new test must fail without the change.
- A UI change (`desktop/frontend-next/src` or the website pages) fills the
-  template's UI section: screenshots before and after, light and dark, wide
-  and phone width.
- The same section carries the line "Entries moved, hidden or removed".
- Hiding or removing a visible control needs a linked issue and a release-notes
-  line naming it, and updates `docs/STUDIO_PARITY.md` for a 1.x feature.
- Review holds these; no check reads them.
-
-**Transparency.** The PR template has an optional checkbox for disclosing AI
-assistance. It is for transparency only and does not change how a change is
-reviewed.

-## What it is
-
-Reasonix is an open-source AI coding assistant. The program runs on your computer; the AI model is a service you configure, which receives what it reads. You describe a task in plain language; it reads code, edits files and runs commands and tests inside the project folder you choose, and shows you each step.
-
-You pick the model: a DeepSeek preset is built in, any OpenAI-compatible service is one config entry, and you pay the model provider directly.
-
-## What you get
-
- **Read, edit, run.** It reads code, edits files and runs tests and commands, all inside your project folder.
- **Permission levels.** Have it ask every time, or let everyday actions run on their own; your forbid rules always hold. To see the approach first, use plan mode: it starts work only once you approve.
- **Rewind.** A file is saved before it changes, so you can rewind by conversation turn without touching your git history. Only files its edit tools changed are covered, not what a shell command did.
-
-## 30-second start
-
-Download, add a model key, open a project. New here? Start with the Studio desktop app.
-
-1. Download and install the desktop app, Reasonix Studio, from the [releases page](https://github.com/esengine/DeepSeek-Reasonix/releases?q=studio-v&expanded=true).
-2. Open it and enter your model provider and key when asked.
-3. Open your project folder and write what you want, for example "add retry on failure to the http client".
-4. At the level you chose, it stops and asks before anything that needs your say-so. Allow it to continue, or refuse.
-
-Prefer a terminal? Download the `reasonix` command-line tool, run `reasonix setup` to pick a model, then run `reasonix`. See [Install](#install) and [Quick start](#quick-start).
-
-## Four ways to use it
-
- **Desktop app (Studio).** A graphical app; the best place to start.
- **Terminal.** A full-screen text interface; `reasonix run "task"` also works in scripts.
- **Browser.** `reasonix web` opens a web interface on your own machine.
- **Editor.** Install the extension in VS Code; other editors that support ACP (Agent Client Protocol, a common way for an editor to connect to an AI assistant) can connect to `reasonix acp`.
-
-All four are the same program underneath. What follows is for advanced users and contributors.

-## 它是什么
-
-Reasonix 是一个开源的 AI 编程助手。程序跑在你的电脑上；AI 模型是你自己配置的服务，它读到的内容会发给这个服务。你用大白话描述任务，它在你选的项目文件夹里读代码、改文件、跑命令和测试，每一步都摆给你看。
-
-模型你自己选：内置 DeepSeek 预设，其他兼容 OpenAI 接口的服务填一条配置就行，费用直接付给模型服务商。
-
-## 你能得到什么
-
- **读、改、跑**：读你的项目、改文件、跑测试和命令，都在你选的项目文件夹里。
- **权限分档**：每次都问你，或让日常操作自动放行；你设的禁止规则始终有效。想先看方案，就开计划模式，批准后它才动手。
- **可回退**：改文件前先存快照，按对话轮次回退，不碰 git 历史。只覆盖编辑工具改的文件，命令行命令造成的改动不在内。
-
-## 30 秒上手
-
-下载、填模型密钥、打开项目。第一次用，从桌面应用 Studio 开始。
-
-1. 从[发布页](https://github.com/esengine/DeepSeek-Reasonix/releases?q=studio-v&expanded=true)下载并安装桌面应用 Reasonix Studio。
-2. 打开应用，按提示填入模型服务商和密钥。
-3. 打开你的项目文件夹，写下想做的事，例如“给 http 客户端加上失败重试”。
-4. 按你选的档位，该问你的操作它会先停下来问；同意就继续，不同意就拒绝。
-
-更喜欢终端的话，下载 `reasonix` 命令行后运行 `reasonix setup` 配好模型，再运行 `reasonix` 即可。详见[安装](#安装)和[快速开始](#快速开始)。
-
-## 四种用法
-
- **桌面应用（Studio）**：图形界面，适合第一次使用。
- **终端**：全屏文字界面，也能用 `reasonix run "任务"` 在脚本里运行。
- **浏览器**：`reasonix web` 在本机打开网页界面。
- **编辑器**：VS Code 安装扩展即可；其他支持 ACP（Agent Client Protocol，编辑器接入某个 AI 助手的通用约定）的编辑器，可连接 `reasonix acp`。

+# Reasonix decision packet prototype
+
+An offline, CPU-only decision computation core. Given explicit facts, sources,
+options, constraints and preference directions, it persists evidence and decision
+notes, checks feasibility and projects a cited decision packet for a speaking
+model. An optional local GPU pipeline now interprets questions and attempts
+explanations using the cached DeepSeek backbone. Neither mode calls paid providers.
+It uses no phrase tables or classification head. The prior
+task-kind experiment does not supply authority or relevance for this prototype.
+
+## Current behavior
+
+- SQLite preserves imported evidence and decision-note identities. Changing an
+  existing identity is rejected; updates require a new ID and explicit
+  `supersedes` references. Old records remain available with their state.
+- Records include source URI/version, observation time and optional expiration.
+  Expired, future, conflicting and superseded facts cannot satisfy constraints.
+  Notes with invalid supporting evidence are marked unsupported.
+- Evidence selection follows declared topic identities and all option metric,
+  constraint and selected-note references. Conflicting counterparts are retained.
+  Source text is preserved verbatim. No model discovers relevant topics yet.
+- Numeric comparisons use Decimal and explicit matching units. Missing data is
+  unknown, never a passing constraint. Budget limits must match their cited fact.
+  Feasibility is conditional on imported evidence; sources are not independently
+  verified or fetched.
+- Pareto comparison uses only declared preference directions and known-feasible
+  options. It preserves tradeoffs and never supplies utility weights or a final
+  recommendation. Unknown options may change the frontier.
+- Cached packets bind to all canonical input content, engine version and exact
+  `as_of` time. Changes invalidate reuse. This is full-snapshot caching, not
+  partial recomputation or a provider prompt-cache savings claim.
+- All outputs are advisory. This is a local experiment, with no integration into
+  Reasonix's controller, decision provider, permissions or commercial service.
+
+## Run
+
+From the repository root, the engine itself needs only standard-library Python:
+
+```powershell
+python benchmarks/decision-engine/demo.py --output temp/decision-engine/fixtures
+python benchmarks/decision-engine/run.py temp/decision-engine/fixtures/normal.json --state temp/decision-engine/normal.sqlite --output temp/decision-engine/packet.json
+python -m unittest discover -s benchmarks/decision-engine -p 'test_*.py'
+```
+
+For exact counts with the already cached DeepSeek tokenizer:
+
+```powershell
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-engine/run.py temp/decision-engine/fixtures/normal.json --state temp/decision-engine/normal.sqlite --output temp/decision-engine/packet.json --tokenizer-cache temp/decision-model/model-cache
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-engine/evaluate.py --tokenizer-cache temp/decision-model/model-cache --output temp/decision-engine/measured.json
+```
+
+The tokenizer is local-only and pinned to the existing experiment's revision.
+No neural inference or GPU work is needed. Without it, token fields remain null;
+byte counts are not substituted for token counts. The default packet budget is
+4096 tokens; overflow is reported rather than truncating mandatory evidence.
+Repeating the first command with identical state and input demonstrates a cache
+hit. Use a separate SQLite file for each project/trust domain. The CLI does not
+provide multi-user isolation or authorization.
+
+## Input and persistence contract
+
+`example-request.json` is a compact authored example. `evidence` and `memory`
+records are imported into the selected state file. Incoming records merge with
+stored records before validation, allowing an update to reference an older ID.
+Invalid snapshots are rejected before ingestion. Omitting a record in a later
+input does not delete it; supersession and time validity determine its state.
+Question, topics, options, constraints and preferences come from the current
+request and are not inferred from source wording. Unknown schema references
+remain explicit errors or missing-evidence entries, not guessed values.
+
+Fact records declare `metric`, `value`, `unit` and a stable semantic `key`.
+Concurrent current values for the same key conflict. Sources with different
+spellings of the same semantic key are not automatically reconciled. An upstream
+adapter must validate identity assignments and fact extraction before deployment.
+Unit conversion, currencies, probabilistic forecasts and sensitivity analysis are
+not implemented. An imported score is an assumption, not a measured outcome.
+
+Error responses carry dotted codes such as `input.supersession_cycle` and
+`memory.identity_conflict`. Source content is untrusted data, not executable code
+or instructions. The prompt projection uses the same evidence-use instruction
+for raw context and decision packets. That instruction is not a security sandbox.
+
+## Measured pilot
+
+`measured-rtx3060-host.json` records seven authored variants of one planning
+scenario, tokenizer identity, measurement boundaries and exclusions. Normal
+inputs contain 24 deliberately irrelevant, repetitive archive records; those
+are omitted by explicit topic/reference selection.
+
+| Authored fixture | Raw input tokens | Full packet tokens | Change |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Long context with unrelated archive | 7,394 | 1,960 | 73.5% fewer |
+| Already compact context | 1,312 | 1,848 | 40.9% more |
+
+The other fixtures exercise expired evidence, conflicts, missing sources,
+incompatible units and a revised cost that changes feasibility. Referenced option
+and constraint sources are either retained or explicitly flagged missing; none
+silently disappear. Seven fixture checks pass, but they verify declared mechanism
+behavior, not user decision quality. The unit tests additionally exercise memory
+support, persistence, cache invalidation and invalid supersession.
+
+Token counts cover canonical raw context versus the full packet with the same
+instruction; they omit chat templates, natural-language extraction, provider
+inference, output tokens, retries and total cost. Timing starts after fixture
+loading, validation, ingestion and tokenizer loading. One run per case does not
+establish a latency distribution. No actual customer savings or faster model
+response is established. Small inputs can expand, and future integration must
+account for the entire pipeline rather than forwarding packets unconditionally.
+
+## Next integration boundary
+
+Add a validated adapter from the model's structured interpretation or user form
+to this contract. Preserve source identities through Reasonix's canonical memory
+and tools, then project the packet at the request tail through the shared
+controller. Do not mutate the cache-stable system prefix or turn this advisory
+packet into a permission gate. Before that integration, evaluate unseen decisions
+with and without packets, including evidence omissions, constraint violations,
+output tokens, retries, total latency and cost. Neither existing classification
+checkpoint is a substitute for this evaluation.
+
+## Natural-language pipeline pilot
+
+`pipeline.py` connects a speaking-model interface to the existing computation
+core. It accepts a natural-language question within a supplied structured
+catalog. Interpretation returns existing topic IDs, focus option IDs and typed
+needs-information codes. It cannot invent facts, constraints, weights or new
+options. Focus options annotate the question; the engine still checks every
+catalog option and preserves all host-declared constraints and preferences.
+Questions outside the catalog need additional data; arbitrary prose-to-fact
+extraction is not implemented.
+
+Only validated interpretations proceed to computation and state ingestion.
+Evidence and memory are still imported from the catalog, never invented by the
+model. Explanation output must contain the requested schema, every option and
+existing source identities supporting each option. These checks do not verify
+the truth of every prose sentence. Accepted explanations still require review;
+rejected explanations remain recorded in diagnostic traces and are not presented
+as validated answers. The computed packet remains separately available when
+explanation generation fails.
+
+The local model uses greedy generation with its reasoning prefix explicitly
+closed and a JSON opening prefilled in the input. It loads pinned official
+safetensors from the existing cache, with remote code and downloads disabled.
+This runtime uses the GPU and the full frozen language-model backbone; the
+classifier checkpoints do not participate. It is a protocol experiment, not
+fine-tuning or proof of reliable model semantics.
+
+```powershell
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-engine/pipeline.py benchmarks/decision-engine/example-request.json --question 'Compare the product improvements under our existing budget and deadline. Show the cost and impact tradeoffs.' --state temp/decision-engine/pipeline-demo.sqlite --output temp/decision-engine/pipeline-demo.json --model-cache temp/decision-model/model-cache --compare --attempts 1
+```
+
+The pipeline compares tokenizer-counted packet and raw-context-with-checks
+projections, choosing the smaller without discarding mandatory checks. Token
+budgets apply to interpretation, explanation, baseline and repair calls; required
+content is never silently truncated. This choice does not account for model
+answer-quality differences or eliminate the cost of the interpretation call.
+The direct baseline has the same question and response contract, receives the
+raw context, and performs no engine computation or interpretation. Reported
+pipeline totals include all interpretation/explanation attempts and repairs;
+baseline totals include all direct-answer attempts and repairs. Both use the
+same local model and generation settings in each paired run. Money saved and
+answer-quality equivalence remain null rather than inferred from token counts.
+
+`local-pipeline-pilot.json` preserves actual local runs and failures. The initial
+plain generation failed interpretation twice. JSON-prefilled generation produced
+a schema-valid interpretation for the authored English question; explanation
+generation remained unreliable despite a bounded response-shape example. The
+example is developmental, not an unseen benchmark. No accepted local explanation
+or production-readiness result is established. Short inputs can cost more once
+interpretation and retries are counted. See the pilot report for per-run counts.
+
+Scripted tests verify full accounting, mandatory-constraint preservation,
+invalid-source rejection, needs-information states, budget handling and failure
+without ingestion. They establish implementation behavior under supplied model
+responses, not actual model accuracy. The real GPU traces are distinct from
+these scripted tests. The native integration below has its own effect test;
+the Python natural-language pipeline remains an independent experiment.
+
+## Native Reasonix comparison capability
+
+`internal/tools/decision` implements `tool:decision_compare` in Go, registered
+through the shared boot runtime catalog. The main conversation model discovers its
+schema with `use_capability` inspect and submits sourced numeric facts through
+`use_capability` call. There is no separate interpretation-model invocation,
+Python process, GPU dependency or network request inside the tool.
+
+`native-request.json` is an authored two-plan example: A satisfies the budget;
+B exceeds it. Use its object as `arguments` in
+`{"action":"call","capability_id":"tool:decision_compare","arguments":{...}}`.
+Inspect first with
+`{"action":"inspect","capability_id":"tool:decision_compare"}`.
+
+The tool accepts decimal strings, explicit constraints, preference directions,
+source identities, observation times and optional expiry/supersession links.
+It uses exact rational arithmetic, reports missing, stale and conflicting
+evidence, preserves the caller's constraints, and returns the Pareto frontier
+over known-feasible options. It never selects a final winner. Evidence keys
+identify the same subject and metric across revisions; different options must
+use different keys. Units must match exactly; unit conversion is not inferred.
+
+Source contents remain caller-supplied and unverified. The main model can omit
+or misrepresent facts or constraints before the call; this tool cannot establish
+that its input covers the user's full question. It is stateless and does not
+import the Python prototype's SQLite decision memory or natural-language
+interpretation. Non-numeric judgments and arbitrary document extraction remain
+outside this capability.
+
+`TestEffectDecisionCompareReachesProviderWithoutExtraInference` runs real
+`boot.Build`, discovers the schema, and checks that computed and expired-evidence
+results reach subsequent provider requests. It verifies the provider tool schema
+stays stable and that these scripted tool calls add no separate inference call.
+These fixtures establish plumbing and arithmetic behavior, not model accuracy,
+real-world answer quality, end-to-end speed or token savings. Those require
+paired evaluation with a real speaking model and unseen tasks.
+
+```powershell
+go test ./internal/tools/decision
+go test ./internal/assembly/boot -run TestEffectDecisionCompare -count=1
+go test ./internal/tools/decision -run '^$' -bench BenchmarkDecisionCompare -benchmem
+```
+
+## Native evaluation findings
+
+The Go evaluation adds 1,000 generated one-metric comparisons across `lte`,
+`gte`, `eq`, negative values and both preference directions, plus 300 generated
+three-metric tradeoffs. Independent integer comparisons determine the expected
+constraint results and frontier. All 1,300 generated cases pass. These are
+synthetic arithmetic checks, not a model accuracy benchmark. Statement coverage
+for the native package is 87.0% in the local run.
+
+Adversarial cases reproduced three ambiguous comparison states: all options
+violating constraints, no known-feasible options, and no supplied preferences
+were all reported as `insufficient_information`. They now have distinct states:
+`no_feasible_options`, `no_known_feasible_options`, and
+`preferences_not_provided`. Unknown constraint checks carry value/limit
+diagnostics, including missing metrics and limit/unit mismatches. Known
+diagnostics are omitted to avoid repeating the resolved values. The real boot
+effect test confirms expiry diagnostics reach the subsequent provider request.
+
+`native_model_eval.py` compares raw structured requests with the native tool's
+complete result on four authored cases: budget, expired price, no feasible plan,
+and conflicting prices. Both arms use the same cached 1.5B model, Chinese output
+contract, greedy decoding and 192-token output ceiling, without retries. Exact
+decision match requires the entire four-field response to equal the expected
+object; correct partial fields never count as a passing answer. Duplicate JSON
+fields, invented winners and missing options are rejected by the evaluator.
+
+`native-model-evaluation.json` preserves the initial protocol: 0/4 exact matches
+in each arm, mostly copying input to the output ceiling. Its no-feasible raw
+fixture retained the old source prose while changing the numeric fact; do not
+use that initial run to judge prose/fact reasoning. `native-model-task-evaluation.json`
+uses a direct user instruction and a schema-specific response prefix, with
+consistent source prose; exact matches remain 0/4. The final result after
+omitting known diagnostic duplication is in `native-model-final-evaluation.json`:
+raw 0/4, native 1/4. The native expired-price response has correct option states
+but fails the full output contract. Conflicting and all-infeasible responses
+remain unreliable. These tiny development samples do not establish population
+accuracy or attribution to any single change.
+
+In the final four paired explanation calls, native inputs total 3,251 tokenizer
+tokens versus raw 2,259 (44% more); generated outputs total 490 versus 228.
+This counts the complete chat template, input prefill and generated EOS; it
+excludes model loading, actual agent discovery/call generation, computation and
+retries. Failed answers are included. No equivalent-quality cost or latency
+saving is established. On this i5-14600K, local tool benchmarks measured about
+64 microseconds for the two-option fixture and 2.52 milliseconds for 32 options
+with three metrics, including decoding, validation, comparison and JSON output;
+they exclude model calls and tool dispatch. The 32-option benchmark allocates
+about 1.52 MB per operation, so server concurrency still needs measurement.
+
+Priorities supported by these runs are: reuse the existing main speaking model;
+validate its answer before presenting it; expose the computed result directly
+when explanation fails; reduce repeated source/diagnostic context while keeping
+constraints and uncertainty visible; then evaluate unseen tasks and repeated
+evidence use. Arbitrary prose extraction, actual
+source verification and real-main-model agent evaluation remain unfinished.
+

+```
+
+## Structured answer checking and fallback
+
+The stateless experimental constructor `decision.NewCheck()` accepts `request`
+(the original comparison input) and `candidate_json` (the model's unmodified
+structured answer text). It recomputes the supplied request, checks exact option identities/statuses, the frontier as a
+set, comparison state, and a null recommendation. The candidate must have exactly
+`options`, `frontier`, `comparison_state`, and `recommended_option`. Unknown
+fields, duplicate JSON keys, missing fields, malformed/truncated JSON, missing
+options, invented options or winners, and incorrect judgments are rejected.
+
+The result always returns a canonical `decision` and sourced `basis` for valid
+requests. `answer_accepted` means the candidate's structured claims agree;
+`computed_fallback` includes typed reasons and returns the computed answer
+instead. Known source uncertainty, constraints and expiry/conflict diagnostics
+remain in the basis. Invalid original requests return `invalid`, since they do
+not support a trustworthy computed fallback. There is no repair model call.
+
+Both tools are optional runtime capabilities assembled by shared `boot.Build`,
+not members of the static builtin inventory. They respect a non-empty enabled
+tool list and are inspected through `use_capability`. Static builtin schema and
+provider-visible schema budgets stay unchanged. Boot effect tests verify schema
+discovery, valid acceptance, semantic rejection, malformed-candidate fallback,
+source/scope preservation, and stable provider tool schemas.
+
+`native-answer-check-evaluation.json` replays the eight previously recorded local
+model answers against their original host-recorded inputs: 1 accepted, 7 replaced
+with computed fallback, and all 8 canonical deliveries agree with the recorded
+computed expectations. This measures consistency and fallback behavior on those
+fixtures, not improved model accuracy, real-user quality or source truth.
+
+Stateless experiment callers must retain and supply the original input. A model
+can change a request before submitting it; that constructor does not bind it to
+an earlier comparison snapshot. It neither validates arbitrary prose nor intercepts the
+ordinary final chat message. Frontends may present returned structured decisions;
+automatic mandatory checking of all final decisions still needs a host-owned
+decision workflow. Replay preserves the local runtime's generation finish reason
+separately; the checker does not infer output-limit attribution from malformed
+text. Source verification remains separate work.
+
+```powershell
+go build -o temp/decision-engine/native-eval.exe ./benchmarks/decision-engine/native-eval
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-engine/check_model_answers.py --runner temp/decision-engine/native-eval.exe --recorded benchmarks/decision-engine/native-model-final-evaluation.json --output temp/decision-engine/answer-check.json
+```
+
+## Runtime request snapshots
+
+The in-memory experiment constructor `decision.NewRuntime()` exposes comparison,
+checking and evidence updates with one private snapshot store. Runtime `decision_compare`
+returns `snapshot_id` and `snapshot_expires_at` alongside its computed result.
+Runtime `decision_check` accepts only `snapshot_id` and `candidate_json`; it
+loads the immutable original request and recomputes it. Request replacement is
+rejected. Its validation scope is
+`structured_consistency_with_host_snapshot_only`. Stateless constructors remain
+available to benchmark programs but are not registered in the runtime catalog.
+
+Each independently built runtime owns its store. Snapshots use random 128-bit
+IDs, live for 30 minutes, and retain the original `as_of` reference time; they
+do not fetch new facts or turn historical evidence into present-day evidence.
+Identical canonical requests reuse their ID without renewing expiry. The store
+holds at most 64 snapshots of 256 KiB canonical serialized input each (16 MiB
+of retained serialized input, excluding Go overhead). Capacity/size failures
+are explicit; no live snapshot is silently evicted or truncated. Expired rows
+are reclaimed when saving another request. Unknown or expired IDs return typed
+errors without a guessed fallback. The cache writes no filesystem state.
+
+Snapshots disappear with the owning runtime and do not survive restart or
+rebuild. A controller's branches may share a runtime; this is independent-runtime
+isolation, not a multi-tenant authorization guarantee. The initial submitted
+facts and constraints remain caller-supplied and unverified. Structured checks
+are callable capabilities, not mandatory interception of free-form final text.
+
+`native-snapshot-evaluation.json` replays the same eight recorded answers in one
+live native process: 1 accepted, 7 computed fallbacks, all 8 canonical decisions
+match the recorded expectations and all bind to the saved request's SHA-256.
+Using the pinned cached tokenizer, serialized check arguments total 3,973 tokens
+with full-request resubmission versus 1,047 using snapshot IDs (about 74% fewer).
+The metric counts only check arguments and excludes initial comparison inputs,
+inspection schemas, response bodies, chat history, output tokens and retries.
+It establishes reduced retransmission, not whole-conversation or money savings.
+No new model calls participate in this replay.
+
+Unit tests cover immutable copies, duplicate-request reuse, replacement rejection,
+cross-runtime lookup rejection, capacity and exact expiry boundaries, canonical
+byte limits and concurrent access. The concurrent test passes Go's race detector.
+Expiry tests advance an injected clock; they do not claim a 30-minute live wait.
+Real boot effect tests obtain the ID from a comparison tool result and use it in
+subsequent check calls, asserting sourced fallback and a stable provider surface.
+
+```powershell
+go build -o temp/decision-engine/native-eval.exe ./benchmarks/decision-engine/native-eval
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-engine/replay_snapshot_answers.py --runner temp/decision-engine/native-eval.exe --recorded benchmarks/decision-engine/native-model-final-evaluation.json --model-cache temp/decision-model/model-cache --output temp/decision-engine/snapshot-evaluation.json
+```
+
+## Durable snapshots and explicit evidence versions
+
+Production `boot.Build` registers `decision.NewPersistentRuntime()` with a
+host-selected SQLite file under session storage, namespaced by workspace path.
+Rebuilding a controller with the same storage root and workspace restores IDs.
+Controllers in that scope share records; other workspace paths use separate
+files. This is account-local persistence, not tenant authentication or access
+control. Moving a workspace or changing session storage does not migrate IDs.
+
+Persistent records expire seven days after creation and retain their original
+`as_of` reference time. Each workspace holds at most 256 live records, each with
+at most 256 KiB of canonical request bytes (64 MiB of live serialized inputs,
+excluding database overhead, reusable pages and journals). Retry reuses the
+same ID without extending expiry. Saving reclaims expired rows; retention is
+logical expiry, not secure deletion or a fixed disk-file size limit.
+
+`decision_update` requires a parent `snapshot_id`, `as_of`, appended `evidence`
+with new IDs, and explicit `metric_updates`. Source revisions can declare
+`supersedes`; existing evidence cannot be overwritten. Option identities,
+constraints and preferences remain fixed. A successful update returns a new
+`snapshot_id` and `parent_snapshot_id`. Checks against the parent continue using
+the original evidence; a stale parent answer can fail against the child.
+Expired or missing parents cannot create new versions. Additional evidence and
+metric changes still pass all original input limits and validations.
+
+Writes use SQLite transactions, bounded busy waiting and full synchronous
+commit. Compare/update are classified as writes by the host; checking opens the
+database read-only. Unsupported databases, write failures and inconsistent
+records return typed errors without falling back to volatile memory. Request
+hashes and record checksums detect inconsistent data, not authenticated source
+truth or a malicious writer who rewrites both data and checksum.
+
+`native-persistence-evaluation.json` records one authored two-option fixture
+across three separate native processes: comparison, restore/update, then checks
+of both versions. All six assertions pass, including unchanged parent results,
+linked new version, rejection of an old answer on the new version, and acceptance
+of the new answer. This tests restart persistence and structured consistency;
+there are no model calls or new accuracy/cost claims. Real `boot.Build` effect
+tests also close and rebuild controllers twice, obtain IDs from actual provider
+tool results, and check both versions with stable provider schemas.
+
+Unit tests cover concurrent deduplication, seven-day expiry with an injected
+clock, capacity, immutable constraints, update validation, read-only missing
+stores, unsupported versions and externally altered rows. Corruption fixtures
+use direct test SQL writes; they demonstrate detection given inconsistent state,
+not an observed production corruption event or a malicious-tampering boundary.
+
+```powershell
+go build -o temp/decision-engine/native-eval.exe ./benchmarks/decision-engine/native-eval
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-engine/replay_persistence.py --runner temp/decision-engine/native-eval.exe --output temp/decision-engine/persistence-evaluation.json
+```
+
+## Checked reports without a separate explanation model
+
+The optional runtime capability `tool:decision_deliver` takes the same
+`snapshot_id` and `candidate_json` as `decision_check`. It loads the original
+version, computes and validates the answer, then returns the canonical decision
+and a deterministic Chinese report. Wrong, malformed or prose candidates produce
+`computed_fallback`; their text never enters the report. Missing, expired or
+corrupt snapshots produce typed errors with no deliverable report.
+
+The report includes reference time, snapshot expiry and parent version, original
+constraints and preference directions, option metrics, constraint verdicts,
+unknown-evidence causes, source versions and supersession links. It keeps source
+uncertainty and the conditional frontier visible, without naming a unique winner.
+The response carries `snapshot_sha256` and the validation scope separately.
+There is no explanation model call, network access or write. Unlike the diagnostic
+checker response, it does not repeat the full machine-readable evidence basis.
+
+`report.media_type` is `text/plain`; consuming interfaces must display
+`report.text` as plain text, treating quoted names and source metadata as
+untrusted data. This is a callable report capability, not an automatic frontend
+card or interception of ordinary final chat. The current renderer is Chinese;
+localized report selection and frontend-specific presentation remain separate
+work. Output larger than 256 KiB of serialized response is refused with
+`decision.report_output_limit` rather than returned as a partial report.
+
+`native-delivery-evaluation.json` replays eight previously recorded local-model
+answers across four authored cases: one accepted, seven computed fallbacks, all
+eight canonical results bound to their saved request hashes. The two candidates
+in each case yield identical report text. Report generation invokes no model.
+This proves the local report path and consistency on those fixtures; it does not
+measure real-user quality, end-to-end speed, total tokens or monetary savings.
+`native-delivery-example.txt` contains a generated report from the first case.
+Unit tests cover uncertainty, literal field boundaries, explicit output limits
+and restored child-version reports. A real `boot.Build` effect test discovers
+and calls the capability, verifies the report reaches the provider with corrected
+claims, and confirms the provider's static tool prefix remains unchanged.
+
+```powershell
+go build -o temp/decision-engine/native-eval.exe ./benchmarks/decision-engine/native-eval
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-engine/replay_delivery.py --runner temp/decision-engine/native-eval.exe --recorded benchmarks/decision-engine/native-model-final-evaluation.json --output temp/decision-engine/delivery-evaluation.json --example temp/decision-engine/delivery-example.txt
+```
+
+## Authenticated HTTP report delivery
+
+`POST /decision/deliver` now accepts `{snapshot_id, candidate_json}` and returns
+the same checked canonical decision and plain-text report as the native delivery
+tool. The shared controller owns this operation; assembly binds it to the
+enabled `decision_deliver` capability and its workspace store. A non-empty
+tool allowlist excluding that capability also disables the HTTP operation.
+The endpoint reads existing snapshots only. Create and update snapshots through
+the existing native capabilities; this route does not accept replacement inputs,
+change evidence or intercept the chat stream.
+
+The route uses the existing server authentication, host and CSRF guards. JSON
+content type and the launch credential are required even in server auth mode
+`none`. Responses are marked `Cache-Control: no-store`; requests and response
+reports are bounded to 256 KiB. Workspace/controller rebinding is serialized
+against report generation. Existing server authentication authorizes access to
+one account/workspace scope, not independent customer or tenant ownership.
+
+Candidate rejection is a successful HTTP 200 `computed_fallback`, since a
+canonical report was produced. Invalid request JSON/arguments return 400;
+missing snapshots 404; expired snapshots 410; oversized inputs 413; oversized
+reports 422; unavailable capabilities/storage 503. Domain failure responses carry
+their producer's `decision.*` code. Storage failures do not become bad-input
+responses or guessed reports. Transport cancellation and deadlines keep their
+own identities. Chinese and English refusal wording are included in the frontend
+catalogue; the report renderer itself remains Chinese.
+
+Tests exercise authorized delivery, restored snapshots, incorrect candidates,
+strict duplicate-field rejection, missing IDs, input limits, disabled capability,
+invalid database handling, no-cache headers and missing credentials. A real
+`boot.Build -> authenticated HTTP` effect test loads an authored comparison saved
+through the public native comparison tool and delivers its corrected report with
+zero provider inference calls. This is evidence for the report endpoint's effect,
+not a paid deployment, tenant isolation, production workload or latency benchmark.

+# Local task-kind decision experiment
+
+An offline experiment for a future Reasonix advisory capability. It scores eight
+task categories with DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B on a CUDA GPU. It does not
+select a production model, grant tool permissions, or change execution policy.
+
+## First measured baseline
+
+On this RTX 3060, the 51 included English task prompts produced:
+
+| Method | Correct / included | Valid label responses | Timing |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Forced single forward pass, batch 1 | 6 / 51 (11.8%) | 51 / 51 | Median 49.7 ms per request; 2.63 s total |
+| Greedy reasoning, 512-token cap, batch 8 | 13 / 51 (25.5%) | 30 / 51 | 102.29 s total; median 14.82 s until a batch completes |
+| Always choose the largest class | 11 / 51 (21.6%) | 51 / 51 | Statistical reference only |
+
+Reasoning had 18 output-limit failures and three malformed final answers. Batch
+timing is not isolated-request timing. Counts use declared task kinds as labels,
+not task execution success. These baseline runs trained no model and called no
+paid provider. Neither baseline establishes cost savings or production readiness.
+
+The two `baseline-*-rtx3060.json` files preserve model and dataset revisions,
+per-class recall, metric definitions, timing, and limits. Full local predictions
+are in `temp/decision-model/results/` and
+`temp/decision-model/reasoning-batch-results/`. An interrupted sequential
+reasoning trial under `reasoning-results/` is not part of the comparison.
+
+## Trained classification head v1
+
+The frozen DeepSeek backbone now feeds a trained linear classifier with 24,584
+learned parameters. Its eight outputs are task kinds, not answers to coding
+requests. The head is 123,184 bytes, but inference still requires the full 1.5B
+backbone. No backbone weights were updated.
+
+| Evaluation population | Correct / included | Interpretation |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Authored validation | 90 / 96 (93.8%) | Used for checkpoint selection |
+| Authored held-out test | 91 / 96 (94.8%) | 16 scenario families; six correlated variants each |
+| Previously seen development regression | 29 / 51 (56.9%) | Same included prompts as the baselines above |
+
+Training uses 396 rows. Translations and wrappers stay within their scenario
+family and split. Exact prompt duplicates and families crossing splits are
+rejected; semantic overlap is not ruled out. Labels are authored, and wrapper
+styles are shared between splits. These results do not estimate customer accuracy.
+The test split was scored after selection and was not used to choose the head.
+
+The regression run took 1.57 seconds total, with median 29.0 ms and p95 45.0 ms
+per sequential request, excluding loading and warmup. Peak allocated GPU memory
+was 2.89 GiB. It uses plain requests with terminal EOS and a 1024-token limit,
+whereas the forced baseline uses a category menu and a 2048-token limit. Timing
+is for classification only. API integration scored 0/4 and read-only output 0/3;
+this head is still an experimental advisory capability.
+
+The durable checkpoint is `checkpoints/head-v1/`; its metadata records the pinned
+backbone, head hash, dataset hashes and split results. The measured regression
+is preserved in `baseline-trained-head-rtx3060.json`. Full local predictions are
+under `temp/decision-model/trained-head-results/`.
+
+```powershell
+# Train a new checkpoint; the command refuses to overwrite an existing one.
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/train_head.py --output temp/decision-model/head-reproduction
+# Serve the saved v1 on loopback.
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/run.py serve --method trained-head --checkpoint benchmarks/decision-model/checkpoints/head-v1
+# Alternatively, check transport with a temporary server that closes itself.
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/smoke.py --checkpoint benchmarks/decision-model/checkpoints/head-v1
+```
+
+Both training and trained-head inference load the pinned backbone from the local
+cache without downloading or executing remote model code. On another server,
+provision that backbone in the cache before running. The linear scores remain
+uncalibrated. No provider selection, successful-task cost reduction, billing or
+production integration has been measured or implemented.
+
+## GitHub issue pilot (v2 candidate, not promoted)
+
+Authenticated read-only `gh` GraphQL access retrieved 60 merged PR records from
+each of seven public Python repositories (420 PR records). A single Codex review
+selected 52 linked issue reports and assigned task-kind labels with written
+rationales in `github_annotations.json`. This is a convenience sample; unselected
+records were not all adjudicated. Private repositories and author profiles were
+not collected. No issue, PR, comment or repository was modified on GitHub.
+
+The model sees only the issue title and current body. Linked PR metadata and
+changed paths support retrospective label review and provenance, not inference.
+This does not establish reproduction or fix correctness: no downloaded project
+code or issue command was executed. Current issue bodies sometimes suggest fixes
+and may have post-resolution edits; backbone pretraining contamination is unknown.
+
+Repositories were assigned to splits before training: Flask, Click and pytest
+provide 30 training issues; Werkzeug provides six validation issues; Rich,
+Requests and HTTPX provide 16 test issues. Training retains the 396 previous
+training rows for 426 total. Whole-repository separation and prompt/family audits
+are enforced. Only three categories occur in the GitHub test population.
+
+| Method | GitHub held-out issues | Existing 51-task development regression |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| v1 synthetic-trained head | 1 / 16 (6.3%) | 29 / 51 (56.9%) |
+| v2 GitHub candidate | 10 / 16 (62.5%) | 14 / 51 (27.5%) |
+| Majority category reference | 10 / 16 (62.5%) | 11 / 51 (21.6%) |
+
+The v2 candidate predicts atomic-bugfix for every GitHub test issue. Its balanced
+accuracy over the three represented categories is 33.3%; it does not improve on
+the majority reference and regresses on the existing task mix. Validation is just
+six issues (five atomic bugs) and selects epoch one by cross-entropy. The dataset
+and selection population are too narrow for deployment. Preserve v1; v2 is saved
+only as an experimental candidate. No automatic fallback or default promotion is
+implemented. Do not tune repeatedly against these now-seen 16 issues and call
+them a fresh test; further experiments need a new held-out population.
+
+`github-head-comparison-rtx3060.json` preserves the paired comparison and source
+URLs. `baseline-github-head-rtx3060.json` preserves the v2 regression measurement.
+`github-data-manifest-v1.json` and `github-review-ledger-v1.json` record split
+hashes and reviewed sources. Raw snapshots and full selected issue text remain
+in ignored `temp/decision-model/github-snapshot-v1/` and `github-data-v1/` on this
+machine. The checkpoint under `checkpoints/head-v2-github/` records provenance.
+Repository license identifiers are recorded; rights to issue prose have not been
+independently reviewed for commercial redistribution.
+
+```powershell
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/github_collect.py --output temp/decision-model/github-snapshot-reproduction
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/github_bundle.py --snapshot temp/decision-model/github-snapshot-reproduction --output temp/decision-model/github-data-reproduction
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/train_head.py --data temp/decision-model/github-data-v1 --output temp/decision-model/head-github-reproduction
+```
+
+Collection refreshes current GitHub state, so hashes may change. Exact training
+reproduction uses the existing local audited `github-data-v1` snapshot. No paid
+provider was called. This trains task classification, not code-solving behavior
+or the choice of cheapest successful model.
+
+## Run on the current Windows machine
+
+```powershell
+python -m venv --system-site-packages temp/decision-model/venv
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe -m pip install -r benchmarks/decision-model/requirements.txt
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/run.py evaluate
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/run.py classify --text '修复 pricing.py 中没有正确应用折扣的问题'
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe -m unittest discover -s benchmarks/decision-model -p 'test_*.py'
+```
+
+## Local advisory API
+
+```powershell
+& ./temp/decision-model/venv/Scripts/python.exe benchmarks/decision-model/run.py serve
+Invoke-RestMethod http://127.0.0.1:8767/health
+$requestBody = @{text = '修复 pricing.py 中没有正确应用折扣的问题'} | ConvertTo-Json
+Invoke-RestMethod http://127.0.0.1:8767/v1/task-kind -Method Post -ContentType 'application/json; charset=utf-8' -Body ([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($requestBody))
+```
+
+This development API binds only to loopback and serves requests sequentially.
+The body must contain only a nonempty `text` field and be at most 32 KiB. Inputs
+above the model token limit return 422 rather than silently truncating. The
+response is explicitly advisory and exposes no tools or execution permissions.
+It has no billing, customer authentication, tenant isolation or production
+scheduling. Those belong to a separately designed commercial service boundary.
+
+After evaluating, run `smoke.py --revision <recorded SHA>` with the experiment's
+Python executable to check the real GPU API with one English and one Chinese
+request. It closes its temporary server and writes `api-smoke.json` alongside
+the local reports. This checks transport and response structure, not accuracy.
+
+The existing Python installation must supply a CUDA-enabled PyTorch. The
+environment reuses it without modifying its packages. Model weights, the venv,
+and reports live under ignored `temp/decision-model/`. Only official safetensors
+weights are loaded; remote model code is disabled. The first run resolves a
+model commit and records it. Use `--revision <recorded SHA>` to reproduce it.
+
+`export` needs only Python 3.11 or newer. It derives separate training and
+evaluation JSONL files from the existing training and e2e corpora. Neither
+source corpus is modified. Exact whitespace-normalized cross-split duplicates
+are rejected; semantic overlap is not ruled out. There are only 12 existing
+training examples, insufficient for a credible training experiment.
+
+## What the experiment measures
+
+The target is each task's declared `class`, not which model can solve it most
+cheaply. All eight supported classes are included; other classes are listed in
+the manifest as excluded. Only the request text reaches the model. Task ids,
+labels, reference solutions and repository contents do not.
+
+The R1 checkpoint is forced to answer directly without generating a reasoning
+trace. One forward pass scores eight single-token answer options. Category
+ordering rotates deterministically by input hash. The selected label is the
+largest score. Restricted softmax weights are uncalibrated; they cannot be used
+as a probability of correctness or as a deployment threshold. The unrestricted
+probability mass of the answer tokens is also recorded to expose forced choices.
+
+For a normal-generation control, pass `--method reasoning --output
+temp/decision-model/reasoning-results`. This leaves the thinking prefix open,
+allows up to 512 new tokens, and accepts only a single letter after the
+`</think>` boundary and before EOS. Other outputs count as failures. Preserve
+the original single-pass report rather than overwriting it. This control is
+needed to distinguish a failed forced-scoring shortcut from the model's normal
+task-classification ability. It does not train or calibrate the model.
+
+Add `--batch-size 8` to evaluate generation in groups. Each row's latency then
+means time until its entire batch finishes, not isolated-request latency. Output
+padding after EOS is excluded from token counts. Malformed and token-limited
+answers count as incorrect and remain in latency statistics. Coverage is the
+fraction with valid labels, not the fraction of inference calls attempted.
+
+Accuracy counts agreement over all included tasks, including skipped oversized
+inputs as incorrect. Balanced accuracy averages recall over represented classes.
+The majority-class baseline uses the same evaluation population. Timing begins
+before tokenization and ends after synchronized GPU inference and result
+extraction. It excludes download, loading, warmup and task execution. Requests
+run sequentially at batch size one for single-pass and trained-head methods;
+generation uses the configured batch size. The report records peak allocated GPU memory,
+not the total graphics memory shown by the driver.
+
+This baseline establishes neither savings nor commercial readiness. Before
+integration, collect training-only task outcomes for candidate model/workflow
+choices, audit split overlap, evaluate Chinese and unfamiliar tasks, calibrate
+on a separate validation split, and compare total successful-task cost and
+latency against a fixed provider baseline. Predicted task kinds must remain
+advisory; existing typed contracts and host permission boundaries retain authority.
+
+## Commercial provenance
+
+The checkpoint is a Qwen-based model fine-tuned by DeepSeek with R1 reasoning
+data, not the full DeepSeek-V3 base model. DeepSeek's official R1 repository
+permits commercial use and derivative work and identifies the original Qwen
+Apache-2.0 license. Retain applicable notices with any distributed weights.

+# Task-kind head v1
+
+`head.safetensors` contains a linear classifier and training-set normalization
+statistics. It is not a standalone language model. Use it through the experiment's
+`HeadScorer` with the frozen DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B backbone pinned to
+`ad9f0ae0864d7fbcd1cd905e3c6c5b069cc8b562`.
+
+SHA-256: `2af5484aa19f7766cbc205ffaf67d2aa1dc26bf1f0069da225daac9b66ee7094`.
+The loader checks this hash, the feature schema, shapes and category mapping
+before inference. `metadata.json` records training provenance and limitations.
+The backbone remains a separate dependency with its applicable DeepSeek and
+Qwen license notices; retain those when distributing backbone weights.
+
+This checkpoint predicts eight advisory task kinds. It does not generate code,
+grant permissions, select a paid provider or establish customer cost savings.
+See the parent experiment README for measured performance and reproduction.

+# GitHub classification candidate v2 — not promoted
+
+This 123,184-byte linear head requires the separate frozen DeepSeek-R1-Distill-
+Qwen-1.5B backbone. It is an experimental task-kind classifier, not a code-solving
+language model. No backbone parameters were trained.
+
+SHA-256: `8064c56139e355f05d0170d5a9f6abd79d1bb8f4ab6699ba59938750eb3a0fa6`.
+
+Training used 30 reviewed GitHub issues plus 396 previous training rows. Six
+Werkzeug issues selected the checkpoint; sixteen Rich, Requests and HTTPX issues
+were held out. All sixteen test predictions were atomic-bugfix, matching the
+majority baseline at 10/16. Existing-task accuracy regressed from 29/51 to 14/51.
+Do not replace v1 with this candidate. See the experiment README and metadata
+for provenance, data-rights limitations and reproduction instructions.
