Release v0.47.2: stop shipping internal dirs; record the cypher pilots - #254
Merged
Conversation
Bundles #235 (comms/ and research/ out of the built package) and #253 (finish-time packing), plus the evidence behind the latter. The run record and logs README are the first instance of soul#129 — a convention proposing that measurement runs leave something findable, not just a timestamped log. Today produced four paid spins, four defects and the 0.0391 vs 0.0872 min/1k-segment host ratio that rewrote the packer, and none of that chain was findable without reading a chat transcript. The record deliberately keeps the dead ends, because they are the evidence: the root cause was diagnosed correctly, retracted on a bad inference (presence taken as provenance, one level above the bug itself), then confirmed by measurement; and two of the four defects were in gates written to catch that class, both passing tests that structurally could not fail. Note the two land together on purpose. #235 means research/ no longer ships, which is what makes #253's regenerated study_areas.md a non-shipping change and settles the question of whether it warranted its own release.

Bundles the two already-merged changes into one release, plus the evidence behind them.
Why one release, not two
#235 stops
comms/andresearch/shipping — verified against the built tarball, 15/22 → 0/0. That is the substantive user-visible change: 37 files leave the installed package.It also settles the question #253 raised. That PR's only shipped file was a regenerated
research/study_areas.md; with #235 in,research/no longer ships at all, so #253 genuinely shipped nothing and did not warrant its own tag.#253 packs distributed work by finish time rather than segment count — the dispatcher is 2.23× faster than a cypher, so balancing segments left it idle 96 minutes. Provincial modelling 191 → 150 min; end-to-end 5.0 h → 4.3 h.
The evidence, made findable
First instance of soul#129:
research/run_record_2026_08_31_cypher_pilots.md— question, method, measurement, conclusion, dead endsdata-raw/logs/README.md— what each filename pattern is, and that the logs are retained as evidence rather than accumulated by accidentstamps.tsv(parity across both hosts) and the compare CSVThe record keeps the wrong turns on purpose. The root cause was diagnosed correctly, retracted on a bad inference, then confirmed by measurement — presence taken as provenance, one level above the bug itself. And two of the four defects were in gates written to catch that class, both passing tests that structurally could not fail.
