  "publicationStatus": "Representation-equivalence qualification completed and stopped",
  "executiveSummary": [
    "Hiro tested whether the original ten canonical claims produced by the hosted grounded extractor were operationally equivalent downstream to the six frozen gold claims. This was a representation-equivalence qualification only: no extraction, discovery, reproduction, candidate construction, promotion, or production mutation occurred.",
    "Both immutable claim sets passed their already-recorded deterministic, semantic, and provenance validation. Each set then traversed the same current experiment-feasibility planner, independent plan validator, current-capability assessor, and independent capability auditor against one repository revision and one shared telemetry cutoff.",
    "The representations were not operationally equivalent. Three proposition families were decision-equivalent, two were benign duplications, and two were material false negatives. In both false-negative cases, the gold claim produced a valid local Hiro-transfer experiment plan while its hosted counterpart or counterparts were rejected as not Hiro-relevant before current-capability assessment.",
    "The hosted false span terminated safely as not Hiro-relevant and created no capability assessment, reproduction, corroboration, or candidate lineage. The hosted set nevertheless expanded six proposition families into ten independent claim IDs, causing four additional feasibility planning and validation units and creating a capacity-amplification risk because no semantic family deduplication occurs before feasibility.",
    "Final disposition: HOSTED GROUNDED EXTRACTION NOT OPERATIONALLY SUFFICIENT — CLAIM_REPRESENTATION_TO_HIRO_RELEVANCE. The frozen twenty-source qualification remains uncleared, and Phase 3F remains stopped."

        "The control consisted of exactly six frozen gold canonical claims from three positive sources. The hosted arm consisted of the exact original ten hosted canonical claims from the pre-consolidation qualification.",
        "The accepted post-hoc mapping remained unchanged: six GOLD_EQUIVALENT outputs, three OVER_SPLIT_CLAIM outputs, and one FALSE_SPAN output, organized into six proposition families plus the false-span control.",

        "No semantic proposition-family deduplication or lineage collapse occurs before feasibility or capability eligibility. Distinct claim IDs retain common source provenance, so over-splitting does not manufacture independent sources, but it does manufacture independent downstream work units."

        "Necessary atomicity does not mean uniformly shorter spans. The required unit must preserve the complete transferable mechanism and material conditions: one failed family was a one-to-one GOLD_EQUIVALENT mapping with lost context, while the structured-handoff control succeeded by retaining its related benchmark observations as one complete mechanism-level claim rather than isolated numeric fragments."

  "limitations": [
    "The feasibility and capability judgments use the current local model at temperature zero, but the backend does not expose a fixed sampling seed. The immutable outputs are therefore the evidence for this qualification run.",
    "This task measured eligibility decisions only. It intentionally did not execute probes, reproductions, corroboration, candidate construction, or promotion, so later amplification is identified from the actual claim-keyed interfaces rather than exercised.",
