Reconciliation

Boundary and identity

The reports concern the shipped improvement framework, including its persistence loop, demo, adapters and bundled overlays, not complete external solver or evaluator implementations. The boundary and Source register supply implementation, doctrine/design and reported-operation evidence, but no observed-run or causal-experiment evidence. Implemented architectural status and wired implementation conclusions do not establish exercised behavior or benefit. Faithful uncertainty about generated content, native compaction, actual rationale use and provider weights is not a disagreement.

No supersession is made. Comparison of the supplied declarations rules out whole-record identity as follows:

The workflow annotations add coordination, veto and delivery roles to runtime records; they declare no new identities. Memory's annotations likewise retain the runtime referents. MEM-CLM-compaction-boundary concerns external context configuration, not another declaration of solver execution.

Connected findings and integration dispositions

Coordination, rejection and delivery. RT-RTE-task-recursion and the workflow account connect phase-level fan-out/fan-in to composed finals. RT-RTE-edit-admission provides structural veto and inherited fallback, not proof of semantic correctness or a changed harness. RT-RTE-output-selection and workflow distinguish a valid persisted selection from a fallback label left on a failed selection. Only successful selection authorizes the subsequent reflection handoff. The k=1 path remains delivery without comparative model selection. These findings converge without upgrading implementation to successful operation.

Rendering and consumer reach. The full-trajectory issue in memory's integration issues is a qualification, not a disagreement with runtime's truncation caveat. MEM-RTE-evidence-frame supplies clipping and prefix budgets; EPI-OBJ-execution-evidence preserves the distinction between imported evidence and its delivered projections. The runtime forcing-route account now specifies WorkBuddy's subset-dependent paths: code uses names-only improvement/reflection evidence, while web and office use contents, and office can also expose raw assets. Selection independently renders deliverables. JobBench can fall back to raw extraction. Memory's descriptions of names-only and contents branches remain compatible with this scope. No universal WorkBuddy withholding, identical judge/proposer rendering or lossless model-window conclusion follows.

Evaluation-related selection has two distinct locations. RT-RTE-solver-execution and RT-RTE-resume-reuse now retain WorkBuddy's upstream grade-availability ranking: fresh trials and batched reusable trials prefer parseable grades, then recency within groups, while single-rollout reuse chooses the newest usable trial. This selects execution evidence before final-output selection; it does not prefer higher score values or supply an expected answer to the improver. EPI-RTE-judge-result instead describes the separate judge CLI's scored records and reporting consumers. Its statement that those results do not revise the task's admitted lesson or harness is not a denial of the adapter's grade-availability predicate. Likewise, the workflow's downstream-judging statement concerns the admission test for final artifact choice, not every upstream adapter selection. The connection therefore prevents saying that all evaluation-related selection is confined to the separate judge CLI, without treating the reports as asserting conflicting oracle access.

Reflection, parsing and warrant. The memory annotation on RT-RTE-experience-admission traces executions through comparisons, edit rows and fields to the library. EPI-RTE-lesson-parse adds a reachable loss of an unkeyed qualifying continuation. This supplements memory's linewise parser account; it does not assert an observed degraded response. The runtime route remains a valid container, while the epistemic ledger separates generation, parsing, disposition, retention and advisory use. Field and marker admission do not establish lesson truth or component-effect acceptance. EPI-CLM-evidence-lessons connects this limit to the source's warrant claim. Requested abstention and confounding caution do not prove model compliance.

Read-back and withdrawal. MEM-OBJ-library-index and MEM-RTE-evidence-frame distinguish coarse automatic supply from model-directed browsing. RT-BAP-harness-consumption and the workflow retention account place direct solver authority after copying/adaptation, admission and installation, not at library membership. MEM-RTE-library-withdrawal removes future supply at that point in the stream; RT-RTE-resume-reuse can reconstruct eligible entries from summaries. These lifetimes are compatible. No global erasure, descendant revocation or semantic truth-maintenance guarantee follows.

Demo and oracle scope. MEM-CLM-demo-experience qualifies ordinary model authorship with a distinct scripted mode. EPI-RTE-demo-check adds the source-derived Decimal reference, substring criterion, k=1 bypass and scripted reflection limits. Runtime and workflow describe ordinary benchmark model-selection roles, not a blanket oracle-free framework. The demo supplies neither evidence of ordinary improver oracle exposure nor empirical support for learning or transfer.

Measurement and reported benefit. EPI-RTE-score-cache can preserve an old graded row after a failed re-judge; EPI-RTE-score-report computes means over graded rows. These qualify measurement interpretation without changing final-selection identity. EPI-CLM-benchmark-gains remains reported operation, not reproduced performance or an independently identified component effect.

Opaque context and independent properties. MEM-CLM-compaction-boundary establishes configuration, not native checkpoint payloads or actual compaction. This is compatible with the external-runtime limits in RT-RTE-solver-execution. The theory-builder, learning and reflection findings in RT-RTE-edit-admission, and the dispositional versus exercised self-change distinction in RT-RTE-experience-admission, remain independent. Epistemic and workflow findings supply no observed evidence that upgrades them. Their uncertainty does not negate the inspected library or evidence-frame wiring.

Conflict disposition

No cross-report disagreement requiring an Unresolved conflict: paragraph is identified in the current pinned inputs. No correction answers or declined cross-report objections were supplied. The previous reconciliation was not used as evidence for current connections: the current runtime's subset-specific rendering and upstream grade-availability selection are connected above to the other reports' scoped findings. No additional frozen-source reads were needed.
