Forge RC

V5.5 Forge RC

Historical software prototype

Adds explicit viability and bridge firewalls before idea harvesting. Failed candidates remain legible in structured failure records with repair reasons instead of being packaged as discoveries.

Philosophy

Failure is itself a useful research artifact when it can be located, read and routed to repair. Candidate status remains bounded by the strength of prior evidence.

Architecture & control flow

  1. 01

    EquationTermModel combines operator, state and coefficient units.

  2. 02

    ViabilityVerdict separates viable, repairable and rejected candidates; harvesting requires complete P→E→T→I links, defined symbols and viable equations.

  3. 03

    MutationSignalRouter routes diagnostics to repairs, while CoMath adds a persistent message bus, workstream coordination and claim provenance.

  4. 04

    Package audits check nested schemas, ID links and JSONL synchronization; synthetic-prior strength caps the verdict.

Architecture outline derived from this version’s control flow.

Inputs & outputs

Inputs

Spark equations and bridge clusters, conjecture definitions, physics diagnostics and prior strength.

Outputs

Structured failed-cluster/exploration reasons, viability categories, three package-audit reports and a prior-capped discovery package.

Implemented components

  • Firewalls, the unit model, signal router, workstream/message-bus structures and audit utilities exist in code.

Implementation & evidence scope

This is the Forge RC: the Final audit explicitly identifies incomplete live inner-loop wiring and a default honest-failure result. Only a synthetic prior backend ships; coordination records do not imply autonomous proof or literature research. RC and Final share the 5.5 version tag but differ in package and implementation, so their qualifiers must remain distinct.

Code & bundled material

The introduction draws on bundled notes, changelogs and central code. Software tests, synthetic diagnostics and scientific effectiveness use different evidence standards.
