MCRP / Research prototype

Final mathematical reviewer verdict

Assent to publishing the curated research prototype as a protocol seed. This is an endorsement of the packet’s bounded analytical presentation and reproducible synthetic experiments, not of a live service, scientific authority, empirical efficacy or a general cooperation equilibrium.

The mathematical reviewer has independently closed RM-1, RM-2 and RM-3:

The runtime reviewer’s zero-hold ledger repair was also independently checked: three attempted positive settlements against zero reservations were rejected without charging work. The five coupled traces and all 7,400 sweep runs were reproduced again after that repair; 888 replicate-level intervals and all aggregate shares were checked. The 216 ecology runs, 351 aggregate/paired metrics, local-map derivative and common-blindness negative control were independently reproduced.

The newly exposed correction-credit incentive remains an explicit research limitation. A defective-offer fixture can generate more recognition through correction than clean unaudited work; the present agents cannot strategically choose their defect rates. No claim of incentive compatibility follows from bounded credit. Likewise, group-first sampling, conditional completion envelopes, funded audit marginals and expected repair bounds do not combine automatically into one network guarantee.

I agree with the runtime and domain/legal reviewers’ shared formulation: release the small inspectable boundary and its failures, retaining simple uniform routing as a baseline. A human can engage through one synthetic claim and a colleague; an implementer can run the executable models immediately. Neither path requires pretending that unimplemented identity, appointment, legal duties or human behavior have been solved.

This verdict covers the mathematical/code state hashed in repair-verification.json and second-wave-results.json, the ecology state in ecology-review-results.json, and the reviewed launch/onboarding prose. Final export integrity, attribution, licensing scope, public destination and accountable intake are release-integration decisions, not mathematical conclusions. The individual reports and original counterexamples remain part of the evidence; this final disposition supersedes their earlier pending-repair conditions.

Correction-game update. The subsequent correction-game-addendum.md reviews all 18 one-step payoff outcomes and eight tests. Independent direct calculations match the recorded values. Continued assent includes this addition, with clean-author credit, externalized coalition cost and one-case scalar repair capacity kept distinct from a composed verification/repair service. correction-game-review-results.json binds this check to its source hash.

Human-design and final collective update. I independently verified all 15 artificial power rows by full labeled-assignment enumeration and reran the eight repaired design tests. RM-4 is closed: missing-outcome intervals are explicitly bounds on the realized randomized-arm contrast, not the finite-population causal effect or its uncertainty. The integrated synthesis now correctly says the switching maps clear work when repeatedly applied alone. I have read the final collective report and assent to its joint research-seed recommendation, including its noncomposition warning, ordinary publication decisions and separate final exact-archive verification. The earlier “human-design review pending” status can be retired. No mathematical blocking finding remains in the reviewed candidate. human-pilot-addendum.md and human-pilot-review-results.json preserve the independent checks and remaining design assumptions.

Funded-audit update. Continued assent includes the repaired delivered-audit fixture. RM-5 (epsilon-funded hours) and RM-6 (floating tie reversals) are closed through exact hour and utility arithmetic. I independently checked 3,839 positive-probability selection/detection paths across nine cases, reproduced all 11 recorded traces and 220 sweep runs, and ran all 18 tests. The concealed fixed-population participation premise is explicit; the addition does not establish auditor incentives, identity, legitimate sanctions or general cooperation. funded-audit-addendum.md and funded-review-results.json retain the original failures, source hash and detailed scope.
