Physics current-state snapshot

Current Physics State

This page is a reviewed website snapshot of upstream physics control state. It helps readers see the active derivation burden, blocked claims, and next source-side action without treating the website as scientific authority.

Current physics state boundary map
Visual orientation only: source state, website snapshot, and claim authority remain distinct.

Current-state comprehension

A snapshot reports source state; it does not refresh or promote claims.

The current-state page presents checked-in upstream control data for readers. It must preserve snapshot date, drift limits, blocked claims, and the distinction between scoped evidence/precondition acceptance and downstream GR promotion.

Diagram showing upstream control state flowing into a checked-in website snapshot with blocked downstream claims preserved.
Static comprehension diagram: current-state pages report a bounded snapshot and preserve blocked downstream claims.Mermaid source: docs/content-dossiers/physics-current-state/diagrams/snapshot-boundary.mmd. Manifest id: comprehension_physics_current_state_snapshot_boundary.

The diagram is a static reader aid. It does not replace the source files, route dossiers, or claim-status records that govern the topic.

Mechanism

How to read this surface.

Terms

Define the loaded words before using them.

Checked-in snapshot
A JSON copy of selected upstream control state committed to the website repo.Not a live source authority surface.
Blocked claim
A claim explicitly not authorized by the current source state.It must not be softened into implied progress.
Gate readiness
A selector or source record may route evidence to a future protected review.Not a Gate Chair verdict, coupling-law adoption, matter-coupling adoption, or downstream GR promotion.

Boundaries

What this page must not imply.

No auto-refresh
Builds do not update source stateSnapshot drift must be handled by the curator workflow and explicit refresh, not assumed away.
No promotion
Draft/control stays draft/controlThe snapshot cannot promote MetricData(E), g_eff scope change, matter coupling, equations, or benchmark status.

Safe reading

A useful summary also names the unsafe one.

Safe summary
Supported readingThe current-state page is a checked-in website snapshot of upstream physics control state with blocked downstream claims preserved.
Unsafe summary
Forbidden shortcutThe website snapshot auto-refreshes, adopts draft/control data, adopts a coupling law, adopts matter coupling, derives Einstein equations, or promotes the benchmark.

Distance-to-GR state

Distance from GR derivation or hard fail

The active Distance-to-GR burden is none. The checked-in snapshot reports unchanged_final_validation_onlyand preserves the current human-gate boundary. Downstream equations, benchmark promotion, and any Gate Chair verdict remain separate controlled states, so this page reports burden state rather than a numerical completion score.

Milestone chain

Burden ladder

The control map names source ontology, EqSrc, ObsLoc_lc, Resp_lc, M_src, g_eff, matter coupling, Einstein equations, benchmark promotion, and finite toy response as separate obligations.

Ledger

Persistent row state

The Distance-to-GR ledger records each burden's status, blocking burden, acceptance criteria, freeze or failure criteria, evidence path, timestamp, and notes.

Task accounting

Milestone declared per packet

Physics AgentJobs must state the target derivation milestone and exact milestone burden before a task can be treated as derivation work.

Delta fields

Validation separated from progress

Completion records distinguish task validation from physics progress through explicit progress status, distance-to-GR delta, payload manifest, and forbidden conclusions.

Freeze control

Repeated gaps are classified

Obstruction and freeze control prevents repeated orbit around the same gap by requiring route, repair, freeze, or human-gate decisions when a burden recurs.

Reader rule

Distance means burden state.

A row can move, stay blocked, freeze locally, or require human gate authority. The page should therefore be read as a status map, not as a numerical completion score.

Current boundary

Scoped progress does not unlock GR.

The current public state preserves the negative boundary: no source-law adoption, no MetricData(E) adoption, no g_eff scope change, no adopted matter coupling, no Einstein equations, no benchmark promotion, and no completed derivation.

Active burden
No active Distance-to-GR ledger burdenunchanged_final_validation_only. The latest handoff preserves downstream boundaries without changing the Distance-to-GR ledger state.
Scoped evidence
Accepted evidence is not adopted couplingThe Gate Chair accepted the recovery-bridge candidate only as scoped source-extension evidence/precondition. It does not adopt a coupling law, derive matter coupling, or adopt matter coupling.
Downstream
Downstream burdens remain separateEinstein-equation recovery and benchmark promotion require their own source-side derivations and protected review. They cannot be inferred from stress survival.
Human gate
Gate Chair status remains protectedThe downstream Gate Chair row remains human-gated. Validator PASS, selector routing, and website publication do not issue a protected verdict.

Snapshot metadata

What source state this page reflects.

The page imports a checked-in JSON snapshot. Normal Astro builds do not read the upstream repository or silently refresh public physics text.

Current status

Active burden

Claim boundary

Scoped evidence is not adoption.

P8-T02 ran the required final validation suite and prepared the checkpoint transaction for v11 recommendations 1 through 7. No physics claims were promoted.

Latest handoff summary

handoff-0321

P8-T02 final validation and checkpoint preparation completed. Required validators passed and the transaction routes to P8-T03 final continuation handoff.

Next recommended action

Bounded next packet

Run one bounded P8-T03 final continuation handoff packet for local research agents.

Derivation burden

The active burden remains upstream and scoped.

The active Distance-to-GR row is shown for reader orientation. It does not by itself adopt a coupling law, derive or adopt matter coupling, import stress-energy semantics, derive field equations, or promote a benchmark.

none

No active Distance-to-GR ledger burden

No Distance-to-GR acceptance criterion is asserted by this handoff.

No Distance-to-GR failure or freeze criterion is changed by this handoff.

Blocked claims

What this snapshot explicitly does not authorize.

These strings are preserved from the latest upstream handoff. They are displayed because the negative boundary is part of the reader-facing status, not an incidental footnote.
