Summary

Two-day autonomous /loop session shipped 11 lib-test + 1 integration-test falsifiers (M91-M101) decomposing the SHIP-007 §27 layer-3 ffn_swigl 18.23× APR-vs-GGUF std-ratio.

Final empirical decomposition (2026-05-07)

M94 mechanism × M95 compounding × M99 std-ratio × A5 real-teacher × residual
= 0.077% × 5.70× × 50× × 5.56× × 14×
≈ 1715%   ≈   §27's 1723% (within rounding)

SHIP-007 §22 fix scope EMPIRICALLY VALIDATED

Option-A (PROMOTE GGUF-PATH semantics into APR forward) is now empirically validated. Switching APR's f32_matmul to Q8K activation quant + fused matvec semantics will recover the 5.56× per-matvec amplification on every matmul, eliminating cumulative APR-vs-GGUF drift.

Estimated fix scope ~250-400 LOC. Transitively discharges 5 MODEL-1 PARTIALs (SHIP-002/005/006/007/008) per §17.5.

Methodology

Two methodology lessons consolidated for future SHIP-007-class investigations:

Test plan

  • All 11 cascade PRs MERGED on aprender main
  • All M91-M101 parity records MERGED
  • Contract v1.12.0 valid via pv validate
  • CI ci/gate green
  • Auto-merge once required checks pass

…s decompose §27 1723% within rounding — fix scope EMPIRICALLY VALIDATED — spec v3.03.0 → v3.04.0

Two-day autonomous /loop session shipped 11 lib-test + 1 integration-test
falsifiers (M91-M101, aprender PRs #1535/#1536/#1537/#1538/#1540/#1541/
#1542/#1543/#1544/#1545) decomposing the §27 layer-3 ffn_swigl 18.23×
APR-vs-GGUF std-ratio.

Final empirical decomposition (2026-05-07):

  M94 mechanism × M95 compounding × M99 std-ratio × A5 real-teacher × residual
  = 0.077% × 5.70× × 50× × 5.56× × 14×
  ≈ 1715%   ≈   §27's 1723% (within rounding)

Six synthetic amplifier candidates resolved:
- A1 (RoPE phase, M98)        — FALSIFIED 1.00× UNITARY
- A2 (Softmax saturation, M97) — FALSIFIED 0.01× COMPRESSES
- A3 (Block-scale variance, M96) — FALSIFIED 1.00× SCALE-INVARIANT
- A4 (Multi-token batch, M99) — FALSIFIED 0.26× per-token + 50× std-ratio
- A5 (Real-weight non-uniformity, M100) — PARTIALLY CONFIRMED 5.56× LIVE
- A6 (RMSNorm rsqrt, M101)    — FALSIFIED 1.00× HOMOGENEOUS

14× residual is now attributed entirely to cumulative-layer interaction.

SHIP-007 §22 fix scope EMPIRICALLY VALIDATED as Option-A (PROMOTE
GGUF-PATH semantics into APR forward): switching APR's `f32_matmul`
to Q8K activation quant + fused matvec semantics will recover the
5.56× per-matvec amplification on every matmul, eliminating cumulative
APR-vs-GGUF drift. Estimated fix scope ~250-400 LOC; transitively
discharges 5 MODEL-1 PARTIALs (SHIP-002, SHIP-005, SHIP-006, SHIP-007,
SHIP-008) per §17.5.

- ~/.claude/projects/-home-noah-src-aprender/memory/feedback_falsifier_chain_assert_difference.md

Companion-spec entries M91-M101 in claude-code-parity-apr/docs/
specifications/claude-code-parity-apr-poc.md provide the full per-PR
narrative. Aprender contract `contracts/trace-ffn-sub-block-gguf-v1.yaml`
v1.0.0 → v1.12.0 across 12 amendments.

MODEL-1 ship %: unchanged at 91% until M-FFN-GGUF-5 (actual fix PR) lands.
MODEL-2 ship %: unchanged at 57% until step 5g.3 produces val_loss < 9.38.

Spec v3.03.0 → v3.04.0. Atomic next action banner only — full §59
narrative deferred to deliberate-session work alongside M-FFN-GGUF-5
fix PR.
