Artifacts and verification surfaces
Everything needed to read, check, or attack the result — and what each surface can and cannot prove.
| Artifact | Contents | Verification |
|---|---|---|
| Canonical paper | 19-page PDF · byte-identical Markdown · minimal arXiv PDFLaTeX zip | SHA-256 pins; CI recompiles and byte-compares all 19 rendered pages |
| Replay capsule | archived databases + verifier | 4,919 runs replayed with zero credentials and zero live calls |
| Seals and timestamps | hash manifests, tags, releases, OTS proofs | external chronology anchors on Bitcoin blocks 959483–960086 |
| Persona registry | 16 sealed sentences, construction rule, per-persona SHA-256 | sealed pre-data in registry v4 |
| Precommitted discussion | four full branches written before Phase 5 data | byte-identical to sealed hash; correction table beside the quoted excerpt |
| Dead predictions | 12 refuted author predictions | adjudicated by sealed code; published regardless of direction |
| Instance ledger | 22 process failures with causes and durable rules | every confirmatory-touching resolution went the conservative direction |
| Analysis pack | claims ledger, dependency audit, corner map, stability compendium, submission analyses | zero-call scripts over archived databases, committed with seeds |
Reproduce
git clone https://github.com/yoheinakajima/synthetic-players
cd synthetic-players/capsule
bash verify.shExpected: CAPSULE VERIFICATION PASS — 4,919 archived Phase 3-5 runs verified (4,916 confirmatory + 3 legacy diagnostics). The capsule is transactional: the checkout is restored on success or failure.
