# CREATION-LOG — track-record
## Packaging fix — 2026-07-18
- Drafted a Claude Code manifest so `claude plugin validate` can discover the package. *(Note: that manifest lives in the not-yet-published packaging workspace and is **not** part of this release — do not look for a `.claude-plugin` directory in what you installed; the release ships the root `plugin.json` as the package manifest.)*
- Retained root `plugin.json` as a compatibility mirror for existing skill-package consumers. Both manifests carry identical metadata, and the operative skill entry remains root `SKILL.md` for both packaging paths.
- This is packaging-only; no behavior fixture or pressure test was run or newly marked PASS.
## Phase 2 contract layer — 2026-07-18
> **Not published in this repo.** The artefacts listed below were drafted during the
> 2026-07-18 contract-layer pass and deliberately kept internal. None of them ship with
> this skill, and you will not find them in a clone. They are recorded here for
> provenance only.
- Drafted an evidence-bearing agent-modpack component manifest, a schema-pinned structural
runner, and a machine-readable ledger-entry schema with positive/negative fixtures.
**Unpublished** — which is why item 5 of the v1.0.0 notes below (*Zero executable code
shipped*) still holds for anything you actually receive.
- Drafted `SK-TR-P-001` and `SK-TR-N-001` as independently executable case specifications.
**Unpublished**, and both remain `not-run`; static validation is not behavior evidence.
> Convention: keep the forging history in the repo. For a calibration skill this is not decoration — the log below includes the design's own bets, written in the skill's own ledger format. If the discipline is any good, it should survive being applied to itself.
## v1.0.0 (2026-07) — initial forge
### Design inputs (public sources)
- **claude-improve** — signal taxonomy and the promotion ladder (memory → rule → prominent rule → enforced hook). Also a cautionary tale: its own docs shipped inconsistent promotion thresholds in two places, which is why this skill defines every numeric threshold exactly once (SKILL.md, threshold table) and references it everywhere else.
- **claude-reflect** — confidence-tiered actions (HIGH/MED/LOW bound to different permissions) and false-positive filters for user-message signals; fingerprint-and-count for "same pattern recurring".
- **Tetlock & Gardner, _Superforecasting_** (commandments) — triage to the Goldilocks zone; outside view before inside view; replace vague verbiage with numeric probabilities; balanced under/overreaction; don't treat the commandments as dogma.
- **Calibration-training practice** (Hubbard-style interval training) — a fixed fast-feedback probability tier lets a beginner accumulate calibration signal quickly with small samples.
- **Stateless outcome-grader pattern** — the settler sees only the artifact and the standard, never the author's explanations; unmatchable standards are marked unsettleable, not force-graded.
- **The superpowers school of discipline-writing** — rationalization tables with verbatim excuses, red-flag phrases, violation symptoms, and the meta-principle that violating the letter is violating the spirit; plus the convention of shipping a CREATION-LOG.
### Design input (anonymized, internal)
A ledger prototype ran ~3 weeks and accumulated 30+ entries; almost none were settled, the archive stayed empty, and the few completed settlements were nearly all externally driven. This is the single most load-bearing fact in the design: it turned "settlement reminders" into **forced settlement**.
The timeout three-way mechanism (settle now / mark unsettleable / one explicit extension with a new observable trigger) has, as far as our search found, **no external precedent** — it is original to this skill and is explicitly flagged as unproven. See "Design bets" below: we eat our own cooking.
### Key decisions
1. **Learning signal = reality vs. own predictions**, not user corrections — deliberate positioning; the README carries a three-row comparison against the correction-harvesting tools rather than pretending they don't exist.
2. **Forced settlement over gentle reminders** — direct consequence of the prototype evidence.
3. **Independent settler, no self-grading** — imported from the outcome-grader pattern.
4. **Single-source thresholds** — one table in SKILL.md; every other mention is a reference.
5. **Zero executable code shipped** — the optional host hook is documented as an example config only, clearly marked as not bundled. Honesty about capability over impressiveness.
6. **Language split** — SKILL.md is the operative discipline (Chinese-primary in this release); README is the public face (English). A future release may ship a full English SKILL.md translation.
### Slash-phrase candidates (final pick pending maintainer review)
- `log your bets, settle against reality` ← currently used in README
- `bet, settle, distill — on the record`
- `a predictions ledger with forced settlement`
### Open items before / at release
- [ ] **Pressure-test baseline** (discipline-TDD): run fresh-context agents through "skip the log / fudge the settlement / wait-just-a-bit" pressure scenarios, capture verbatim rationalizations, extend the rebuttal table until no new excuses appear. Planned, **not yet run** — listed here as unfinished rather than claimed, per the skill's own honesty rule.
- [x] Fill `<owner>` placeholders in README (repo URL, marketplace lines) at publish time. — done (LucioLiu), pre-release review round.
- [x] Settle the slash-phrase choice. — decided in ops review: candidate 1 (`log your bets, settle against reality`) stays as the H1 for pull; candidate 3 (`a predictions ledger with forced settlement`) moves to the GitHub About line and description opener for search; candidate 2 dropped.
