Dataset Policy

Purpose

This repository detects drift in blux-coga; it does not define or legislate reasoning behavior. The engine contract lives in the real Outer-Void/blux-coga repository, and this dataset mirrors deterministic outputs from that engine.

Current mapping

  • Engine repo: Outer-Void/blux-coga
  • Engine branch: main
  • Verified engine commit for this dataset pass: bee054ba7ce55e35fa210bf17a71aaa3e2c2d4e1
  • Package release: blux-coga 1.0.0
  • Engine line: CogA-1.0-pro
  • Contract version: 1.0
  • Schema version: 1.0
  • Export contract version: 1.0
  • Reasoning pack coverage here: default@1.0

Naming policy

Use the exact engine version naming convention everywhere:

  • CogA-<major>.<minor>
  • CogA-<major>.<minor>-pro

Lowercase coga-* paths and mixed naming are stale and should not be reintroduced.

Fixture update workflow

  1. Update or add a real ProblemSpec in problem.json.
  2. Keep metadata.json in sync with the expected engine line and scenario metadata.
  3. Regenerate expected artifacts by running the real engine through the canonical file-based path.
  4. Run python ./scripts/verify_fixtures.py.
  5. Run BLUX_COGA_REPO=/path/to/blux-coga python ./scripts/run_harness.py.
  6. Run python ./scripts/export_fixtures.py (locked canonical path: exports/blux-coga-dataset.jsonl).
  7. Update docs and schemas in the same change if fixture structure or expectations changed.

When BLUX_COGA_REPO points at a source checkout, the dataset harness treats <repo>/src as the canonical import root and still invokes the engine through blux-coga run --input ... --output-dir .... This removes reliance on older undocumented wrapper assumptions.

Determinism requirements

  • Expected artifacts must be direct engine outputs.
  • Compatibility history may be documented, but only runnable current-engine outputs should be required by the harness.
  • The repo should remain export-friendly: one fixture maps deterministically to a single export row containing problem, thought_artifact, reasoning_verdict, and metadata.
  • Deterministic export means compact JSONL with stable fixture order, stable key order, and byte-identical re-runs.
  • exports/blux-coga-dataset.jsonl is the canonical publication export artifact path.

Drift discipline

If verification shows drift, do not patch expectations casually. Re-run the actual engine, confirm the contract change, then update fixtures, schemas, export docs, and version mapping together.
