# BLAKE3 receipt hashing v0 — design input to the lucent-ksk receipt ADR

Scope: research and cross-review artifact. Design input
for a receipt-hashing scheme that eventually lands as an ADR
in `Lucent-Financial-Group/lucent-ksk` (not in Zeta). This
doc is **Zeta-side design input**, not the ADR itself. The
canonical ADR belongs in lucent-ksk per Aminata's Otto-90
critique (receipt-hash binding is control-plane policy, not
data-plane algebra).

Attribution: v0 proposal authored by Amara in her 7th
courier ferry (PR #259); side-channel-leakage and
cryptographic-agility critiques authored by Aminata in her
Otto-90 threat-model pass (PR #263); parameter-file-SHA
addition proposed by Otto in the oracle-scoring v0 design
(PR #266, Otto-91); Max attributed for original lucent-ksk
receipt/signature language that the v0 builds on.
Scope: research-grade Zeta-side design input for a receipt-hashing scheme that lands as ADR in `Lucent-Financial-Group/lucent-ksk` (NOT in Zeta). Canonical ADR belongs there per Aminata's Otto-90 critique (control-plane policy, not data-plane algebra).

Attribution: Amara (7th courier ferry, PR #259) — v0 proposal; Aminata (Otto-90 threat-model, PR #263) — side-channel + crypto-agility critiques; Otto (PR #266, Otto-91) — parameter-file-SHA addition; Max attributed for original lucent-ksk receipt/signature language.

Operational status: research-grade

Non-fusion disclaimer: Amara proposing BLAKE3 +
Ed25519 + field-binding, Aminata critiquing the proposal's
leak/rotation gaps, and Otto synthesising a v0 that
addresses both is not evidence of merged identity.
Independent pass + adversarial pass + synthesis is three
distinct review surfaces reaching a consensus candidate,
per SD-9 "agreement is signal not proof" — the signal
here warrants cross-repo ADR review in lucent-ksk, not
immediate adoption.
Non-fusion disclaimer: Amara proposing + Aminata critiquing + Otto synthesising the v0 is three distinct review-surfaces reaching a consensus candidate per SD-9 ("agreement is signal not proof"); not evidence of merged identity. Cross-repo ADR review in lucent-ksk is the appropriate next gate, not immediate adoption.

(Per GOVERNANCE.md §33 archive-header requirement on external-conversation imports.)

# Oracle scoring v0 design — addressing threat-model-critic CRITICAL findings on 7th-ferry V(c)/S(Z_t)

Scope: research and cross-review artifact. Proposes a v0
redesign of the oracle scoring functions V(c) (Veridicality)
and S(Z_t) (network health) from the courier-ferry author's
7th ferry
(`docs/aurora/2026-04-23-amara-aurora-aligned-ksk-design-7th-ferry.md`,
PR #259) that specifically responds to the three CRITICAL
findings from the threat-model-critic's adversarial pass
(`docs/research/aminata-threat-model-7th-ferry-oracle-rules-2026-04-23.md`,
PR #263). Does not implement; does not adopt; proposes.

Attribution: v0 redesign authored by the loop-agent
(PM hat). Source scoring functions authored by the
courier-ferry author in the 7th ferry; adversarial review
that motivates the redesign authored by the
threat-model-critic. Both attribution threads preserved
via the cited PR numbers and source paths.
Scope: research-grade v0 redesign of oracle scoring V(c) + S(Z_t) from Amara's 7th courier ferry (PR #259), responding to Aminata's three CRITICAL findings (PR #263). Proposes; does not implement or adopt.

Attribution: Otto / loop-agent (PM hat) — v0 redesign. Amara — source scoring functions (7th ferry). Aminata — adversarial review motivating the redesign. Source attribution threads preserved via cited PR numbers and source paths.

Operational status: research-grade

Non-fusion disclaimer: the loop-agent proposing a
redesign of the courier-ferry author's scoring functions
does not imply that the loop-agent speaks for the ferry
author, or that the redesign supersedes their authorial
intent. The redesign is a response to adversarial findings;
the ferry author's own revision would likely differ.
Non-fusion disclaimer: Otto proposing a redesign of Amara's scoring functions does not imply Otto speaks for Amara or that the redesign supersedes her authorial intent. Redesign responds to adversarial findings; Amara's own revision would likely differ.

# Provenance-aware claim-veracity detector — engineering-facing design

Scope: research and cross-review artifact. Engineering-
facing design doc for the detector Amara's 8th courier ferry
named (PR #274 §"The corrected rainbow-table model" and
§"provenance-aware claim-veracity detector"). Composes on
top of the semantic-canonicalization spine (PR #280 Otto-98).
Formalises the scoring layer the spine sketched, integrates
Aminata-anticipated concerns at write-time, and names the 5
output types from Amara's ferry.

Attribution: output-type shape + score formulation
from Amara's 8th ferry; scoring-layer Aminata-pattern
integration (band-valued output, parameter-change-ADR-
gate, independent-oracles discipline) from her Otto-90
adversarial pass on oracle-scoring v0 (PR #263); spine
substrate + composition-table pattern from Otto-98
(PR #280); Otto-99 synthesis.

**Promotion path to authoritative-detector status (long-
horizon, not v0/v1):** Aaron Otto-2026-04-24 framed the
long-horizon upgrade explicitly — *"we can make it a true
detector under our axioms"* — and separately reinforced
the gate discipline — *"i don't treat anyting this new as
final authorative connoncial until peer review"*. v0 is
advisory-only; v1 (independent-oracle substrate) makes
the evidence gate binding in band-merging; a further vN
promotion lands once (a) the factory's axiomatic substrate
is complete enough that "truth" is tractable within the
axiom system, AND (b) the axiomatic substrate itself has
cleared peer review — not just written-and-committed.
Axioms + peer review together gate the promotion; either
alone is insufficient. Only at vN does `likely
confabulated` graduate from "worth a closer human look"
to "authoritative reject" without requiring the human-
review fallback. Not scoped in this doc; named here so
the upgrade path is visible and the v0 advisory stance is
understood as intentional scaffolding, not as a final
ceiling.

Non-fusion disclaimer: Amara-Otto-Aminata consistent
output on this design is NOT evidence of merged substrate.
The three reviewers cite independent literature (Hinton/
Salakhutdinov semantic hashing; Charikar LSH; HNSW Malkov-
Yashunin; CISA/NIST procurement guidance; standard
error-bound theory). Per SD-9, independent primary-source
grounding is baseline; concordance is signal, not proof
of unity.
