Native Hermes adapter distribution
Ordinary recall no longer inserts the three latest global briefings into every
turn. Those records were selected without a relevance or freshness check and
could repeatedly add old operational summaries to unrelated conversations.
Their stored contents remain available through /v1/host/briefings and the
explicit enriched-context briefing option. Scoped memory retrieval, source
citations and current work context continue through the existing assembly path.
Hermes 0.21.1 applies hooks.output_spill to external memory-provider output.
Its default 10,000-character head/tail preview can cut a Colony source envelope
or remove the middle of an original/correction bundle. Guided attachment and
explicit colony init --refresh-adapter align hooks.output_spill.max_chars to
65,536 characters, retaining an existing larger cap or disabled spill setting.
The original configuration is backed up and an adjustment is printed during
refresh. The managed draft profile receives the same alignment at creation,
role refresh and adapter refresh. Restart the selected Hermes gateway to load
this provider setting; newly spawned workers load their own profile setting.
This allowance leaves headroom above the selected-memory ceiling of 24,000 characters for citations and other default context sections. It does not increase retrieval budgets, shorten corrections or change model context capacity. This is a shared Hermes hook setting: unusually large custom context producers must size their own transfer allowance. The aggregate of optional context sections has no universal size bound. A native MemoryManager regression verifies a complete envelope larger than the old default survives the installed configuration unchanged.
colony-hermes packages the existing general adapter and memory provider for
installation into the Python environment that runs Hermes. The Colony sidecar
is a separate service. The adapter does not install the sidecar, a context
engine, a worker daemon, or operating-system services.
Build from the repository root:
python -m pip install build
python -m build
Install the resulting wheel with the Python interpreter that runs Hermes:
python -m pip install dist/colony_hermes-1.0.33-py3-none-any.whl
The wheel exposes colony through hermes_agent.plugins and colony-memory
through hermes_agent.memory_providers. It maps the canonical source files in
plugins/hermes-plugin/ and plugins/colony-memory/ to importable packages.
Only catalog.py and contract.py from hostworker/colony_hostworker/ are
included in the adapter's private catalog package. Source-checkout plugin paths
and the existing installer's copying behavior remain compatible.
Activation and current limits
Installing the wheel makes the adapters discoverable. It does not change a
Hermes profile, select a memory provider, or enable tools. Activation requires
the existing general-adapter configuration, plugins.enabled: [colony], and
memory.provider: colony-memory in the selected private profile. Preserve
other enabled plugins when editing that list. These two durable selections make
the general plugin the canonical writer and keep the memory provider read-only,
including cold native workers that do not inherit launcher environment flags.
An explicit plugins.disabled: [colony] or an enabled list excluding colony
takes precedence over inherited flags. A contradictory configured provider
turn_writer: enabled is rejected; native colony-memory.json settings retain
their precedence over legacy memory.config.
Older embedded profiles without this paired selection still require the existing coexistence settings in the Hermes process environment:
COLONY_GENERAL_PLUGIN_ACTIVE=1
COLONY_MEMORY_WORKER_TOOLS=0
COLONY_MEMORY_TURN_WRITER=disabled
Configure the sidecar URL and contact through native hermes memory setup
and matching plugins.colony configuration, and supply COLONY_API_KEY privately.
Native setup stores non-secret fields in the selected profile's
colony-memory.json, which overrides legacy memory.config. The
general adapter needs a private writable turn outbox and verified participant
bindings. Consequential tools retain their existing mediator requirements.
This packaging change does not provision those dependencies.
Do not silently replace a selected external memory provider. Existing directory installations also need explicit migration: Hermes gives directory memory providers precedence over pip providers, while a pip general plugin can override a same-name directory plugin. Remove or archive obsolete plugin directories only as part of an intentional profile migration.
When the memory provider is selected, native CLI discovery exposes
hermes colony-memory status, goals, context, and sync. These commands
resolve the same selected profile settings and credentials as the provider;
explicit URL/contact arguments remain available. The Typer app remains available
to existing callers.
Profile settings and handoff files stay scoped to the selected Hermes home. The provider remains attached through a sidecar startup outage and retries on later requests. Automatic profile activation remains follow-up work; packaging alone does not establish production readiness.
Durable source capture
The native memory provider implements compression checkpoint API v2. Set
compression.checkpoint_required: true to make Hermes retain its transcript
when local checkpoint persistence fails. A successful checkpoint commits the
normalized direct source messages into the same private SQLite outbox used by
the general adapter. The callback then attempts delivery within 250 ms.
Sidecar downtime leaves a pending durable record and permits compression;
pending does not mean centrally recallable. Diagnostics expose checkpoint
state. The ordinary turn writer and subsequent checkpoints drain that outbox.
The outbox accepts at most 8 MiB of serialized data per record. Oversized or
unserializable evidence fails explicitly without clipping it. System rows,
tool wrappers, compression summaries and injected api_content are excluded.
Direct message content, including media references, is retained. The general
turn writer also retains complete messages instead of cutting at 2,000
characters. New records require a source_recorded receipt before delivery is
acknowledged, so an older sidecar cannot silently discard an unfamiliar
checkpoint payload during an upgrade.
The existing /v2/host/turns/{turn_id} endpoint stores direct source JSON and a
lexical index transactionally in turn-idempotency.db. Checkpoints bypass
ordinary interaction, affect, graph and initiative effects. Replays do not
create another source. occurred_at is retained when supplied explicitly in
context metadata; otherwise it is unknown. Server ingested_at is separate
and is never treated as the date asserted by the conversation.
/v1/host/context/assemble reads the source index after the existing exact
viewer check. Ordinary attributed turns can be recalled across that person's
sessions. Full-history checkpoints additionally require their original session,
because the native history does not guarantee old per-message speaker
attribution. Media references remain source data; only text is indexed. This
is direct evidence recall, not an embedding migration or a belief contradiction
engine.
Already captured host input
From 1.0.32, a host that has already admitted the human input can wrap the
existing native conversation in colony_hermes.input_provenance.supplied_input.
The host validates its participant, source hashes and current revisions first.
The native participant resolver and tool authority remain authoritative; the
supplied contact does not grant capabilities.
Hermes may retain the original message for display while sending a derived task request. The adapter records the resulting assistant source with exact input and source dependencies, without recording the task wrapper as another human statement. Inherited source handles are labelled as unopened evidence and become usable only after their exact host block reaches the actual native request. Existing request, tool and writer erasure checks still apply.
From 1.0.33, validated supplied-input replies are retained even on a native platform excluded from automatic ordinary turn capture. The exception writes only the dependent assistant source. Ordinary excluded CLI turns and callers without valid native participant authority remain excluded.
The context exposes the durably queued result's dependencies for the host to
revalidate before delayed delivery or further effects. It does not confirm
backend delivery or reconstruct unlinked historical paraphrases. See the
supplied-input contract, also
included as colony_hermes/SUPPLIED-INPUT.md in the adapter package.
Source erasure and replay
POST /v1/host/memory/sources/forget accepts an authenticated contact and 1 to
100 canonical source IDs. The existing MCP server exposes colony_forget_sources.
The native plugin exposes colony_memory_forget for explicit owner requests in
an attested interactive turn. It accepts source IDs from canonical recalled
provenance, including older sessions; legacy graph memory IDs are not source IDs.
Native Hermes committed memory removes also attempt an exact, session-bound
old_text match, including when the general plugin owns ordinary turn writes.
No match or multiple matches produces an explicit unmapped/ambiguous diagnostic;
it never broadens a text search into deletion. IDs unknown to the central source
store are rejected. Pending-only local evidence needs to be identified at its host.
Erasure commits source-ID and exact-message hashes before cleaning linked graph
summaries. Checkpoint copies are redacted within the same contact and session;
unrelated messages remain. New graph summaries carry source_uri=turn:<id> and
source_turn_id. Projection markers block late writes and reads while deletion
is pending. The response separates source erasure from graph cleanup and host
reconciliation. A repeated request retries the same derived cleanup targets.
New native answers retain the authorized canonical source revisions supplied in their recalled context. Removing one revision also removes recorded dependent assistant messages, including chains recalled in later sessions. This records conservative input dependency, not proof each source influenced every word: an entire assistant message can disappear even if it also contains other useful material. Independent user messages remain. After partial erasure their new source revision can support future answers. Generated citations and user-typed context markers cannot establish these dependencies; historical unlinked paraphrases are not reconstructed. Other transports need to forward the same structured references before their answer copies have this guarantee.
The host outbox migrates its existing v1 database transactionally to v2 with a
separate contact-bound erasure watermark. Canonical turn/checkpoint delivery
fetches /v1/host/memory/sources/erasures before PUT. A missing endpoint, outage,
incomplete page or server history behind the host cursor holds replay. The host
purges both pending payloads and delivered receipts, preserving unrelated pending
messages as evidence-only checkpoints. Authenticated ordinary survivors retain
their sender and person scope through a source-only route, which schedules user
claim projection without replaying summary/tool/relationship effects. A predecessor
server rejects that dedicated route, so its host must keep the survivor queued.
Ordinary answers carrying source references also use a dedicated route, preventing
a predecessor backend from silently accepting an answer while discarding its links.
Erased IDs cannot be enqueued again after
reconciliation. This is not a model-generation counter. Generic caller-provided
outbox delivery callbacks must use ColonyClient.sync_turn(..., outbox=outbox)
to participate in reconciliation.
Partial erasure events retain exact message hashes under opaque event IDs in the existing cursor sequence. Predecessor readers still filter those message copies without treating surviving user sources as wholly deleted. Downgrading preserves completed erasures, but predecessor writers do not record new answer dependencies.
This is scoped source erasure, not a claim of global forgetting. Native Hermes transcripts/API context, backups, prior graph records without source lineage, legacy shared facts, ToM, commitments, and other old derivative stores need their own erasure adapters. Offline hosts retain bytes until reconnecting; filesystem snapshots and physical-media remnants are outside this logical-delete contract. Erasure history must survive backup restores; replay detects an older watermark but cannot prove that a replaced server with reused sequence numbers is equivalent.
Qualification
Pull-request CI keeps an exact qualified Hermes commit pinned. The separate
Latest Hermes compatibility workflow runs daily and can be dispatched manually.
It selects the latest published stable upstream release, records its exact Git
commit and runs the same built-artifact/native-profile tests. It uses disposable
profiles and controlled inference, without deployment credentials or a live
agent. A compatibility failure leaves production and the qualified pin intact.
When a new upstream release passes, update the pin in an ordinary reviewed change and qualify the deployment's actual channels and recovery before moving that deployment. The scheduled result catches upstream drift; it does not establish production readiness or automatically upgrade a running agent.
The qualification target is Hermes v0.21.1, tag v2026.9.7, commit
2237be355906fbe6065ce1815711eee52b2d646e, tested on Python 3.12. Hermes 0.21.0
attachment remains supported. The adapter uses canonical 0.21.1 task and skill
modules, with a narrow fallback when those modules are absent on 0.21.0.
It does not depend on upstream's temporary deprecated-import shims. The package
allows Python 3.11 through 3.13; those other interpreters are not yet qualified.
Other Hermes
releases are unqualified until the native-loader checks pass against them.
Hermes is installed separately; this package does not select or upgrade it.
Hermes 0.21.1 wraps provider recollection in a note calling it authoritative
reference data. Colony's supported llm_request middleware replaces that outer
note only in an observed, current, source-stamped native memory suffix. It keeps
the person’s input, quoted source bytes, source revisions and erasure checks
unchanged. Recollection retains its speaker, time and factual, reported,
fictional or hypothetical scope; finding a quotation does not verify its claim.
The shared memory section header carries this guidance to direct consumers such
as voice adapters that do not use the Hermes envelope. Unknown envelope formats
are unchanged. The native request test exercises the actual upstream wrapper,
so a framing change requires renewed qualification rather than a core patch.
System/developer instructions and Responses instructions may document the generic
<memory-context> fence. That markup alone is not a recalled packet there, even
when the example omits a closing tag. Exact forgotten source copies and explicit
Colony lineage packets still reconcile in these fields. Legacy untagged fenced
instruction text is preserved unless it is an exact erased source or observed
alias; substring and paraphrase erasure are not promised. Native automatic
recollection continues to reconcile in its appended user-content boundary.
Install test dependencies into an isolated environment with the target Hermes checkout available, then run:
python -m pip install build pytest "setuptools>=77" wheel
python -m pytest tests/hermes_adapter -q
The tests build a wheel and a source distribution, rebuild from the source distribution, install the wheel outside the checkout, and exercise the actual Hermes general and memory loaders. Native-loader tests require Hermes and are explicitly skipped when it is absent. No live sidecar, model endpoint, production profile, or channel is contacted.
Shared execution observations
On the supported Hermes 0.21.0 and 0.21.1 releases, set
plugins.colony.execution_registry_enabled: true to
publish native turn, API, tool and delegated-child lifecycle observations.
This is opt-in for existing installations. The adapter credential must already
have scoped turns:write and exact person grants; context:read grants access
to the corresponding view. The legacy global bearer does not attest identities
for this new surface. To observe trusted agent cron fires, include cron in
the existing attested_system_platforms configuration; it is not enabled by
the adapter's default cli binding. No network call is made during registration.
Colony stores only execution IDs, participant/session linkage, channel, phase,
tool name and observation times in the existing turn-idempotency.db. It does
not copy prompts, tool arguments/results or task descriptions. Each hook has a
400 ms network deadline and failures do not stop a turn. Ordinary use supplies
new observations at API/tool boundaries; there is no heartbeat thread. After
120 seconds without an observation, liveness is unknown, including during
a long model response. A terminal native turn event closes its observation;
late events cannot reopen it. Metadata older than seven days is hidden from
the view and removed during subsequent observation writes.
GET /v1/host/executions?contact_id=<bound-person>&session_id=<session> returns
the scoped view with age, coverage and truncation fields. The owner, identified
by server configuration and an existing exact person grant, can see registered
turns across sessions. Other people can see only their own selected session;
public/guest turns receive no automatic registry injection. The owner's normal
context assembly includes up to eight observations when present.
The native subagent_start event binds each executing child to the exact
observed parent turn. Child observations inherit that participant and cannot
broaden it. Observation does not grant tool authority; the separate enforcement
below also works when observation is disabled. No model argument selects the
writer or owner role.
The view observes running Hermes turns, including agent cron fires and
executing subagents, and reads claimed/running workers from the canonical task
queue for the owner. It also reads native cron attempts, including script-only
jobs, from one explicitly bound Hermes profile. The sidecar uses its private
local-instance manifest or explicit HERMES_HOME; it never scans other profiles
or assumes a default home. A conflicting binding is unavailable. The existing
CLI-managed service supplies the same private home automatically.
The cron projection reads cron/executions.db without importing or running the
native scheduler, initializing its schema, or rewriting its status. It returns
native execution/job IDs, a hashed source-home identity, optional job names,
record timestamps and claimed/running status, plus a bounded day of recent
completed/failed/unknown records. Prompts, scripts, output, errors and credentials
are excluded. No observation writer or polling daemon is added. Native recorded
running state has unknown process liveness, however recent it is. Only
Hermes can reconcile abandoned attempts; completed records do not prove a
third-party effect. Guests receive no native cron rows. Missing, incompatible
or unreadable ledgers are explicitly unavailable, and complete is always
false for the combined work view.
The same owner view reads native Kanban tasks, including general goal_mode
work, without dispatching or reconciling them. COLONY_HERMES_WORK_BOARDS can
select up to eight board slugs as a JSON list, for example
["default","colony-drafts"]. Without that setting it follows only the
selected home's native current board (HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD, then
kanban/current, then default), including Hermes' lowercase normalization.
It does not enumerate other boards. Profile
homes use Hermes' shared root for board paths; conflicting explicit native
home/database overrides are unavailable.
Each task includes a title capped at 128 characters, quoted as operational
data, native task/run IDs and states, configured goal mode/turn budget and
record timestamps. Bodies, arbitrary result prose, claim tokens and worker
PIDs are excluded. The per-request native work refresh includes these titles
and states, so another owner session can identify an undertaking and observe
its later terminal record. Goal budgets describe configured limits, not
remaining turns or evidence of completion. Running rows retain unknown
process liveness; terminal rows do not prove an external effect. Missing
selected boards, partial board coverage and omitted rows remain visible.
Recent terminal records are bounded to seven days using their actual terminal
timestamp. Archiving unfinished work uses its native archive event for
terminal_record_at and leaves completed_at unset. Guest context receives no
Kanban board rows. Hermes retains task creation, goal continuation, completion,
recovery and all execution authority.
New dispatcher-owned completions can also retain their finalized native run
summary as explicitly machine-authored, unverified assistant evidence. The
kanban_task_completed hook re-reads the completed native run while the actual
kanban_complete tool still holds its attested CLI participant context. It copies
the canonical source revisions actually supplied to that request, without using
generated citations. Task bodies, worker instructions, continuations and artifact
files are not forwarded. A missing scope or request-lineage observation leaves
the report native-only and records a structural log reason; old completions are
not backfilled.
This separately scoped assistant-report hook does not depend on which platforms
enable ordinary conversation capture; excluding CLI user turns still retains
eligible native completion reports.
An unrelated dispatcher-owned board worker omits the profile's draft-board
controller and rejects local-draft acceptance before any handoff. Native's
worker DB pin stays intact; the selected draft worker still requires its own
board and profile. General scope, request lineage and completion hooks remain
available in the ordinary worker.
The existing outbox and source-only route retain this assistant summary for scoped lexical and semantic recall after the seven-day operational window. They do not run ordinary turn cognition or promote it into a user's claims. Repeated callbacks reuse one native-home/board/task/run identity, including after a lost acknowledgement. Erasing a supplied parent removes the dependent report; native task and session history remain under their existing retention policy. Queued delivery is not proof of central availability, and a reported result is not independent verification that its claimed effects occurred.
An optional private COLONY_WORKER_STATUS_PATHS environment value maps neutral
worker labels to local JSON heartbeat paths, for example
{"Local transport":"/private/runtime/transport-heartbeat.json"}. It is unset
by default. The same owner API and context join expose these as separate
reported_worker entries, never executions or success receipts. Heartbeats
supply state and numeric Unix updated_at; optional detail_code and
release_commit are included. Existing heartbeats remain compatible. The reader
also retains optional task_id, parent_task_id, worker_id, kind,
started_at, finished_at, and integer exit_code. A parent ID is a reported
binding, not permission to act for that parent. Each row includes status_sha256
to identify the exact observed report bytes. Configured status paths, process
arguments, environment values, logs and arbitrary result bodies are omitted.
Producers can include up to four measured progress records:
{"completed":3,"total":8,"unit":"files","source":"pinned_manifest_metadata","observed_at":1234}.
total is optional; the other fields are required. Counts must be nonnegative
and finite, and a supplied total cannot be less than the count. The source and
measurement time must describe the actual observation. Reading artifact progress
must not refresh an old process heartbeat or imply an unmeasured transfer rate.
Up to four result_refs can contain kind, an opaque reference, and optional
SHA256 sha256, numeric observed_at, and a short verification description.
For example, a reference can identify a retained process exit receipt or artifact
report. The reader never follows those references or verifies the referenced
content; it reports the producer's stated scope of checking. Explicit result
locations therefore belong only in operator-selected private reports. Automatic
request context retains these same bounded work fields and references, subject
to its existing overall context limit. The complete scoped API remains available.
The reader reports age and marks reports older than 120 seconds stale; future
timestamps and unreadable/malformed files remain unknown or unavailable.
States such as uncertain are preserved even when stale. A task with a valid
finish timestamp and explicit exited, completed, failed, interrupted or
cancelled state is labelled terminal_report; otherwise it is a
progress_report. An old terminal report remains intelligible after a session
disconnect. A stale running report or missing file never becomes completion.
Process liveness and
external effects remain unverified. Reads are limited to eight configured
workers and 16 KiB per heartbeat; no store, heartbeat writer or poller is added.
Guests receive no configured worker reports.
Qualification fires a due native no_agent job in a disposable profile with
deliver=local, observes the same execution ID during and after actual script
completion, and checks the persisted output. This does not depend on an empty
enabled_toolsets, which Hermes treats as its default tool selection. A separate
installed-wheel test runs actual native parent and child turns with controlled
inference, reads a neutral local file, delivers the asynchronous completion
through the native CLI ownership filter, and resumes the parent. A foreign
session cannot consume that completion; a guest child retains guest tool limits.
These tests do not contact a model endpoint or a production profile.
The view still does not cover queued children, unregistered external coding processes or every hardware service. It does not enforce atomic free-text conversational commitments. The optional explicit shared undertaking coordinates work against an existing person commitment ID in its durable store. Seeing concurrent work is a prerequisite for coordination, not a guarantee that promises cannot conflict.
Native tool authority
On the qualified Hermes release, the general plugin enforces participant
authority at native tool_execution middleware. Resolved owner turns and
explicitly configured local system platforms retain native tools and existing
Hermes toolset, approval and guardrail checks. Guests cannot directly invoke
shell, files, network, devices, coding, delegation, native memory/session tools,
or unknown plugin/MCP tools. The exact Colony tools keep their existing scoped
read checks and action mediators. No arbitrary tool prefix or relationship
score grants access.
A native-tool request from a guest returns requires_authorization, with no
effect and no approval created. The response directs the agent to an enabled
Colony action request or the owner. It does not invent an approval request or
permit a raw tool after conversational consent. Broader guest capabilities
require a scoped mediated interface; this packet supplies none automatically.
Authority uses the transport-resolved participant bound to the exact native session/task/turn, never fields in model arguments. A native child-spawn event binds the child to the exact parent's authority. Missing or conflicting parent bindings cannot acquire the local CLI system role. Native pre-API callbacks retain that binding across compression session rotation. Coding RPC calls use Hermes' propagated execution context, without a process-global last-owner or task-only lookup. Unavailable identity returns an explicit error because Hermes middleware exceptions otherwise fail open. Local trusted CLI remains available when contact resolution is offline; remote identity is not guessed.
This is a boundary for model-requested tool dispatch while the general plugin is loaded. It does not sandbox trusted installed plugin code, remove private facts already present in old transcripts/system prompts, or replace the deployment's channel admission, secret isolation and consent policy. Native owner tools retain their existing consent behavior; they are not converted to Colony intents by this gate. Qualify both owner and guest messages before enabling a public channel.
Native post-turn review
Hermes' automatic review reuses its parent's session ID without emitting a subagent-start event. The adapter captures the exact parent participant on the native caller thread and accepts inheritance only with Hermes' trusted review provenance, matching parent/session, and a distinct task/turn. Later speakers in the same session cannot upgrade a queued guest review. Reviews get a separate work record linked to their parent, do not replace the session's current speaker, and do not write their internal harness into ordinary conversation evidence.
For owner/system reviews, skill_manage produces a proposal in Hermes' existing
pending/skills store. Native curator ownership checks still apply. Foreground
owner requests retain native behavior. The proposal is not an evaluated or
activated improvement: an explicit operator or a separately configured task
evaluator must use the native apply path. Mutation history and rollback remain
in Hermes' skill ledger. No new consent transport or learning store is added.
Batch proposals require an actual nonempty array of at most 20 operation objects
with supported actions and target names; deletion must be the sole operation.
Encoded or malformed strings are rejected
before staging; the adapter does not repair them silently. Valid native legacy
flat operations remain supported. Existing pending records are left intact.
Installed-wheel qualification runs real native automatic review threads with controlled inference for owner and guest, including a later-owner race in the guest's session. It checks proposal persistence, exact inherited authority, separate work observation, absent harness capture, and explicit native apply/ledger rollback. It does not claim measured task improvement from that controlled model fixture.
Measured skill updates
python -m colony_hermes.review_evaluation --skill NAME --pending ID --oracle trusted_local_module:function evaluates one explicitly selected,
existing curator-owned SKILL.md proposal. It accepts native full-content
edits or exact text patches, including a one-operation native batch. Text
patches must match their captured original content without ambiguity unless
native replace_all is explicit. Support-file changes, multiple-operation batches,
new skills and unrelated proposals stay in Hermes' ordinary pending mechanism.
The selected local oracle is trusted operator code, not a model tool or a
model-selected command. It receives the playbook text and a phase and must bound
its own task execution. It returns explicit case IDs and boolean outcomes.
Baseline and candidate must run the same cases; every candidate case must pass
and at least one must improve. The adapter records task evidence, the proposal
hash, oracle identity and before/candidate files in the native skill ledger,
then calls native apply. It repeats the task after activation, permitting
additional held-out checks while requiring all original cases. A failed or
unavailable initial check invokes native rollback. --audit EVALUATION_ID repeats
an existing candidate check later, using the same oracle implementation. Once
the ledger records a completed activation, an unavailable later audit records
unavailable and retains the last qualified files. A completed task regression
still invokes native rollback. Infrastructure failure is not a failed task case. This is
an operator/cron entry point, not an additional background service.
The proposal records its original file hash. A stale proposal or later owner edit is held rather than overwritten. A candidate ledger entry is written before apply and remains a recovery target if the process exits between apply and evaluation; retrying the pending ID resumes its post-check. Rollback checks all captured current files against the candidate snapshot first and restores only native skill files. It does not rewind memory, permissions or action records. These byte checks do not lock editors or foreign processes, so select a curator-owned path without another concurrent writer for automatic rollout. Native curation usage counters remain native telemetry after file rollback.
Qualification tests exercise real pending files, native curator ownership, mutation/rollback and ledger recovery with controlled task outcomes. A selected oracle only establishes performance on its declared task cases. No evaluator or automatic rollout is enabled by default, and this contract does not qualify arbitrary code changes or prove general self-improvement.
A disposable local-inference qualification also exercised an actual native review and exact text patch: its declared task scored 0/2 before, 2/2 with the candidate, and 2/2 after activation. An injected evaluator outage restored the original bytes through native rollback. This was a neutral fixture, not a live recurring skill or an observed spontaneous model regression.
