+# Population search
+
+Owns deterministic round planning, realization gates, instruction-unit change,
+bounded concurrent evaluation and population selection beside the legacy GEPA path.
+
+- `population.optimize_population` is the optimizer dispatch seam. `Evaluator`
+  accepts ordered requests and returns results in the same order, with at most
+  request.concurrency active callbacks. No native runtime, inference provider or paid API here.
+- Only training observations enter planning/realization. Validation scores select;
+  never expose validation text or case IDs in generation prompts.
+- Reconstruct state from host-journal callback replay; no Python-side pickle.
+  Pending/failed callback recovery offsets and checkpoint forks fail closed.
+- Every rejection precedes evaluation, stays in round attempts, and consumes only
+  declared generation budget. Preserve deterministic IDs, stable ties and slot order.
+- Tests live beside source. Run the bridge README pytest/coverage gate and the
+  TypeScript real-process population/checkpoint conformance tests.
+
+Instruction-change v2 parses logical wrapped units, excludes ATX/Setext heading
+labels and counts repeated canonical units once per component.
+Independent rules split alike at periods, commas and semicolons; conditional and
+workflow clauses stay together. Adjacent-token features preserve directive/action
+attachment within units; unit reordering remains invariant. Canonically identical
+resource text scores zero before segmentation differences count. History rejects
+zero-distance bundles using this same metric, even with a zero novelty floor.
+Repairs may reuse their slot's content and hypotheses; attempted content is
+reserved against later slots/rounds. Report
+change heuristics as bridge-reported-v2 and retain exact generation response text
+for host binding; heuristic values are not independently host-verified.
+`boundaries.py` compiles declared preserve/require-text/forbid-text rules; validate
+seeds before callbacks and reject violations before evaluation. Free-form prose is
+unsupported. Never replace exact enforcement with proposer attestations or imply
+semantic compliance. `instruction_text.py` excludes Markdown metadata before unit
+segmentation without discarding fenced examples.
+
+Every accepted candidate gets complete validation and train passes at admission,
+including final-round candidates. Reserve the sum of both split sizes before
+planning/realization. Cache unchanged parent feedback; settled checkpoint callbacks
+replay without new trials. Sealed test has no bridge callback role.
+
+Set the session round before parent feedback and variant validation. Cached
+feedback is a prior capture, never a fresh measurement in the current round.
