|
68
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
69
|
+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

|
70

publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the

|
|
80
|
+

cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
|
|
84
|
+
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
|
|
85
|
+
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
|
|
86
|
+
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate

4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the

|
|
91
|
+
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
|
|
92
|
+
meet the following conditions:
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
|
|
95
|
+
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices

99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
|
|
101
|
+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
|
|
102
|
+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
|
|
103
|
+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
|
|
104
|
+
the Derivative Works; and
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
|
|
107
|
+
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
|
|
108
|
+
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
|
|
109
|
+
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
|
|
110
|
+
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
|
|
111
|
+
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
|
|
112
|
+
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
|
|
113
|
+
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
|
|
114
|
+
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
|
|
115
|
+
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
|
|
116
|
+
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
|
|
117
|
+
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution

notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside

|
119
|
+
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
|
|
120
|
+
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
|
|
121
|
+
as modifying the License.
|
|
122
|
+
|
|
123
|
+
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
|
|
124
|
+
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
|
|
125
|
+
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
|
|
126
|
+
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
|
|
127
|
+
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
|
|
128
|
+
the conditions stated in this License.
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
|
|
131
|
+
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
|
|
132
|
+
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
|
|
133
|
+
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
|
|
134
|
+
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
|
|
135
|
+
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
|
|
136
|
+
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
|
|
137
|
+
|
|
138
|
+
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
|
|
139
|
+
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
|
|
140
|
+
except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
|
|
141
|
+
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
|
|
144
|
+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
|
|
145
|
+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
|
|
146
|
+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
|
|
147
|
+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
|
|
148
|
+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
|
|
149
|
+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
|
|
150
|
+
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
|
|
151
|
+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
|
|
152
|
+
|
|
153
|
+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
|
|
154
|
+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
|
|
155
|
+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
|
|
156
|
+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
|
|
157
|
+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
|
|
158
|
+
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
|
|
159
|
+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
|
|
160
|
+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
|
|
161
|
+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
|
|
162
|
+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
|
|
163
|
+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
|
|
164
|
+
|
|
165
|
+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
|
|
166
|
+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
|
|
167
|
+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
|
|
168
|
+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
|
|
169
|
+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
|
|
170
|
+
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
|
|
171
|
+
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
|
|
172
|
+
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
|
|
173
|
+
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
|
|
174
|
+
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

# VERDICT

|
17
|

|
+
**Evidence-governed admission of self-evolved skills for small LLM agents.**
|
|
19
|
+
|
|
20
|
+
Self-improving agents keep an edited skill when it scores higher than its parent. With small models, repeated runs
|
|
21
|
+
of an *unchanged* skill already differ by several points, so many of those "improvements" are noise: in our
|
|
22
|
+
measurements keep-if-better admits a large share of skills that did not change at all (noise floors and gate
|
|
23
|
+
simulations in [results/tables/noisegate/](results/tables/noisegate/)). VERDICT is the package
|
|
24
|
+
that decides, from paired evidence, whether an evolved skill is really better, and records each decision as an
|
|
25
|
+
admission card.
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
> **Status:** pre-release. The `verdict` package (paired evidence, policies, evidence cards, replay, budget guard,
|
|
28
|
+
> freeze manifests; CLI `verdict`) is working and tested; the distribution name is not final (see "Release status").

```

|
+
|
|
51
|
+
## Install
|
|
52
|
+
|
|
53
|
+
```bash
|
|
54
|
+
uv sync # verdict + its dev group (pytest, ruff, the harness workspace member the tests need)
|
|
55
|
+
cp .env.example .env # only for commands that call a model or a gated dataset; nothing below needs it
|
|
56
|
+
```
|
|
57
|
+
|
|
58
|
+
From PyPI: `pip install verdict-gate` (the import name and the CLI stay `verdict`).
|
|
59
|
+
|
|
60
|
+
Requires Python 3.12+ ([uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) recommended; `.python-version` pins 3.13). Without uv,
|
|
61
|
+
`pip install .` (or `pip install -e .`) in a checkout installs the `verdict` package alone (numpy, pydantic, pyyaml,
|
|
62
|
+
jsonschema, typer), without the harness. A wheel carries the card schema and the policy, validity, strata and floor
|
|
63
|
+
configs it needs (`verdict/_data`); inside a checkout the package reads `schemas/` and `configs/` from the checkout.
|
|
64
|
+
|
|
65
|
+
## Quickstart (offline)
|
|
66
|
+
|
|
67
|
+
```bash
|
|
68
|
+
uv run python examples/quickstart.py
|
|
69
|
+
```
|
|
70
|
+
|
|
71
|
+
It imports `examples/long_format.csv` (the generic import format, [examples/README.md](examples/README.md)), then
|
|
72
|
+
decides three synthetic candidates against their parent under keep-if-higher and under the moderate policy, and
|
|
73
|
+
writes one evidence card (`card.json`, valid against [schemas/evidence_card.schema.json](schemas/evidence_card.schema.json),
|
|
74
|
+
and `card.md`). The same decision from the CLI:
|
|
75
|
+
|
|
76
|
+
```bash
|
|
77
|
+
uv run verdict compare --baseline tests/fixtures/replay/s0.json --candidate tests/fixtures/replay/c_good.json --policy configs/policies/moderate.yaml --fnoise tests/fixtures/replay/fnoise_m.yaml --out card.json
|
|
78
|
+
uv run verdict card render card.json
|
|
79
|
+
```
|
|
80
|
+
|
|
81
|
+
`verdict compare` exits with a code per decision (0 = PASS_GLOBAL; see `src/verdict/cli.py`), `verdict replay`
|
|
82
|
+
recomputes decisions for many arms, `verdict freeze` writes a freeze manifest, `verdict budget status` reads the
|
|
83
|
+
spend ledger.
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
## Tests
|
|
86
|
+
|
|
87
|
+
```bash
|
|
88
|
+
uv run pytest # all offline tests: no network (blocked by conftest.py), no API keys, no raw runs needed
|
|
89
|
+
uv run ruff check .
|
|
90
|
+
```
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
## Reproducing the results
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
None of the commands below makes a model call or needs a key; they read tracked files only.
|
|
95
|
+
|
|
96
|
+
| What | Command | Check |
|
|
97
|
+
|---|---|---|
|
|
98
|
+
| Frozen splits, configs and H48 artifacts are the ones pre-registered | `uv run python scripts/freeze_check.py` | prints `all hashes match` |
|
|
99
|
+
| E2 replication summary by provenance tier | `uv run python scripts/analyze_e2.py` | `git diff --exit-code results/outcomes/p3_e2/` |
|
|
100
|
+
| The decision core on synthetic evidence | `uv run python examples/quickstart.py` | three decisions printed, cards schema-valid |
|
|
101
|
+
| Paper tables and figure data from committed artifacts | `uv run python scripts/make_tables.py` (`make paper-tables`) | `git diff --exit-code reports/paper/` |
|
|
102
|
+
|
|
103
|
+
Every number in [results/](results/README.md) cites the run it came from;
|
|
104
|
+
[docs/plan/RUNLOG.md](docs/plan/RUNLOG.md) (thesis experiments) and [docs/research/RUNLOG.md](docs/research/RUNLOG.md)
|
|
105
|
+
(earlier NoiseGate work) give the exact command of each logged run. The paid runners (`scripts/run_*.py`) all have a
|
|
106
|
+
`--dry-run` that prints the planned runs and the estimated cost; model calls go through OpenRouter and cost money.
|
|
107
|
+
|
|
108
|
+
Not yet reproducible from tracked data: the E3 decision analysis (`scripts/analyze_e3.py`), H48 Event 1, the E8
|
|
109
|
+
evolution and H48 Event 2 read raw arm files under `runs/` (not tracked). Harness commands run from `harness/`; see
|
|
110
|
+
[harness/README.md](harness/README.md).

## Release status
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
The distribution name is still open (RUNLOG D10: `verdict` is taken on PyPI); it lives only in `pyproject.toml` and
|
|
131
|
+
`src/verdict/`, so the rename is one change. The implementation spec's `revision-eval` CLI is the `verdict` command
|
|
132
|
+
here.

A CITATION.cff will be added with the thesis title. Until then, cite MetaSkill-Evolve (arXiv:2607.05297) for the

|
137

method the harness replicates.

## Release status
|
|
114
|

|
|
115
|
+
The distribution name is still open (RUNLOG D10: `verdict` is taken on PyPI); it lives only in `pyproject.toml` and
|
|
116
|
+
`src/verdict/`, so the rename is one change. The implementation spec's `revision-eval` CLI is the `verdict` command
|
|
117
|
+
here.
