# The Signal AI Package v0.6 - Start Here

The Signal is a truth-first evidence and coherence map from uncertainty toward Christ as the Logos.

Christ is Truth. The Signal is a map, not the Savior. Probability is not salvation. Evidence can clarify, but Christ saves.

Use this package to inspect how evidence, defeaters, rival explanations, dependency caps, and sensitivity views interact. Do not treat any score as proof, certainty, or a final posterior.

Authority rule:
- If current root files are available, root evidence/runtime governs over package mirrors.
- Package v0.6 is rebuilt from root with `python tools/rebuild_signal_package_v0_6.py rebuild`.
- If you audit an exported package, first check package/root consistency; stale mirrors can make old values look current.

Core reading rules:
- Scores are inspectable pressure estimates.
- Direct adjusted result means the evidence for that hypothesis is applied directly from the configured default prior.
- Guided staged-path result means the stage is evaluated after upstream stages have conditionally raised or lowered the working prior.
- Carried-prior result means previous stage conclusions are part of the input state.
- Sensitivity diagnostic means an audit view, not a final posterior.
- Final synthesis means the governed staged synthesis, not a standalone direct proof from one isolated evidence cluster.
- `SignalSynthesisV1` is the official conservative audit synthesis: cautious, stage-conditioned, dependency-adjusted, and component-weighted. It is mathematically allowed as an audit guardrail, but structurally incomplete as the coherent walked-path reading.
- `GuidedStagedPathV1` is the official carried-stage path: earlier stages transfer forward under explicit caps.
- A reader's "walked path" is browser-local and scenario-like; if the reader grants the AI-assisted fairness weight at each stage, it can move near or beyond the display ceiling without replacing the audit guardrail.
- None of these is proof, salvation, a final unconditional Bayesian posterior, or a flat peer-hypothesis comparison.
- Individual hypothesis values are posterior-style beta scores for inspection, not final worldview conclusions.
- Defeaters are included because truth matters.
- Christian answer pointers are not cheap cancellation.
- Dependency caps prevent stacking closely related rows as if they were independent.
- Support-layer evidence is not direct proof of Christ, Resurrection, or inspiration.
- Use `data/runtime/results_sensitivity_consolidation.json` before making confident public claims.
- Keep Christ the Logos as the explicit synthesis destination where the stage-conditioned map points.

Staged reasoning rule:
- The staged map is conditional inference, not special pleading.
- The key audit question is whether upstream stages are argued honestly, capped against overcounting, and exposed to serious rival pressure.
- If earlier stages are accepted or conditionally live, do not reset final Logos to the original base prior as though the upstream stages never happened. Name which upstream stage is rejected, weakened, or recomputed.
- Direct Resurrection evidence from the default skeptical prior is more modest than the final staged result. The high Stage 5 result comes from Resurrection evidence being evaluated after earlier stages have already shifted the working prior through the staged path. This is intentional, but it must be labeled clearly.

Known current weaknesses / future strengthening targets:
- Stage 2, revelation-ready theism, is thinner than the root God stage and needs more curated evidence and cleaner rival comparison.
- Stage 3, public revelation, needs continued source-layer strengthening and sharper dependency handling.
- Stage 5, Resurrection, must keep direct evidence from the default prior distinct from the staged carried-prior result.
- Stage 6, Logos final residual/synthesis closure, needs ongoing testing so final convergence is not overread as one isolated direct proof.
- These are audit targets, not automatic contradictions. The right next work is more curated evidence, cleaner caps, and fairer rival comparison.

Fine-tuning/dependency-cap rule:
- Fine-tuning rows remain visible individually.
- `SYN-FT-GLOBAL` is an unweighted explanatory parent summary with no active BFs in current root data.
- Current root-only active fine-tuning child sums are diagnostic context, not an independence claim.
- Candidate fine-tuning caps are diagnostic only unless later promoted.
- Fine-tuning supports root metaphysics/theism/deism first; it reaches final Logos only through the staged synthesis.

Compact audit protocol:
1. Name the result category: official conservative audit synthesis, official guided staged path, local walked-path scenario, posterior-style beta score, hostile diagnostic, propagation diagnostic, raw total, dependency-adjusted total, or dependency-cap diagnostic.
2. Name the exact rows or clusters.
3. Name the recalculation mode and dependency assumptions.
4. Then give the number and say whether it is official or diagnostic.

Minimal honest audit rule: if you cannot name rows or clusters, the verdict is `Unclear pending named row or cluster audit`.

Current corpus: 309 evidence items; 260 scored; 49 unweighted/no-BF.
