From 6b7ee6dcae29c0fbb46e0017538f9cef84c3136b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Edward Cheng-I Wu <132531341+Imbad0202@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sun, 6 Sep 2026 08:08:30 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?fix:=20Astra=20request=20compat,=20no-delegatio?= =?UTF-8?q?n=20citation=20transport,=20hedge/quota=20prompt=20repairs,=20a?= =?UTF-8?q?udit=20provenance=20(#823=E2=80=93#826)=20(#827)?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit * fix: Astra request compatibility, no-delegation citation transport, hedge/quota prompt repairs, audit provenance (#823 #824 #825 #826) #823 — OpenAI request builders (smoke entrypoint + documented example) drop `temperature`, which GPT-6 Astra rejects; the per-model effort vocabulary lives in scripts/cross_model_verification/openai_effort_guard.sh, sourced by both, and an unsupported explicit Astra value fails before curl. Hermetic fake-curl test runs both surfaces. #824 — the contained Codex citation transport rejects effort=ultra with REASONING_EFFORT_REQUIRES_DELEGATION before detection/auth/tempdir/launch on both entry paths (codex-cli 0.153.4 defines ultra as the multiAgentMode replacement). Model-independent by design. #825 — hedging can no longer rescue an unsupported claim (writer recovery tree, CER fallback row, temporal rule 5 in writer + both compiler mirrors, writer contract D2); universal prose quotas in the writer, compilers, writing_quality_check.md, academic-paper/SKILL.md, and contract D6 become diagnostics subordinate to author/venue requirements. Audit inventory corrected in place; held-out seed evals/heldout/unsupported_claim_recovery (NOT_RUN) registered. #826 — run_codex_audit.sh pins gpt-6-astra/xhigh and records both in a new sidecar `model` block; claim_audit_pipeline binds an unknown judge identity to a run-local cache key (no cross-run reuse) instead of defaulting to gpt-5.5-xhigh.

The contained Codex citation transport accepted `ultra` reasoning effort as part of its closed set at the 3.21.2 tag; #824 reverted that — `ultra` is a delegation request on the codex app-server, so the transport now rejects it with `REASONING_EFFORT_REQUIRES_DELEGATION`.

Both builders drop the sampling parameter (Gemini and compatible-provider examples keep theirs). Astra's documented API effort vocabulary (`low|medium|high|xhigh|max`) replaces the "not confirmed" wording and lives in one canonical per-model table, `scripts/cross_model_verification/openai_effort_guard.sh`, sourced by both builders; an explicitly configured Astra value outside that set now fails with `CROSS-MODEL-ERROR: invalid_astra_reasoning_effort` before `curl` runs, an unset effort still omits the field so the provider default applies, and ids without a table row stay pass-through. A hermetic test in `scripts/test_cross_model_verification_guards.py` executes both shipped builders (the smoke script and the documented Bash example located by content) against a fake `curl` and asserts the emitted JSON and that both source the guard. Astra stays provisional: request compatibility is not a bakeoff result. + +- **The contained Codex citation transport rejects `effort=ultra` instead of forwarding it (#824).** v3.21.2 added `ultra` to `ACCEPTED_REASONING_EFFORTS` in `scripts/cross_model_codex_transport.py` as an additional reasoning amount. The codex-cli 0.153.4 app-server schema (`v2/TurnStartParams.json`) defines `effort: "ultra"` as the replacement for the deprecated `multiAgentMode` — "proactive multi-agent behavior" — which is outside the transport's single-reference, no-other-agents contract. `ultra` is removed from the set, and a new `validate_reasoning_effort` step rejects it with `REASONING_EFFORT_REQUIRES_DELEGATION` before transport detection, auth access, temporary-state creation, or app-server launch, on both the wrapper-facing `verify_once` path and the direct `run_app_server` path; `max` forwarding and the provider-default (unset) path are pinned unchanged. The check is model-independent by design: this transport speaks the app-server effort enum, and per-model API vocabularies stay with the provider. This is a scope restriction, not a finding that `ultra` bypasses the disabled features, and it does not apply to a general Codex research session. No code-mode, local-tool, or network permission is widened. + +- **Independent audit launcher and claim-audit provenance no longer carry an implicit GPT-5.5 identity (#826).** `scripts/run_codex_audit.sh` launched every new audit with a hardcoded `codex exec -m gpt-5.5` and its sidecar recorded no model at all, which is why the stale pin could mislabel runs silently. It now pins `gpt-6-astra` at `xhigh` for new runs (an explicit override of the caller's project default, so a fresh-context audit never inherits a moving alias; historical records keep their actual identities) and records both in a new optional sidecar `model` block (`shared/contracts/audit/audit_sidecar.schema.json`: `requested` + `reasoning_effort`, a request, not a provider attestation); the mock `codex` in `scripts/test_run_codex_audit_e2e.py` asserts the exact model, effort, and fresh-run argv and that the sidecar matches. `scripts/claim_audit_pipeline.py` defaulted `judge_model` to `gpt-5.5-xhigh` and stamped that label into every result row and cache key whether or not that model ran; the caller must now supply the actual judge identity (effort included where it changes judgment), a missing / null / blank / `unknown` identity is recorded as `unknown` and binds the cache key to the run (the same fail-closed shape as an unknown `judge_prompt_version`: no cross-run reuse, within-run dedup kept), and a non-string identity is rejected before retrieval. Tests pin that a changed identity partitions the cache and that an unknown identity can never hit a prior run's verdict. `academic-pipeline/agents/claim_ref_alignment_audit_agent.md` and `shared/templates/codex_audit_multifile_template.md` state the same contract; frozen benchmark defaults and historical measurements are untouched. + +### Changed + +- **Writer and compiler prompts: unsupported factual claims cannot be rescued by hedging, and generic prose quotas become diagnostics (#825).** The citation-density recovery tree in `academic-paper/agents/draft_writer_agent.md` told the writer to rewrite a claim with no usable source "using hedging language" (its CER-chain fallback row said the same, so did the scored writer contract `shared/contracts/writer/full.json` D2, and rule 5 of the M3 temporal iron rule in the writer and both `report_compiler_agent.md` mirrors allowed a bare hedge when the verifying dates were absent); hedging calibrates uncertainty but cannot supply evidence, so an unsupported premise could pass as recovered. All four sites now route missing factual support to a supporting source or attribution, omission, or an explicit `[MATERIAL GAP]` for author review, and an inference or hypothesis must rest on supported premises and be distinguished from an observed finding. The universal prose quotas in the writer prompt, both `report_compiler_agent.md` mirrors, `academic-paper/references/writing_quality_check.md`, the `academic-paper/SKILL.md` anti-pattern rows, and writer contract D6 (80% TEEL as a scored dimension) are rewritten as context-sensitive diagnostics subordinate to author, venue, and discipline requirements — prompts for judgment, never rewrite gates or a pass/fail score (the exact rules are enumerated in the audit correction). Venue word limits, quote/anchor grammar, protected hedges, and revision authority are preserved. Every live consumer of the reference was checked (`academic-paper/SKILL.md`, `deep-research/SKILL.md`, both compiler mirrors, `writing_judgment_framework.md`, `academic_writing_style.md`); versioned records (README version-history entries, the skills' own changelogs) keep their original wording. `audits/harness-retirement-2026-09-model-update.md` gains an in-place post-release correction naming the exact files and rules the September scan missed (and the #823 / #824 / #826 items). A synthetic held-out scenario set for the unsupported / contradicted-claim recovery path is added under `evals/heldout/unsupported_claim_recovery/` with status `NOT_RUN`; no measured quality improvement is claimed. + ## [3.21.2] - 2026-09-06 — Model currency for Claude Fable 5.1 and GPT-6 Astra, checkpoint decision provenance, and CJK title-matching repairs ### Added diff --git a/academic-paper/SKILL.md b/academic-paper/SKILL.md index 21e96396..27f5abf6 100644 --- a/academic-paper/SKILL.md +++ b/academic-paper/SKILL.md @@ -19,7 +19,7 @@ A general-purpose academic paper writing tool — 12-agent pipeline covering all **v2.5** adds two writing quality features: - **Style Calibration** (intake Step 10, optional) — Provide 3+ past papers and the pipeline learns your writing voice (sentence rhythm, vocabulary preferences, citation integration style).

Similar lengths can be appropriate; do not introduce variation for its own sake ### Synonym Cycling -- **Pattern**: Using 3+ different synonyms for the same concept within one paragraph to avoid repetition +- **Pattern**: Switching terms for the same concept merely to avoid repetition - **Why**: In academic writing, consistent terminology is a virtue. Swapping "students" → "learners" → "participants" → "subjects" within one paragraph confuses rather than impresses -- **Fix**: Pick one term per concept per section. Repeat it. Technical repetition is clarity, not weakness +- **Possible revision**: Use consistent terminology for the same construct and distinguish terms when they mean different things. Preserve meaningful technical distinctions and the wording of quoted sources ### Binary Contrast Overuse -- **Pattern**: "Not X. Y." or "It's not about X — it's about Y." used more than twice per paper -- **Why**: This rhetorical device is effective once. Repeated, it becomes a tic -- **Limit**: ≤ 2 per paper +- **Check**: Does the contrast identify a supported distinction, or impose a false dichotomy or repetitive framing? +- **Possible revision**: State the actual relationship directly when the contrast obscures it. Keep useful, supported contrasts ### Mirror Structure - **Pattern**: Every section has the same internal structure (topic sentence → 3 evidence points → synthesis sentence) -- **Why**: Creates a template-stamped feel. Different sections serve different purposes and should have different internal rhythms -- **Fix**: Let section structure follow content needs. Methods can be procedural. Discussion can be exploratory +- **Check**: Does the repeated structure fit each section's purpose, or leave analysis missing or padded? +- **Possible revision**: Let section structure follow content needs. Methods can be procedural and discussion can be exploratory; keep parallel structures when they aid comparison or satisfy the required format --- -## E. Burstiness (Sentence Length Variation) +## E. Sentence Length and Readability ### What to Check -Good writing has **natural variation in sentence length**. Short sentences create impact. Longer sentences develop complex ideas. The alternation creates rhythm. +Match sentence length to meaning and the reader's needs. Short sentences can emphasize a finding; longer ones can explain a relationship. Similar lengths are acceptable when the passage remains clear. -### Detection Rule -If 5+ consecutive sentences all fall within a narrow word-count range (e.g., all between 20-25 words): **flag for review**. +### Review Prompt +If a passage is difficult to follow or sounds repetitive, check whether sentence structure contributes to the problem. Word-count similarity alone is not a defect and does not require revision. -### How to Fix -- Insert a short sentence (≤ 10 words) to break the pattern -- Combine two short sentences into one complex one if the pattern is monotonously short -- Read the paragraph aloud — if it feels metronomic, vary it +### Possible Revisions +- Split an overloaded sentence at a meaningful boundary +- Combine fragmented statements when this makes their relationship clearer +- Read the paragraph aloud to identify awkward phrasing; preserve accurate, readable prose even when its sentence lengths are similar -### Burstiness Targets (by section) -- **Abstract**: Moderate variation (factual, steady pace) -- **Introduction**: High variation (hook with short sentences, build with long ones) -- **Literature Review**: Moderate (steady analytical pace, occasional short synthesis) -- **Methods**: Low variation acceptable (procedural sections naturally have uniform length) -- **Results**: Moderate (short for key findings, longer for detailed descriptions) -- **Discussion**: Highest variation (short for emphasis, long for interpretation, very short for conclusions) +### Section Context +Abstracts must respect venue length and structure requirements. Methods may benefit from parallel procedural sentences; results and discussion may need different amounts of explanation. Choose the form that communicates the evidence and reasoning. --- ## How to Use This Checklist ### During Drafting (Preferred) -Apply rules **while writing each section** in the self-review sub-step (Step 2.7 in draft_writer_agent).
