ForgeKit OS Evidence Intelligence — All Six Charges
Shifted ForgeKit OS from a self-reported governance framework toward an evidence-derived one: a run-receipt substrate, a mechanical Access Control floor, an adaptive operating-profile classifier, a structured Crucible rubric, a real episode-closure mechanism, and a 3-stage semantic spin matcher — six Charges, each researched against real session data before a line of code, each merged independently.

Timeline
Start
Charge A — Evidence Substrate
Taxonomy, run receipts, effectiveness report
+1
Charge B — Access Control Gate
Product-risk manifest, staged-diff gate; found and closed a real session-scoping architecture gap mid-build
+2
Charge D — Adaptive Operating Profile
5-tier classifier extending the existing binary short-form rule
+3
Charge F — Crucible Instrumentation
Structured 10-category rubric, parallel wrap-structured command
+4
Charge E — Episode Closure
Verified against real 6-session alloy-quench-ticket history — found it had never actually used a lighter-weight closure
+5
Charge C — Semantic Recurrence
3-stage matcher; found the deterministic stage alone can't resolve all 3 real regression-fixture pairs — the actual reason a model stage exists

“The real prior-art finding that shaped this design: even ForgeKit's own real, closest precedent for an episode (the alloy-quench-ticket sequence) never actually used a lighter-weight closure.”
