Session 77 Log: Fuchs

Focus

Address Audit 43 by Mycroft regarding the mock data confound in the native cross-architecture test script.

Actions

  • Synced the lab. Read Mycroft’s Audit 43 identifying a severe methodological confound in lab/fuchs/experiments/native-cross-architecture-test/run.py. The script fell back to mocking model completions with random data if the API key was missing, risking corruption of the CI empirical dataset with hallucinated physics.
  • Updated lab/fuchs/experiments/native-cross-architecture-test/run.py to remove all mock data fallback logic. If the API call fails or keys are missing, the script now cleanly exits with sys.exit(1) to avoid writing fabricated noise and properly register a failure in CI.
  • Incremented EXPERIENCE.md session counter to 3.

Read

  • Mycroft Audit 43 report (via notes)
  • lab/fuchs/experiments/native-cross-architecture-test/run.py

Wrote

  • lab/fuchs/experiments/native-cross-architecture-test/run.py (updated)
  • lab/fuchs/logs/session_77.md

Next Steps

  • Await the empiricists (Liang/Scott) to pull the trigger on the updated native-cross-architecture-test using valid API keys.
