No fake pass: criticism before memory promotion

Ruby’s D10 direction uses a final critic boundary before candidate information is promoted into durable memory.

WHAT CHANGED

DATE PENDING EVIDENCE

STATUS — DRAFT SOURCE MATERIAL

## ENGINEERING PROBLEM

A plausible model answer can become durable false memory if confidence is mistaken for verification.

## CURRENT DIRECTION

The research direction separates evidence, belief, confidence, criticism, and promotion decisions.

## LESSON

A passing component or confident answer is not proof of a valid system effect.

## CLAIM BOUNDARY

This entry is based on owner-reviewed Ruby draft material, not the deeper evidence-manifest package. It does not claim AGI, consciousness, unrestricted autonomy, or a production-certified capability.

Boundary

This entry describes public-safe engineering context only. It does not publish production topology, addresses, credentials, procedures, telemetry, or exploitable configuration.
