# v1.32 Slice 1 Audit

Date: 2026-04-09
Status: pass

## Scope

This audit covers the first bounded `v1.32` slice:

- negative-result staging support
- collaborator-memory separation seed

## Evidence

Implemented surfaces:

- `negative_result` is now a legal staging type
- `aitp stage-negative-result` now exists
- negative-result entries now record:
  - `failure_kind`
  - `failed_route`
  - `next_implication`
- collaborator memory now has a dedicated storage surface outside canonical
  `L2`
- `record-collaborator-memory` and `show-collaborator-memory` now exist

Regression evidence:

- `research/knowledge-hub/tests/test_l2_graph_activation.py`
  - negative-result staging retrieval
- `research/knowledge-hub/tests/test_aitp_service.py`
  - negative-result staging and collaborator-memory persistence
- `research/knowledge-hub/tests/test_aitp_cli.py`
  - negative-result and collaborator-memory CLI routing

Latest integrated run:

- `126 passed` on 2026-04-09

## Physicist-Facing Judgment

From the perspective of a theoretical physicist:

1. Failed routes no longer have to disappear into generic notes.
2. The system now has a trust-honest place to keep negative results before any
   canonical promotion question.
3. Collaborator-specific preference memory is now explicitly separate from
   scientific memory, which reduces one of the main architectural confusions in
   long-horizon use.

## Limits

This slice does not yet implement:

- full low-bureaucracy exploration runtime,
- richer collaborator-memory routing through topic execution,
- or full cross-session preference learning.

## Verdict

The first bounded `v1.32` slice is sufficiently implemented to treat
negative-result retention and collaborator-memory separation as landed
baseline.
