Two layers of proof: (1) COMPILE-TIME interface parity \u2014 a package-level var block binds every exported symbol (Available, Compiled, Upload, UploadVec, FwdConfig, FwdLayer, FwdFinalNorm, Reset, Prefill, (*Weight).MatMul/Free/ID, Weight{Out,In}) to a value of the DOCUMENTED metalgemm.go signature; any drift in the stub's exported surface (rename/arity/type) fails to compile and so fails the whole package. (2) RUNTIME degradation, asserted non-vacuously over multiple shapes incl. degenerate ones: Available()==false & Compiled()==false (stable across repeated calls); Upload(...)==nil for 6 shapes; UploadVec(...)==-1 for 5 lengths; Prefill(...) returns ok==false AND all-four output slices nil for 5 (P,nLayers,w,H) cases incl. large-magnitude X (no NaN/Inf, just declines) \u2014 exactly the `if !ok { return nil }` fallback internal/model/metal_prefill.go:152-155 keys on, so the stub introduces NO math divergence (model only folds the pure-Go CPU prefill state). No-math purity: (*Weight).MatMul leaves a sentinel-filled output byte-identical, (*Weight).ID()==-1, Free() on nil is a safe no-op, FwdConfig/FwdLayer/FwdFinalNorm/Reset total no-ops (no panic on benign or adversarial ids, Reset idempotent). All 5 tests PASS; go vet clean; full package go test passes with the file present. The metal-build half of 'parity' is enforced structurally by the shared `package metalgemm` clause + mutually-exclusive build tags (exactly one of the two files compiles) plus the signatures pinned here matching metalgemm.go's declarations; the fakmetal build was not exercised at runtime in this default toolchain run.",

(c) Input-driven: two byte-equal Sessions agree on the same query; changing only the query deterministically reselects a different, itself-stable working set (query is a genuine input).

The test opens a file-backed journal with an injected fixed clock, then in a loop of 64 Emits checks after EACH Emit that an independent Verify(path) -- which opens the file from scratch, exactly as a crash-recovery auditor would, with NO intervening j.Close()/j.Flush() -- recovers EXACTLY the number of rows emitted so far (exact integer equality, not >=). This simulates 'process crashes here, right after Emit returned' and asserts no committed row is stranded in the bufio buffer. A second test (TestPerWriteDurableFlush_StatsMatchDurableRows) pins the companion invariant: the producer live head Seq (Stats) equals the durable on-disk row count Verify finds, again with no Close/Flush. NON-VACUITY: if the bw.Flush() in writeRow were removed, rows would sit buffered (bufio default 4KB) and the fresh-handle Verify would see fewer rows than emitted at the early steps, failing the exact-equality assertion; the final post-Close Verify==total guard also rules out a write-nothing vacuity.

NONE of this fold lives in package metrics -- metrics only DECLARES the Arm/KPIs/Report structs (metrics.go:135-156) and the Validate(175)/ComputeGate(162) methods. A sound, non-vacuous witness of the fold must call bench.Run; but package bench imports package metrics, so a metrics-package test cannot import bench (import cycle), and re-implementing the formula in a metrics test to compare against itself would be vacuous. Honest SKIP -- the correct home for this witness is internal/bench/proofs_witness_test.go (owned by the bench-side agent). I confirmed the existing bench test TestRun_BothArmsPopulated_NoSpawn does NOT assert any of the five formulas, so the theorem is genuinely still OPEN. To avoid a faked PROVEN, the file I wrote instead soundly witnesses the metrics-side contract the fold's output depends on, without claiming to close the fold: TestKPIJSONKeysMatchTheoremDefinitions asserts the serialized Report exposes exactly the JSON keys the theorem names (kpis.tool_call_p50_ns/p99_ns/vdso_hit_rate/context_pollution_rate/tokens_per_task, top-level token_delta_pct, and the arm input keys calls/vdso_hits/quarantines/input_tokens/output_tokens/p50_ns/p99_ns) -- a real guard against tag-rename drift; TestReportFoldFieldsRoundTrip asserts those exact field values survive a marshal->unmarshal round-trip (exact for integer counters, 1e-9 tolerance for the float KPIs) and that tool_call p50/p99 equal the On arm's percentiles. Both tests PASS and the full metrics package stays green. These two tests are real and non-vacuous but do NOT prove the fold ARITHMETIC, hence the OPEN remains SKIP, not PROVEN."
