Module 10 of the build order — interface only in the stdlib core (PLAN §67/§94, BRIEF §7/§10). lexicon and entropy see surface signals; they are structurally blind to semantic poisoning — a factually false or subtly biased claim, in clean prose, carrying no suspicious token. Catching that needs grounding against a source of truth (embedding classifier, retrieval check, LLM judge) — a model call, and models never live in this core. So this module ships exactly two things and no detector logic: - SourceGroundingCheck: the text -> Report protocol a [judge] implementation must satisfy to plug in. runtime_checkable for a coarse callable-vs-not isinstance gate; a conforming impl may be a plain function or a stateful callable holding a retriever/client — the grounding source of truth is the impl's concern, never a seam parameter. Its findings flow through disposition like any other detector's, with zero grounding-specific plumbing. - no_grounding_check (bound as DEFAULT_GROUNDING_CHECK): the pass-through default returning an empty Report. The honest scope note made structural — semantic poisoning is not solved at the text layer, and the core does not pretend to. Design choice, tested: the default returns NO finding (not an INFO "unchecked" marker). An INFO finding would flip every artifact to found and trip the quarantine_default floor in disposition, quarantining every upload for a check that never ran. The seam stays silent; the honesty lives in the contract. 8 new tests (pass-through empties, silence on semantic poison, protocol conformance incl. a stateful judge stub, and a composition test proving a plugged-in check's HIGH finding fails secure through disposition unchanged); 169 green total.

"""Tests for grounding — the semantic-poisoning seam (BRIEF §7/§10, PLAN §67/§94).

|
|
Interface only in the stdlib core. lexicon and entropy see *surface* signals;
|
|
they are structurally blind to a factually false claim in clean prose. Detecting
|
|
that needs a model call, which never lives in this core — so grounding ships a
|
|
`text -> Report` protocol plus a pass-through default, and a `[judge]`
|
|
implementation plugs in behind an extra. These tests pin the seam: the default
|
|
is silent (and honest about why), a conforming impl satisfies the protocol, and
|
|
its findings compose through :mod:`disposition` unchanged.
