Commons v0.2.0 (532d70d) grew a MUST: a runtime claiming conformance must
declare the set of commons data files it implements and publish that set with
its result. The corpus went 83 -> 89; the six new cases are scoped to
signatures/active-content.json, which this runtime does not implement. Under
1 they would be six permanent failures; under 1.1 they are not-applicable, a
third verdict distinct from 1's error.
Published shape: 83/83 passed, 6 not-applicable. The six are enumerated by
name, reported as skipped rather than passed, and stay in the denominator.
The declaration is DERIVED from the same constant the runner uses to accept a
scope (DECLARED_TABLES), so it cannot drift from what the suite actually runs
- this is what was promised to commons in reply 20260811T104628Z.
Anti-narrowing was NOT enforced by construction, contrary to the claim in the
reply. Measured: setting DECLARED_TABLES to the empty set turns all 89 cases
not-applicable and leaves the suite GREEN with zero cases run - exactly the
exit 1.1 forbids. "Visible as a code change" describes a reviewer, not a gate.
Closed with a derived floor rather than a second hand-maintained table list
(which would be the parallel declaration we promised not to keep): a commons
table whose aliases name llm_security has registered this runtime as a
consumer per 3.1, and a registered consumer that stops declaring the table is
withdrawing a published claim. The universe of tables comes from the manifest;
membership comes from each table's own aliases. Measured: only the injection
lexicon names us, so the floor is one table and the other three carry no
obligation.
Mutation-proven, all six firing:
declaration -> [] green, 0 cases -> 1 fail (the defect above)
declaration -> wrong table 7 fail
over-declare an unimplemented one 6 fail
count_by_scope 83 -> 82 1 fail
drop a case from manifest.cases 2 fail
strip our alias registration 85 fail
Suite 2173 -> 2181 (+2 gates, +6 not-applicable), 2174 pass, 0 real failures.
The one red under parallel load was pre-compact-scan size-cap, a known timing
flake: 358 ms alone against a 1000 ms cap, 1886 ms under load. Budget untouched.

Vendored commons v0.1.0 carries a cross-runtime conformance corpus. Until now
it was measured by a throwaway script, which makes 83/83 a claim rather than a
gate - and step 4 swaps the very tables it constrains, so the measurement has
to survive into that step or it protects nothing.
Comparison is exact-within-scope per spec section 4: every listed finding must
be raised and no other lexicon finding may be. Findings are named by commons
pattern_id, which scanForInjection() does not carry - it returns our labels.
Section 3.1 permits a runtime registered in the lexicon's aliases object to
compare through it, and we are registered. Measured first, not assumed: the
map is a total bijection, 83 labels to 83 ids, no duplicates, family membership
agreeing throughout. Nothing here restates a pattern's id, severity or label,
so nothing here can drift from the lexicon.
Deliberately NOT done: adding an id field to our 83 table entries. It would
change the source file the golden gate pins by sha256, forcing a re-bless in
the middle of a behaviour-preservation measurement, and duplicate what step 4
does anyway when the table itself starts loading from commons JSON.
Case discovery is driven by manifest.cases and cross-checked against the
directories on disk, because section 1 requires every case to run and a
deleted case dir would otherwise shrink the gate silently. An unimplemented
match or scope throws rather than skips (section 4). Input bytes and sha256 are
both verified before scanning - two fixtures carry characters invisible on
screen.
Proven red-capable in both directions by mutating the subject, not the harness:
neutering one pattern failed exactly override__disregard; widening one to
[aeiou] failed 82 cases on extra findings. Source restored byte-identical after
each.
Suite 2158, 85 new. The one red in the parallel run is the known
pre-compact-scan size-cap flake (366 ms alone, 1060 ms under load).
