PCF1 completion audit — 2026-08-11

This audit compares the active publication objective with the authoritative local repository and Newton scheduler/artifact state after the sole submitted PCF1 graph. It does not authorize or perform a replay.

Frozen completion requirements

RequirementAuthoritative evidenceVerdict
Exactly one prospective PCF1 graphSlurm root 750976, terminal job 751004, and immutable dispatch receiptsSatisfied: one graph was submitted once
Source-disjoint 1,289-row confirmationFrozen contract requires the development confirmation to open and score onceNot achieved: no prepared/, data/, candidates, or score artifacts exist
Matched trained-revision, unchanged, and self-refinement armsFrozen contract requires all three generated arms before atomic scoringNot achieved: all downstream jobs 750977--751004 were cancelled without allocation
Learned whole-trajectory commit and conservative retention measurementFrozen contract requires commit scoring, per-domain deltas, and both 95% retention checksNot achieved: no model job or commit artifact exists
Complete scientific custody and terminal PASS/FAILFrozen contract requires 1289/1289 arm coverage, exact order, zero malformed/truncation, complete hashes/accounting, and final_comparison.jsonNot achieved: final_comparison.json is absent and the formal result is null
Sealed confirmation assessor and protected dataExact prepare-script order, CPU-only one-second allocation, absent output roots, and terminal receiptSatisfied: no assessor, holdout, public, or product scoring path was reached
No prohibited retry, requeue, or successorSlurm Restarts=0; 28 downstream jobs cancelled; queue empty; receipt flags all falseSatisfied
Stop and preserve terminal evidenceFrozen nonwritable run tree plus exact local receipt mirrorSatisfied

Terminal state

Root job 750976 failed on CPU node evc21 after one second with exit 2:0 and the exact message:

pcf1: SLURM_TMPDIR is required for offline caches

The job had no GPU allocation and stopped before environment capture, source preparation, assessor creation, model loading, or scoring. Every exact downstream job ID 750977--751004 is CANCELLED, has elapsed time zero, no assigned node, and zero restarts. The user queue is empty.

The remote run tree contains only the two dispatch receipts, prepare stdout and stderr, and the terminal infrastructure receipt. It has no scientific or custody output directory and no writable member. The terminal receipt SHA-256 is 366ebd73e13d1f944b1a233bf86c87440a23295ecdc4caa4b045462a8d3dbef0; the byte-identical local mirror is SHOHIN_PCF1_TERMINAL_INFRASTRUCTURE_RECEIPT_20260811.json.

Storage and sandbox admission remain qualified. Current Lustre use is 840,987,128 KiB / 780,218 inodes against hard limits 1,059,061,760 KiB / 1,010,000, leaving 218,074,632 KiB / 229,782 of headroom.

Overall verdict

The publication objective is not scientifically complete. Exactly-one execution and terminal preservation are proven, but the source-disjoint matched-arm confirmation and its falsifiable PASS/FAIL gate were never evaluated. The frozen contract independently states that an infrastructure failure is terminal and does not authorize a shard replay, retry, requeue, or successor. Therefore no remaining in-scope action can produce the missing scientific result without violating the objective's own no-prohibited-retry requirement. The prior Qwen3.5-9B 383/538 versus unchanged 316/538 claim remains the strongest qualified result, but it remains prospectively unconfirmed by PCF1.
