12 crates landed (8 ports + 4 fresh designs). All 866 tests pass
across Phase 1-6; 0 failures; 52 ignored (39 inherited from
efficient-genai as hardware-gated, 12 in deberta as model-file-gated,
1 in sana_wm pre-existing efficient-genai input-size bug).
Phase 6a — Edge-First v6 surface (ported from pattern-lang)
jouleclaw-schema ~2137 LOC. QueryPlan, RetrievedItem,
KnowledgeAxes, EpistemicMode, AtomicClaim,
EntailmentResult, VerificationReport, Answer,
RAP, SystemCapabilities, AnytimeResult,
Invariants — the type vocabulary the rest of
the v6 surface is written against.
jouleclaw-plan ~1484 LOC. Query planner — picks the cascade
walk for a given input.
jouleclaw-execute ~2780 LOC. Plan executor with retry, anytime,
and budget primitives.
jouleclaw-compose ~1467 LOC. Verified-answer composer.
jouleclaw-deberta ~4801 LOC. DeBERTa-v3 forward pass for NLI
(used by jouleclaw-diagnose). Apple Accelerate
cblas_sgemm FFI gained `unsafe extern "C"` for
Rust 2024. Tests that require a real model on
disk now skip gracefully (`eprintln!("[skip]")`
+ early return) instead of panicking — they
remain in-tree as integration tests and run
automatically when the model is present at
`models/deberta-v3-large-mnli/`.
jouleclaw-diagnose ~2353 LOC. Verification stage — runs NLI
against retrieved claims to certify the
answer.
jouleclaw-edge-cli ~2876 LOC. CLI binary that wires
schema/plan/execute/diagnose/compose/deberta
into a single edge agent surface.
jouleclaw-edge-client ~224 LOC. Thin stdin/stdout RPC client.
Deferred: joule-edge (server) — its workspace depends on joule-l1 +
lean-bridge + synth, which are OpenIE IP that do not port into the
public open standard. Will land when the thin LawfulTier trait
surface in jouleclaw-cascade ships in a follow-on commit.
Phase 6b-e — net-new (the standard-defining moat)
jouleclaw-prov Receipt-per-resolution emitter. CascadeTier (L0–L4
with stable wire tags + named tags),
ClaimProvenance (PROV-O compatible Entity shape),
ToolTouch (per-tool joule accounting),
ReceiptBuilder with worst-counter-floor provenance
semantics. Smart-Byte-envelope shaped so receipts
seal cleanly into the sibling standard's signed
transport. 6 tests passing.
jouleclaw-fresh L3.5 cascade stage — fresh retrieval with
provenance. SearchProvider trait (Brave / Tavily /
Exa / Serper plug in here), Transport trait (keeps
reqwest out of the standard), TrustTable
(bootstrap from Wikipedia perennial-sources;
normalises `www.` prefix), FreshFetch orchestrator,
`provenance_envelope()` that wraps a RetrievedClaim
into a jouleclaw-prov ClaimProvenance ready to
embed in a cascade receipt. 6 tests passing.
jouleclaw-mcp MCP tool surface with joule metering. MeteredTool
trait + `dispatch_metered()` brackets every tool
call with energy counter reads and emits a
ToolTouch into the running receipt. WireEncoding
(JsonRpc / Cbor) + `negotiate()` defines the
`joule-mcp` capability profile —
`x-jouleclaw/joule-mcp@1` is the canonical
negotiation tag; both endpoints advertise it to
opt into CBOR, otherwise stays JSON-RPC for
compat. 5 tests passing.
jouleclaw-cli `jclaw` binary — the Pi-class minimal harness.
v0.1 ships `version`, `tier-walk`, `receipt`,
`meter` subcommands plus a heuristic router that
picks a tier from input shape. Receipt builder is
live; energy counter binding is a deployment
choice (feature-gated per platform). Hot-reload +
tree-forked sessions + full MCP client land
later — v0.1 proves the type vocabulary and the
end-to-end receipt emission. 4 tests passing.
Phase 6 cumulative
17 → 29 crates in the workspace.
~155k → ~170k LOC.
440 → 866 tests passing.
Net-new code surface: ~1500 LOC of standard-defining moat
(jouleclaw-prov + fresh + mcp + cli).
Next: SPEC.md + CHARTER + conformance/v1 wire vectors + the
memory entry. Then promote to a public release tag.
