The decisive experiment from the external review. 39 LoRA parent pairs (0.5B, 3 seeds) on three axes decorrelated by construction: conflict (contradictory conventions on shared prompts, private budgets fixed), compat (same prompts, SAME convention — overlap without conflict), and duration (weight divergence, zero conflict). Six pre-merge predictors; primary outcome = merge penalty (parent potential − merged achieved). League table (Spearman vs penalty, n=39): functional measures predict (dis_raw +0.460, epi_conf +0.446, p<0.005); geometry collapses (delta_cos +0.03, delta_l2 +0.17 n.s.); gradient alignment weak (−0.35); performance ~0. The first grid's apparent geometry win (+0.60) was an overlap/volume artifact — the compat control axis (added for exactly this) exposed and killed it: same overlap and data volume, zero penalty. Honest riders in the README: confidence weighting does not beat raw disagreement as a rank predictor (pre-registered internal prediction not confirmed; it does double the conflict/compat level contrast), and |rho|~0.45 is bounded by 0.5B merge-outcome noise (7B is the firm-up). Also: micro-batched gradient accumulation (OOM fix on the shared 16GB GPU), exact r-space LoRA-delta geometry (brute-force-verified test, 151 green), systemd-run runbook lesson (tmux dies with the SSH session scope on this box).

"""LLM-prototype tests — the pure, always-runnable parts (task generation + verifier).
|
|
|
|
The model/LoRA/merge path is heavy (downloads a base model, trains on a GPU) and is validated by the
|
|
experiment run itself, not in CI. What *is* unit-testable — and worth locking, since it is the
|
|
prototype's "reality that says no" — is that tasks are well-formed and the exact-match verifier
|
|
accepts correct answers (including verbose model phrasings) and rejects wrong ones.
